I just had a perfect game illustrating benefits of putting everyone on trial (which in ideal worls should give Town like 90% win rate).

I was a Mayor named Survivor Hunter who didn't reveal initially. n1 I was shot by a Vigilante because of the name; also a Vampire was staked by a VH. n2 I sat alone since Vampire suicided. Resurrected. Vig died from the guilt. Another Vampire was staked d3 I started to ask for roles. Some player named Lapris whispered that they were an Escort and they blocked Jimmy *something* (let's call them just Jimmy) and Mafia didn't kill (true). Also another person claimed medium - to a once dead player! It was too late to call him out n3 Third and final Vampire was staked d4 A person named Screen whispered to me that he turned into a Vigilante. Nobody got killed by Mafia and I believed the Escort. I said outloud that Mafia Killing was restrained by the Escort. I was going to just put everyone on trial starting from #1 and going down through the player list to #15 in order to either get their roles or lynch them, until there's no more Mafia except Jimmy. I started from the #1 who claimed a doubtful role (medium who I didn't see in the dead chat), he was Consort n4 and further Mafia didn't kill once. I was jailed by a sudden Jailor (he told me his name) d5 Lynched Forger d6 Lynched Janitor n6 Someone tried to douse me, so a sudden Arsonist popped out d7 Jimmy told us he was too tired and suicided. Another player left when I tried to find their role. So I didn't lynch anyone this time n7 Someone tried to douse me AGAIN, for some reason. GF and a townie suicided. d8 I lynched the person who claimed Survivor. As I was doing it, another player left. Survivor turned out to be an actual Survivor and a suicided player was Arsonist. Town won without a single Mafia kill

So many times when someone says "I roleblocked X for Y nights, Mafia didn't kill", everyone immediately lynch the suspect instead of taking their time, figuring out the rest of the Mafia and THEN lynching the Mafia Killing when there's no more scums left. This is how you play it and we won despite 4 Mafia and the Arsonist.
