Deodat Lawson: Cotton Mather, role?

Cotton Mather: Judge.

Samuel Sewall: Reveal.

A judge has revealed themself!

We should try to reduce the number of self-confirmable Town as much as possible. I agree, which is why the Judge can only talk during the Trial Periods, so that sequence of events could not happen In that case, people will just find other ways to confirm themself as the Judge, such as speaking during a trial period on a previous day, spamming votes before revealing, etc. The Judge could also just claim during a trial period and then reveal. this is true. self-confirming roles are always difficult to work around.
