Board Thread:What happens in Salem/@comment-28092296-20180513021857

I was in ranked mode earlier. I'm all ready for some ranked matches, and I role Jailor. Day one comes around. There were a few "hi"s and a Survivor claim (what?) but something catches my eye, with the word "Jailor" in it. Looking at the chat, this one guy  says "I'm jailor TP/LO on me pls". My head starts thinking thoughts like: "He's probably a stupid Mafia" or "That Jester has a pretty bad strategy". Day two comes, and he's basically acting like the Town leader. So I decide that he has to be executed that night and I'll jail some other suspicious people later. I wait until night two comes around to jail him. I immidiately click on the "execute" button. The jail conversation (to the best of my memory) went like this:

I go: you're not Jailor.

He goes: have fun with no executions

I go: sure

He goes: "wtf dude im sheriff".

He goes: gamethrowing

I go: no

He goes: I was trying to get TPs on me so i could survive

He doesn't show a will for his "Sheriff" claim, so my suspicions of him being evil are even higher. I check the Jailor's deathnote to the "contradictory claim" marker and get ready for day three, minus one evil role and one stupid person that thinks that counted as gamethrowing.

I was curious to see what role he was that could lead him to claim both "Sheriff" and "Jailor" in ranked mode, where winning and losing effects your ELO score. After all, he was guarenteed to die when he claimed Jailor. So as his dead body rolled around in the "we found ____ dead in their homes last night"/"___ was killed" phase, I pay attention to when the game focuses in on his death. I waited for the game to show his role. It turns out he wasn't Jester or Mafia or Veteran or Sheriff or anything that would make logical sense.

I mean, it turns out he was....Spy?

Those 3 ELO points I lost was one of the saddest times I got punished for losing.
