The Jailor or Mayor revealing on the first day has always led town to victory - in Ranked

As Mayor, waiting until the right time to reveal usually just causes everyone to panic and spam random accusations, town protective is usually dead and I have somewhat trouble lynching an evil, I usually die the next day because a town protective claim was fake, or whatever shenanigans.

Revealing on day one, however, makes me a target to mafia, I know. But, with town protective and three random towns, there is a high chance of Bodyguard, moderate chance of Lookout and low chance of Transporter, and Mafia will fear all of these things and probably won't attack me. I usually lead the town to victory, I make sure the votes are not split and I decide with valuable leads who to lynch, not just listen to non-sensical accusations, and then we usually end up winning.

As for Jailor, I usually reveal on day 1, and say who am I going to jail to confirm that I'm actually Jailor, town protective is certain to protect me with moderate chance of Lookout and low chance of Transporter, I'm fine for at least the first couple of nights. I usually match what people claim in jail with what people claim in the day to find evils, leads the townies and tell them who I'm going to execute at night, and basically do the same thing as what I do when I'm Mayor.

Anyone else agree with me that Day 1 revealing as Mayor or Jailor is the best?
