Of course, there's always the risk that if an important role is known to us, they may become the target of the Dark Templars' disruption instead of being killed, thus being unable to gather additional information that night anyway. So revealing an important role is still kind of a double-edged sword.CDLVII wrote: Funny thing is... if we were to reveal that one position, knowing that his life required protection. Would the Dark Templars assume that he was shielded constantly and continue butchering our brothers? We could say they'll assume that the position is under protection, leaving us with 2 completely free cloaks.
The other side of this is that staying silent can also be a risk, as someone may die without ever getting to tell anyone the information they gathered and without having a chance to be protected.
Just adding my own opinions on the pros and cons of revealing (or not revealing) roles in general. My opinion is also that with the number of people still remaining it is probably too early for the benefit of knowing who is innocent to outweigh the drawback of the Dark Templar knowing who has certain special roles. However, knowing someone is guilty possibly does outweigh that drawback. It is still a risk, though, because the Arbiters could be dead already or if someone plans to have the HT confirm their role, there is the risk that the HT could be dead, and thus unable to confirm it.
If the Praetor is still alive, only he knows whether we even have anyone left to depend on, or if our waiting would only be in vain.
