on one of my greatest games I was mayor and I only had a transporter as an ally. there was a wolf left and a maf, maybe two but I made myself bait by pointing out that now i had solo lynching powers right before a full moon. I trusted the trans enough to have him swap me with the confirmed maf. I planned for the wolf to attack me and in doing so, attacking the mafioso while mafioso attacks himself.

When we woke up, it was just me, the wolf and an unknown. I lynched the unknown because I didn’t want to risk another maf being alive still and knew the wolf can’t attack that night and lo and behold, he was mafioso. So then I lynched wolf next day.

transporter is a good role to work with if you know how to play it or work with someone who is trans. It also helps if they’re willing to sacrifice themselves in the process.
