AutoWin System and Escort

[monstermayhem436]

I just recently had a Coven All Any game as Escort, where the final 3 were Hex Master, Mafioso, and Me. The mafioso killed the Hex Master while I roleblocked them.

The autowin system kicked in, and said mafia won.

Which doesn't make any sense. As Escort, I would be able to infinitely roleblock the Mafioso, so they would never be able to kill me. So the autowin should go to me, the escort, and thus town.

It makes no sense for it to work the way it did.

If I was Transporter, autowin would kick in and give it to me. Because the mafioso would never be able to kill me. So why isn't it like that for Escort?

Hi. When a situation like this occurs, this triggers the stalemate detector, and will give the win to the role that is less likely to win.

i.e. Neutral Killing > Mafia > Town

Not precisely.

Like he said, Transporter beats Mafioso, presumably because he's capable of killing the Mafioso (if the Mafioso is fool enough to try to attack at all).

The Escort vs. Mafioso and Godfather vs. Transporter matchups are resolved in favor of Mafia because Mafia is the only side that could possibly win those matchups, no matter what mistakes either side makes.

You're probably right about the reasoning that was used for the SK vs. GF draw resolution, though.
