What did he claim initially? And when did he change it? PCM received a “You are Town Apothecary” message on Night 2. IIRC he said at the time he didn’t believe it. Some of his results (e.g. his Night 3 result on me) confirm that he is indeed Watcher. Several players (Bufftabby, DonkTimesFour, J.D., lilflower, and perhaps Normal Phase) have revealed little about their targeting or results. I view them with suspicion. @ LighterFeet - Do you know who Duckburg targeted before you substituted in? ---

And when did he change it? Nope that was someone else with a short name - I think it was the guy who was poisoned I have been consistent AIf NAF is saying he did not receive any notice that has two powers then it would be apparent that both yours and my actions on NAF did not have any effect. If NAF is reporting a warm glow and buff tageted him - that would indicate the protection role simply goes first in the order of actions and prevents other actions. ---

Doesn’t a Courtesan usually block the player that is targeted, as well as stopping Night actions against them? IIRC, which I may not.
