Because I was recently in a guiser game, one that will be comped starting tomorrow and the town found guiser because of guiser tests, and the person the guiser guised joined another game and appeared in the lobby, and the guiser visited the profile of the person he is guising.
Is any of this outside game influence? It seems like it should be, as it breaks the setup.
This is OGI if someone uses it, bear. I assume this is what your mean by the OP, and this isn't even considered guisetesting. It's one of those unwritten greyish areas that is never regarded because you can never tell if the person saw that the guy who they guised left the game or not, but if caught then it's instant OGI
An easy fix for this: Once a game with a guiser in it begins, nobody can leave it until the game ends. That would be easy for lucid to code and would solve this problem because more people likely use this to their advantage without willing to admit it
IF the town mentions that the person joined another game then it is ogi. If the town had used it to know that he is guised and tried to convince others without letting them know or without asking them to check that the person joined another game then there would be no evidence to prove that the person used outside influence.
Yeah, it's a problem with the rule, not the players, so there's no real sense in punishing the people that take advantage of it. We should just encourage setup makers to stop using the role, because it sucks
yeah, any good town knows that's a possible mechanic and should slowly push on guiser without saying so. explicitly saying so IS OGI though

In the game I was in, the disguiser was playing really well until a town noticed the person he was disguising was playing in another game, and he visited their profile, and failed a guise test. It ruins the setup.
