It's not optimal to protect the cop every night, it's optimal to ensure the cop stays alive. See the difference? This whole game relies on mindgames - as a doctor, you know they know you're going to protect the cop every night, because that's what seems like the best thing to do is. This illusion of protection has the same effect as actual protection - only the truly insightful and the completely fucking new will ever target a cop for a night kill when they know a doctor's in the game. Missing a target is a massive mafia disadvantage.

KT played suboptimally and Nermy threw up a hail Mary to take advantage of it. wtf? You make it sound like Nermy knew KT wasn't protecting you. Nermy picked you pretty much at random.

I don't get why you're so upset about KT. pulling a stunt that could've worked for not being optimal play, but saying nothing about how suboptimal for Nermy it is to even target you in the first place.

Also you should play in the next game, if your ego deflates in time.
Ok answer me this: what advantage would we have gained if KT blocked a kill on MPR vs MPR dying because she protected me? If your answer is none, then she played suboptimally.

Protip: knowing 3 of 4 roles is the same as knowing 2 of 3.
