Funky dousing/ignite mechanics happening with multiple arsos in game

[spiderweb]

I was a PB who visited an illusionist N1. Nobody else except for them showed plagued after the night finished, which means nobody could've visited me N1 (other than the illusionist).

The next night, to my great surprise I was ignited by an arsonist. Now, it turned out there were actually 3 arsonists in the game. One of them later told me they had doused me N2, and obviously another one ignited the same night.

This should not be possible. It clearly states on the arsonist ignite button: Ignite all PREVIOUSLY doused targets at night. PREVIOUSLY i.e. not doused the same night.

If this was a bug, please fix it. If intentional, please make that clear on the card.

FWIW I don't think it should be possible for one arsonist to douse and another ignite that doused target in the same night.

I believe Ignite has a lower priority than active douse.

Its always worked like this, whenever i get arso i always ignite on N1 to check to see if i have a silent partner. Thats why town always freak out when there multiples because its a strong combo.

Igniting n1 have a lot of issues though:
- you run the risk of arsonists being full focused by town, giving less attention to coven (who will definitely profit)
- if you are unlucky, you are just wasting your n1, which make your win condition harder to achieve
- you also run the risk of arsos killing eachother n1 if another arso visit you, before any chance at coordinating.

Arsonist's strength is to be a silent surprise nuke, which usualy means waiting enough time before igniting. In a case of multiple arsonists, it is usually better to wait for one arso to douse the other, then start coordinating while not forgeting to clean yourselves. Another thing, if multiple arsos are aware of their allies, one of them (usually someone town already suspect) can become a kamikaze arsonist and kill faster (including himself), while other arso stay safe and clean himself, if the 1st arso believe the other arso can carry the win.
