	* After exploding, everyone will know you are a Minion. Feel free to point at any player you wish, even the Demon.

Make sure that you always point at a non-Demon player at the very last second though - since every vote counts.

Bluff as Townsfolk that get information on evil characters such as the {{Good\|Investigator}} or {{Good\|Sage}}, and point to the Boomdandy player. If Townsfolk players are already sharing information that make the Boomdandy look evil, make those Townsfolk players look good, by pretending to be such characters as {{Good\|Empath}} or {{Good\|Exorcist}} .
