	* Claim that you are the same character as the good twin. On the first night, you learn the character of the good twin, and they learn yours. This is a hint to help you know a character that is safe to bluff as. Obviously, as you bluff as this character, the good twin will also be claiming to be this character, so you will double up. However, since the good twin will be screaming that you are evil anyway, both of you claiming to be the same character is not incriminating you any further. In fact, bluffing as their character is the safest option - if you bluff as a different character and that character is already in play, then the good players will be certain that you are evil. For example, the good twin is the {{Good\|Clockmaker}}, and the Evil Twin bluffs as the {{Good\|Clockmaker}} too - the good players know that one of the {{Good\|Clockmaker}}s are evil, but not which one. In the next game, the good twin is the {{Good\|Klutz}}, but the Evil Twin bluffs as the {{Good\|Juggler}} - the real {{Good\|Juggler}} reveals who they are, and since the good players know that one of the twins is evil, they execute the one claiming to be the {{Good\|Juggler}}, because they also know that one of the {{Good\|Juggler}}s is evil.		* Claim that you are the same character as the good twin.

	* Be passionate, not relaxed. Sometimes it is perfectly ok for a good player to die, so it is perfectly ok for an evil player to play it cool and pretend to not care about being executed. Such is not the case with pretending to be the good twin. Since the game ~~end~~, and evil wins, whenever the good twin is executed, the good twin is almost always very vocal and insistent that they do not be executed under any circumstances. Their situation is much like the {{Good\|Saint}}, in [[Trouble Brewing]]. So, any Evil Twin that is laissez faire about being executed, probably will be executed, since a good twin would have protested more.		* Be passionate, not relaxed.

	* One strategy, although usually not a very good one, is to deny everything. Never claim that an Evil Twin is in play. Claim that the player accusing you if being the Evil Twin is lying. This strategy rarely works, because the good team is faced with a dilemma that has a "best" solution... either they believe that the good twin is telling the truth, and execute you (which kills a Minion), or they don't believe the good twin is telling the truth, and execute them (which ends the game and makes evil win). Since the risk of executing the good twin that is accusing you is so high, clever players will almost always execute you as the safer option.		* One strategy, although usually not a very good one, is to deny everything.

			If a Pit-Hag creates an Evil Twin during the final night, either make the other Twin the Demon player or a dead player, so that the good team is still able to win.

			It is rarely a good idea to choose a Traveller to be a Twin.
