Was G first time out, not a good way to start since was too new for peeps here, hence couldnt really operate as usual. But since then, sadly not been, just jailer twice, annoyingly enough. And with my history to be whacked, I would prefered BG, that would ensure playing long enough to contribute. Can talk myself out of lynch, but not whack (especially when I made myself suspicious enough to avoid whack, I was still automatically whacked).
Wow, that just sounds exciting 
I think it's still better to ask the narrator to PICK one member randomly instead of choosing one among three names. Suppose that I give you (the narrator) three names and you give me one (who is neither the BG nor the detective). Of course I might have given you three names none of which has such a role but there's still a very good chance that I'd picked the BG/detective and this makes me go to whack the two you hadn't given to me as the recruiter

Yeah, but thats the thing, if you have 3 names, and get back 1 name you recruited from the narrator, you CANT assume its solely because they were special roles, yes it makes it slighlt more plausible, but also is mere chance. If you give 3 recruitable civilians (jailer and lawyer included) and get one of them back after narrator randomly drew from them, then doesnt suddenly make the other two BG and D. You might think that as a foolish G and act on it, but you would be hurting your own chances with quick and foolish conclusions.
What it could be used for though, is when you basically know the D (and is being protected, usually BG does that, havent noticed it once in this forum though), and the BG too, atleast have a hunch, and you put them two in the list, you know you cant get them, but what you are doing is ensuring you get the 3rd name. Which is a vocal and influential civilian you WANT on your side and would improve your chances by controlling votes (thats what I did in above scenario, BG and D was somewhat known, wanted this guy).
Or you can do a minor version of it, of the 3 names, 1 is BG, and the other 2 is two good and smart Cs who you think will be useful. Everything to improve your chances as a G. For example recruit the lawyer, have him save the subject, and see the silly Cs think that saved G is C now
If you let narrator pick for you (randomly in general, not amongst 3), then it wouldnt really be your choice or candidates, no real advantage for you as a G. Imagine if you got a foolish mofo who is already suspicious for everyone, and if by getting to know other Gs, can give it away in the thread by backing or following you in an obvious way etc?

Lol, very easy for me to remember things (and analyze or over analyze), and last time I played a game with the above role was over a year ago, and I remember every possible scenario one played with then Hence sharing ze possible mind games of it, if its to be introduced here.

I can't even remember what happened in the game that is currently in progress, never mind any previous ones.
Why don't you tell him that we'd actually figured his role out too even before he revealed it publicly on the thread?
We would have known about JBF way before that night if it wasn't for my mistake
JBF; Thing is that it would have been unfair if Tahir had decided to count Buck's vote. We revoked Aaron's too (who had voted for Bisco) and even in that case, it was Bisco who was going to get lynched.

People would be calling us geniuses until now.
Its gotten us very far.
I thought Red whacking was odd indeed, considering you basically did a semi favour to Cs, its what I usually call the best of a worst case scenario. The Gs whacking suspicious Cs for you, and making things more clear and closer to finding Gs. Instead of whacking clear or obvious civilians, or even cleared ones. So if someone gets whack, its better to the be the former type of Cs.
