每个夜晚，水手选择一名存活的玩家喝酒，两个人中的一个将陷入醉酒状态直到下一个白天结束；但水手不会死亡。（若醉酒的是水手，则水手会因被杀死或处决而死亡）
夜晚水手选择驱魔人使用能力，说书人判定驱魔人喝醉了。那天晚上，水手被憎恶袭击了，但是水手触发自身能力没有死亡。第二天，水手被处决，他再次触发能力，依旧没有死亡。
白天，造谣者发表了一条正确的公开声明。当天晚上，造谣者的技能发动并试图杀死水手。水手因为喝醉了无法触发自身能力，说书人判定水手死了。
水手选择了主谋发动能力，说书人判定水手喝醉了。第二天，水手要求被处决以“证明他就是水手”，但因为喝醉无法发动能力而死亡。
A word to the wise... If you chose a Townsfolk at night, you are probably sober. If you chose an Outsider, Minion, or Demon, you are probably drunk. The Sailor's ability to stay alive is extremely powerful, and the Storyteller will usually take every opportunity to make the good team pay for that, by making Townsfolk drunk wherever possible, and by making you drunk whenever you choose a non-Townsfolk.
Pick players that you'd like to see drunk, such as players that you suspect of being evil, or Townsfolk that are currently less useful than others. A drunk Grandmother or a drunk Fool are probably going to be less harmful than a drunk Exorcist or a drunk Courtier.
Maximize your survivability by going out of your way to make other players drunk. If you keep choosing Townsfolk, particularly powerful Townsfolk, you can survive until the final day much more easily than other players.
Tell players who you have chosen at night so they know they might be drunk. This is crucial. For example, a drunk Innkeeper will need to know that it is possible that their ability didn't work the night when there were no deaths, or the drunk Chambermaid will need to know that their information might be false.
Communicate with other players to find good candidates to make drunk. You won't want to be hitting the bars with any old Tom, Dick, or Harry... you're the distinguished sort. If you can find out which players are which characters, you'll be able to work as a team better. Drunker, but better.
You can prove that you are the Sailor by deliberately getting executed. If you are sober, you won't die. From this point on, if the group is convinced that you are indeed the Sailor and not simply protected by the Devil's Advocate, then you should be able to stay alive until the final day, which gives the good team a drastically increased chance of finding the Demon. After all... they know it's not you.
Unlike a real Sailor, you will probably die if you are executed! Unless you have a wily Devil's Advocate helping you out, it's probably best to avoid getting yourself killed just to prove a point. Some towns will be particularly gung ho about this, so approach with caution and give your group better options to kill that day.
Try to convince powerful characters that they are drunk because of you. If someone has just revealed they are the Tea Lady who is suspicious of an evil neighbour? Well oh no! You've been picking them every night, so it's probably why their ability didn't work. Even the possibility that they were drunk will shake up a good player's convictions.
Use your "caused drunkenness" to cover for other evil players. For example, if a Minion is bluffing as the Chambermaid and pulls out a number that doesn't gel with what the town knows? Well, they were drunk, of course - no wonder they got it all wrong!
