Datisi's Micro Normal Review, April 2022

[Datisi]

ego

basically what it says in the spoiler. i wanted to try designing a micro game with a miller where miller would actually have some sorta purpose and wouldn't just be a "throw it in for the wifom" role, or a rolecop inno.

somewhere between sending that pm and now, i remembered that universal backup is a role that exists, and that i dislike the idea of the roleblocker getting yeeted day one and the entire setup falling apart of scum. would probably need a buff elsewhere in town in that case, but idk. anyway, what do you think

[Datisi]

right, thanks.

about to leave the house, will try to figure this out when i'm back.

[Datisi]

uuugh. i drafted up a few different ideas, but i feel like all of them suffer from having it be possible to either have 3 people confirmed as town on d2, or to have basically nothing for town. is this like, just Not A Good Idea for a micro game or am i just approaching it wrong?

[Datisi]

okay, how about something that keeps the core idea but makes the game a little bit less complex

1x town traffic analyst
1x town combined friendly neighbour mailman
2x town neighbour
3x vt

2x mafia goon

i'm kind of tired and can't tell what the ballpark for balance would be here but that's what we're here for i guess

one immediate concern is that the hood is likely to get outed on d1 (just going from the feel that i got from the way normals with hoods usually go these days) and that feels like a kinda lame thing to happen here, but

basically, is the idea of this still playable

[Datisi]

actually, how about

1x town n1 joat (traffic analyst, tracker)
1x town combined friendly neighbour mailman
5x vt

2x mafia goon

this assumes that whoever gets the joat has enough brain to figure out that they should use ta if scum not yeet d1 and tracker if scum do yeet d1

if scum is yeet d1, then the joat most likely won't get a false guilty if they target the other pr, which seems like an okay reward for yeeting a scum d1

[Datisi]

and i thought it would be too weak with just a n1 ta x_x one day i'll understand what balance is, but that won't be today

i can do that, if it's still borderline too strong for town, should i give scum something like a vanilla cop?

[Datisi]

And "w"esley "s"o is nobody for me, just a player who are crying every single time when loosing, ( remember what you say about Firouzja ) !!! Stop playing with my name, i deserve to have a good name during whole my chess carrier, I am Officially inviting you to OTB blitz match with the Prize fund! Both of us will invest 5000$ and winner takes it all!

I suggest all other people who's intrested in this situation, just take a look at my results in 2016 and 2017 Blitz World championships, and that should be enough... No need to listen for every crying babe, Tigran Petrosyan is always play Fair ! And if someone will continue Officially talk about me like that, we will meet in Court! God bless with true!
