You're the ruler on balance!

Science is almost certainally balanced.

Adding 2 VTs probably balances it.

Gosh no. That's probably the same movement away from 50% but on the wrong side.

SCIENCE is balanced the way it is.

Ot: I knoe id disagree. Even 4:8 nightless would be imbalanced.

3:7:3
2:3:2

If the top is balanced doesn't take SCIENCE to figure out the bottom one is a load of horseshit. 2:5:2 is obviously much better.

As a thought experiment just continue downwards (replace the mason with a single confirmed "Earl" in the setup). 1:3:1 is clearly more-or-less balanced. Adding a scum and a mason to 1:3:1 does not balance make.

1:3:1 is town favoured even with random lynching. Same for your 9p set up.

We know the 7p one is OK because we've seen thr figures. I'd be more inclined to have problems with G&E than this one (thoigh of course they could both be fine due to mafia power going up more than linearly.
