Mini 738: The Town of Merrin - Game Over

I don't mean the framer is more important than the role-blocker, I mean that he breaks the cop-doc power even further, on TOP of the roleblocker.

And Goat, sorry I de-railed your Zilla-wagon on day one.

If town lynches two out of 3 scum in the first two days, then it SHOULD be almost autowin, no matter the roles. Assuming random lynches, the odds of losing BOTH roles that mess with cop results in the first 2 days is less than one percent.

I agree - the game changed a lot after mass-claim, and it wasn't as fun.

That isn't the only reason you were lynched. You were trying to make a contradiction where there was none, and you played very scummily on day one.

I said on day 1 I thought you were scummy, but there were better lynches. I also said that if qwints flipped scum, I would have a very hard time seeing you as town.

If you were wrong, we would have been down TWO townies.

The same way my fingers "accidentally" typed "lynched" instead of "linked" and the same way every other subconscious brain-fart happens.

I agree with you that people got way too mean in this game.

... but that is why this is a game of persuasion. If you know all 3 mafia, it does no good unless you persuade half the town to lynch them.

Ah, that's interesting. You continued to "slip" and call Zilla a townie on purpose, and that was actually part of the reason I wasn't as comfortable with her lynch on day one. And when she flipped scum, it made me question the other slips, too. I think that was a very smart thing to do.

I think my "obvscum" comment in pre-game did a lot more harm than good.

It is my job to find anti-town explanation's for people's play, and their job to explain the pro-town reasons. Plus, the more people I attack, the more chances we get to test reactions.

If a player can't come up with a pro-town reason, then that is factored into the decision of who is scum and who isn't.

If a few players never get attacked, the town is missing out on a lot of information. All I'm saying is that while I did seem to attack everybody, I didn't suspect everybody equally.
