I was asked a question about the setup which I'll answer in the thread just to clear up any confusion. It is not possible for two different factions to win. If both Mimes are lynched, then the Mimes win and the game ends. If both Mafia are lynched, then the Town wins and the game ends. If the Mafia satisfy their win condition before the Mimes are both lynched, then the Mafia win. Also, if one of the Mimes is nightkilled, then it has become impossible for the Mimes to win and the other Mime (if they are still alive) will be taken out of the game.
Benmage: First, for the sake of irony. I'm going to illustrate how completely idiotic and hypocritical scumhunter is.
I thought the scum did pretty well early on and thought the mimes did a good job of not getting called mimes, but in the end I think town definitely outplayed both anti-town factions. I was especially impressed with xRECKONERx for his accurate reads and whispersilk for her clever night actions. I thought the vig claim was a clever idea and the no-lynch idea was also pretty good aside from the timing. The no-lynch was decided pretty early in the day which I think could have put town in a tough spot. It ended up working out but it could have easily gone wrong. I was also surprised that the mimes pushed for the no-lynch. I understand that they were trying to look suspicious by pushing for it (at least I think that was the reasoning) but they were risking the game on the chance that neither of them got vigkilled. Even if they survived, winning the game would have been a lot more difficult at that point. I thought this setup was pretty interesting due to the mime mechanic and would have liked to see it have a larger impact, but the game was still pretty interesting to watch in the end.
Thanks to everyone for playing! The activity was great (I never had to prod anybody and only had to replace once). I had fun watching this game. Congratulations to the town for the first ever Paris Mafia town win!
