GG, sorry for the repp out Dats but I was so far behind, I didn't want to leave but it was better if someone more invested joined in. Also as it turns out most of my reads were horrible here heh.

I think the only thing that bothered me about it was us having to bank our points on a specific player kinda made it rly snowbally the way we played
Dann was also being our rock and him getting guiltied suck and kinda blew our momentum/energy I think
But I do think I coulda gave this more attention and might have gotten a Cephir elim and I woulda went after Ali next probablyIm a dog that quacks-

yah I think Andres deserves massive, massive props for that guilty - it was really clutch and nailed the most townread scum, game would have been much closer if not for his play
gg wp all, thank you town for bringing it home! and thanks Datisi for modding, I know it's a bummer you didn't have time to write more flavor but the mechanics and game design were a lot of fun and set-up brought a nice level of additional dynamics to the game"I think I no longer believe in monsters as faces in the floor or feral infants or vampires or whatever. I think at seventeen now I believe the only real monsters might be the type of liar where there's simply no way to tell. The ones who give nothing away"-

imo the only thing that felt kinda unfair to scum is the mason finders being able to conf themselves without actually spending TPR
I like the idea but in practice it worked out as de facto masons which removed two potential miselims
Enchant/Ranger engineering a scenario to help both factions and Andres getting a guilty were players making good mechanics plays, I don't think that is a result of a broken setup. in other worlds someone with Andres role might vig a townie and the 3p isn't as effective at convincing town to help them win, by either picking the wrong player or sending a less convincing or useful message"I think I no longer believe in monsters as faces in the floor or feral infants or vampires or whatever.

To answer the question I asked Titus, in terms of investigatives there was
A 2 shot gunsmith, albeit with three false positives in the setup
2 masons who both needed to activate in order to get any benefit, who could do this no earlier than night 2, unless they managed to make it to massclaim. If one of them had flipped before massclaim, then all the utlity would have disappeared instantly.
A loyal vigilante. This is incapable of clearing someone and only worked out because andres took a risky shot that paid off.
All roles had to give scum points in order to fire, in addition to havig the above drawbacks. That reaaally does not seem like too much to me
There were a lot of protectives, but they also ran the risk of overlapping significantly on nights and wasting tpr points, particularly since the roles get more expensive to use. If the protectives ever sccessfully protected someone you'd maybe have some right to complain about the potential swingyness there"As best I can tell, jjh is some kind of wizard with mind control powers." -Jingle-

Lack of scum counterplay was literally all because of greedily saving up for the extra kill
There was literally a 5spr rolecop and a 10spr roleblocker"As best I can tell, jjh is some kind of wizard with mind control powers." -Jingle-

Rolecop could have had all the info norwe had about the mason role
How much of a different situation would it be with 3 mason claims?"As best I can tell, jjh is some kind of wizard with mind control powers." -Jingle-

Norwee, I probably agree that telling other users to fuck off should probably jeopardize a mafiascum staff position in the general case. I don't know if you are feigning unawareness of my priorities or are unaware of my priorities, but in case you are unaware, I will always choose to jeopardize my staff position to yell at transphobes because I'm a transfem woman more than anything. I have a volunteer job on this site. I quit a real job, that paid really well, to move across the country to Seattle and work in an environment where my gender identity is more consistently respected. I think I mentioned moving in my PM about not joining more games with you, but maybe I just mentioned that my life is going better. I definitely mentioned that your repeated theythemming of me is almost the only misgendering I experience in my life, including my roommate who uses they them for almost every human but me at my request.
Im not particular polite or kid gloved towards other staff members if I think they're being shitty about gender diversity which probably doesnt improve my projected tenure either. That's how my priorities are. I don't want to care, I have to.
Anyway, congrats on winning a large theme-

yeah we went for the high risk high reward play in terms of banking scum points and the high risk won out-

In TPR numbers the extra kill is probably like 600
That's a lot of activated PRs for 1 kill
You probably want rolecops to know who those PRs are and roleblocks to stop them ruining your day instead
Maybe you even want the strongman kill but that was probably overpriced"As best I can tell, jjh is some kind of wizard with mind control powers." -Jingle-

when designing the setup, there was a part of me that really, REALLY hoped scum was gonna fakeclaim mason in this game. imagine being scum and getting away with a mason fakeclaim.In post 5083, jjh927 wrote: Rolecop could have had all the info norwe had about the mason role
How much of a different situation would it be with 3 mason claims?
but alas.I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”~M-
