SCUM UP!

SCUM UP!
If I was a neighbour to somebody who keeps denouncing surprise attacks as scum behaviour I would surprise attack them
 
I see Vere's frustration, but that train against TP came out of nowhere, with no reasons and no one but Kyan was bothered to point it out. Also all of TPs actions align perfectly with this claim. And Natiko is in ultra scummy mode aka avoiding to do anything townie

Hi, good to see my attempts to mislead people on who I’m scummates with worked based on a lot of the guesses in here.

I’m assuming there’s a bunch more neutrals and the claims as revealed are not all true or scum is beyond fucked regardless because we do not have strong roles lol

Uzzy, if you’re town you really got to stop playing things so close to the chest. It’s one thing to keep info from scum and it’s another to not explain your thoughts or actions ever. If you’re scum though GG

Natiko it's more balanced than you think, wee is lying.
Counter: Is it more balanced against town steamrolling to a win, or is it balanced in a manner that actually helps mafia? Because as it stands we are fucked on NK options with a doctor that can protect multiple players, a cop, and a switcher misdirecting everything in the meantime.

The NK portion is probably something that needed tweaking, should've made it so the general doesn't have to be there to kill. With these kinds of games I really didn't know what would go down before the game started. Unfortunately I overestimated some stuff and underestimated others, sorry about that.

I’m just gonna blame Faddy. He knows how Monopoly went with kill range restrictions and he still signed off! Blasphemous!

Nah it's my bad, 1 month + of planning and I still didn't make it balanced.
It’s no biggie, I’m not mad about it. I don’t expect your games to be perfectly balanced. With that many moving parts it’s basically impossible. I’ve missed the mark on balance (as a runner and reviewer) in far more standard games lol

self-voting is a highly strategic manoeuvre meant for intimidation and/or pity-mongering and should never be done towards actually eliminating yourself; it is a fine & delicate instrument

Idk I'm so frustrated, Kyan is right, these extensions shouldn't have happened, they change the game completely, Uzzy would've been lynched here and not Hedin. This game has frustrated most of us, maybe it was a mistake

For what it’s worth topics are being discussed to help address the vote tool issues in future games. We know it sucks to think you can rely on it and be burned. It doesn’t help you now obviously, but don’t let it discourage you from future games.
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
Oh yeah, what’s up with the vote tool? I’ve never seen it this funky before
It’s just getting overloaded, it’s worse in larger games (RIP). There’s a few options to help, just a matter of letting Febe think on the best approach.

Yeah, I'm town

What if, say, you made a completely duff accusation, shot your credibility to pieces and wound up with your neck well and truly on the block, only for a suspicious train to start on someone who'd just claimed town armourer. Would it be OK to self-vote to make scum work harder to get their dodgy train to work with the intent of making a sacrifice move to keep the PR in play?

I might have done that once.

I would only do this if you're VERY VERY sure they're town. Town might just go back to that tomorrow and the only person you can be sure about is yourself. Helping kill yourself to save an unknown could backfire hard

I'm following but just skimming so a lot of the frustrations get lost to me. I read TP's last minute claim and it was hilarious, well done.

What team seems to be winning rn? If scum can only NK adjacent players it's gonna be rough...

Scum right now
 
If a certain player can get to china it's gonna become easier, if Tearable scans the player I think he will scan then oh man scum might win just because of that.

If you’re referring to what I think that will definitely be a boon if it happens. Navigating the NKs is just going to be a real shit show I suspect lol Even with information withheld - the precedent is there from Fanto, so you just never know.

Nope, ain't his choice.

Natiko it's more balanced than you think, wee is lying.

Damnit, I had a feeling when Salva mentioned it but despite commenting on it myself I didn't fully follow up on it.

ah I really did think you were scum, Mr. Hedin :o am sry

One should always all-out attack before they're lunched

Unfortunately I will rarely be around at the end of the day, that's usually when I get home and then I have dad and house stuff to take care of before I can check the game. I likely would have hit Kalor though if I had been around.

Idk I'm so frustrated, Kyan is right, these extensions shouldn't have happened, they change the game completely, Uzzy would've been lynched here and not Hedin. This game has frustrated most of us, maybe it was a mistake

I was disappointed but wasn't too bothered. I was thinking to myself yesterday that I just wasn't playing very well which became even more obvious when most of the chat here thought I was scum. I thought I might have had a small sliver of something in the lead up to malus getting lunched (sorry malus!) and then when that didn't pan out I had trouble latching on to anything else. I iso'd TP before I voted for him and didn't pick up on his Nat crumb at all but seems like most didn't either. Oh well, just try to do better next time.

I still think eschewing the Risk mechanics might have been the better town play but we all just wanted to have fun in the cool sandbox Geno made. Of course if I hadn't been locked in on an island I might have felt differently on that front.

Remaining scum team: wee, Reki, Kalor, and Uzzy?

Edit because I can here, not wee because Nat didn't know, so replace with Kawl.

@Geno yeah, you hand out these extensions pretty nonchalantly - i.e. I don't think there was a need for it yesterday.

My biggest leads would be Stan and Kawl. Between Kawl and LP must also be scum.

Town:
Tearable, Kalor, Zipped, Kopite, Jman (last one is still under scrutiny)
Uzzy (has me fooled if that self-defeatist attitude is faked)
Kyan (did he call out the wagon for town cred? dunno, but he seemed townie at the end)
Hawthorn (sudden swing D2, could be bussed?)
Fran, Wee (can't make up my mind, disagree with most of Fran's views, while Wee is up for me in the air)
One of Ynnek/nin is Arsonist
Vere (that reaction towards TP doesn't feel genuine)
Launch
LP
Terra, Reki
Stan & Kawl
Scum

Out of the list is Salva (spoiled).

Ok I'm back on the lunch Launch train. That swerve at EoD didn't feel genuine. I feel there was panic among Scum that there would be another Scum lunch right away in Vere so he latched onto any train that came along.

On an unrelated note: Would an "all vanilla" game be fun to play? I feel there is a need for a game where Town can't rely on PRs to save the day.

Well, you'd definitely have to discuss wether a neutral would be in an all vanilla game beforehand. Not that we ever had a controversial game that tried just that, no no. *cough* heist mafia *cough* see here at the old place. Holy shit, 2015, wow.

Thanks for the hint! I just had a look at it. I was actually thinking a survivor would be the only possible neutral in such a game, so it's funny that was a point of contention in that game.

I think it’s called Mountainous - the MU champ qualifier I had to sub into what feels like an eternity ago had that setup.

Some people prefer them! They need to be smaller though, so they don't drag on.
 

Faddy

of, having, or involving transitory whims
I’m just gonna blame Faddy. He knows how Monopoly went with kill range restrictions and he still signed off! Blasphemous!

I take no blame.

Strong kills are given for a reason. You got a Doctor claim. why isn't the Doctor dead???

Scum can also co-ordinate attacks in the day for extra kills. It felt balanced to me.

Fanto having 7 T-Rex battalions is going to be rough to deal with. I wonder if she’s going to kill jman since he only has 1 territory.
If I were her, I'd take out LP since he only has one unit, then since she can attack again due to a successful kill, go after Jman or someone else she think she can take on.

Aww -

my friend was confused by my end post in mason chat because I don't think they had checked the map yet.

LOL that probably won't stop her from attacking him if she decides too. Personally I can see her going after Uzzy or Kawl after LP.

I forgot she could do that! Damn I wonder how strong she would have been if she had been able to lay more eggs.

I liked the mechanics of the game and the mystery around them. The complexity introduced many possible alternative theories about how things worked. The game was fun to think and theorize about. I quite liked how much of the complexity was in the end just veiled - there is a plenty of normal roles and ok-ish territory bonuses out there. I expected there to be a bigger mess eventually with all the rules that had to be explained, but everything went surprisingly well in the end. Must've been a lot of work to answer all those questions though. The game was rather enjoyable, while the plays in it were sometimes the opposite.
 
Can someone confirm only ynnek territories burn? Three in a row is an ugly coincidence. I'd lunch there.
 
Kya had Southern Europe. The other two were Kenny's tho.
yeah, I just checked. No idea what's going on. Some just want to see the world burn.

Welcome Kyan, you were on my scumlist for a long time thanks to nat. Who do you think is scum?

Gorlak, the day end rebooted my reads very hard so I don't have any good reads at this point. Terra, Stan, Kawl, Reki?

LOL that's the opposite of me who got drunk as fuck and then had to end the fucking game because of when the last NA came in LOL.

I'm honestly really impressed with my work considering.

Also did not realize Masons could have a scum member on them :o I thought unless it was bastard they'd be town since it's not like a neighbor chat or siblings.
