Its normal, they are always going to be boring.In post 1226, TellTaleHeart wrote:Unbalanced or boring?
But its also unbalanced.
So this was balanced around giving scum day talk? Even though two doctors and a rolecop existed?

RC wasn't really a backup doc. He was a VT. Not sure why he claimed what he did. :S- TellTaleHeart

The idea was for the rolecop to only be able to get a "guilty" on the Encryptor. I didn't think that made it too unbalanced. :S- Fire Assassin

Tbh, it was going to be near impossible after the hammer you did and ccing my doc claim for me to fall in love w voting Equinox despite RC wanting it.
RC just prolly claimed it BC it bolstered me and trapped you. RC fakes a lot. Scum should have had a roleblocker though.- Equinox

Sorry, Fire Assassin. Setup speculation is still an excellent scum hunting tool.
In my defense, I ended up reading the majority of the game; the only part I did not read was Day 1. It just happened that the strongest case against you was your claim, which didn't make sense given the other two claims on the table. As it turned out, I was right for the wrong reasons, anyway.
Speaking of which, TheDominator37, "vanilla" doesn't necessarily equal confirmation that someone is town. Some moderators will give you that result for mafia goons.- TellTaleHeart

Town were certainly lucky none of the chances they took backfired on them.
Does anyone else think the setup is unbalanced? 2 Goons vs 1 Tracker and 1 Doctor in the Matrix6 setup has a town win rate of about 43.8%. I figured my gated investigative role was similar enough to give a similar rate.- Equinox

I'm fine with opening up the mafia thread by the way .
I haven't followed the game completely.
I was glad I seemed to have left FA in a relatively good spot, to be honest I think you made it further than I would have. (But if I did make it that far, I wouldn't have claimed BP).
In case there was any doubt, replacing out had nothing to do with the players or the mod or whatever, you all were great, but I thought I could manage a micro when I signed up, but I simply wasn't having fun, simply due to the mafia-scum style of play. Posting became a chore, so I opted to replace out before my lurking became to damaging to the gamestate.
As for the set-up, I specced pretty well it seems, I was going for a doc and a weak investigative like role cop. I think the neighbours were too much though.. Although, I don't know.OrwecouldsurrenderAndletloveinvadeus

I was 100% sure Titus was town and I was town myself.
I saw no reason not to take advantage of Dom making a weird claim to force a 50/50 between the two people who could actually be scum.2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.- RadiantCowbells

FTR: dom was right because there's no way there'd be a role cop in this situation without at least one scum being guiltiable, so my being vanilla was conftown.
but I didn't want to have to argue with people about Titus's alignment because there's so much backstory to the read that trying to explain it is an exercise in futility.2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.- Titus

I was following this game. I was one of the setup reviewers, so if people think it's unbalanced, I'd like to hear about it. (But yes, RC was fakeclaiming a role more town-sided than his actual role, which is why the setup felt townsided.)
For anyone wondering, the purpose of the neighbours was to narrow the rolecop's target pool a little (on the basis that neighbours tend to be exposed as neighbours eventually, and thus make for bad rolecop targets as the result is known in advance). At least RC waited until the rolecop was dead before fakeclaiming; if not for that, it's quite possible that two townies would have got into a 1v1 and lead to an automatic Mafia win.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town - callforjudgement
