Spoiler:
You were one of the ones I was most scared of tbh. I was really stressing about you NOT pointing out anything about my vote on you when you pointed out everyone elses as bad. It was really scary being up against people I knew to be really good scumhunters.


Not even sure if that should be in spoiler really but yeah...

Radja please get a better reviewer next time :P someone like mastin2
The jailkeeper can't prevent the evolving, because the Moonstone is ascetic.
He could block kills, the tracker or the smoker. 2 out of 3 of those are scum roles. So I disagree :P

Either way, my first priority is a fun game, which I think it is. There's too many variables to balance a game.
What if the Moonstone dies on day 1. What if the strongman dies on day 1. Both roles have a huge effect for scum/town. In the end, it's all about who plays the better game. So I don't mind having a game not right in the middle.
Yes but when balancing you don't take into account what happens if scum fuck up day 1 and lose their strongman then they absolutely deserve to be destroyed by town. Vice versa if the tracker/jk get lynched day 1 then it's town's fault.

Jk can block kills but in a mini where games can be over by day 4-5, and a 2 shot strongman. The JK needs to target the right scum and needs to be alive for too long atleast day 4 which is asking too much imo.
Like I said. Balance is not my first priority when designing a game. I think the balance works pretty well here, but we can debate about that for days here. Let's just see who's going to win instead.

How can they not realise a scum ascetic is even more broken smoker + ascetic against tracker. Seriously ?

I am also really too busy to play mafia to the quality level I prefer. I should spectate. If you see me in more than one game tell me off! Also invite me to cool games to spectate. I will bring cupcakes! <3

Damn, I had Titus nailed on her entrance, and tried to JK her accordingly. And I didn't jump to conclusions about her being town as a result. Plus the whole kill the moonstone thing.
Just gotta work on being more convincing, I guess.

Titus has slipped so many fucking times on day 4. If she doesn't get lynched today I'll be fucking pissed.

In post 85, Shadow_step wrote:I honestly think town need more power in this setup. Scum have a counter to all town's PRs. A strong willed two shot cop/GS and an IC would probably be closer to balance.
Scum just called the setup broken because it's too townsided. FYI :P

To be honest I think they brought this on themselves by allowing Not_Mafia to live for so long.
