Yes, we’d all be feeling a lot better about this if it were Infinity but it isn’t.

There's only one person not dancing on the bloody dance floor... it's Isis.
Perhaps she feels guilt about her actions?
Ydrasse throws a javelin at her which she dodges with ease.
jessie fires her rocket launcher but Isis deflects, no problem at all.
Gloria Cleary strides in...

It is difficult to assess the balance of this setup.

This was significantly more bastard than Menagerie and I didn't love that.

I think balance wise it is incredibly hard for the scum because they are only as good as their weakest link.

just on a pure-probability basis assuming random elims its like 75% town victory on the first 2 launches?

Yeah, you can make the first 2 launches nonrandom using the strength of the numbers, but you're fully accountable for everything you do to make it different from 75%

Yeah, this. The game would be completely different if there wasn't a big scumwagon in the first phase. Having the whole game hinge on 1 weak link of 6 players is poor design. Should've caught that one in hindsight

when i spoke with hectic about the setup my thought was that 1 week deadline for the first phase (both votes) would have been pretty good
the mafia seemed frustrated by the end, and for the town... honestly the first 2 weeks is the vast majority of the game and the amount of time made it kind of an oppressive setup and kind of made the later stage a bit less of an automatic process

i was frustrated this game because i'd just come out of one of my least favourite mafia games i've played in terms of being incredibly frustrating throughout. i got a little triggered by the kind of ... underlying oppressive feel of this game where i felt like i was getting everything right, doing everything right and still couldn't advance the game (right after a game where i had an even more frustrating case of that). i may have gone a little bit too intense, so apologies if anyone was upset by that

that was an amazing town. if pooky hadn't changed him vote we would have actually won a 6 town vs 6 mafia gamestate which is... insanely good cohesion

Yep sorry hopkirk <3
I felt super bad for pushing you, and i think theres like multiple pages on the scum pt with all of us saying the same thing

You were spot on and super townie, and in a normal game you never get limmed there

Gg, agree with other people’s comments regarding the setup. Though I did think it was a cool idea, and it was a lot of fun on d2 to solve with all the info dumped onto us. Thanks for modding!

Gloria gets a promised and well-deserved apology for my tunnel on her. With tweet and skitter flipping scum, and my d1 hoopla scumread in pyp turning out to be correct, I really didn’t want to doubt myself again. I’m sorry that it made the game less fun for you, I know how it feels to get deathtunneled and it sucks.

Isis I meant what I said about being happy that you’re scum because your d1 posts were so well-written! I might just go back and read your ISO again to get some inspiration for my scumgame or something.

In general, this playerlist was a ton of fun to play with and I’d love to play with any of you again!

So it wasn’t you who did that to me then? My apologies for what I said about you post-game in that case. I just auto assumed based on the timing. Next time I’ll ask. Sorry. :facepalm:

I sincerely appreciate this and thank you. I also want to apologize for losing it on you. I could have kept that down but when I thought Flea had conceded and then you did it to me again, I just couldn’t. :oops:
