Please don’t call 5 roles that can screw scum over when they are completely helpless scum sided.
Example literally if N_M wasn’t shot, Stalfos would have been the day 2 lynch forcing them to do the night kill on CheekyShoutout to PJ and Nahdia for making my amazing new avi :)
Following the previous dozen pages that cropped up in the last 10 hours I would like to congratulate Ginngie for being drunk with distinction. - Vi- Creature

The most optimal play night one could have literally been:
Creature gets guilty on RC
Cheeky gets guilty on Stalfos
grapes jailkeeps mastina and stops the kill
The alien rolestops Mathblade
N_M vigs camn
No kills two guilties and one scum is dead.
N2 comes around one scum is vigged who wasn't lynched with the guilty and the jail keepers block the same people, still no kill.
What would be even worse is that even in the best scum team scenario, if one still got lynched Day 1, Night 1 comes around and that same event happens with two guilties and one scum shot.
Game is literally over day 2.
So no Mulch, it's not scum sided.Shoutout to PJ and Nahdia for making my amazing new avi :)

I mean that's not a great example of why it's townsided but the game is townsided.
2 jacked investigators, 2 jailkeepers, and a vig is a lot of power; it's about enough to justify informed 9v4 imo (based on balance not quality of game: would never pass as an actual game). when you give town all those extra vts then well.
this game wasn't townsided, you getting lynched D1 then cheeky getting shot N1 was townsided2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.- Transcend

Are people seriously complaining that the setup was mafia sided when mastina clearly said that this was a mod influenced game in favor of the mafia?- Creature

With this and Night and Day, any time I see you go down as scum from now on, I'm looking for buddies bussing you.In post 3486, MathBlade wrote:Ugh and Bulba you were right it was totally fake me bussing Radiant.
Was going through RL shit and Radiant was strongly suggesting things the exact opposite of how I play as scum.
And as scum sometimes I bus sometimes I don’t.
And this is why I said Smocaine's alignment was uncertain in Surreptitious. I was sitting in the spoiled PT watching him continually tank, so when he replaced in S2, "could be that bad" was a legit option. I just couldn't say why because a.) this game was ongoing and b.) he was still alive. I'm sorry if it came off as insulting, but this game told me not to put any weight to anything Smocaine said.In post 3489, Mulch wrote: I've never seen someone as bad as Smocaine was this game, literally mislynched every person at full confidence, (got mislynched themselves?), and then has the audacity to act like an ass postgameBulbazak is so town that everytime someone votes him Mastin coughs blood.- Nachomamma8, Maniacal Street Mafia

Goons plus a special mastina shot ability

Essentially two jailkeepers

gunsmith/rolestopper/goon/goon
vs
weak vig, IC, 1-guilty cop, 2-shot vig, non-consecutive doctor
plus a 4-man all town hood (which is kind of gimmicky, and with zero investigatives in it)
The numbers of it favor town pretty solidly compared to the 13/4 norm
The double vigs (and presumably town vs scum wasn't announced) makes things a bit messy and can reasonably lead to one vig lynching the other (which I'd guess was relevant to the d1 lynch?)
Town power is HEAVILY gated and unlikely to be doing anything late game; weak vig in particular is a role that is very probably antitown (i.e. a really shitty vig can wreck the town, while an accurate vig is only gonna get one kill out of it). The 1-guilty cop is also a VERY nerfed cop, etc.
Probably the main question is how much you value the extra townies in that setup compared to the scum power (gunsmith is super claimable and actively useful to find the vigs
Town neighbors aren't PRs and aren't extra town power, so I basically count them as their role or as essentially VT's barring explcit hood coordinating power such as a cop in the hood, masonizer, etc (scum neighbors of course ARE powerful but 203 didn't have those)
If it was 13/4 instead as...
4 goons
vs weak vig, IC, 1-guilty cop, 2-shot vig, non-consecutive doctor
It'd basically be a 13/4 with five mediocre (1-guilty cop, non-consecutive doctor) to nearly useless (IC, 2-shot vig) to outright shitty (weak vig) PRs.
Passable I guess, but wolves steamrolling led by a bunch of awful vig shots seems like a super predictable potential outcome.Showhttp://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Mhsmith0
Conq: you, sir, are great at being town.
BATMAN: Only jugg was the only one we didn’t scum read at least not me
Quick: There is little to no chance this slot is Power-Wolfing.

But yeah large normal 203 had WAY less town power than this one.

weak vig and/or weak vig + 2-shot vig
two jailkeepers are useful (mastina being able to take a shot nerfs it materially, but still objectively useful)
gunsmith/neapolitan combo are objectively useful as well. Neapolitan vs a 1-guilty cop... not sure which is better, but tack on a GS too and that's substantial town power.Showhttp://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Mhsmith0
