40 player mafia game

[Alisae]

I actually did some math and 41 is the correct number
4(scum) + 1 = total players
2 scum = 9 players
3 scum = 13 players
4 scum = 17
5 = 21
6 =25
...
10 scum = 41 players

Now, if I would play is a different question

[Alisae]

Yeah, you're not accounting for potential multi-ball or serial killers. And you're definitely not accounting for the fact that, until the cult leader is killed (unless [redacted]), that scum group has the potential to grow every night.

I'll definitely get the word out with a neat write up or something.

Multiball sucks just do maf vs town

[Alisae]

My shtick is cults. Whether or not there's more than one mafia team will not be openly discussed.

ok but if you were to run a 41p singleball game
that would be way more unique then the other 40+ player games that were ran on this site
and I personally don't see the appeal behind multiball in this games other then to make the game faster
like, people hate multiball. Its impossible to balance

Multiball is fun late game, but it’s early game lasts longer than regular, which is the toughest time for mafia anyways. It really ends up always feeling like Scum vs Scum with town also ran, which is one of the reasons I allow scum to tie together when I run Multiball games, but that’s a really hard predicament for scum teams to get in so they can’t rely on it.

I am going to make sure you lose every board game we play on the 7th because you're advocating for multiball

[Alisae]

Multiball or Day play
pick one
you can't have both

[Alisae]

okay but number wise
you should stick to 41 players for balance regardless of what you're running

[Alisae]

lately I've been seeing a huge number of theme games, especially large themes, that don't apply the formula I posted in thread.
those games resulted in being not very balanced.
