3v1 mylo strategy.
What do you guys think about the following strategy.
First, Imagine for a simple case you have a confirmed townie.
Confirmed town (a) selects and votes one player (their top scum read).
Selected pleyer votes their top scum read and this player must vote them back.
At this point the player not voting can be cleared. This has 66% chance of being town. More if you assume that both players had better than random schmhunting ability.
If cleared everyone unvotes and it is now 1v1. With the advantage you have town numbers in your favor during discussion.
Now the advanced case. Nobody is confirmed town. You start by everyone choosing their top town read. Until you converge with 3 votes on one person. This person acts like the confirmed town above. You can also proceed to clear him with >75% chance so you dont waste time.
While the advanced approach is only 75% as townsided as the usual no lynch, I think the extra discussion that needs to happen to converge can add a lot of information to town. Also clearing individuals with high chance has the benefit of helping town by concentrating discussions around less people and also potentially solving tvt conflicts.just because you get evil player role doesn't mean you are a evil person at HEART - KainTepes!!!- gigabyteTroubadour

problem is that it leaves people open to just winning via hamerThere's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.
You must not imagine that for beings like you and us there can be laughter. The low men laugh, and we envy them. But for us, the higher ones, there is no laughter, only an unending vigil, purely serious, stretching on into the night.- Toto

But if you're not even going to consider that they're scum, you might as well treat them as conftown anyway. No need to hammer test.In post 8, Toto wrote:

Sure. The first hammertest is optional, only makes the game shorter if you are about to lose anyway. Also removes one variable from the equation.In post 10, Infinity 324 wrote:

So hammertests dont really improve towns understanding of gamestateThere's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.

No I was wrong if only some people are online you can hammertest to convince people others are townThere's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.

Well you are assuming there is always an universal town read. If there isn't it may be easier to converge accurately on a town read than a scumread, assuming scum doesn't have town by the balls.In post 12, Accountant wrote:So hammertests dont really improve towns understanding of gamestatejust because you get evil player role doesn't mean you are a evil person at HEART - KainTepes!!!- vonflare

Hmm, this is actually interesting.
If you are certain it's 3v1, does hammer testing have a purpose? You're basically betting the game on a situation where if you're wrong you lose anyway.
