VI Suicidal chat

Thanks for playing everyone! I hope you've had fun! I'm not really sure if I balanced this game right. So apologies if you feel that way. I will try and explain my thought process.

I thought the Framer was really powerful for Mafia, especially in a 9-player game, so I needed some hardcore stuff to counter it. After all, a cop guilty on a framed person could possibly lose the game on day 2. The framed person would get lynched, followed by the cop. So I decided to have both a cop and a rolecop. The rolecop could pretty much only discover the framer, and not the goon. The cop's results were very unsure. That's why I added the 1-shot bulletproof bodyguard, to try and save the day for town in case the first scenario happened.

I originally had designed the role of Andrea to be suicidal, which meant that at the moment Dale died(the bodyguard), and Jacqui(the goon) was alive, she would commit suicide. I didn't go through with it because that would have made the game very swingy. It also would have meant that Dale would be confirmed town in a way, so that was also bad.

I'm interested in hearing how you guys felt about it, I'm still not sure if I did a good job here. I might have given too little credit to WhiteLight though, because busting GuiltyLion on night 1 proved crucial. The moment shotty claimed Jenner, I knew he would die next, because the flavor name for mafia would gave it away.

That concludes Season 1. I only was able to produce 5 good mafia games out of 6 episodes, so there won't be a sixth on season 1.

I am proud to announce:

The Walking Dead, Season 1 Finale


I will be designing a Large Theme game, which will include a "best of Season 1" cast. All characters who were a part of the first season have a possibility to be included in the game.

If you want to pre-in for this, just post here or send me a PM!

gg town, very well played

Smart you should read my first couple posts in the maf thread :] Sorry I was condescending but that was 100% in persona

Radja after thinking about it I think the setup is pretty balanced, just very swingy. If things had gone differently in another universe where everything went well for us it would have been an easy scum win, unfortunately WL was on point with their investigations and we didn't sow a lot of discord in the town. I said in the dead/maf thread I knew this was a strong town and so we got rolled, I def could have played D2 better for sure.

Yeah I think the game was just really swingy. It all depended on who the Cop checked really. Fun setup though!
Thanks for modding Radja!

Pre-in for the Finale please!

oh lmao guilty you thought I was a traitor or 3p? hahahahaha (I'm happy you were scared of me :P though a little surprised you didn't mention me as an easy mislynch)

also sorry cakez :o add that to the list of times I misread you, though I expected a 3p based on the setup (so did GL, apparently) and I did decide shotty was probably GL's partner by day 3.

I think the setup was a bit townsided in the absence of meta, but the 2-investigative "counterclaim" situation we had probably balanced it. It was, however, pretty swingy, and I wonder if some swing could have been removed by informing WL of the existence of a framer. That way, they don't get instalynched after their guilty flips town, but scum might be able to talk their way out of a true guilty as well.

also my logic in the maf thread about WL not investigating me was super dumb because I wasn't thinking about how they had already outed themselves and so they might as well investigate scumread #1. I cringe when I read that post hahaha

I thought you were town when we lynched you but tbh I did not trust you to be an effective player and was worried that you wld do more harm than good.

lol mollie read the scum pt, we weren't touching you.
also I can't believe we didn't have a traitor.
I was trying so hard to get lynched over gl. I figured a framer flip would let us maybe get gl off the hook.

yeah shotty, we should have thought about that strategy before I claimed tracker hahah

I think I would've still been a LYLO lynch though, even if you did flip framer first

I do too, and I did say that! Over and over :p, but by then it was too late. All I did was ensure my lynch the next day :(
Very well played town.

Mav, you were just super townie. Everything about your posts and the way to you talked to people felt townie.
Beeboy and I were in agreement the entire time about your towniness.

Well I had WL and someone else I think both saying I was 100% town and yeat I couldn't really do much with this consesnus that surrounded my alignment. Maybe I'm missing something, but I felt as though I was more along for the ride than helping to push scum. I certainly need to work on my persuasive writing for when (as with Shotty) I think I'm on scum.
