Micro 627 | Dumb Ways to Lynch (and Lose) - Game over

[McMenno]

good game town

that was close, luckily I picked town on day 3

that was the turning point I think

[Creature]

I realised it was townsided when it was too late.

[Aristophanes]

Release the PT if it isn't!

Also,

I'm Doomed. DOOOOOOOMED!!! XD

Called it.


Had a really fun game! We were killing it until...well until Wisdom died and it all fell apart...

[Creature]

Even if scum managed to lynch a town member D3, town could still win D4 by forcing scum to nominate one of them and pass the bomb between the other townie.

[McMenno]

what were the unused lynch mechanisms?

[Creature]

Day 6 mechanism would be the traditional lynch mechanism (named "Creativity Loss").

[Creature]

If scum were aware of all mechanisms it would be more balanced.

[mhsmith0]

I realised it was townsided when it was too late.

I'm not entirely sure I agree. 7v2 nightless is reasonably balanced, and this was 6v3 essentially nightless w some weird mechanics. Probably a "wolves get majority" win condition needed to be added tho. But a day 3 mislynch basically locks it regardless, w wolves doing same hot potato breaking strategy as town did.

[mhsmith0]

Like, pushing mislynches without getting caught is what wolves have to do. They didn't do it (for long enough anyway). And so they lost.

[Creature]

I agree that what caused their loss is that they accidentally outted themselves (even though I expected some of them to out themselves). If one of them were lynched D1 or D2, they would have a better chance.

D3 mechanism sucked, fortunately it wouldn't be deciding anyway. I've left some comments on the Mod PT.

[mhsmith0]

Also any time you have a game called "dumb ways to lynch" you probably shouldn't expect perfect balance

[McMenno]

I find it funny that I pushed the scum-scum pair D2

did they out themselves? I only picked maruchan because he looked towny and because of his townslip

[Creature]

Some game ideas I got:

Day vigilantes (D1 mechanism)

If you like crazy viggings. It's the same mechanism I presented, except dayvigging will be a permanent kill (and no treestumpify). The game would end when there are two or three players left.

9p version: 7:2 (two players left)
13p version: 10:3 (three players left)

Pseudo-Hydras (D2 mechanism)

Same as D2 mechanism, I'd add D1 mechanism and keep the teams permanent. Hydras/lovers wouldn't be permanent.

7:4 would be the ideal version.

Townblock (D3 mechanism)

As I said, this works better when there's one uninformed majority. I'd allow scum to nightkill one of the townblocked players.

11:2 maybe?

Hot potato (D4 mechanism)

There would have a voting to decide who'll get the bomb first. They would also earn the ability to check how many seconds are left, two times per day.

Everybody would get a quicktopic. The bomb carrier would pass the bomb to someone and that person must pass it to someone else. You can't pass the bomb to someone who already received it before until everybody has received that.

11p version: 8:3

Dead choice (D5 mechanism)

Yeah, dead will decide the lynch. With the exception for Day 1.

Daystart version: Day 1 lynch will be the traditional lynch mechanism. By day 2, there will have two dead players who can communicate by themselves to decide the lynch.

Nightstart version: Day 1 lynch would be decided by who was killed first (meaning scum can't just kill the "most experienced" player).

For the two above, I'd make scum's win condition: Kill all town members.

Nightless version: A crazy 8:3 would be good.

[McMenno]

the question is

woops

mod won't answer that. keep flailing, scum.

You know what
Fuckin do whatever the hell you guys want
Go ahead and lose I'm not playing a game where I have a disadvantage for having to go out

When I flip scum I'll go ahead and just quit ms yeah?

Zyf has been lynched, he was Lax, the

Mafia Goon

.

Going to start Day 4, just wait.

will Zyf now quit mafia scum dot net? find out after the commercial break.

ALSO

wisdom: "zyf is obvtown" "mcmenno and alabaska claim scum in every post they post"

I lol'd

[Aristophanes]

Bulba and aristo are both indeed scum

[Zyf]

Yo
I have a great idea for LYLO if you ever run another one of these creature
Theme is "dumbest way to die"
Basically you have to vote in private (votecount is released once per day with no names on who are the voters on a given person)
The goal is to not have the second most amount of votes by the end of of X days, because after the limit second-most voted is lynched

^^^From dead thread

@Menno no so go suck a

dick

thumb
Be sure to read dead thread tho asshole

[McMenno]

I did, and I see that you are still a little salty.

also, if you blacklisted me for what I did in this game, I feel like your blacklist will grow a lot larger, to the point of not being able to join a game on this site without a blacklisted player in it, and then the prophecy will be fulfilled.

I wouldn't be if you weren't egging me to quit ms just cuz you were right

[Zyf]

Cba to argue you it's not worth half of either of our times

[Aristophanes]

This is my favourite part of Postgame.

[shos]

Thanks for the game you all!
This was really entertaining. the 3v3 day was crucial, it was extremely bastard though because whoever got the first one had to get it. if scum got it, autowin; if town got it, they had to nail at least one townie anf this would make these two conftowns immediately.

Thanks for modding Creature!
Zyf if you mod something alike(do that! why not?!) I'm in
