@mod

is the mafia faction multitasking[/b]?

Confirming with hectic, but I think this falls under the list of questions we can’t answer

[Menalque]

i meant more maybe the mods didn't realize it was hammer, i guess

[Menalque]

Mod PT

- A bit of commentary from us

Mafia PT

- Removed the posts where they roasted all the players

Dead & Spectators

- They could see everything

Chara/Tuxedo Mask & lilith2013

- Friendship and betrayal

Dunnstral & beeboy

- More friendship and betrayal

Nahdia & Starbuck/votato

- Friendship and confessions

Morning Tweet & Kanna

- An iron bond and a quality scumteam

drusilla & Clover Ebi

- Revelation, paranoia, and regret

skitter30 & Raven Branwen

- Wholesome. Won't be released as per request

Nahdia/Star/votato, Dunn and bee, Chara/Tux/Lillith are showing up as “unauthorized”.

And the dead thread links directly to mine and Skitter’s PT.

This is fixed, I think the others are unauthorised in case they want to request any redactions before release

We were aware that how quickly town figured out the twist would be very important to the balance, but didn’t think it would swing this townsided if they got it on D2 and were prepared to openly scumclaim by then. We tried to redress that a little bit by letting dunn decide on the flavour but it was kind of a last minute redress of the swing. You have a point about the neighbourhoods too, I think, although the beeboy hood worked in Dunn’s favour by letting him get a good pocket, the others didn’t generate paranoia, everyone sort of just locked into “well my partner is town, it must be someone else’s partner who’s scum” which wasn’t (I think I’m right in saying) the intention of the hoods

I hope you enjoyed the game anyway, nahdia

I actually think Star and Lillith we’re screwed right out of the gate and I feel really bad for both of them. You believe you and your partner share the same faction, so of course as a ww, you are open and honest and share everything. That’s why Skitter and me, MT and Kanna absolutely trusted each other. Can’t really speak for Dru’s paranoia on Clover though and it unfortunately influenced me after her flip. But as ww Prs wrongly believing they could trust their partners - not knowing their Pr reveals made them immediate targets, neither ever stood a chance. Both were doomed from the start.

I think the counterpoint is that very accurate PR killing early on implicates the partners, and before the twist is revealed there’s the option for the scum to simply try to manipulate the PRs into bad shots instead of eliminating them. I think the play of knowing that immediately meant that killing them was a valid option, but I don’t think all scumteams would have chosen to go down that route and I think the manipulation option would also have been viable
