Oh, by the way, how many cops and doctors are there?

Anyone know?

Also, I've done some analyzing of the 5 previous games listed. The ultimate difference between the town win and the scum wins is the trust the town had.

As such, I propose that, once a cop gains a result, they immediately reveal. In all 5 games, not a single kill was blocked, so there's no reason to beat around the bush with that. Therefore, we should just be completely open about what happens.

I agree

also the last time I did this a MG claimed he was a daycop with scum result on me and I got lynched so if that happens again I'll probably quit mafia

also RVS

I'll do a RVS vote next post
No daycops, so don't worry about that.

the problem was it was this setup and I said he obviously scum since he fakeclaimed a role that wasn't on the list

then they lynched me for "scummy reaction"

I stopped playing on this site for a while after that

but on to the topic

we need more than 3 people to post to have stuff to talk about ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Meh.

Give it a bit. People will flock in and lynch me for my scummy suggestion.

Ranger saved MURDERCAT in the previous DoP i played, hosted by davesaz.
Hmm, ok. I was just reading the 5 on the wiki, none of which include that one.

But my point still stands. A doctor's only real power is the threat of them not being able to kill the most obv!town slots. They rarely actually do anything, entirely because of that threat.

I think this is the optimal strategy here. Once a cop gets a result, he should out that result and should give us two confirmed townies (the cop + the person he copped).

I wonder if the best strategy here is to no lynch and play follow the cop. Does that work in this set up?
You're wrong on 2 accounts.

First off, you're assuming that scum won't fakeclaim cop and give a fake result.
Secondly, no-lynching is never a good idea. By letting the scum dictate the kills, you lose powerful town players. So let's not no-lynch.

That was fast.
Yeah. I'm leaving the site. I told myself I would after I got done modding my game, and then I got caught up in a cross-replacement, which I shouldn't have agreed to.

Sorry about that.
