Mini 2286: Legends of the Hidden Temple IV (Explorers Win!)

Rping town to better track thoughts

I have done this as scum hydra before

[furtiveglance]

Didn't know STD and Ceph were married that's cool. It makes it funny that I said in the PT that I thought STD was townier for pushing Ceph, but I wasn't 'married' to that read

[furtiveglance]

Me paranoia over GE while she calls me deluded town in the Iguanas PT is hilarious

[Haschel Cedricson]

Incidentally, while I want to thank all of you for playing, I want to give Gimli a special shoutout for replacing into what was basically an unwinnable situation for him and still being a champ about it.

[Flea The Magician]

Yeah not sorry for barrelling headfirst into you Gimli Hopefully we may get a game where we can play more in future lol

[Gimli]

ty for the nice words, fellas <3

gg town, nice win and thanks haschel for modding! til next time

[Nancy Drew 39]

Gg, thanks for modding Haschel.

I was like 97% on voting Ceph.

@Flea, we make the best mothafkn team evah! <3

Hope you feel better soon, Mastina.

[Gamma Emerald]

I feel bad the scumteam ended up in a downward spiral

[Yume]

Well, how did I do, mastina?

[Nancy Drew 39]

And again another pt which greatly helps with reads:

@Gamma, my God, like Yhan was the most obvious scum ever. Pretty much identical to random midget in Labrynth.

Would have 100% locktowned Mastina based on the pt, for some reason it didn’t translate as well.

Silver Snakes’ hood was a total laff riot. Seriously why did the two of them even bother at pretending to be town in there? lmfaoooo

When Aisa pointed out that Ceph wanted her head > Mega’s was probably the moment I was very confident it was Ceph.

I give Ceph massive props for efforting. Couldn’t be easy in your situation.

I came to the right conclusion at the right time imo.

[Nancy Drew 39]

Yeah, just saying it’s textbook scum-in-hood pocketing behaviour. Random did precisely that to me in Labrynth, Ydra did to Taly in HDP and Taly to Bell in LOST.

That’s how it was really obvious very quickly that me and Flea likely had a masonry in there. Fae never once played up to me and while both of us probably remained slightly paranoid of the other, we still tried to work as a team.

Flea wanted to challenge Gimli and I told faer to go for it.

[Nancy Drew 39]

I’m not criticizing you at all Gamma, it’s extremely easy to be fooled by it. It’s happened to me at least twice now.

[Gamma Emerald]

I probably would have eaten the apple pretty freely had I not been made to look a damn fool not even a year ago

[Gamma Emerald]

Thank you for the feedback, fwiw

[Nancy Drew 39]

Thank you for the feedback, fwiw

<3

[the worst]

Sorry to be (a significant) part of the problem. This game was in a doomed state and I was quite looking forward to throwing some mud at the wall and seeing if any of it stuck.

Had some bad news this week, I'll need to drift back into hiatus. Good to briefly play with some of y'all again before I do. <3

[Ythan]

Yeah, just saying it’s textbook scum-in-hood pocketing behaviour. Random did precisely that to me in Labrynth, Ydra did to Taly in HDP and Taly to Bell in LOST.

That was actually all genuine! I wouldn't lean too heavily on this example when trying to draw conclusions in the future, I think you might be confirmation biased reading it after the fact.

[Aisa]

Good game. Thanks for modding, Haschel, and thanks for playing, everyone!

I have memories of tw being super friendly and helpful when he replaced into a newbie game I was playing in... 2019? 2020?

[Aisa]

You had the power to challenge anyone you wanted at any time, so I'm trying to understand why you worded it as "don't give up on Aisa" as if a wagon on me was some unobtainable pie in the sky

I unironically really like this >.>

[Firebringer]

as someone who loves this setup and passively watching some of this game.
well done by town on the sweep.

Wish i could have participated. Feel bad for the scum but thats the way it goes sometimes

Rping town to better track thoughts

Yh just read the scum PT, feel bad for Ceph. Even when I signed up for this game I thought the setup was slightly townsided but yeah. Oh well, just a game. Nice for me to chalk up a smooth town win, considering my town record before this game was 1/3 wins/losses

The theoretical EV for town is 33%!
https://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?ti ... ation_Rule

In practice I expect it's more townsided because neighbourhoods and the fact people tend to sign up with someone they're familiar with
I wonder if games are more townsided in general than EV suggests hmm

[Firebringer]

This setup has been run 3 times by Haschel. (Haschel Cedricson can correct me if there is more)
1st game was a scum win.
2nd game was a Town win
3rd game (this game) town win.

I have run 2 alternatives that was a slightly adjusted (a micro version and a large theme)
Both games were scum wins. [The big adjustments to these games was that players selected their team AFTER role assignments instead of sign ups. And obviously the number of town and scum are adjusted]
Micro = 6 - 3 [Town to Scum]
Large = 10 - 4 [Town to Scum]

[Firebringer]

shameless advertising plug:
if anyone enjoyed this game i do intend to run a sequel game to my previous large theme version of this setup. Which will be modified from my past run. Will be still be 10-4 scum.

old large version:
