Forums - General Discussion - Mafia Round 37 Thread

Honestly, the game could have swung either way if the fucking sibling and (especially) the lover-slash-princess kept their traps shut. That destroyed the town. From what I followed anyways. I stopped following the game around FF's roleclaim.

Except that isnt town lynching mafia at every opportunity. That is town ignoring the fact that 2 deaths occured and instantly lynched baal even without waiting for a counterclaim.
Additionally that is anextremely unlikely set of events.
I would still blame town for lynchingbaal because he wouldve claimed and there wouldve been no counterclaim.



Back to my swingy argument. I could ignore a vanilla and naive cop to death. Or I could ignore siblings and a princess.
In one case it's just 2 extra deaths over the coarse of 4 days and nights. On the other hand I could cause 3 deaths and the loss of a day where scum get an extra chance to kill and my ignore kill is one step closer.

I'm not saying the balance it bad, just that had we not had suicide sisters and I-vote-myself-princess. They could still have been easily taken out unknowingly by me.

Except that I never said they would lynch mafia at every opportunity, just not-town which means mafia, vampires, werewolves, sks, survivors, cults, etc., etc..

That is town observing that 2 deaths occur both nights after the town jailkeeper dies. And what kind of counterclaim is going to prevent baal from being lynched? TOS is going to step up and say "wait no he's not mafia, I am." Someone else would probably say "Hey, you can't be the dying sibling that now has information. That's me" Oh the lack of a vig counterclaim will be proof enough that he's not lying as scum.

It's not all that unlikely; it hinges on Baal and mafia not killing the same player or running into protection. The order of town deaths really makes no difference as long as TOS and Wonk live.

It's good to know that if I'm ever tracked to a body I'll simply claim vig, and if there's no counterclaim, then you'll buy it right up.

 

So yeah, punishing to town.

Even if princess isn't lynched, it could be killed by Baal at anytime, by mafia at night, or by Wonk simply not quoting them enough. Same goes for the siblings. Also with the siblings, they had no indication that their other half had to be town.(EDIT: This is reinforced further by them not being able to communicate) Being a watcher, they could think it's the classic power town linked to mafia.(at least until a flavor split became obvious) I already went over the inclusion of two cops. Nothing wrong with the jailkeeper role, but there's obvious drawbacks to it too. Vincent could have been town's worst "asset" being voteless until released from the burden and offing townies every other night. Yeah mafia would want him gone as he's not really lynchable, but if they figure him out(or come close as TOS did) then he's such a pal to them.
