It's kimd of funny because even though I was wrong about merk, I don't know if the game plays out the same way if Xad gets lynched instead.

Xad either purposefully or accidentally took care of most of the scumteam, so probably not!

Honestly I probably should've targeted lupus or someone else instead of AA, but killing scum is satisfying, even if it kinda ruined me in the end

This game was great, gg everybody! I feel like being in FF7 spectator chat unintentionally helped, since everybody was talking about optimal SK play and stuff in there :eng101:

Yeah. I thought she was town and her little comment towards the end of D3 made me flip back to merk after I had done a good job convincing myself he was town over the course of the day.

Fun game!

Dunno if AA picked up everything but his BP stops the SK unstoppable kill. Would have helped scum if backups flipped as backups. Also knowing of SK having absolute kill priority would have been useful.

Basically running it as a closed setup with specialized rules hurt scum a bit (though it prevents town from mass-claiming to solve the game).

Personally I'd say replace the poisoner with a rolecop. Having only a poison kill could help evade the tracker, except if a poisoner is tracked N1 to a player, and that player dies N2, most people would put 2 and 2 together. That and at 4-man MYLO, town can mislynch and get an extra day due to the poison delay, making the poisoner a liability to scum. Also, if the ninja is still alive, a ninja kill is almost always preferable to a poison kill.

It’s possible. It’s very hard to balance it because you need to make sure the role isn’t just a nuisance for town and scum to deal with, but a real role in its own right. We’ve had serial killer wins in this community. I sort of have one, though it was a secret all scum game anyway.

KB won Scooby Doo Mafia as a 3P survivor that was basically an SK. Although to be fair, if he had found his prize on N2 he could have not killed anyone else and just looked like a vig.

Great game everybody!

I'll admit I was kinda lucky in getting Xad, my reasoning was to follow someone who hadn't claimed and in two games I've played with him I found I have an hard time getting a read on him so he was my choice. And Tolly had me completely fooled.

Even I thought Tolly was town, and I was scumbros with her.

Yeah I probably wouldn't have gotten Tolly or AA, at some point I will nail a scum on deduction, until then, keep playing.

Huge apologies to Monathin, my freaking out was because I read AA’s flip as jailer not janitor.

I of course just pressed on because lord knows I wouldn’t want to lose credibility :v:

Also I had NO IDEA that my kill was unstoppable/had priority, I was hoping AA would also get a kill in, so when he didn't I assumed they tried to kill gaspy

I almost always tend to get more engaged the later the game goes on, so by the time we got down to the backups + me + Xad I was pretty riled up, Gaspy somehow thinking the setup had room for 5 scum + SK was making me lose my mind because that seemed like such a weird drat thing to say.

I probably didn't need to post so many times in succession though.
