WW 34--The Slugfest!

[MJW (ya that one)]

Wow, thanks for the horribly condescending answer there MJW. I was more confused about why certain voting trends went where they went, than mechanics of the game, as I can read and they were stated pretty clearly at the end.

Sorry.

1. With mafia, poweroles and traitors around no-one pushed anyone. Someone has to be on top and it happened to Rowian.
2. Bob got lynched for being a town power-role in a mafia village.
3. Brick vs Jkaen. It was just fluff until Brick revealed and started the push.

[Jabbz]

No worries MJW. I'm a sarcastic person, and it sometimes gets taken seriously. Thanks for the clarifications.

2. Bob got lynched for being a town power-role in a mafia village.

EHhhhh. Jkaen pretty much led that lynch.

[AdrienIer]

Wow. I didn't expect mafia to have a voting majority from the start AND awesome powers. Well, I had hoped I could get everyone kill each other and last till my double vote killed everyone else, that didn't work out. At least no one found out I lied about my role until the end.

The concept of this role was a SK who couldn't kill and is given other broken powers instead to compensate for this. It was also made to help out one side when they are losing by hypering them but that didn't work out at all.

Edit: Actions
Drug Goreripper; hyper if town. Not town so drugged. Stolen contacts Double-vig Gazglum and Vest-giver JKaen
Just Drug Jowy
Just Drug Lewwyn; contacts stolen but it doesn't matter anymore. JKaen would be considered a contact if he was recruited on night 2 not night 3 here.

But you told me that my hyper would only work against Brick to give him one vote back ?

[zakalwe]

I think the way my recruitment ability worked in this game was kind of nice. By costing me my own life, its power is toned down a little, and since my flip would reveal exactly what had happened, the main purpose of the recruitment would be to A) have a way to take out a strong power and break a town "fortress" and B) reset all "towncred counters". So while it's obviously strong, I think it's a role that could be used again in other setups. I was always slightly worried about the whole "we vote in the scumthread about who we kill" mechanic. Turns out there was no traitor among the traitors, but we had the potential to recruit one. Nice touch.

I also think the individually crafted PMs were a nice touch. Kind of necessary I guess since you want to avoid PM meta-clears but also want to be secretive about the setup.

MJW, what do you think was bad for town about the role assignments? I'd say they got a good set of players and generally also played well.

[zakalwe]

Another thing; all of the traitors should have been given powers (and then rebalanced), IMO. The setup was a bit bland with so many vanilla roles.

[Bobchillingworth]

If a rage-quit is not possible then its not the ultimate FU role in the first place...

Right, allow me to rephrase: anything accurately described as "the ultimate FU role" really has no place belonging in a WW game


Or at least, not in a game that isn't advertised as being intentionally bastard.

Or at least, not in a game that isn't advertised as being intentionally bastard.

I feel like if you sign up for a game run by MJW that stipulation doesn't need to be made.

[MJW (ya that one)]

"But you told me that my hyper would only work against Brick to give him one vote back ?"--AdrienIer Yes but that's the only case of a vote influence and I told you after he died.

I think people would stop Jkaen's attack against Bob if it was a town village, Lewwyn.

I went all out this time so obviously a next time would be below maximum.

Let's see Zak:

Jowy is very easy to lynch; especially with lewwyn being mafia. Also impulsive.
Gazglum isn't aggressive enough to use vig effectively. I even prodded him on night 1.
Jkaen has a hard time reading people and that's needed to power role effectively.
Qgqqqqq will be obvioustown due to never drawing scum.
Bob has a role that needed to lie but has a history of lying and gambits.
AdrienIer is a n00b with an hard role and that's bad.

This is just fluff, the real issue is the other roles:
One of the brothers is awesome on a wolf team.
Lewwyn is the next strongest player.
Mattimeo is the king of lurking and will easily slip under the radar with all the BS that happens.

[Commodore]

It's not a bastard insane steup. You just all suck as players.

Classy.
