The thing is, Sylencia really just won us the game with that shot. Had it not gone off, it would just have been the standard D1 misslynch with a bunch of guys looking semi bad. But with this shot, Rayn was really, truly fucked for example. And Z-Boson went from one of the guys no one had suspected to the guy who was quite suspicous.

FirmTofu's MegaKickstarting Post:

Hey y'all! I know I've been waiting for this game for a long time and I'm sure you all have as well. This game is somewhat non-standard, so there are a few things I'd like to address before we get started.


Because this setup is closed, we have to make sure we do not make any unnecessary assumptions that center around speculation about the roles. Speculation is largely a waste of time given the amount of information provided in the OP, so we should stick to the basics. Additionally, we definitely should not be directing blue roles that we aren't even sure exist.

Big Plays: If you think of some mastermind play that you think will fool mafia and confuse them, please don't use it. As brilliant as your plan may be, a closed setup has too many variables to account for and your plan could potentially confuse the town more than the mafia.

Lying: If you are town, DO NOT lie. If all of town follows this rule, we can separate town and mafia into two distinct categories, liars and non-liars, respectively. We can lynch liars without fear of them flipping town AS LONG AS every town member strictly adheres to this rule.

The Traitor:

5 mafia, 1 traitor. Anyone up for some math?
5/24=0.20833333333
(5+1)/24=0.25

The one traitor adds about 4% to the strength of the team. As the game progresses, the denominator gets lower. Assuming we don't get insanely lucky, the percentage of mafia will increase over time. The influence of the traitor will start to compound and he will become a greater threat.

We obviously need to keep an eye out for the traitor, but specifically hunting for him in the early days will be a waste of resources, in my opinion.

How to catch the traitor!
The traitor might get antsy and try to drop a few hints for mafia to pick up (to try and join them). We need to stay vigilant to find these subtle hints and make sure we call them out as soon as we see them.

PMs:
I'm thinking that we should choose our best town reads as PM targets. I'm somewhat unfamiliar with this mechanic, so if a more experienced player can give his thoughts about it, that would be great. This goes without saying, but remember to choose your pm targets wisely! This means NOT wasting both of your choices on Day 1 based on weak reads.

Post Count Limit:
We have a moderately strict 20 post limit during day. This means absolutely NO one-liner posts. Try to make longer posts that include multiple quotes. Respond to multiple points simultaneously. If you want to give your reads, do it all in one post. We need people to also save posts to ensure they can respond to accusations should they be accused. Plan ahead. Most of this stuff should be obvious, so I'm not going to beat a dead horse.

Alright, that's all I've got for now. Let's have a good, clean game. GL HF!

Inb4 FT and Z-Bo are scum and the traitor claim is just to generate massive town cred for himself. Lol.

Love that kermit song. My first reaction after reading opening post and ShiaoPi claim VT was ...

Euuhm wait, I shouldn't tell you guys. Rain and FT would get upset again.

I can tell you it wasn't "oh I am also VT". It was waaay bigger. I always think big.

Funnily enough, I think scum would have had a better chance at winning the game had you let that happen.
