I think the part we are discussing is that he intentionally broke the rules to benefit himself.
It was calculated, he purposely got himself modkilled.
Definetly more than a 1 game ban I feel.

I guess the question becomes, what is the virtue of giving out a longer ban.
Do we think that mocsta won't get the message with a 1 game ban, do we think that despite 1 game banning this action people will believe intentionally modkilling themselves when under threat of lynch will still be worth it?

I think that a normal modkill ban isnt enough because this isnt a normal modkill.

Behavioral bans, which this one probably falls under, generally result in a time based ban rather than a certain number of games.

I'll remind you that his modkill made the votes from town 3-2 scum to 2-2, essentially fucking any chance to ever lynch scum.


Yep, but the intention was there, which is what matters in these situations.

edit: let me clarify I guess. Mocsta was almost certainly either going to be lynched or shot. He was aware of this and from my perspective (although mocsta has not said this as far as I'm aware) he got himself modkilled because he thought it might benefit town. Yes, it turns out it removed town's majority in votes that cycle but mocsta did not know this at the time, I assume he thought he was making it possible for town to lynch/shoot scum instead of him.
That's not to say I agree that he needs more than a 1 game ban, not sure what I think about this yet, but it's worth discussing

I realize you were just co-hosting marv, but could you explain why the hosts have not really commented on this situation yet?
Or if any other hosts are around, ofcourse.

I would really like if GoT hosts brought up the Mocsta issue here. Purposely getting yourself modkilled is ruining the game for everyone. At least that's how i feel. That's the worst thing you can do. Play against your wincon and ruin the game for people. I also remember myself getting a 5 game ban for the same thing. Why are different people treated differently in these kind of situations?


He actually did say this was his reasoning for getting modkilled.

It may have been taken that way.

But it was actually for town to move on and get a successful lynch. I didn't predict town would react that way

Either way. I genuinely didn't know it was cheating. If I did. I certainly wouldn't have quit. So I do apologise on those grounds.

I have no real reason to disbelieve this, so I see no real reason to make it longer than 1 game ban, or a 1 week ban or whatever.

The point of the ban is not to make the other players feel good about it. The reason bans exist is to get a point across.
I doubt mocsta will ever do this again, nor will anyone who has read GoT postgame, isn't that enough?

Its the second time he intentionally modkilled himself, although the first one was a ragequit.
So apparently he didnt learn from that one.

Whatever the hosts decided on, im ok with.

To be fair, in the The Game I believe DrH offered the option of an intentional modkill so I can see how he would get the false impression that it is allowed.

but it's in every single OP and he's been playing here for a while, I don't think that makes it okay.

It's easy to not get "butthurt" when you are not invested in the game to begin with
It's also completely justified.

Is anyone interested in a round 2? I enjoyed hosting it enough to do a second one if there's any demand for it. I don't have enough time to play but I'd like to maybe host a game every now and then.

If you're interested, plz fill these out.

something i wanted to do, and i think greymist suggested it, was to have some kind of house related wincon. an example would be that if your house finishes with less than 1/4 of the total hp of everyone remaining in the game at endgame, everyone in that house loses regardless of other wincons.

the problem with that was that it would almost ensure that some people were going to lose. I couldn't think of any way around it but I tried really hard to work it in, and I'd like do maybe do something like that in a future game.

I liked the PMs, I liked the houses, I would like House powers, I dislike House wincons, SK is bad in a set-up with HP, 3P traitor or survivor could work.


It might be boring to be town and in a House were you can't be Lord though. Maybe a system that if there is no majority 2 highest voted Lords are elected in 1 house and both have 1 vote power, If majority is reached 1 Lord is elected with 2 vote power. Houses are 6 members and there are 5 houses. Or even use 3 vote power each House and 1,2 or 3 'Lords' can be elected out of 6.

I have no clue but something like that?

I would definitely be in for another round. I found this to be cool design.
I voted "exact same" on house & PM mechanics. I think they are clear and easy to understand.
I voted "combination of above" to the last poll. Since this is a high KP/HP design, I would love to see something like 2 mafia factions, some kind of third faction(s), and some more creative roles. I don't really know how to combine those to make the game balanced, but this design has a potential of many things because of the special lynch/PM mechanics and people not dying so easily. As a straight up mafia vs town game one side with only a little fuckups can get completely stomped. Imagine if town gets their shit together on N0 and finds a clear townie in every house. They work together and suddenly, GG mafs, nocando pretty much. And vice versa.

EDIT: More factions or/and add 3p(s). More roles that contribute to specific game mechanics but are not too OP would be my TLDR; suggestion.

the tricky thing is that the quality of the voting system improves the more houses there are, and the lord elections work better the more people there are per house. i don't really know how much would be too much though.

btw, that fake watcher claim was sick. just to clarify, i'm guessing that onegu went straight to kita with his roleblock claim, and the two of them had really strong town reads on each other and worked out the plan? i think there was room for a lot more stuff like that, it was a sick play that almost worked
