seriously though, everything you say about balance is invalid.

I didn't follow the game but it looks pretty meh that there is 1 scummer that can't communicate with the other 2 scummers. It's just strange to do something like that.

If it would be like in Sicilian mafia in which there are 7 or so scummers and there are 3 scummers in a QT and 4 scummers in a QT then I would somewhat see it could be "cool".

1/3 scums not in scumQT is kinda uncool.

Not talking about any balance. Just about the coolness level.

Well i suggest you try playing a game like this.

Hell the host can make me an unkillable observer cop so i can just give reads and scum need to guess which guy that would be, individually.

For example from what yamato said he caught Grack purely because he was in fact not in the game.

fwiw, I figured that the message was likely from somebody out of game on the first one. From the way it talked it didn't fit any player in the game, plus the clear lack of emotional involvement.

I just didn't mention it because, well if scum go off in search of the cop, and maybe do retarded NKs trying to bluesnipe, it's all fine by me.

I've played mafia in games the host blatantly admitted were town-favoured (Death Note) and won anyway. One of my scumbuddies was a traitor I could not talk to or recruit...

If this game did have imbalance, it certainly wasn't serious. The fact that no-one is really backing you up suggests others don't really think so either.

edit: perhaps if it needed to be tweaked at all, it could have been allowed for you to send a message to scumQT like Hari could message town. That might have been logical.

I don't see any reason why Rayn shouldn't be allowed to communicate in the scumqt though. Balance seems like it'd be fine if that were allowed. His role and seldon's role even eachother out, and then town has one medic for an 11v3 setup with some mason groups. Seems fair.

If i could access scum QT and Hari Seldon was one of the players in the game i think it would be fair.

Not being able to communicate is the biggest imbalance in mafia game for scum.

Also marv, think about it, what if you had been Hari Seldon without mafia knowing it. You would have totally caught me on D1. Because as scum you are supposed to evaluate what you can get away with based on who the players are. I didn't know i was playing against yamato, why should i assume so? Also not being in game gives you an edge over other people because you can just tell what you see, you don't have to think about if you get lynched or if people believe you or not. You don't have to defend yourself in any case. You can just tell what you think.

Because i was playing against people in the game i wanted to see what this Sheldon guy does on N1, to get clues on who they are and from there on HOW TO DISCREDIT them. I made a plan, and i think it could have won us the game. Except that it would not because the Sheldon guy was not in the game. So we were TOTALLY an uninformed minority, whih in my opinion is NOT balanced.

Also i think the scum extra vote should cancel town extra vote (make it so that Sheldon moves his vote). Otherwise it's nothing but a proof that there is a scum role that can fuck with the Sheldon guy, which in fact helps the town...

i say it's GOOD for scum that town learns that they can't always trust seldon

like that's the main thing you aren't understanding about your role. even if it's blatantly obvious that a seldon vote is supposed to help scum, that still helps you destroy seldon's credibility

How do you suggest i should have proceeded to do it this game so that it's good for scum given that i thought he was someone in the game?

Like you can't just say "wow you are so bad you should have done something".
I am perfectly capable of admitting i am wrong if i am in fact wrong and someone can tell me why. But given the information and the tools i had i do not see how i could have done anything that does not hurt my team in the long run.

yeah i will concede that i probably should have told you that. (actually the original version of your role PM contained a copy of seldon's role PM, but I decided it was probably to much info for you to have.) however i wouldn't say it's unreasonable for you to be able to guess because people in the game and in the obs qt were able to figure out what was going on.

and no, the game probably isn't balanced if i were to have rng'd everything because the average scum player probably isn't capable of using the mule's abilitties effectively. i specifically gave you the mule role because i thought you'd be able to use it more effectively than anyone else in the game. same goes for the seldon role.

also I think some of your frustration at your loss needs to be placed where it deserves... on your teammates who did absolutely nothing for the majority of the game.

as per my last post, yeah i probably would at least tell you seldon is a non player if i were to do it again. but i don't think it's as hard to figure out as you're saying, because several others were able to

Well idk, maybe it's my fault because i just couldn't assume there would be another player who is not really in the game because i think it's just completely BS.

rayn is always mafia when it is the most fucked up mafia setup.

It is known.

I gave him a scumread for it in Suspicion mafia but the set up was not crazy enough. Evul scummers lying and stuff.
I had a good night of sleep.
