Yeah, the merlin role is super hard, it sort of makes you afraid of being right, even if you really should be right without the information. | ||

But then if I was VT being right about that stuff then there would have been a Merlin somewhere who would also be being somewhat right about stuff and... yeah. Vicious. | ||

Spies are given a 1 in 5 chance to auto-win the game without even reading the game thread. I picked Marv as Merlin on D1, as did some of the spy team apparently. From that point on, everything was irrelevant - the game was decided - Spies won, even if they never made it onto another team | ||

However we also need to find a way to cut down the length of resistance games. Days lasting forever is a massive problem for mafia especially, but town too. | ||

I dont remember the other one on this site being so slow. Actually an easy way would be to put a cutoff at 24 hours or when all the votes have been submitted. So at least there is some way of speeding up the day. | ||

I didn't read this game after ~2 pages into the game but idk what went "shit" in this one. Past three games were imo quite good in terms of activity and participation. I can get marv's frustration if the game was this inactive and if people played "wrong". I personally hate the Merlin role and i don't think it should be used. It's already frustrating for town in live games, i can imagine it being even more shit in forum games, especially if town plays bad or "bad". EDIT: And yes. I think the host should end the phase when all the votes are submitted. It's a good suggestion. Also all vanilla. Roles in resistance make the more random and in some way affect (or might affect) in town's participation. And it's bad. | ||

If it were up to me, this game would just not exist. Resistance is okay in forum format if you just do the 9pl setup with all vanilla. | ||
