What was the setup that got people all mad? Or is it only Koshi complaining

mafia: godfather, framer, goon

The problem being that it is totally unprecedented that there is a gf and a framer.

essentially a "let's see if town overcome getting host-trolled" setup

Yes the setup is mafia sided. I'd guess ~60-65% favorite. But let's be honest, town stumbled it's way into lynches and almost lost because of it.

TBH, I think 60-65% mafia favored is probably the sweet spot for current TL meta. Town is just better than mafia in general lately I think. I dunno if recent record actually reflects that or not, but it certainly feels that way?

I wouldn't approve that setup if it were submitted to me as a balance team member. Town would probably be slightly better off in 9v3 mountainous just because of the amount of cop weirdness. If you're the cop in this setup a red check doesn't really tell you that much, since it's as likely that a red check is a townie as it is a scum, and as the cop you are not aware of this fact in a closed setup.

that being said, town won, right? So I don't know if people can really complain thaaaaat much.

If I were to change the setup, I'd remove the miller. That move feels the most right.

palmar and i had a little chat about it in irc, we agreed that the more old-school framer of "you can make people appear red to alignment checks" might be more appropriate. and no miller.

even then it's tough on the cop, but doable

I agree with this. I know I undervalue framers though because it's so rare it ever comes up.

I think the impact of a town roleblocker that can block the mafia kp in a mini setup without a mafia rber is being undervalued. It doubles both as a protective role and an investigative role. It becomes especially strong with 1 mafia remaining in endgame scenarios.

I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt. I mean not that fancy store bought dirt. That stuffs loaded with nutrients. I... I can't compete with that stuff.

Agreed. This setup looks fine to me.

The problem is that you guys are treating cop checks like they mean something, when really they don't. If you have a framer, godfather, and unaware miller, and a town RB, cop checks don't give you better than 50% chance of being accurate - at which point you're just as well off flipping a coin.

So really, this setup is somewhere between 8vt+1tracker and 8vt+1jailkeeper vs 3 mafia, which is pretty reasonable

You do realize town didn't know the setup right?

framer + gf is unprecedented. It was only "logical" that after the gf and miller flipped town assumed that the check should be respected.

lolol

dude, i'm sorry, but with a town like this mafia needed a leg up

no it shouldn't be used as the default for all games but i think it was completely appropriate for this batch of players >> something validated by the fact that it was a town win despite the set-up xP

no it isn't. 1 effective blue in a setup with numbers that favour mafia is not very reasonable

The problem is that the roleblocker is only strong late, and pretty weak early. Mafia will never carry the KP on anyone likely to be checked. So the RBer has to hit the 1/3 or 1/2 mafia that is the absolute hardest to find.

Of course later (if the RB is alive) it becomes insanely strong.
