My personal thoughts on the game:

1) Fidei had black and white vision when the game is grey and that pretty much cost town a large portion of the game since he didn't understand the mechanics of the situation.

2) TT not claiming his role with over 1hr until EoD was a bad call.

3) I am fine with the way the game ended, even though there were multiple potential outcomes on the final day. There is something to be said about the lack of knowledge town had about random wincons though.

4) I think the game, while it played out well ended up kinda imbalanced. 2 MLs and 3 correct lynches -> mylo seems quite punishing for town from an objective pov. But not really imbalanced enough to throw a stink about, it was a funsies game with all roles, it was bound to be unfavorable to 1 alignment.

5) I kinda agree with geript's last point. If the intention was to make the survivor unclaimable, it was either not stated or not enforced as it was claimed repeatedly.

Yes. I haven't really had the opportunity to balance a large themed game of this nature (in this case it was mostly Onegu, and he's certainly better qualified for it than I am) but I have noticed that at least since I started playing, that's probably one of the trickiest parts. There was a lot of town KP available, really, but I haven't actually played with the possibilities in this particular setup enough to know if that really is enough for balance, particularly given how swingy town KP can be.

The way I thought of it in the one large themed game I did on another site was to run a "perfect" mafia game against a "perfect" town game, and try to balance it so that a perfect game by either faction ended on the same day. I'm not sure if that's the best way to balance, though.

Does anyone who has been hosting here a lot longer have any insight into that?

That's really hard. Themed games will always be swingy. Like aperture 4 was way more imbalanced in the end than this and Greymist is probably the most experienced themed game host we have.

I still think I hold the record for most ridiculous game to balance.

I am not up for lynching ruXxar I think. Looked ok. Ballsy at multiple places. Could be town being honest.

I guess Chezinu is a bit less present as he is used to be. But we all should go back 6 months in time and give Chezinu till Day 3. When he is mafia it gets really obvious simply because within 3 days I somewhere bled town.

I would suggest to lynch somebody who seems to be doing something but really isn't doing anything.

Pretty much nailed my scumgame. Almost all one liners, some excuses, a decent amount of buddying, playing on emotions. Best 3:

^ hilarious. But you needed to spam a couple times different scumteams before that.


+1


Some other cool ones as well, at least 5-10 more typical Koshi phrases. lol. Probably was obvious after that initial Onegu rant lol. proof of Chezinu being awesome, 5 posts in a row 100% Koshi awesomeness:
+ Show Spoiler +


I rated Chezinu 8/10 levels of Koshi
-1 for not bashing the biggest jokehost of all time.
-1 for saying Koshi is a peasant while he is the King of Kings.

That's rather disappointing for Koshi though :/ I'd have given Koshi a 10/10.
