Actually it was partially. Even though making everyone blue means everyone is happy, with the town powers it's only a matter of time. Even without the mafia screw up the game was over.

I think that the game was dumb since the citizens used a strat that was used in a previous game (so they aren't as smart as they think they are) and since there were over 10 vets, it would have taken us a bare minimum of 12 days to kill everyone. That would have been way long enough for them to figure out the fake roles that we had.

In addition, if we all had fake roles, we could not prove that we were a vet since you posted a million pre-vote tallies, and only the vets knew that townie wasn't a roll. Again, this hinges on the town's plan, but it was an already used strat so it's not like they are geniuses.

If anyone thinks that the mafia could have done anything different, you are dumb.

Again, Chuiu, how could you not see this coming?

I fully expect you to be pissed off but you're wrong. First of all you can fake claim to be Private Eye, Mad Hatter, or Detective safely. Secondly I did not make 'a million pre-vote tallies' I made TWO. If you think this was entirely my fault then you, sir, are dumb. If I were mafia I would have had a couple mafia claim to be Private Eye's and a couple claim to be Mad Hatters and the rest claim to be Detectives. I could explain my entire strategy but you're probably content on thinking otherwise.



There are ways to check to see if we are indeed these roles, and I agree that your clever plan could work for a long time, but it would take us at least 12 days to kill them all assuming we didn't hit a single medic. And with the help of clues it is more realistic that it would take us 16 days if not more. Over the course of this time, they could weed us out and reduce our killing power even more. I am not saying that not claiming townie would have increased our time in game, but overall our task is futile.

Invincibility is only for one night and only for one set of roles. It can't be used on the same roles every night and can only be used 3 nights total. Its not very overpowering at all especially when mafia can get a double kill night.

Take a look at Mafia 2. An organized town doesn't guarantee a blowout.

Also I thought the game was going in the wrong direction the moment the veteran plan was outlined. Chuiu I thought the whole purpose of the game was to make everyone interested and to NOT have an elite circle of townies doing everything and giving orders. The veteran plan basically was a guaranteed non-mafia mayor/pardonner plan. Even though this outcome was funny, elite town circles aren't as fun to play with/watch if you're not in that circle.

Yeah I agree mafia kill count was too low for this game. Besides Veteran I feel that was the biggest mistake.

I dont think sanctuary is overpowered in fact can be pretty useless compared to double kill. The only imbalance is to have a rol that can roleclaim AND confirm first morning.

We were talking about this too. With only 5 KP a double kill night simply isn't that strong. Please consider having more like 15 mafia in the next game. I think that was the biggest problem. Mafia just didn't have enough people. Well maybe second biggest behind easy vet circle.

Ok maybe not strictly overpowered by itself but with this set of rules it was game breaking. Remember, the town's disadvantage is the lack of information it has, while it's advantage is high numbers.

With Sanctuary + Vets they had an easy way of confirming who is who. Let's assume that it was just Dyne + the other vets that formed a circle only. Thats enough power from Day one to almost sure fire end the game. None of the mafia powers, even Double Kill were good enough to stop that from happening.

Any time you give the town a way of organizing and the sheer amount of kill power they had (9 hatters was almost as scary as 13 veterans) things just won't end up well.

Yeah, I'm curious to hear what the clues were. I'm sure we were looking a lot of things that weren't meant to be clues and probably missing things that were.

They were pretty obscure and a couple of them were stretching peoples names.

Many of them bore a crest on their arm -> 3 Lions (Lions are a common thing to find in crests, when I think 3 Lions I thought of a crest with 3 lions on it - I knew no one would get this)

someone on the side of the building -> Trezeguet23 (money on fish line = bait, same as the role he played in the killings)

sharp looking man -> Ra.Xor.2 (don't ask don't tell, this was probably the easiest and hardest clue)

rather benign looking man -> inertinept lol it was triflejack (focusing on the word trifle and stretching its meaning)

the note -> fearus
