Still a happy member of the cult of manectric
id do it again
Damn though I was really was on point by the end of day one lmao
And hey town finally won a game I've been in without mafia being unable to make nightkills. Took a lot to get there lol
did this game make you a fire type
And now we've successfully got three more.
Simple, just repeat the phrase "Manectric is the best mafia player as both alignments and I would like to join the cult of Manectric"
Oh. No thanks. Thats sam.Simple, just repeat the phrase "Manectric is the best mafia player as both alignments and I would like to join the cult of Manectric"
can i have a gg WP
wow had a hard time keeping up with the activity
i knew games on mu had a post but i was not expecting that much
also found 0/4 wolves, sorry lol
also i briefly skimmed and didnt get it at a glance, why was bystander outed on d5?
Gg all
They messed up what information they would have received if their action failed. It would have been explicit they still had the mindstone yet they tried to tell us they had no idea they still had it a full day phase later
because i didn't know we recieved a msg saying if our ability failed that we still had the stone so yeah and it was not mentioned in op
Damn porscha had the reality stone but mafia randed it back
Heh I wasn't doubting, you were obviously killing it, just given you'd already proved to have been a valuable asset it was hard to conclude there was another reason you died. If you'd voted wrong and still died then I'm like huh ok what mafia is scared of them
gg Wiggles!
Bystander played well, unlucky.
thank you wiggles i appreciate it
In the first itteration, I thought about having it so the hammer vote got the stone, just to get rid of that RNG.They messed up what information they would have received if their action failed. It would have been explicit they still had the mindstone yet they tried to tell us they had no idea they still had it a full day phase later
But that creates almost another sub game that I thought would distract more from the game of mafia more than the stones already kind of do.

Gg ez
oh btw tysm alisae for townreading me the entire game
You made it really eas lol
bro dvc is $%#!ing wild someone wants to suck my toes??????
a win is a win, thanks town. Sorry for the modkill.
gg everyone
@Alisae I am so sorry about that, I swore I sent you an invite but I promise that was my stupidity.
This game, despite the wild last day I thought went pretty well. I talked about it a bit in discord, but I know I had I think 1/2 newer mafia players against a really stacked town team. I actually thought about rerolling for the briefest of seconds, but I care a lot about Game Integrity even more than balance. If I had an imbalanced game, you can say I was fair and just $%#!ed up. If I don't have good Game Integrity, people can't join trusting I am doing a fair rand, or might favor a friend over someone I don't know. Few things specifically I wanted to mention
1). Stone Balance I thought was so much better than last time
My initial thoughts on going 3-3 to take mass claiming day 1 off the table was "well shoot, if mafia are good, this might turn into a mountainous really quick, unless a loot pinata of a mafia member is popped." Time stone obviously was nerfed from last time due to being able to continuously protect the same person. And I added an additional ability to the Soul and Space stone so that they had an ability the mafia might actually use (Space and Soul og abilities are a lot stronger in town hands).
2). Mafia needs to be fun to be a team
I know there are people like Rem that like rolling wolf, and some don't mind it. I tend to prefer wolf, but don't like doing large number of wolf rands in a row. I try to create a balanced game, but even if a game is more town leaning, I want to make sure the wolves have a chance something cool to do. Here, they got some stone powers that were nice, and a lot of information based on which stones they had, they knew which ones to watch out for. I think that leads to a lot of cool mechanics for setting themselves for success if they can hide in the town.
3). In the end, there will probably always be something missed that makes it hard to lie
Obviously, the elephant in the room from the mafia perspective was that it wasn't clear from the OP that failed abilities would not cause the stone to pass on use. Manetric knew this because he had failed to vig N3 I think when he was time stoned. I think in an open setup with mechanics, I think its important to be clear how mechanics everyone knows exist interact with each other. For instance, a player needs to know if they were redirected or not. The mafia didn't have any abilities fail, so it is unclear that they knew how to fake it. Now from an end result scenario, I don't think it mattered in the grand scheme of things since even if the deception worked, Lukeh flipping town immediately outs Bystander as a liar. But it could have made for a closer game, and even perhaps a mafia win if wiggles fired and was redirected (but even that was a 50-50 and ONLY if wiggles didn't holster).
In the end, I was very happy with how the balanced worked. The fact that one more mishang could have been a mafia victory made this a nailbiter towards the end when by day 2, it looked like it was going to be a town stomp. I hope all of you had fun and I would love if any of you joined another game Ill do after Hydra season. Or if you need a player for a game you want to host, ping me if you need some people.
Gg to everyone!
I literally sent Nippleman a sad face when i saw i rolled town and no stones
Me dying night 1 in this saga but wining is my canon event
