Starry Night [Game Over]

[Ankamius]

I was specifically avoiding pairing with my strongest townreads because I didn't actually think I'd end up having endgame equity like that

it's been a good while since I've been a universal townread

I'm waiting for RC to be like "bitmap-kun scum"

I wish I had a date for the dance

[popsofctown]

Ali I would have danced with you if it was gay dance

[RadiantCowbells]

Dunnstral-Creature

This would have been another freelo pairing

The completed games I've played since site hiatus are:
Jingles 9p old school newbie game - town win
StarCraft 2 Mafia Large theme - town win
Hope Plus One - abandoned (advantage town)
S_S Boonytunes mini theme - town win
Guns n Roses - town win
Any non-dead player can post in this mafia game - scum win (I didn't choose to join this game but I did become invested in it)
Starry Night Mafia - town win

I want to see scum winning more games.

Even good scum players are losing a lot of scum games this year.

LLD and FL lost their last scum games. Scum winrates are pretty low.

I've seen lot setups being abnormally townsided lately.

[popsofctown]

anytime or place I suggest some more antitown setups get run people snap at my fingers
I am about to first time mod a setup that I really like how it treats the town and the scum so I am excited about watching that but it's pretty new with lots of unknowns. It is maybe better take my turn modding setups that are scummier than site meta and trying to roll scum and play really really good rather than making enemies telling people I don't like their setups

[popsofctown]

i'm gonna try to be more proactive and/or use more of LLD's concepts from her article next time I play scum

If I get lynched for being more proactive and/or using more of LLD's concepts from her article I'll cry a lil

[popsofctown]

do scum win more often on the other sites?

[Ankamius]

I've heard scum like... don't win at all on a bunch of them lol

[Creature]

do scum win more often on the other sites?

Not on MU for sure.

Fire we did it <3 we endgamed a dance.

Hoenstly yea it is hard for scum to win but scum can win and it has happened. I think this game is genrally meant to play on paranoia and that is what scum should strive in order to win.

I had fun though and I am sorry you hate my play with fire pops

The best way I've determined for scum to win is to make sure people pressure other pairs more because imo it's really hard to shift a consensus read in this setup

[Ankamius]

I feel like a relatively small player base makes games more townsided than they would otherwise be

[RadiantCowbells]

Mislynching obvtown players is a skill that's never taught nor discussed as part of being a good scum player but it's the most important skill for mastering scum play.

[Gamma Emerald]

Scum won the first three runs of the setup, and then the town won the next four.

What changed?

Strategy developed. Interestingly the variant form was a scum win so I think the way to make this series remain varied in results is to introduce more variant forms

[RadiantCowbells]

The variant form was a scum win despite 3/4 of my top scumreads being scum.

[Gamma Emerald]

its ok
ywall can dance again in the dance game i'll mod
but its gay so people feel like they have more control of who they pair up with

Do you mean bi or it only same sex pairings
I'd definitely play a bi version but same sex only feels a bit wonky

[RadiantCowbells]

Making the game pansexual is a huge buff to town.

It needs a compensatory nerf to town.

[Gamma Emerald]

unwnd might have left me after Shiro got hammered too
The whole game felt like agony

Final scum is suffering, I know this

[OkaPoka]

add stds and add creature swap pairings rule

[RadiantCowbells]

Final scum is best scum

Scumpartners are the worst, they spew you scum and don't do shit for you

Bus them all and play solo

Step 1: People you think are obvTown are not necessarily obvTown.
Step 2: You are not obvscum and you should abuse that by Spreading The Suspicion^TM.

am I in the same book as you

I've seen lot setups being abnormally townsided lately.

well now I know which alignment I'll draw if I play a game

I am about to first time mod a setup

I missed the whole Normal changes drama but I wouldn't be surprised if that led to people overdoing it
also ofc the baseline is like 40% Town win (and specifically the games other people were in :V)
