Magical Girls UPick - Heart of Shadow (Game Over)

[Tana and Ephraim]

Actually...

Like here im hoping RC a.k.a RADIANT COWBELLS, comes and helps me sort bitmap coz im not good at sorting those types of players.
-Tana

Ok from a quick skim im liking Titus,

bitmap

and pops for town.
-Tana

What changed here?

I made a decission based on your posting because I havent heard from RC yet.

Can't tell if I'm sleepy or tides posts are just that uninteresting to me. I think my fav part of being in a hydra with Shadoweh is people won't be able to use the main excuse people used to push my slot. So now if anyone does try to push us it'll be a lot more interesting.

[Tana and Ephraim]

Who's shadoweh again?
-Tana

[Tana and Ephraim]

I feel like i've heard that name before
-Tana

[Bitmap]

I only know Shadoweh from Maidens of the Kaleidoscope.

Although I was tempted to avoid talking about you and RC all together given you just scumread whoever pushes you

That's... not wrong.
-Tana

My logic with you is this: Even if I hate every post you make
A) If you're town scum will probably shoot you because they think RC is a god at the game or something
B) If you're scum well I'm sure people will paranoia lynch you in time.
Although I'd rather go with option C but I doubt that happens
pedit: I think me trying to read you guys is a waste of time.

What us this option C

[Tana and Ephraim]

I didn't misread you in Project Arch tho, what makes you think i'd misread you here?

... She literally goes by "Mistress"? Really?

[Tana and Ephraim]

OHHHHHHHH. I saw that account in the first attempt of MD and wondered who it was

[Hidden Happiness]

We play a normal game of mafia and not do any of the stupid stuff that happens around my slot. But, as I said thanks to my partner if that happens~

-Tana

I always expect people to go into a game scumreading me to some extent besides 3 people. None of that are in this game. Although with you it's more so. "If I even speak of a scumread on Sakura she's gonna try and kill me."

I am very thankful for this and I do hope everyone else does the same!

I call her Misty and it makes her voice go all high pitched and cute.

Please sign posts when you can, to the hydra accounts.

[Hidden Happiness]

To quote a post I said last game: Pops how can you not tell between me and my partner? I feel like we're blatantly obvious.

I would probably be trying to stab RC if it wasn't for Sakura.

[DrDolittle]

Anyway, as for the actual game...

If we assume 4 mafia in a 17p game, and a backup gauge = to half of scum, just like ours, then probably we can assume at least 2 scum will be using their transform powers, and at max 4.

If we want to guarantee transforms, we want a max of 4 townies transforming. But if we go for that, it means scum will be able to get all 4 of their potential night powers.

If we want to force maf to crash their own backup transform gauge if they crash ours, then we want to aim for 6 townies transforming - exactly half of us.

I personally prefer a role madness game to a mountainous, so I suggest we assign all living players an odd-night transform or even-night transform modifier based on wether their player number is odd or even.

I want to be risky and try for a scenario where townies with crappy abilities don't transform and townies with powerful abilities transform and we don't overheat. Worst case scenario our sane cop works every other nightbecause we overheat, best case scenario she acts every night. With the leashing, both best and worst case scenario is every other night.


Pandora and Loki are both represented as dark attribute characters in puzzles and dragons, and are both black. So that's why I picked the names.

Both their mythologies are kind of about subverted expectations.

can we discuss more gameplay rather than wax on nostalgia

[Tana and Ephraim]

My usefulness to town is significantly dependent on how everyone chooses to relate to me in the game. I struggle with dealing with policy scumreads on my slot and townies who get salty and no effort when I scumread them the blame me for not changing my read.

I would appreciate it if people put in the effort to relate to me in a healthy way because it will pay dividends both in terms of town success and an enjoyable game.

[DrDolittle]

im not averse to eventide, but I think there should be a better way to incorporate pop's idea in "useful characters transform"

pop's idea laissez-faire alone is pretty shoddy, but I can't distinguish whether it's full on scummy.

[Gamma Emerald]

Honestly I think if townies just use some basic common sense things should work out fine

[Bitmap]

I think we should stop talking about game mechanics.

[DrDolittle]

why bitmap

[Bitmap]

why bitmap

My gut is telling me that it's a bad idea for this setup.

[Tana and Ephraim]

Speaking of, Titus.

I don't have a grudge against you. I haven't posted yet. I certainly wouldn't policy lynch you unless I felt I had to to win. Do I think that you're not a great town player? Yes. But it's not personal unless you choose to take it as such and I feel like you have done so and made personal attacks on me in past games accusing me of "replacing out to save my winrate" as a result of you taking so personally.

If you perform well over several consecutive games I'll reevaluate that read but I'm not going to give your reads any more consideration ~for coming from you~ than your performance to date suggests. That doesn't mean I'll ignore the stuff that you post because it comes from you, it means that "this read comes from Titus" is not a point in the reads favor like it would be if you were, for example, northsidegal. That's it.

I don't feel like Lady Eventide's posts have been that from town lately. Too mechanical and no scumhunting.

VOTE: Lady Eventide

[Tana and Ephraim]

The fact that both LLD and Katsuki have expressed intent to lurk is beyond concerning and I don't think either slot should be left alive past even day 1 if they are lurking.
