i mean I think I've made fun of the zwets all VT game to him before and I think there was enough shared understanding it was gross that he wouldn't do that.

Neither previous SS has been bastard on that level

I don't think he's done that to me but he might have.

The worst is probably a setup where there was a town where Hectic hadn't realized the town didn't technically have a majority d1 and the non town non mafia people didn't have an incentive to vote out mafia (although the mafia kind of did, because I at least realized instantly at least one mafia must be some form of traitor)

Hopkirk, is Hectic not yet on the "traitors are awful" train, cause I am willing to be the conductor.

I saw Hectic role traitor in a pretty sketchy setup so maybe that cured him, don't know if that particular setup was run before or after

This was ages ago.
He seems to be a big fan of Donnie Brasco mafia as of a few weeks ago so probably not.

Can this be a Donnie Brasco game? or does that require nonVTs

i believe this is something that would generally be mentioned in the rules if so, which it is not, but i will do so to see. however, i don't think anyone else should because this one would definitely be reflected in the vote count if possible.

VOTE: no launch

The other question if this is the case, for those more experienced than I, would we benefit from this at all?

i think it's mostly only beneficial here if everyone is a vanilla town. which seems very unlikely to me, so, i don't think so.

I don't feel there's any way for a mechanical guilty to happen at all having seen that.
i think it means that there is no player given the role 'cop' but there is still plenty of ways for there to be a mechanical guilty. there were mechanical innocents in that game i really don't see how you are ruling out the possibility of mechanical guilties here.
You're right that nothing keeps a game with surprise midgame events from having mechanical guilties.
It probably doesn't have mechanical guilties though, because this was posted not too long before or after this game was designed
In post 1, Hectic wrote:100% agree. I also dislike the use of regular cops, I don't think it's particularly rewarding when scum is caught with an inescapable guilty.
I think mechanical innocents are likely to make a comeback though.
i was thinking along the lines of a more complicated version of the mafia decisions made post first elimination in menagerie due to there probably being an additional member of the mafia. not too dissimilar to the mafia decisions made in gacha mafia, either, though triggered differently here of course.

mechanical innocents seem more likely to me as well, of course. i don't know if i would expect flea to expect thegoldenparadox to consider this, though.

if this was a game with evil hectic-mod against 13 VTs.

i would expect we need every vote on hectic to actually slay the monster

the vote count is a lie because Hectic will do anything to save himself.

we should elim-test them next if a unanimous wagon on hectic fails

perhaps this is one of those games where you have to elim the guardians before the main boss becomes vulnerable.

anything could happen

i mean we should do the full unanimous vote on hectic first to test that.

then start voting out the co-mods.

let's get it wrapped up so we can go back to playing the game if we're wrong.

ooo wait a moment...

It could be like the final Lavos fight, you don't fight the main core, you fight one of the support bits!
Destroy left bit, Lavos Core lowers its defenses.

Right Bit resurrects Lavos Core and Bits.

We need to hit the supports! Hectics been hammered, if this doesn't work we need to speedwagon the comods!
