Dogs vs Cats Mafia Spectator/Dead thread

[Thestatusquo]

We did it.

Good things will happen with your /ins

Spoiler: Not really a spoiler

I'm sure Chara will enjoy it because there will be a lot of death!

I also have a “large” in the works you might be interested in MC. Link is in my sig, but it’s actually a cleverly disguised mini.

[Chara]

i need about a year to cooldown from my last townstumps game.

You are tempting me but I'm gunna burn out again if I play too many games.

[Firebringer]

What a plot twist

[Jingle]

Lol, that’s fair. I designed this to hopefully mitigate the issues of the genre (no stump masons, the players get to choose their stumps, stumps have a way to leave if they’re overwhelmed) but they do tend to be high burnout.

[Jingle]

Ooh, smart hammered unwnd game. Time to be sad I don’t rand so again

[Thestatusquo]

I play like one game every 5 years and this is my third this year now. What is going on with me.

Spoiler:

oh ok

were any of

chara

toadette

firebringer

flea

ivey

brave heart lion

scum

Spoiler:

pooky makes a ton of sense as scum. I feel like I said they were scummy on d1 but maybe I stopped suspecting them as much and it's why they weren't on this list. I feel like I played pretty well b/c so far I have 3 correct scum reads (chara, fire and norway) and 2 wrong reads (fark, ivey) The only thing is that maybe I shouldn't have been so town and ny posting was perhaps taken as a pr softclaim.

did the cats give any specific reason they killed me? i mean other than the fact that I vastly prefer dogs.

oh, I was wrong about unwnd too so looks like I'm only batting .500

Spoiler:

there wasn't really a ton of discussion about why you were NK'd. Chara just kind of threw your name out there in a list of 3 people and no one said otherwise so it decided to kill you.

I'm guessing I was the cat kill?

STOP THE CAT ON CAT VIOLENCE!

[Thestatusquo]

Spoiler: setup balance thought

I think its possible I should have given the dogs just slightly more power, but the idea of the setup was to give everyone roughly a 25% chance of winning among town rats cats dogs. So if it felt like your individual faction was underpowered thats likely because it was, by design. Giving everyone a fair chance at winning sort of gives everyone a reasonably low chance of winning by default.

Spoiler:

chara was a cat. of the grumpy variety. No rats have died yet.

Spoiler: More setup musing

I also think maybe it was incorrect to make Titus an alien cop specifically. In designing the setup I liked the ambiguity of the role in that it could either be flavor or a faction and sort of gave the town a chance of considering three factions if it flipped, but seeing it in practice I'm not sure I love the effect. It sort of made the claim a touch more dubious than I wanted it to be and derailed the game a little bit more than I wanted in terms of a red herring. I don't think it was awful and it accomplished a lot of the stuff I wanted it too but it kind of feels like "Horse cop" would have accomplished a lot of the same things while giving titus a little more believability and would have derailed the game slightly less.

Do you want spoilers on this or no?

[MURDERCAT]

Spoiler:

It was way funnier this way though. I think it did what you wanted well enough.

[Nero Cain]

Spoiler:

I am not sure if XO is scum. like I think there is a TON of potential scum motivation in adopting a "I only vote when I'm sure" stance and maybe she just is scum but I also think that sometimes town just have awful policies and this is mostly NIA.
