Gentleman Ser Arthur Dayne stepped into the hall, and to his surprise, found his dance partner getting ready to kick out Lady MiniDeathStar and Gentleman The_Jester.

"Oh, I thought you said you were going to sleep," said Ser Arthur Dayne.

"Yes, I'm sleepwalking right now," replied Lady inspectorscout.

Together, they pushed out the protesting duo and returned to the hall, where Lady Kagami and Gentleman Dunnstral was waiting with their invitation letters out.

"Oh, no. Don't tell me-" started Lady inspectorscout and turned to her partner.

"I'm sorry, inspectorscout," apologized GentlemanSer Arthur Dayne, as he drew his invitation letter out, "but this dance belongs to the red side."

And so it was.


Dunnstral, Parama, and Ser Arthur Dayne, aligned with Mafia, wins the game!

Haven't finished the dead pt, but a really important aspect of this setup is that it is very very very hard to lynch scum if there's any indecision or apathy in the town. We were seriously punished by that. I think pie is blaming herself there when she wasn't really the problem.

The "correct" strategy is to no lynch day 1, then randomly decide which pair survives, then chain lynches around that, which gives a very town sided winrate of around 60%. The reason scum have been winning these is that when the decision of who is lynched is not random, scum's ability to manipulate the lynch is very strong.

I hope that in future iterations, there will be a no lynch day 1, and people will generally play to follow the town-driven wagon rather then everybody following their own agenda, throwing their vote whichever way it blows.

If you want my opinion?

Regardless of whether your reads are actually solid or not, and I do know from experience they are generally at least decent, you constantly come off (to me at least) as neophyte trying to speak with far more authority than you have.

Can't say with certainty how to fix that, but that's why you lack charisma from my perspective anyway. It's a tonal thing, I suppose. Work on your game personality.

Not sure what post you mean, but it looks like my phone butchered one. I meant that lynching sad was impossible without mds.
