okay, look. ico will probably protect you but might protect bob. if scum shot anyone but ico, it would be wasting a kill.

okay let's think about this for a second

i think we do alonzo today bc i'm extremely confident in alonzo!scum

do we see a world where bob is scum? because noraa, one of us is probably dying tonight, and datisi and bob are going to cross vote tomorrow, and i'd prefer we make that decision rn

goddamn it i should have pushed harder for an alonzo lim yesterday

lmao well okay

i think your shots on bm and menal, as well as your lie during massclaim, were bad play; that being said, vigilante is a hard role, especially for relative newbies, so i do understand your hyper focus on "not wasting shots"

if you roll vig in the future, don't be afraid to holster often! playing as a vigilante means knowing when to shoot and who not to shoot. generally, lying about a vig claim to avoid "wasting" shots is a bad idea, and come massclaim you should usually claim.
in addition, maybe next time don't try to directly contradict more experienced players when they're talking about the setup? saying things like "town vig usually means mafia doc" when you don't necessarily know what you're talking about and don't have a lot of games or relevant research to back you up on that claim is counterproductive and won't help anyone. definitely bring up points you're experienced with, but don't say things if you don't know about them.


that alll being said, you're still a relatively new player and have been playing well the past couple of days, after you realized that both ico and i were basically confirmed town, so kudos on that! you'll definitely improve as you get more experienced, and I don't plan to blame you for anything :P

if your kill doesn't go through for some reason, get datisi in 3p lylo.
if bob is scum, good game and well played!

alonzo i was SO angry at you when i saw your flip but then i realized that your play actually was perfectly +town because if you had claimed you'd just have gotten the lim anyway
it was risky because you could have gotten vigged but whatever

great job everyone!! very well played game on all sides.

i think the only possibly problematic error was in ico's role PM, but as a first time moderator that's not necessarily your job to catch :P *mild playful chastising of the reviewers goes here*

balance wise, it was well done! townsided, but it was definitely within the "balanced" range. i just wish Alonzo had claimed; he might have been vigged and that would be REALLY bad.

All that does is waste a vig shot though? Even if you lim alonzo afterwards, that was going to happen anyway and he still get the venge shot off. He certainly could've claimed 1-shot bp though
his BP was already gone, so if noraa shot him he would have died

how would you say it was unbalanced?
i don't know - i'd have to see the review pt, but i wouldn't call this setup explicitly unbalanced.

noraa ngl

idk if you know what dance games are but essentially they're games where players target each other during the day and become lovers & neighbors with them

i was town dancemaster, the most powerful town PR in a fairly PR-heavy dance game: i could read EVERY DANCE PT and shut down one of them

and i managed to get myself eliminated d1 after some absolute shitty play, even though i claimed, because i sucked that badly
we all get better!!
