The monty hall information effect is super amplified in LyLo, so I think it's closer than it looks.
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"

I don't like this setup

I think increasing one players' chance of being scum isn't very fun, you're asking people to either vote against their gutreads or leave value on the table. I don't see how that's fun at all.

Monty Hall is a fun thought experiment... not an actual game design.
It's not the worst thing ever ever ever but I think so many setups are better.

I designed an 8p that worstie is backup modding and I'm playing in, we talked about it in the discord. It's experimental hopefully it's not a brick also! But I think you do have to try setups like this to see if they're good, and this was definitely playable.

I've never played marked for death before so the public poison itself was interesting to me.

I loved this game but I'm also on the fence about the MH mechanic. That said my scum style is hitting the game with a hammer until it is dead so maybe this calls for more finesse. Who knows. :P

I think this makes for a nice marathon tbh like MFD being able to sway people's perceptions for a moment adds a lot you know? I think I coasted LP1 in part because I seemed to have been protected at face value.

Great modding as always, Ausuka!

In my defense though I literally did not have time to read and PP said he’d vote me if I didn’t do anything by morning so I had to rush something out

I said do something, not vote Duck with the same reasoning that you used previously to explain why you weren't voting Duck.

tbf I wasn't voting Duck first though because I still feel bad about mis-desperadoing him.

I knew I should have voted the duck, but Pengu said he was gonna vote Chemist and I was bored and Chemist wasn't doing anything.

When I'm bored I kill townies easier. It's an unfortunate condition.

Sorry I flaked out guys. Legitimately thought I'd declared V/LA, but I was in the middle of a snowstorm when I got the prod.

I think it's an odd setup in that you should definitely just random gut choose the first protect, but subsequent protects are almost more important than the lynches themselves. I also think it might be more fun as a longer game where you have more time to try to narrow things down. I wouldn't judge the setup on this run either way because there was a LOT of replacing tainting the well, so to speak.

Yeah my opinion is based more on theory than this run
