It was fun. Reavers still had a chance with the massclaim, but I think Mafia1 and BH were in a very tough spot. Although BH and Agent claiming PR didn't help them either.

For the bot:

GAME HAD ENDED


You wouldn't think Kit and I wouldn't have similar sleep schedules living on opposite sides of the planet, but sometimes I swear we're both asleep for like 6 hours at a time. Sorry I wasn't around a bunch guys.

Oh... as the game is over I am hereby declaring the no-plus-ones rule is lifted for this thread.

There were some great plays. Feel free to go and plus one your favourites.

I still don't understand why worcej claimed PR.

What were the Reaver press restrictions?

I'm pretty sure at least one had to do with usernames, and one with capital letters, but I could never quite parse them out.

I think town MVP has to be Damo.

I will preemptively claim lvp for absent uselessness

Nice setup, Kit and Ike

Reaver press rules were fun in effect, and it was a pity we did not figure it out.

GG, all. Thanks to Kit and Ike for gm'ing!

Ah, I feel I could have gotten that alphabetical one. Oh well.

From Bunny to Godthread:
"I'm honestly surprised that Xorxes hasn't figured out the problem with me commuting Temosek to prove I still have a commute. Ah well, people can be distracted and overlook things; happens all the time."

I actually did consider it as a possibility. I didn't say anything because that would serve just as well to reduce the number of NKs, which was the main purpose. If you were town, Temasek was blocked by you, if you were not, he would hold his kill to protect you. One fewer NK either way.

Confused about your comment.

Thanks GMs

Good game.

Poss a bit townsided but difficult to really know until things play out.

I'm glad I wasn't reavered. Fun because of press restrictions but horrible because of wincing change.

Reaver QT:
"If you die, this space will be inherited by the new Reaver Prime, who will then (presumably) be aware of their team mate as well as your existing thoughts and plans."

Tricky, tricky. Town was led to believe that Reaver2 would not be aware of who Reaver3 was unless it was through their public press and restrictions.

Gg all.

Can we please make a rule to prohibit mass claiming? It kinda ruined the game for the non-town players. I only claimed PR to try and extend the game a bit by getting a mislynch, because I figured all lynches and vig shots would be in the VT pool, which, knowing towns stupidity, means I would be mislynched. The extra vig shots especially scared the crap out of me.

I would prefer not to prohibit mass claims. If town thinks that's a good idea, or if scum can convince them it is, they should be allowed to, even if it's an objectively bad move.

I think the way to address this is to have a more implicit/official bias against setups where massclaims make sense. The (possibly outdated) GM guide says to avoid setups with more than 4 PRs, so maybe we just disallow games with more than 4 town PRs.

How do you prohibit mass claiming?

Do you modkill the first person to claim their role? The second? The third? Or how?

This is the way to go if you want to discourage mass claims: make them unfavorable to town.

Gg guys! Playing the evil mastermind sure is hard, ahaha. I didn't dare to risk reavering either damo or darg and it hurt quite horribly. Setup was quite townsided but at least the reavers had a chance. Town MVPs are Fox and damo.
