What are the interesting wrinkles?

The delayed lynch kills, of course.

I meant the wrinkles to your playstyle that you mentioned.  The question was about your comment on your playstyle, not the setup.

[Swowl]

Hey all - set up looks fun. I don’t think the delayed lynch should change play to much. Skum will know if town is on the block or not and town will not know until the next day.

Anyways - I’ll be light of content until Monday evening. Meet this weekend.

The delayed flip does look like it makes things harder - like faust says day 2 will be like day 1 in terms of concrete information. I mean someone will have been night killed, which is not zero information, but probably not all that helpful.

Then I guess the main effect of the impatient vigilante is they can reverse that delay and make things back to normal where you know the flip, but they can only do that one day.

So overall, I don't know, but seems favoured towards scum there.

[infangthief]

Faust, why do you like day 1 so much?

[Joseph2302]

I'm the SK

[infangthief]

Oh, and, er, hello everyone!

I've not played with most of you before. Because I've only played one game.

See if things go a bit better this time around. At least with this set-up I'm guaranteed to be alive at the end of day 1.

I'm 'he', I'm in UK, 4 hours ahead of forum time.

Which gives scum more information than town. Which might change the balance somewhat

[Joseph2302]

My recommendation is that we should be treating an "on guillotine" player as an "on guillotine" player.

There's a certain point later in the game where they could become an IC though

Interesting. I'm not.

Because the town win condition is to have 2 mafia dead + 1 on the guillotine.
So if we have 2 mafia dead, if we guillotine someone and the game doesn't end, then they must be town

Wait, which UK are you in? I'm in the one that's 5 hours ahead of forum time, at least for today...

I use they/them as a pronoun by preference :-)

Nice to meet you!

[SpaceAnemone]

As for setup, it's cool, except that I typically suck at D1 because it's poor in the types of evidence I like reasoning with, and this game's info-gathering mechanics keep us in the dark for longer.

I'm also currently kind of VLA until Wednesday, though I'll be online easily enough in the evenings I think, which is not so different to when I'm home and at work all day...

[SpaceAnemone]

Also, vote: Joseph because the SK joke was never all that funny to begin with.

Why is nobody else voting yet? I'm all for pulling ourselves out of RVS and into rational discussion quickly, but OTOH, it's nice to have early voting patterns to analyse in the late game.

I'm all about claiming for effect. Also, I'm strongly inclined to use flips to reassess my reads. Having them delayed a full day into the game seems a handicap for me.

RVS is so passe.

[faust]

Faust, why do you like day 1 so much?

Because I'm alive on D1!

But seriously, that's not all. D1 is your purest form of social deduction. You have to figure out who's scum just by tone and without no concrete info. It's a special kind of challenge and it is just super satisfying to nail down a scum on the first Day.

[faust]

A note should be made on claims and this mechanic: Fakeclaims become viable earlier. Say you have two competing claims. In standard mafia you can just lynch one, if they're scum, lynch the other. Here you lynch one, next Day you don't know whether they are scum. So either you need to wait an additional Day (which is problematic if you enter MyLo that way), or you lynch both for a guaranteeed 1-1 trade.

Mod: Can we have sample role PMs?
So we can be sure of the other team's win conditions

What is the scum win condition?
Usually it's to control 50% of the town, but does that include or exclude people on the guillotine?

[Joseph2302]

I haven't thought about it much, there may be a logical answer, but I figured it was easier to ask for the sample PMs like what LL sent to the town & scum teams
