What do people think about a mass role claim?

Hi Dylan, haven't seen you in a while, I don't think we even finished a game together!

Vote: Dylan

I don't wanna.

Also, what's the meta with asher++? I've seen a lot about it but never paid attention to the details. Anything I should know off hand?

IDK I've never played it before. From what I have read, most games seem to turn into discussions of when to mass claim. Also a lot of probability arguments.

There was one infamous example where scum claimed masons day one and rode that to victory. Otherwise I think town usually wins by POE.

But again that's just my perspective from reading, not playing.

Howdy hey!

Scola! I’m glad you’re playing again. And Dylan, it’s been awhile. Yuma, we have not met but everyone seems totally amped to see you. Cool! Raptor, have you replaced Swan’s plate?

I wasn't being serious, too early
But, as someone pointed out, this setup often becomes a discussion in probability and "when should we mass claim" discussion

3 games at the same time, asher9++ setup, is this 2016? i LOVE THAT

usually yeah, people speculate on setup, then we know couple of roles and probabilities come into play. Usually SpaceAnemone or Calamitas counted how probable the roles are and we tried to win with this.

oh, the shower of nostalgia.

You can spend the whole day messing around with maths/probabilities if you want

But doesn't mean that much D1 except for confusing people

I do have to say, I keep forgetting that I actually did join this game since there was a fairly long gap between saying I was in and it starting, so it may take me a few irl days to get back into the habit of checking f.ds more than once every few days, but I'm gonna do my best!

Hi Guys! Semi-forgot the game was on. I see the set-up changed. I think I was in the game with the mason claiming. I also kinda think it was a low light of my career, but I don't remember much.

It is weird to be back. I am curious how this game will go for me. I'll be honest, sometimes this game brought out stuff in me that I didn't love. Because this can be a pretty intense game, which is why it can be so fun! So I am going to be monitoring myself pretty highly in that regard. I kind of feel like I am a different person since I last played in 2016 (wow! 2016... those were the days).

Also, that was a long time ago and I don't fully remember games/metas/feelings about certain things. Brains are weird. I have half-synapses for shortcuts and phrases and acronyms, but they aren't fully there right now. So treat me like a 1/2-newb for a bit.

Also my feelings about set-ups and strategies I think are a bit different. Mostly I think I am tending more to making games fun and figuring out if things work, so I think I might be more into mass-claiming and other ideas that would throw mafia for a loop and make it harder for them to plan.

But I am not going to force anyone to do anything, but I think it would be fun. So I am all for it if say... 4 other people are up for claiming, I'll join in and really push for it.

what about a mass claim where we agree beforehand that the universal backup (if we have one) claims to be a VT? that way scum can't just off our power roles indiscriminately.

I agree with this thought but still not the massclaim.

Massclaiming is boring and the only people that know if it's a good thing to do are scum.

Massclaiming is boring and the only people that know if it's a good thing to do are scum.

can you expand on that second thought? how do scum know if massclaiming is protown or not?

i guess the implicit question is: in what situations would massclaiming be good? in what ones would it be bad? if possible, do you have specific example setups for each?
