BTXVI: Boons Ahoy! Spectator Thread

[Theta Alpine]

yeah it is unfortunately safer for drew to
well
play it safe there
the point of a hammer test is to either have a hidden gun or such able to kill scum or block their kill if they jump for it and make it blindingly obvious that they were scum in doing so
or well
to clear out suspicion of someone so that they are not an option if you have all decided that you are fine losing to them if they are scum

this was a case of the latter though drew suspected it was a case of the former i think
in either case though if you put a scum up for hammer test you have probably lost the game anyways

kind of a series of unlucky coincidences for town though
first of all mala and norwegian both failed to get completely cleared due to how i died which has led to the current situation where norwegians slot ended up valid for elim
then yeah
drew ended up stopping his own kill and accidentally produced a false guilty on dragons

this game was strongly town sided especially if the kraken had played more openly about their role and worked with town
scum did not have that much power and initially at the start of the game and only knowing scums power roles i thought this was a traitor game
my second thought was that town then did not have much power and you can see in day one what i thought about the role students of prudence claimed

even if that role in the end could only catch my role as a true positive town still had quite a lot of power when all was said and done

actually correct me if i am wrong but
if flippy had targeted peregrine flippy would have died correct

if that is the case all three of the scum team were susceptible to investigations of some type

[Enchant]

No.

Peregrine was positive for weak role

[Boonskiies]

Nah, Flippy wouldn’t have died if Peregrine was targeted by them because Ascetic.

[Boonskiies]

It's not trolling, Drew did right thing. If there's roleblocker/jail claim, i for example never try to get self killed like that. Better safe than sorry.

I was mostly kidding about it.

I’ve said it was fair, especially since he didn’t know what the hell was going on haha

[Theta Alpine]

ahhh fair
well that is not as bad then but still
pretty town sided setup

we tossed enough chaos into the mix that we ended up here though so

[Boonskiies]

Yeah, ended up being great, right on par with most of my BT games. Like i said, for a moment I got worried that maybe since i hadn’t done it in a while, i was off, but i do like a generally lean town in BT game because it’s wacky enough for chaos to take over for scum

[Ranger]

Last night, I had a thought about Klick, and how I've seen his play before and his play here seems irrational and stubborn compared to prior towngames in a way I feel suspect; he is far more tunneled and closed off than is typical of a town game.

I appreciate being remembered at all.

Perhaps if it was sooner, you could've read what I said and changed course of the game more positively prior to mylo.

[Ranger]

i think he's worried about possible Jailkeeper Frogs. Idk, though.

Drew was the only player in the game to not know why his Frogs kill failed.

Slow-rolling's the correct play until he gained the info on how.

He

should

have it now, so now know a Frogs kill is safe. Game likely ends soon accordingly.

[Theta Alpine]

game ends automatically if there is a miselimination i believe
since at that point drew just has to kill and scum win

[Boonskiies]

"I don't rly know what this is based off of but from my perspective, hammertesting drew is immediately my best play."

unfortunately, not going to age well.

[Enchant]

THIS IS STILL GOING

[Boonskiies]

It is town sided on a mech level, but there’s just a lot of town roles that do things, but don’t really do anything, so the high amount of town roles played against town here for sure.


I don’t think I would change anything with the given circumstances.

Yes, Mutations i would clear up more, but that took me this game to really see it, and see how I can do that, and what the next step I can take the BooneyToonz games.

But I do really like this balance wise.

I think I would give scum a little more power onto the Theta slot if I could do it differently, but even then. Scum were close to a victory even before the STD Blocked Kill shenanigans.

One of the more fun games I’ve modded to watch for sure.
