Aren't set-ups usually balanced on the assumption that town is slightly more likely than would happen randomly to win? And therefore playing randomly as town is almost never a good idea?

I put a second vote on you, not even realizing it was second. L-1 is two votes. You're being overly cautious and scared.

Anyone good at quick maths - does this set-up favor town or scum if played out randomly?
Actually...town.

But random ruins the game.

looks swingy to me, but depends on if town drunk has positive or negative powers i guess.
town drunk has been dropped.
mykonian wrote:hoopla, don't have the time now, but I would say that it is quite town sided.
really - this was done with time in mind. it's just a simple dice roll and some votes. if people deem it town-sided random lynches seem perfectly viable.

Actually playing random is a bad idea because it ignores any chance of scum losing for actually being scummy.

fair enough gang. was merely as suggestion - my logic with this was, how un-random will voting reasons be after 30 minutes of talk? if anything it makes it simple for clever scum to orchestrate lynches when people are searching for reasons.

KMD hasn't said a thing about others, involved in theory discussion, and plays the obvious towny. Points at scum trying not to look active lurking.

connection fell away, sorry.

It's not the point of the game. We're here to pick up on who is scummy and scum hunt. If we're lynching randomly you take out the human element and scum have better chance of survival.

I don't find it that scummy, but its something, unlike anything else.
