Let’s be real here: Did the other thread even improve townplay, or was everything dependent on the individuals playing the game and improving their games naturally?
oh yeah it probably did nothing but i feel like advice for wolfing is a lot more easily generalisable than advice on villaging
I mean, if you want to make it, then there is nothing wrong with it. It’s probably best to make it sooner than later.
Here’s how GameFAQs wolves dealt with me as town.
- Pray day 1
- Strongman me n1
It got so bad that hosts stopped putting Strongman in games.
mostly people just used it to be passive aggressive about games that just ended
You can say I am the example.
…okay, I guess I’ll fix that.
note to self
start putting farmer in games
if you get nightkilled you submit a list and the top town on it becomes the farmer
the funniest part is when the mafia godfather becomes the mafia farmer
This is why mountainous is good
Wolves can kill Achro night one to balance out the game
Join my mountainous when it opens
It almost worked anywsy.
True. We would’ve.
True. So true.
I certainly will.
That is a name I haven’t seen for while I remember vaguely
That means I should include strongman in every game I host if you play in it.
Don’t worry. I gotchu.
Purgatory will have no night kills,
have fun if you join
Oh yeah, I am still convinced that not rescinding the 3p claim was a throw.
I guess the fact it flipped town was a lesson to never quickhammer, but Jake did post before the hammer, and he didn’t rescind during that time - despite being on people’s kill lists.
I could kinda maybe accept the 3p claim if the player isn’t under threat of being killed, but Jake definitely was, and him claiming 3p led to some of our solving being mistaken - because we had to assume one of the 3p claims was lying. Our neighborhood had figured out that the setup was 10/3/2 with Hazard’s info, and with Jake + Guava + Raj as claimed or indirectly claimed 3ps, one of them had to be mafia instead.
The fakeclaim also contributed to Kiiruma’s death, because there being two roles tied to what seemed like a 3p killer seemed suspicious. And it’s not like Jake needed to fakeclaim to protect himself - there were a lot of people the evils would’ve wanted dead before him, most likely. With Kiiruma and Jake dying to town, we also got to LyLo, which could’ve been avoided - without them dying, Robyn probably dies instead, and it’s possible that we would find Frost right after.
All in all, if there was a worst fakeclaim award, I’d nominate this one in a heartbeat. I’m not saying this in a toxic manner; I just think it was really bad and you should never do it again, Jake.
Agreed.
There are definitely instances where claiming neutral as town is a good thing
This was not one of them
