the fun thing about this book is that literally nothing interesting happens but you have no idea what happened in the past which is where the tension comes from

alright, I went and did the same thing for all completed MU games that started in 2022 or 2023 (excluding turbos)
my spreadsheet is here
high level results:
- overall the town winrate on MU during this time period was about 42%
- this goes up to 46% if you exclude champs/hydra events/subforums and up to 53% if you exclude mashes and light games
- the town winrate when town was executed day 1 was about 35%. when mafia was executed day 1, this rose to about 55%. this does not support the âkilling scum day 1 is badâ theory.
Overall MU Winrates:
Town: ~42% (62/146)
Mafia: ~55% (80/146)
Draw: ~3% (4/146)
MU Winrates (minus champs/hydra event/subforums)
Town: ~46% (53/116)
Mafia: ~51% (59/116)
Draw: ~3% (4/116)
MU Winrates (minus champs/hydra event/subforums/mashes/light games)
Town: ~53% (40/76)
Mafia: ~43% (33/76)
Draw: ~4% (3/76)
MU Winrates (all game types, town is executed day 1):
Town: ~35% (33/93)
Mafia: ~61% (57/93)
Draw: ~3% (3/93)
MU Winrates (all game types, mafia is executed day 1):
Town: ~55% (27/49)
Mafia: ~43% (21/49)
Draw: ~2% (1/49)
MU Winrates (all game types, no one is executed day 1):
Town: ~33% (1/3)
Mafia: ~67% (2/3)
MU Winrates (all game types, a villager and a mafia are both executed simultaneously at EoD1):
Town: 1/1 (100%)
I may have missed other examples of this type.

maybe we could make a thread about it
an âinitiative,â you could call it
you know, to improve townplay on the site

jeez
it sure does suck to remember someone who you respect state a negative opinion on something you share the opinion on, yet still engage with
Happy Valentineâs Day.
Thatâs way too low
Mafiascum uses town sized setups to increase their town rates iirc

Town sized?
Like the entire game takes place across a town? Iâm not sure how that helps increase winrates but sure

now that I think about it I noticed a stark decrease in villager terminology which may correlate to town win rate decreasing

Do you hate that there is such a paradox itself? Or do you hate reading such discussions about it and consider it dry or confusing? Or something else?
I hadnât heard of this particular paradox before, but I understand it and think it sounds quite interesting actually. 
Though I can imagine reading it this way might be somewhat dull.
