That’s what I was wondering
Achro said that on other sites, they don’t have a low town winrate.
So I was wondering what aren’t we doing?
talking about the game enough
We aren’t executing wolves enough.
also looks at moderator badge before considering next words
the actions of a few bad actors can drastically reduce a team’s chance to win
no i will not elaborate further

Teamwork game effort can be sabotaged be a scroogey few?
If you mean Mafia Universe, I think it’s because players tend to be very polarized and are familiar with each other’s town tells and wolf tells. In plenty of games I found one or two players townreading like three or four players solely for meta tells. It’s very difficult for wolves to fight against these meta clears and so they tend to lose more often. It also leads to wolves being more demotivated and being caught even easier.

So essentially is it because people understand each other more?
You also have two or three players who are considered strong town players and always get to decide the lynches and they often have like two wolves pegged down from day 1.
idk, i feel like the average MU game relies on meta significantly less than people on fol do
Yes. I’ve found this is very strong in the Epicmafia part of Mafia Universe. In mashes there are also players who lead town and get to pick shot lists often ranging around ~50% accuracy. Worst that can happen is the strong town players randing the wolf alignment and misleading town, but then they’re eventually found for being very wrong when they shouldn’t.

Hmmmm
Understanding each other…
Then I have no idea what’s the problem. I only know that in MU games I have an idea of most players’ town and wolf ranges. I can tell, for example, that player A is pretty good as wolf and therefore I should trust them with caution, while player B is pretty obvious as wolf and therefore if they sound pretty towny most likely they just are.
It also helps the strongest wolf players are also the strongest town players and so if they fail to find wolves and aren’t nightkilled early they’re pretty easily caught for being alive and for being too wrong to be town.

Though numbers also play a big role. If town has mislynched the first three days the thread is gonna be very messy and it’s gonna be pretty difficult for town to overcome because they’ll keep turning on each other.
ngl i have a bad feeling the instant i end up going to bed scum are going to start being vocal and i’m not going to be able to defend myself
Yes Marl I am about to get vocal
Leafia do you still want to-
Okay okay I am done with these jokes
on fol “The best town players” are usually killed n1 or no one is confident and loud enough to get them over later in the game
so
/shrug
this game not having nightkills probably helps against that a bit
Sadly I felt the game got stale because “we do not provide townreads because these townreads can get converted”
yeah that take is unbelievably dumb like i said at the time

you need to know who everyone reads as what at all stages of the game to find differences between the two
