Generally it is mostly simplifying the game, by grouping people.
PRs are also significantly nerfed.
And the general benefit of having to read less people is not really countable in odds, unfortunately.
But will end up as (I hope) more accurate reads from most of a game.
It’s kind of also a dillema for mafia.
If they claim no PR, they can freely kill them. But then town is going to do murder spree in vanilla zone, having 5 clears.
If they claim PR, going murder spree in PR zone will out a mafia who claimed it in the end.
Don’t get me wrong, on one of first games on BMG (ToS forum), I claimed PR as mafia and got 2 town PRs lynched. It was massive missplay from town. But also led into me being outed afterwards.
Luckily wasting 3 days on searching me meant that my last teammate was in LyLo on next day and managed to win this.
So the grouping and following actions need to be smart.
However it is leading to 1-2 mafia being outed this way pretty much always.
Unless they no contest it and we have like 5 d1 clears.
