The sides seemed fine, it was the daily mechanics that seemed a bit off. Seems like some of the "challenges" were pretty easy to control for a factional side with a board to discuss on.

Yea, the challenges were weird.

My only goal in the game was to survive long enough to cut the fuck out of that rope.

14 town
4 mutants
5 mafia
2 cult
2 serial killers
3 rando third party

+ many scum roles discarded I think?

Of course there's always a large amount of town because they cannot kill at night (minus vig) and do not know each other. It's usually 1/5th scum or 1/4th scum I think, but now more than half were scum of some sort and town was even in a minority. Even with a successful lynch each day they might have lost lol.

So I think the numbers were off actually, but also yeah the challenges made it harder.

There were also a fuckload of kills. I mean, every night was a literal bloodbath. Five days is crazy for a mafia game to last with this many players.

And a handful of modkills didn't help town.

I chose my role <3 I figured it was safe since the one I discarded was Vanilla lol But then discarded roles weren't shown anyway hahaa <3

Exactly!

I threw away Mafia Puppetmaster and Mafia Doctor.

I was surprised day one didn't have a giant call for everyone to list the roles they had thrown away.

You forgot Schrauben! Lol.

Pretty amazing to make it to the end with a full team, didn't expect there to be so many third party roles. Everyone did pretty great considering.

How RUDE, you didnt' want to join us :P

Regardless though, mafia did a great job blending in and even with a better balance they would have killed it I think. I had no clue there were so many left, I thought we were dealing with one or two more scum lmao xD

ie. I don't think the unbalancedness made it any easier for mafia to win - it had a role in town losing this game the second it started probably but for mafia there was still a lot to overcome.

ie: Vernon lol

The electrical chair day could've been disaster for us if you had picked two of us to face the music.

Yeah the day I was killed started when I was at work, I crashed as soon as I got home, and it was over before I even woke up. On any normal day I would've been able to defend myself but with how short that day was I had no shot. Really pissed me off.
