I only roleblocked Vector N2, for that matter. What happened with Vector/Secretdorf N1?

I guarded Secretdorf from being killed or seduced. I was told it was an "uneventful Night".

... Why? I... But why?

We had, in this game, the following:

1 Mafia Roleblocker
1 Mafioso
1 Survivor Watcher
1 Mafia-Executioner One-Shot Vigilante Role Cop
1 Mafia-Executioner Combined Doctor Psychologist
1 Cult Leader/something
3 Vanilla Townies

That's... That's not really a balanced game.

And the reason it's not anywhere near balanced is because the "Town" isn't a Town at all. It's just one faction needing to die for the other 3 and a half factions to win, but half of those factions are diametrically opposed to each other.

Also, I might have been a Bodyguard instead of a Doctor, but I can't be sure because my role was not very clear.

That's actually why I didn't guard Caz. I thought it would kill me instead.

Your role title would seem to imply as much:

webadict was terminated.
Player Name: webadict. Role Name: Wendy Dorset, Bodyguard. "Eco Party"-Aligned.

It looks like there were 2 mafia, 1 third-party, and 6 town that were mutually exclusively cut in half.

I do agree that basically means this was a four faction game with only 3 townies.

At best 3 town could win (either the seducer side or the vanilla side), but I think this was hinted at pretty clearly by Skynet?

1 Cult Leader/something

"Seduction" let me lovers myself to another player until next Day end. If they were the Sarah Connor, I won. If not, then the death of one of us guaranteed the death of the other. We would not have changed alignments.

The game should've been subtitled as "Fuck this Town in particular."

It was interesting. It was very interesting.

As far as I can tell, it wasn't balanced, though.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

Would you like to play a game of Mafia? The subforum is always open to new players.

This game was so unbalanced that if you added 3 more Vanilla Townies, it still wouldn't be Town favored.

Oh weird... so at best, two out of three town factions could win.

"Fuck Day 3 Webadict Now"

There were two "town" factions trying to get Sarah Connor. The eco party were the standard ones that wanted to lynch her. The seducer party wanted to get her at night.

Webadict's valid complaint is that means only three players wanted to lynch Sarah Connor during the day.

Three players, out of nine. How does the eco party win that?
