Forum Games / Re: Tsundere Mafia - Game Over

Good game all. Setup was a bit crazy, hard for both sides I think. At 9-2, the numerical odds are highly against scum, they really cannot make a single mistake and must be actively in control of the game at all times, I feel. Cop and jailer tilt the odds even more in favor of town - we got REALLY lucky randomly bagging the cop N1 and avoiding the jailer altogether. And lucky in the first place that the scum team was me (Alex) + Rat. And lucky that there was so much forum downtime exaggerating the inactivity strategy we went with, and that townies lurked for us. I do feel we played somewhat well but the win kind of fell into our lap from luck here.
The setup also worked against town in some ways, with only two scum you aren't likely to get a scum flip until you've nailed the team, which can cause a lot of frustration. Just generally not a ratio I favor. Cid's setup worked better because he ran semi-open, the extra knowledge makes a big difference. I still don't like 9-2 though. >_>
We also both played pretty lazily, Soppy was right about Mai and Tron about me (read her posts on the last day or two, I think she knew I was scum deep down but couldn't/wouldn't act on it). But like the old adage says, sometimes you don't have to outrun the lion, just be faster than the guy behind you. Especially apparent with Leia, where we just sowed a bit of discredit on her and town/Leia herself let it snowball.
