Out of curiousity iviv (and jedi) is the intention to balance the game 50/50?

I think that's the ideal although it is difficult to judge as the balance is heavily influenced by the strength of the players. It seems it's much easier for scum to win when the standard of play is low, as players improve the balance will swing toward town so ideally the make up of the roles in the game should reflect the expected ability of the players

Assuming the mafia don't kill one another like the last game

Yes and no on the jailer. It is a combination doctor and role blocker, which solves the game breaking situation of a cop claiming his role day 1 and having the doctor protect him every night as he searches out the scum.

Doctors usually have a restriction preventing them protecting the same person twice in a row, or they can't protect themselves. In closed setups the scum can also kill someone other than the proclaimed Cop and raise suspicion that he was bussing a scumbro.

bit slow going

Spectator doc is up, trust me if you want a link to it, easier to talk about the current game in there as there's no chance of it being seen, obviously.

On a slightly unrelated note to game 5, have just come back from an Indian where someone ordered the Shami Kebab. It amused me.

Indeed, it's very tasty It's also Lister's favourite food in Red Dwarf which is where I originally got it from.

Did you lynch him?

 

[chriscubed]

So... when's the next game?

 

[Egon]

I'd be up for it, but both fortyseven and Malteser said the spectator doc that they probably wouldn't be playing again.

Hopefully they could be convinced otherwise... either way we are thin on the ground.

 

[Leprechaun312]

I'm up for another

 

[Brabbinho]

I'm always game.

47 I think I unfairly voted for you this time because of your mistake in the prior game. I'll not do this again

I'll play if you are desperate but I found I had less time to post last game which worked against me. That may continue.

 

[Brabbinho]

I think as a tactic booting lurkers doesn't help. So might have to address that next time

 

[Brabbinho]

Malteser said he struggled to remember who is who. Is it worth folks making some more unique sigs to help that for the next game?

i though mine was pretty unique

 

[Shamikebab]

Key is to look at the name on the left
