How is it not townsided? In my mind, town has to coordinate to block each other to stay alive. So yes, it isn't townsided but there has to be coordination.
”how is it not townsided”
“yes, it isn’t townsided”
??
make up your mind kiddo
I think you’re focusing too much on town trying to self preserve by coordinating and forgetting that a possible (if not the best) strategy for town is more likely to shoot everyone asap in a attempt to kill as many mafia as possible as early as possible and that even this statistically is likely to fail miserably (despite of the minuscule odd of it being ridiculously successful too lmao)
coordination isn’t as good as it sound on paper because the fact mafia is playing can break that coordination; for a town plan to work you have to plan something that effectively pins down mafia, which isn’t likely to happen when there are no protective or investigative roles AND repeated roles lol
not only that but the fact scum would have THREE potential kills right off the bat with town having the potential to kill like 1-10 players every night (assuming it’s 13p) means that if town decided to play safe and tried to coordinate something like only target the same person to reduce the amount of disruption/kills they’d still potentially have their numbers diminished absurdly quickly
it’s a bit tricky to tell because the roleblocking could effectively come to play and delay these causalities a bit, but still
just curious but how do you plan on computing something like Player A roleblocks Player B, Player B roleblocks Player C, Player C roleblocks Player A?
it also removes the focus on the day phases making them almost useless when you can just wake up and see literally everyone dead from a single night lol
I think a fun way to reduce the amount of killing power is maybe adding modifiers to these roles like odd/even/prime/not prime and making the roleblocking actually jailing but even so it would be still be pretty insane
I’d say maybe try making it like a discord setup to see how it runs and if it goes well maybe bring to the forums?
