It's like it was made for you.

Miller has the same purpose as Townsperson, just with an added risk if the Detective investigates them. I think it would be more fun to have that role instead of just a regular townie.

Woah

The one nice thing about not having a power role as a Townie is that you have nothing to lose. I'm sure that's why I was left alive for as long as I was, since shadow knew I wasn't a threat power-wise.

The more I think about this game, the more I actually sort of liked it. Clues are definitely fun to figure out, but I had a more interesting time trying to convince people that TiKels and Cardinal were Mafia (regardless of what Azrael was saying) through my own extensive analysis of voting patterns. I guess if the original point of the game is behavioral analysis, then this one was a success. A majority of what we based things on was behavior.

This made me realize that as long as I'm mafia, I need to be sporadic and unpredictable.

Actually, scratch that, that's always a good plan.

Yeah, that's always a good plan. In this case, you and Card seemed so adamant about lynching Tempz that it seemed odd. In my experience on Mafia side, it is usually better to not try to vote as a group or anything like that, until you know you can successfully bandwagon someone without all Mafia voting for that person. Otherwise it seems a little suspicious.

I was trying to vote as inconspicuously as possible, which, for the most part, worked. (Only?) you noticed.

Trying to vote inconspicuously is what gave away your role :P

I think the best strategy is to try to act the way you would if you were Town. As for voting, you should try not to vote with a Mafia bandwagon at the beginning, and you should make sure not to consistently vote in lockstep with other Mafia members.

Woah

I didn't think it was all that inconspicuous as both he and Cardinal voted the exact same way each day (including switching votes, and in one case not switching at all after everyone else did). Unless the "inconspicuous" part is claiming to vote for someone for no reason or the lulz, in which case I find that even more suspicious. :P

I also did notice that Cardinal was the more aggressive voter, and he seemed to follow along, so your conclusion about his role definitely seemed sound.

I apologize in advance if any of this needs clarification. I've been out drinking all night and just got home. If no one sees this, and no clarification is necessary, then all is well. Booyah.

I didn't say it was actually inconspicuous, just that he was trying to be inconspicuous ^^

NudeRaider -- blessed innocent soul knows nothing of the strife we had before EUDs were discovered :teehee:
[2026-6-23. : 3:29 am]
DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.
[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
