didn't mods used to pick the setups every round? like way back when? that'd be pretty cool. The mods usually have good taste.

its a mystery why people call yyc "coinflip"


It's a mystery why people like roulette in competitive

People can play fun, uncompetitive setups, OUTSIDE of competitive. Garbage comp choice imo

because typically the game gets decided by the result of the N1 kill and actions.

Getting Fiddled =/= Dying what the hell Arcbell

yeah getting fiddled is just an invitation to ISP too or spam votelogs. Then you have people thinking that faking fiddled is a really cool idea because they can call it a strategy while doing nothing.

Roles that encourage and enable people to ISP are bad.

the real question is why would a role that incapacitates a person from talking in a game that is primarily based in talking be competitive


Well killing roles also incapacitate the town from talking but I don't see you complaining about those.


killing is an aspect of the game that is required to establish conflict between the two teams. it's also a primary function of mafia, considering the majority of mafia roles have the ability to kill.

incapacitating talking, however, directly inhibits a player from participating and also fundamentally destroys the idea of a mafia game in a chat setting, where talking is so much more crucial as opposed to a setting such as forum mafia.

So you're saying that nobody should die in a mafia game, ever

ok, but the problem is the game of mafia is based around reads. you cannot get reads if you cannot see what is going on. if youre dead n1, your reads dont matter because no one provided them. but if youre fiddled (which arguably clears you) you could potentially be hammering between two people who you haven't read.

Fiddler is a pretty bad role

I'd wait to see what Vancy decides about Manhunt and whether Fiddler is actually enabled in Main or not.


Why would fiddler not be enabled in main?


I never enabled it because it is a terrible role that inhibits communication in a social game. It really doesn't belong in ranked, much less comp.

I like that Vancy's been using it to promote some older setups too that sort of fell by the wayside.



Yeah I suggested that to him when he said he wasn't sure what to do with it.
