satan is a good poster. But only when he posts less than he usually does.


Satan's high achieving strat: lurk on forums without posting. Once you get an opening, jump right in with a witty statement.

connor i think A&D sucks but the reason most A&D games are lost is because the BP is bad which isn't really luck unless you're counting it in the sense of whoever rolls it


that's exactly the luck i'm talking about. the luck of rolling the side that is more likely to win, in a series of games

lashka, i'm starting to think you don't even know why we have thresholds in the first place because if you did you wouldn't be so adamant in the face of logic

A&D isn't even that imbalanced in Scum's favor when you actually play it. I assume the winrate comes from the fact that one player gets rolled into lead the game 100% no matter what every day, even having sole control of the only mislynch with the gun, and a lot of people on EM are both arrogant and subpar at playing town roles which leads into total meltdowns.

actually pranay, i've never liked you, i just tried to tolerate you because i thought you got an overly bad rep. then you started accusing me of cheating baselessly and then proceeded to ramp up your manchild affectation to the nth degree and now here we are.

the reason mods should stop overly unbalanced setups from being played is because it removes player skill - the crux of competition - from deciding who wins. if the game is too difficult for town, then the game was basically decided when the roles were handed out at the start of the game. the reason this is an issue because it turns into a landslide of players winning points and thus trophies because they were lucky enough to roll scum more often than their competitors. it detracts from the skill aspect of the game because you need a much more substantial amount of skill to overcome the difficulty, more than can be consistently applied over a large amount of games when all other luck is factored in

Payouts are only relevant on outright pointfarms. Only townsided setups are pointfarms. Scumsided setups literally cannot be pointfarmed, unless they're reversed (in which case, the inverse rules apply).


it "can't" be pointfarmed because you have to be "lucky" to roll scum all the time - except someone has to be scum every game, so there will always be the "lucky" few. get "lucky" a few times, and you have the advantage. if the setup is popular it's more likely for players to get "lucky"

these are undeniable facts


Every
Setup
Involves
Luck


some much more so than others, and some are played with the luck factor explicitly in mind.

connor, edark, slow, are kind of users who agree with each other no matter what. When i agreed with all 3 of them while did something good, they liked me. I let connor mod on delcatty, so he was all happy and all. Then when things didnt go well for him, he didn't like me.


wasn't that the same as you and arcbell though?
