So I was wondering why arent masked games the norm for competitive play here? That would solve the whole meta clearing bs that goes on as well as people staring at one's stats just to see if they agree with their decision or not. It is quite annoying being in a middle of a game, im mafia, almost got the win then suddenly somebody starts getting meta cleared and town wins. Or one person that's obviously mafia will still win just simply because their stats are good and people sheep them. Logic says they're obvious mafia but their stats says win. And they gonna keep their stats good because of how a lot of people stare at them too much. I myself dont base judgement off stats but it seems it's different for a lot others.
Of course there should be a new violation for all of this.
Outing who you are in the game , for clearing yourself or using meta, should be considered OGI , because the game is decked and anonymity is what its all about.
Even for a test to see what the results will be -.-
Like every third round to be a deck round? There is absolutely nothing negative to this, except the users that want to continue throw for each other or the gamethrowers, who will always voice themselves against it.
3: Cheaters will be much more easy to catch , because again of the not knowing who is who.
If before it took 5 games where the cheaters play together and always clear each other, it will take 3 or less for the masked games , because they will townread eachother WITHOUT knowing who they are.
2: Throwers against or for someone also won't know who they are throwing for or against. This would have lot of runners. This will also show which players meta clears himself, so if someone invites his friends to throw for him... We will just know :D
1: If a player meta clears someone but the cheater investigators do not know if they really do it , in masked games , it would be too obvious , because players are not supposed to know who is who. So if someone knows who someone else is - they are meta clearing each other.
Because of we add it, they can't meta clear each other without being caught, cheaters will become too obvious, and players would have trouble throwing for someone or against someone.
