You don't know how to scum hunt. Don't lose the game trying to be a hero.

do you recall this game, where you fos'd the only other blue on day 1. Then the cops inno (Who was clear) on autowin for 5 minutes of day 3


Next time you want to be petty about a game, let me know to screen cap my role icon so I can explain PoE to your simple .

comp setups like TEO, sds

where there is no clear who can just take hammer


No setup is immune to the "pander to the clear because all we do is pointfarm" meta. If you think that, you're delusional.

What's the point of NL'ing on mylo due to bad pr if you may not get better chances without a clear alive?



Zovea says

If the sheriff is janned n1 in Frontier Justice the only reason to lynch is because you have confirmed mafia. Letting claims play out to D2 is superior in every way than letting someone you know can't scumhunt lead/hammer a baseless lynch.

In SDS you ask for bomb to out and get claims.

They are the same argument. When's the last time you've been in a game where anyone but the clear had control over the lynch?


2013 I think

If there's no such a threat or NL'ing favors mafia more than town


More people favors mafia. Town dying increases the odds/ability of town to fos/guess correctly.


PatrykSzczescie says

the game might proceed to meteor and town will be forced to lynch.


This is a byproduct of mling a PR during a ml. It's a shame that ml's are narrowed down the 50/50's because of the collectivist pointfarming meta.

I didn't go to Harvard, but I can assure you saying

"don't self vote 3 minutes into the day, without scum hunting for a clear that will probably mishammer"

and

"NL on mylo no matter what because Zovea said so"

have little, to no similarities

Funny how when this thread was "Stop self voting for PR's" you didn't have any complaints.

one i agree with one i do not

your OP is one glistening example of why the current playerbase sucks


Why would you post this? Are lynches something people come together to decide and enact. F*CK NO!

Funny how when this thread was "Stop self voting for PR's" you didn't have any complaints. Maybe before questioning the caliber of player I am, you evaluate whether letting an idiot guess for me is superior to letting the game continue to the next day.

aren't you supposed to be a good player, zovea?

why are u making such a generic statement...

you don't nl on mylo if nl'ing is guaranteed to get u 3way no clears -- your OP is one glistening example of why the current playerbase sucks
over 7 years
What you're saying here is wayyy too generic. Say you mean, fancypants d1, usually its suboptimal to lynch;

but say you have an outted un cc ed cop and with an inno blue, 2 blues, 2 mafias & dead doc in fancypants ( 6 - total mylo )

If you NL, cop dies into 5 way, then blue dies into 3 way no clear

if you lynch ( same exact pool, same exact chances ) - you get a 4 way + clear blue

Which sometimes is better.
over 7 years
This all depends on the situation you are. The main purpose of NL'ing on mylo is making it 3way instead of 4way without any clears, to make mafia kill an unclear. Players usually NL on mylo when it's suboptimal for town, such as when there are so many clears that mafia can proceed to kill them until 3way, without the need to kill a single unclear. Some pr's are useful when there's a lynch on mylo, such as gunsmith, which can give a gun for a mislynch, or drunk on 6way. Also, with a stalker in a game, it's better to lynch on mylo yet not all roles have been investigated by the mafia.

The purpose of NL'ing on mylo is to force mafia to kill, otherwise they'll be investigated or put down in another way. If there's no such a threat or NL'ing favors mafia more than town, the game might proceed to meteor and town will be forced to lynch.
