All Role PMs out. I’ll start this up hopefully tomorrow afternoon, and then there will be a 3 day period for discussion, after which a doll maker will be LIFTED FROM THE MINES

to a life of a babushka

to have all of Mother Russia’s hopes and dreams on their shoulders.

They will then have up to 24 hours to submit their Doll Making Orders.

Anyone else who wants to can submit an order to me privately by PM as well and it will be graded THIS MUST BE DONE BEFORE THE DOLLMAKER IS MADE PUBLIC to be graded for credit

I didn’t read the set up and I am totally lost. Anyhow, I still don’t really get it, who organizes the dolls? How many scum?

Edited signup post into the 2nd post in thread

#11

OK, so we just need 2 more town and we win. TTTT block ftw

#12

Also edited examples to be for an 8p game which this is

#13

It’s randomly selected after 3 days :pensive:

I havent rly thought too hard abt strats but the obvious thing is to try to figure out unlikely pairs but that seems harder without lynches

#14

Actually i have no idea what the psychology behind pairings are like since without any stakes scum can just do whatever and it doesnt matter

#15

btw the plain english for the dollmaker:

put ur top two townreads in first and then order every doll so that no one is next to a plausible partber

im town

:wig:

#18

The goal here is to make it as obvious as possible that you’re not Scum. The problem gets worse if one of the top two global Town Reads is then selected to act as Doll Maker.

Anyway, I’m not sure how really to do this. My best take is to have everyone submit an order for what they would do, at around the same time, and see what shakes out.

I mean, the easy way out is to just sheep Elli no matter what. The problem is if he’s scum, he’s probably adequate enough to make it 72 hours. So the solution is…play super towny, basically.

#21

Yeah but there’s no votes, no flips, and nothing but us strategizing and trying to argue what should be the case. I don’t know whether it makes sense to try and most of us agree on a potential order or variations depending on who gets picked, but I know I’m not going to simply rely on Elli here.

Nanook has already publicly asked Elli for input, and is arguing that anyone sheep them. So the partner equity is higher than random? I know I wouldn’t place them together, even if I solidly thought Nanook was Town.

In my opinion, not trying to organize the game some way but just depend on one player here doesn’t maximize our odds of getting it right. Which are already low.

#22

The doll organizer should try to organize like this:

TT ST ST

Whoever is revealed as the dollmaker or whatever the role is called should have 3 locktown reads and 1 lockscum read. Lockscum read in position 3 and locktown reads in positions 1,2,4 makes the chance of town victory fairly high.

if any of you guys are good at that kind of math can you EV the win chance if the above situation is true?
