Clearly the best trio to have is 6,7,8 because that minimizes the chance of you busting. But you will not get 6,7,8 every single time. I simulated each of the near-center trios, as well as a few others, to find the chance of busting. The only-12, only-7, and only-8 are there more for the probability...

I did indeed have the order wrong. Fixed.

This is something I have noticed for a long time: the timers for debate and Hunter kills are too short. Hunter kills only give 30 seconds. Usually the hunters are not expecting to die, and suddenly they have to kill someone quickly. I usually try to get some discussion going (so they do not, for exa...

The whole argument seems to break down after looking at MafiaScum and seeing that they use a good voting system and, more importantly, they play over many weeks. That means players have more time to do actual analysis and beginners can at least learn some basic behaviors before they become dangerous...

I disagree with the idea of random lynching day 1. In a 12-player game (assuming no LG and witch does not save) there are 9 non-werewolves. If players abstain day 1, there is a 2/9 chance that the Fortune Teller will be attacked before day 2. If they lynch randomly day 1, there is a 3/9 chance of th...

Perhaps they are trying to go in order from 6 to 10 or something. Remember that you can strategize via chat (but the creature will hear)...

I wrote a post in the generic suggestions thread about adding the Not Alone: Exploration expansion. The expansion just consists of some new Survival and Hunt cards, and 10 new places to replace the existing ones: 1 = Nexus (copy any place 2-5; 2x assimilation if anyone is caught here) 2 = Oasis (tak...

For what it is worth: On the first turn I almost always go to 2 or perhaps 4, because most experienced creatures seem to pounce on 1+5 or 3+5 like every single turn. Even if I get caught on 2, the chances are that someone else was able to get into 5 because the creature went out of their way. Otherw...

I don't like the way the ELO ratings work. When I lose, my rating drops 40-80 points in a single game (especially when I am a werewolf, as I lose against like 9 players). When I win, since it treats a win as a tie with everyone on your team, it usually means I don't gain a single point. It would be ...

Are the promo Artefacts or the Exploration expansion going to ever be added?
