if we're freeing A&D

Hibikiover 11 years ago

can we at least remake it again to so that maybe the point payout will be better this time?

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
gambler's fallacy. bye.

if you win 55%~ of your town games and 75% of your scum games in an a&d round, you'll probably at least get bronze.

It's 4 a.m. somewhere in the world and that somewhere is Scotland, and somewhere in Scotland Connor is feverishly scraping his face across his keyboard in an attempt to undermine the mountains of logic and evidence poised against him.

The "luck" of rolling scum in a scumsided setup repeatedly, unlikely that it is from the very start due to simple probability (you know, 3/9 chance you roll mafia, 6/9 chance you roll town, basic math), is balanced out by the fact... mafia wins get less points! Payouts solved your problem years ago.

He is frustrated. He is mad. He is wrong. He is... Connor.

yeah but if you're not winning enough games as town to compensate then you don't deserve a trophy in the first place

rolling scum too much in a&d is a disadvantage
50 points is better than 0 points

He's basically arguing that "sometimes the town fails incredibly even when the BP has gun due to them having bad reads or players and therefore the setup's inherently scumsided"
no, i'm not

i am literally being ignored and misrepresented in this entire thread because you think i am on a crusade against A&D - if i was on a crusade against A&D, this thread wouldn't exist the way it does.

It isn't "lucky" to roll scum in A&D because not only is it not scumsided in practice but you also only get 50 points
