I didn't think my Unlyncher + Miller combo twist was too much for basic. They were a balance and an interesting little thing I think. Opinions?

It was.

Basic implies an expectation of learning the flow of the game and not having overly complicated roles.

No one would suspect an Unlyncher. That's not even rare in advanced games, it's almost unheard of.

So right off the bat whoever gets that role is at somewhat of a disadvantage.

Now I get what you tried to do with the Miller/Unlyncher dynamic but given that this is a basic game we can't really expect the players to use advanced tactics and think ahead.

What is likely to happen more often than not is the Unlyncher will never vote the Miller and have an unreasonble belief in their towniness. This will probably make everyone suspicious when they notice. The mafia might NK the Unlyncher thinking he's a cop, the cop might investigate the Miller or Unlyncher, and either of them might get lynched because of that behavior. It worked out fine this time but I don't think that was entirely balanced.

 

Anyway good game everyone and thank you for modding BG. It was a cool theme and I had a lot of fun.

And I'd again like to apologize for bailing on the first day. Really not cool and I'll try not to let that happen anymore.

I quit for 2 reasons, 1 I really felt the cases on day 1 were just way to farfetched. None of them really had any substance except for Wombat's case on Rand which annoyed me. 2 I had to cut back on games for personal reasons so I quit this one, until I quit only 1 person really suspected me so I didn't think it would turn out the way it did and for that I'm sorry JLM.
