I am not running the math here, but I feel the likelihood we give all our PRs to a scum player is higher with the superpower bullshit.
13 town- 4 scum

Seems like about 3-1 to me; so 75% we give it to a town. Well…100% if we just go SUPERBUNNY (TM)
I think there is a 76% of having a town in all 3 roles vs. a 42% chance if we randomly picked a separate player for each role.
Agreed. I just independently expressed this a little differently but it tallies.

I am hopelessly behind (for now; will fix), but stacking powers up seems unwise to me because one shot powers here function as a sort of reaction test. There’s very little incentive to hide your decisionmaking or the results of it, so players who are tasked with a docsave or copscan or whatever basically have to out their reasoning.

Spreading out also mitigates worst-case scenarios. Greater likelihood a scum ends up with a power, of course, and we should obviously try not to give scum powers lol… (brilliant stuff I know) but the info upside is real. Making more people take committal stances is good.

In conclusion Eden 2024 🇺🇸

I agree but it seems as though the consense is the superpower :(

How about this guys, we give the D/ST and QB to one player, and then the FLEX to another and have the doc save the flex. That way the joat is a difference player from the doc/tracker
I think this is a fine option day one to spread the risk a little.
If we do this, heres my roster

QB: Flum
RB1: Bona
RB2: Glitter
WR1: Colby
WR2: Eden
TE: TFB
FLEX: Jamie
D/ST: Flum
K: Haze
I/R: damo (I would be okay with another today, damo is my strongest scumread yet it is weak)

13 town- 4 scum

Seems like about 3-1 to me; so 75% we give it to a town. Well…100% if we just go SUPERBUNNY (TM)
So 25% odds we give all 3 to scum. The odds of doing that via spreading the votes to my top 3 town reads is almost certainly lower
From an outside pov if one person is 3 PRs there is a 4/17 (23.6%) chance of being scum.

If the 3 PRs are all different the chances of being all town are 13*12*11/17*16*15 = 42%. So the chance of at least one scum PR is 58%.

However on the other hand the chance they are all scum drops to less than 1%.
However, the chance two of the three are scum is very low, and even one piece of info per day is good. We can also force mafia PRs to go on a set path of their actions, and deviating will be very sus

It's less.
Its more

With only 1 person with superpowers its like 4/16

With 3 people as superpowered people its like

4/16 times 3/15 times 2/14 which is like 24/3360

Which simplified is 1/140

So the chance we give all our PRs to scum is either 1/4 with the mega superpowered plan vs 1/140 with the spreading them out plan
Yes, one player being 3 PRs means it's much more likely that all PRs are scum than if we pick 3 different people but ten it's more likely there is at least one scum PR. So both have downside.

Right but like you said, one PR as scum doesn’t hurt town that much, whereas 3 scum PRs (while more unlikely than 1/3 scum PRs) is way more risky and should be avoided

Valid. The compromise you proposed is good.

I feel like there was a tonne of stuff posted from the last time I looked.

Here's where I am at. Don't put me on the roster and keep me on the bench.

I don't know what sort of roster I will put together. There's some of you I really like.
