I would say you were acting TOO BD at D1, which made you a great convert target; and if not for Alice, you would probably get converted.
Obviously using the full time of the day would also be great (but thatā€™s to every BD in this game).

If youā€™re playing good, thatā€™s great.
If you think you have a target on your back for playing good, itā€™s not a bad idea to ask for protectives

A problem a ton of people are bringing up is that being too townie is a death sentence.
Thatā€™s bullshit.

Iā€™m not saying itā€™s a death sentence. But the chances of being converted obviously get increased.

#669

dont be afraid to be townie if your town, it kinda helps as its easier to tell if your converted via tone changes and the like

#670

I donā€™t have a great counter argument for this.
Itā€™s a rely on other players thing which sucks

#671

I think there is a sweet spot. If you are 100% townie, you get protected (and converted). If you are scummy, you neither get attacked nor converted.

#672

You donā€™t really want to make the foundation for a gamesolve just to be converted d1 and see how otherā€™s start picking your scum buddies apart using it.

But thatā€™s obviously playing around a conversion and not enjoyable for me.

#673

If Iā€™m going to be entirely honest, thatā€™s the problem with conversion in forum mafia.

See hereā€™s my thing: Iā€™ve been deemed ā€œtoo townieā€ and not been protected. In this game, you can only trust yourself if youā€™re town. You canā€™t rely on Protectives being there.

If you change you playstyle to reflect it, then I find that ideal over oozing townie and relying on protectives who could easily make mistakes.

I donā€™t necessarily mean real protectives. I mean ā€œmaking scum thinks protectives will 100% protect meā€. Quasi a bait.

Oh yeah, I highly recommend doing that if you find yourself looking too townie.

#677

Tbh Iā€™d just ask for protection
That would really fuck with scum

#678

Anyways

Convenient segue into game balance

#679

My first game ever here I was deemed Townlock. Everyone was asking ppl to protect me. Since everyone thought ā€œoh well So and so will protect themā€ā€¦I died. No protectives on me after asking for it.

Moral of the Story: Do what you can to survive.

Highkey that was a result of poor town play
