Discussion on Game Balance
At the end of Open 88 it was proposed that this setup inherently favors Town. By randomly lynching, the Town has ~60% chance of winning. However, truly random lynches will not occur in practice because scum cannot and will not lynch themselves; further, it was noted that scum voting each other up to L-1 would make them consistently look great under vote analysis. It was also discussed that massclaim should occur either early Day 2 or very late Day 1 to keep scum Lover claims as implausible as possible.
