I really would have preferred what I said in #34.
Let's compare 3 mafias vs 4 mafias games, assuming 3 mislynches D1+D2:
3 Mafias game:
Day # |
Townie Count # |
Mafia Count # |
1 |
9 |
3 |
2 |
6 |
3 |
3 |
4 |
2 |
4 |
3 |
1 |
4 Mafias game:
Day # |
Townie Count # |
Mafia Count # |
1 |
9 |
4 |
2 |
6 |
4 |
3 |
4 |
3 |
4 |
3 |
2 |
5 |
2 |
1 |
It's not only that the 2nd one seems prettier on paper (like, always town count vs mafia count difference is 1 at LYLO in almost all setups, but not here. Here its 2)
It's also about the fact that the setup is vanilla vs vanilla, except all the special mechanics, are HEAVILY TOWN FAVORED. That should be grounds enough to add that 1 mafia slot. The game doesn't change much - the town still can afford exactly 3 mislynches.

I wish you guys reconsidered it.
