Serialkiller Gamethrowing?

[< blank >]

Is it considered gamethrowing, in a classic game, where I'm the serialkiller; and I only kill mafias/jesters, and purposely let the town win?

[Depsurrel]

Yes.

[Tandy Miller]

yup

[Count_Dandyman]

You say you purposefully let the town win and thinks theres any doubt about it being gamethrowing?

[Thundercracker]

heres a tip, if you are doing anything to make some team besides your own win, you are gamethrowing.

yes, even if you are the only serial killer. you're just a team of 1, in that case.

Serial Killers distract the town from mafia, so if you leave you just messed up mafia's game. Making them easy to hunt find. If I find myself with a role I dont like, I just start spouting random information, claiming all kinds of crazy stuff that makes half sense. It can get me hanged pretty quick sometimes, but it also confused the crap out of most of the town. For those "half way playing" town members they usually start thinking people who talk more often are townies, and will tipically vote the way you do. Which screws up allot of votes. Can lead to hilarious situations.

sk job is to be only one alive in town :)

I find it hard to believe that sk is supposed to help maf when they can litterally wipe them out aside from the GF. I really think if youre the only SK it really doesnt affect town or maf, just yourself. if you cause your own loss then there really shouldnt be any reprecussions since you're your own team.

They dont win with mafia, but the chaos helps town lose, which helps the SK win. If they quit, they help town win. Which could be considered game throwing, since its less targets for the town to contend with.

Your goal is to kill everyone

so uhh yeah, pretty much

Well, minus Witch/Surv

I do play myself "friendly SK games", and I can't believe people are actually considering it gamethrowing if the SK sides with town.. In all any, when I play as friendly Sk who revealeds being SK day 1, I am able to gain towns trust.

In the late game, the town may need to choose between SK or mafia win (or any other neutral evil role), in which case they usually let me win instead of the mafia as I was helping them.

Hit evenly, hit strategically, pick sides when and as needed but you're fight is to save your bacon in classic, remember... you can only win with Exe and Jester.

If you end up at the end after revealing yourself as SK day 1 then town was full of idiots.
When anyone, be it an exe, survivor or witch, gets a chance to vote they will usually pick SK over Mafia because for some reason everyone hates mafia and SK is just a harder role to win with.
I don't approve of these "friendly SK games" because you just made the game so much harder for mafia. Helping town win as SK gives town an unfair advantage that, especially in classic, they don't need.
