I think the lack of conversions was because of not scanning players that were susceptible to conversion. Ishmael, auto, and spaceman will know better than I, but that's what I understood.

I think the fact that vig attempts show clearly how many attackers show up, it doesn't allow much wiggle room for other actions. Unless they could vig, steal, or protect as an alibi and then convert, scan, or kill as well. Whether that would have made the French overpowered or not I'm not really sure. From what I understood is that they could vig, protect, scan, etc. and then steal as an alibi if they were doing French things. With the majority of the town wanting to vig, it left no room to do other things. If they refused to participate or didn't show up they'd be suspicious. I guess GH would be able to explain exactly what the French could and couldn't do in one night phase.

The game definitely felt unbalanced towards the town, but that just might be because of when I got converted Ishmael was basically a guaranteed lynch that next day. That left me and auto as the only two French. I scanned ATPG and El Barto the next night, but should have blind converted ATPG instead like auto suggested. I wasn't back in time to change my orders, and both of them abandoned ship. ATPG was susceptible and who knows how that would have changed the last phase.
