drat!! what an ending.

That was a hell of a game, flavor was great, roles were cool. The random alignments were actually very cool, and it made some of the Standard Mafia Playbook not really work so well, which I thought was fun. It made my Rolecop interesting as well, because while I could see whether or not people were lying when they claimed, that was all I had to go on.

I also had a moment of horror going into N3 when I rolecopped busb because I realized if he were scum, he could very well be lying about his role, and allowing him the firstpost might have allowed him to win! But good work, guys! Really great games from everyone, except lol tearshed.

Great to hear, thank you!

Oh and yeah, I thought about picking a town/scum mvp but that choice was impossible. So many people played hard and even with a day one scum lynch, it took some very smart night actions to drive the win home.

There were never more than 2 masons at once.

Which means that I never got to use either of my powers...

I'm proud of you, Bender. Sure, you lost. You lost bad. But the important thing is I beat up someone who hurt my feelings in high school.
Nice work town. Man did I freak out when yuming died N2.

I also thought it was funny that both the Aussies got the role that relied on posting first in the thread. At least it made it even.

Thanks Somber, I really enjoyed the flavour. Congrats to the new players, you did good. Play more games!

Busb - you hosed my Plan A when you pushed for a no lynch, and I had no Plan B, so I thought I'd just have some fun claiming an investigation against you. From the start of the game yuming was pushing to get you onside and she was right. I'll listen to her next time.

fyi for those of you who like the randomized role/alignment gimmick, I'm going to be running one that is semi-random after the long weekend.

Want to reiterate that this is in my top-tier of "mafia games I have enjoyed"

Yeah i didn't bring up the possibility of first post having alternate powers for that reason. I was also going to push for a massclaim before the nolynch.

I don't mind that people didn't trust me this game overmuch, there was nothing that solid about my play and led the lynch into two townies. I felt like my posting was quite honest though and hoped that would carry the day.

Tried to put out a false trail on thinking strong mouse was scummier than f_v so i wouldn't get blocked which sorta worked.

I wish you hadn't shot me sava because i was going to argue the above point that f_v shouldn't have expected me to investigate her because i said i thought strong mouse was scummier!

Alas you didn't believe me :angel:

f_v why didn't you nk me/savahontas earlier?

Wow i missed this post completely.

Yeah pushing the nolynch was obviously the best move at that stage. I had fun with the counter investigations because i took 10 minutes to pop in after an incredibly stressful couple of days at work - i was so exhausted i didn't even know what i was saying. I hosed that up hardcore!

I knew you were going to cop me, but I was worried about watchers/docs/roleblockers if I went for you either night. I didn't see a way out of it.

I was essentially vanilla scum since I couldn't NK and use one of my powers. So if I role blocked you once then there would be no kill. So I would have to post first to stop you getting your power, but that would look scummy. It felt like a catch-22 from my perspective and I didn't think I could go many (or any tbh) days before being lynched.

You were right fv I jailed him the night after he put forth his plan and protected him the next night, so a kill wouldn't have worked.

Good stuff Asiina! I knew there had to be some sort of protective role out there and just putting the thought out there into the thread enabled me to live, even if it turned out we didn't have a doc.

I think the problem you ran into f_v was out of thread decisions, i thought your posting was quite good and you definitely convinced some people and didn't crumble at all.
The only way you win from 2 nights out was making sure both me and sava made it to lylo with you. As scum you have to have a lylo plan figured out instead of a "Just last one more night" mentality. A lot of people struggle with this, and it's especially hard after losing all your scumbuddies i know.

Scum really HAVE to get rid of any confirmed town players as soon as possible, because other targets will always show up. For example Chaoslord - everyone in the thread knew he was town from that obvious as hell post day1. So you either have to be drat sure you have him in your pocket, or kill him off.

So you have 2 nights until possible lylo, and have chaos, sava, myself that need to be killed.

Anyway that's a lot of words to say "Well done, have a lylo plan, kill confirming townies asap. :)

Thanks for the game Somber!
I'm never playing a mafia game with you ever again Sava!

I was a sorta doc.

I could jail but only once per person or I could build up protect (doc) charges by being a bodyguard.

Thanks! I plan on doing this again, but school just started up and I have gotten busy. It probably won't be until October or November before I participate in another one.

And yeah, I tend to lurk a lot instead of posting. I think participating in this may have doubled my post count ;)
