Maybe I shoulda listened to ya. Mathblade did justice to the slot at least, so that was good
And I townread you so go me!
I have an alt or two I'm probably going to bring out soon. Depending how they go, Ari may become used moreso for modding and for epic games I just can't miss out on.
Iunno, I love it a lot, but I also feel a change is needed in some way.
Thanks to Dier for hosting (and allowing me to replace in so quickly), as well as TwoFace and Aris for being open minded enough to secure the lynch.
I cannot comment much on the game beyond D3, because that is all I really read in detail (though I was reading the votecounts throughout the game). Sonia and EMP's individual posts were pretty good throughout the game. However, I felt that they were far too transparent with their mafia motivations in the thread. EMP's posting left a very powerful association case to make against Sonia. Sonia's treatment of EMP on D3, as well as her D4 voting were huge red flags in her filter. To some extent, both of you really need to think about what you would do as town before you take certain stances in the thread. A solid mafia performance doesn't need to be perfect, but there needs to be just enough to cover your tracks.
I hope I don't sound overly critical - I just want to point out what I noticed and hope people find it useful.

I also felt strategically that Sonia really put herself in a hole reading my slot as town the way she did. I think the best chance at surviving another day was not trying to put all the eggs in the lynch-Gamma basket, but to actively discredit me and hope that TwoFace went along with his tunnel.

i had to sub out due to surgery and not being able to get stress levels above a certain point etc etc i didnt want to risk anything, glad my sub fixed what imo was a really awful tunnel from someone who had otherwise decent gameplay. idk, i really dont see me and emp as svs, i called him out for ignoring sonia for active lurking just as much as i did and im pretty sure hapahauli got some of their argument from what i brought up which is nice. sonia was obvious scum to me but unfortunately i just didnt get the time to fix it.
empoof seemed like too obvious a lynch to me like aja. i guess you could say i overestimated his gameplay? the sonia connection was really obvious, and my doubt was that that was intentional, but ah well. in hindsight we just let sonia coast without even reading the thread or doing much of anything at any point, did the creeps slot justice :^) but she managed to stay under the radar for a while which is good for her.
this was my last game on ms but what ill take for future games is i should be more confident in my reads. i was right on which d1 wagon i wanted, i was right on vedith, and i figured out creeps in the end - i just didnt convey it well and i need to work on that too. i shouldnt have lynched hiraki or aj, thats my b.
overall i had fun this game. thanks for being a good playerlist, peace.

The longer you stare at something the more out of focus it becomes

I skimmed through your other mafia game on this account Mini 1823 and came away super impressed by your play. Your ability to get emotional and angry came across as very authentic on my readthrough, and seem to provide great cover and a very credible story as an "angry over-emotional townie."
Which is why...

I think a lot of the sr is just an irk for my playstyle and I'm not gonna change that so nothing I can really do on that.
I thought using less rage would make me more approachable and in turn less lynchable guess I was wrong.
...I was surprised to see this.
Experiments are what they are, and there are probably good reasons to be less "ragey" in your town play. But I also feel that this is what was missing from your mafia play this game: some kind of cover to distract town players from calmly considering the objectives you were pushing.

ScumBlade's eloquent performance left me utterly disoriented, debased, depraved and sent me spiraling into a horrific murky abyss with emotional turmoil and immense despair as my only companions until slowly I suffocate in my own gloom, surrounded by failure.

@ hap. I was impressed how you were able to quickly make a case on Sonia like that. Her reaction wasn't great. That's always the best way to stop a tunnel, make a good case for an alternative. Good job

Honestly if I am not posting 20000 miles an hour that should give scum pause. I left my reads dubious because I knew if I did my role right I was dying N1.
