Woot

Thanks for modding Micc!

GG
Thanks for modding Micc.

First, SORRY and thank you CHEVLON!!! for replacing in a doomed slot. My vacation got a bit longer and I forgot to let someone know

This was my first game as mafia which made put me back in my lurker status. I tried to get over it, but getting flagged as mafia on page 3 or so really pushed me back into it. How did you know, bjc?
I think my mafia chat analysis was pretty good, but my actual thread gameplay needs a lot of work.

We pretty much had the game, but then Sala replaced out and Prof replaced in big! Props to that.

If you have any tips for me. I'd appreciate it, because I'm a long way from becoming even a reasonable player.

Thanks for the game

Well, you took a long time to get lynched so you didn't do that badly

Next time, try to avoid looking too enthusiastic to jump onto L-1 and L-2 wagons (Salamence & Victor Day 1)

[Docthorr]

Most likely because most forgot about me being in the game

Jep, made a note of that already.

[bjc]

He only survived for so long because of other players. How !any people said they'd be okay with lynching doc or that he was a good lynch only to look elsewhere and/or get on the shittiest wagon of all time in elk?

Yes, I hammered a town read. I'm absolutely willing to do so to move a game along when people are being slow/dumb. Still won.

That and the Victor wagon were the worst I've seen. Y'all done let the mafia manipulate ur asses.

[Prof Fridays]

Woop woop!

The bjc town-read was too stronk.

[reinoe]

Ooohhhh. Those last three days were painful to watch because of how slow it was. The Elk lynch was especially bad. You'll realize why once you see the dead/spoiler thread. Glad we won. Time to update my wiki!!!

[Titus]

Elk appeared to be scum much more than Doctorr did.

Your shitty elk hammer did not help at all. It was antitown. You don't hammer to move a game along. You hammered to match scum meta bjc.

[U SUX]

So, Y&B, care to say what my first scumslip was? I know this was my second:

(Aside: have people really BS'd V/LAs to that degree

as scum

? Boy how the times have changed)

Also, why was this post a scumclaim?

Y'know, learning experience and all that. The town can't take the scumteam to school without teaching them a few lessons!

Cheers to all who played. Too bad this alt has to die or I'd do it all again.

Read the dead/spoiler thread to find out more on why the ELK hammer didn't even have to go down. Laugh, cry, vomit...

Wow, sorry for nearly losing town this game .

Just out of curiosity, how many people realized I'd investigated insanity and gotten an inno?

N5 Cop is convienent, but frankly I buy it unless scum no killed. I doubt that's the case. I don't buy scum killing us over Insanity.

This is from the assumption that I'm scum. I'm saying while scum could have included insanity and targeted you, but with elk's hint at insanity being cleared, the odds are in favor of insanity being town, and I'm willing to accept those odds.

And yeah, sorry, there, elk. I wanted to lynch Docthorr over you, but the day was dragging on for soooo long I couldn't handle it.

I think you're sticking to hard to policies. Sure, a quick-hammer is more often than not scummy, but with the other evidence from bjc's posting and the context of the situation, it was a believable town move.

[BoroPhil]

well progress of a kind, I'm usually dead D1 or D2 as scum.

wp town, though you did your best to throw it away. surely once bjc had saved insanity he had to be conftown as insanity would have died if he was scum? couldn't work out how that penultimate day was dragged on for so long.

we were too worried about docs in the early stages and certainly made the wrong kills.

I saw it at 607 which is why I asked you to clarify. but why only say you were fairly confident at 611?

If insanity dies as you suggested, bjcscum becomes autolynch.

Scum can no kill.

Suddenly hammerring a townread with a lot of time to go is scumtastic.

That hammer was bad.

Bjc kept expanding the possible scum at the end as well.

I saw that and figured it was a defense rather than a slip. I speak like that a lot.

bjc? That was all BoroPhil.

I guess, but surely that would have been better than allowing prof to reveal their result?

[Prof Fridays]

Also, BoroPhil, I hope things are all cool between you and me. I felt like I was perhaps rude to you on a few occasions. I think a lot of it was frustration about insanity's and BC's indecisiveness.
