In all seriousness though, well played Witch_Hunter!!! I have to say your D1 was very good and I actually had a townread on you going into the first night. You had a good way of keeping the pressure off of you for most of the game and it worked well for you in final three.

Azorius, if that's any consolation - that post of yours made us panic. You found one scum and were
this
close to finding the other. We thought I'd be likely to start day 3 at L-1. What made you suspect Beli so early?

Btw, my proudest achievement in this game: I was the first to identify you as a PR. :mrgreen:

I was having a hard time reading Bel D1 so I tracked him to get any info I could. It just so happened I caught him killing poor hiplop. I guess it's a good thing that I had scum on the ropes. If we had rolled a doctor instead of a BP this game would be a town win.

For me, the game was entertaining and a good time, but I'm also glad it's over. I
am
a competitive bastard who spent more time than I should playing this, and, well... I signed up hoping to play as a detective, not as a lying killer. In retrospect, maybe that explains why I was so eager to make small talk (which had the benefit of being 100% true).

At least I found a way to use one of my RL skills - terrible leader, but a pretty good number 2. Worked twice, even if the first one was completely unplanned. :P

Most likely, yes. Town played a good game and I wasn't sure how it'd end up to the last minute. If the setup had been a bit more favorable to you? Town win for sure.

Btw, a short summary of the game from a scum perspective:

Day 1, easy as pie. So was Day 2, up to the moment I noticed you wouldn't give up and I asked Beli "hey, either he has the worst case ever or he's a cop. What do you think?"
Then we panicked and agreed I'd quickhammer him and end the day quickly before things got worse.
Day 3 was the hardest - Kim's case and vote for me was the second moment of panic. I somehow managed to BS my way through his arguments, but Noodles noticed. Last moment of panic - I thought I'd lost Day 4 there and then, before it even began.

Btw, Noodles - you improved a lot through the game and were a serious problem for me during Day 3. Very good.

And Kim, my second proudest achievement was lynching you. I'd been trying to do it ever since that post that made hiplop read me as town - the original intent was to make people suspicious of you. :lol:
Seriously, if only people had paid attention to your case against me, you'd have won.

On a more general note, hope everyone enjoyed the game, folks! Sorry about all the deception, but I think you deserved my best. Hiplop is a very good IC, Beli a very good scumbuddy, and the townies were constantly
this
close to winning. More importantly, I really enjoyed your company.

The dead PT is very informative, btw - for instance, I complained a lot in the scum PT about Azorius' approach on Day 2 not making much sense, even though his reads were excellent. Now it makes sense - what he did and what he could have done.

If it helps, I'm learning a lot from that thread too. :D
And you'll probably like my comments in the scum PT when it's open - day 3 had a lot of "Kim is dangerous, and underestimating Noodles was a damn stupid mistake".

But yes, it was fun, wasn't it? :]

Well played Witch Hunter, you had me fooled until my read back the night you killed me, when alarm bells did begin to chime a little, but all too late. I really liked your play style it suited this game very well. You did make a few mistakes which the other more experienced players picked up on in the dead thread, so you should go read them. I will openly admitted I had you pegged as town early in the game. however I was always wondering thus my post about that voice that kept saying WH.. maybe I will listen to it more next time.

Noodles, you had a great game too, you really did explain yourself well and I had you pegged as town after your defence of my case against you, well played and bad luck on the end game, but good luck in your future games.

BlueBird you played ok, but you need to be more assertive. I know its not easy and you are looking at the experienced players to guide you, but remember they may actually be playing against you, please don't take to heart my comments in game about your play, and I apologise if it was too strong. Its a frustrating game and generally when someone is not playing well others push the slot to see what falls out and also who else attacks on the back of the push.

Bel, Azor and Kim, thanks for the game guys, looking forward to playing with or against you all again in the future....

SRMP sorry for D1, but you really confused me and your posting style and way of responding was not helping me see the wood for the trees.

Plotinus thank you for hosting a great game and see you around soon I hope, Marquis, thanks for backing Plot up.

ok I will go read the Mafia Thread etc...

Yeah you have no idea how frustrated I was. Bel didn't have anything in his ISO screaming scum so I had to really nitpick his posts. I think either way I would have had to breadcrumb the guilty there to ensure town knows the information. I essentially "claimed" when I said he was going to be the lynch that day regardless.

Pretty nervous reaction there, I like my vote even more now.

Also, I'm Captain Basch.


A very early quote but I think one that could have really helped in the later days. Scum almost never plays like this together, unless they're playing a bussing game. Bussing with two mafia in the game is really counter productive as well, especially on D1.

The only advice I can offer takes us back to the library hobos joke - your problem was a lack of time, not skill. Read your ISO, you'll probably agree you played well in the early game and endgame; not coincidentally, the very moments you managed to post more.

I noticed the VT slip here, but it seemed so intentional it couldn't be taken as anything but deliberate WIFOM. :mrgreen:
