I don't think you're trolling

Sorry dude, I don't think it's embarassing honestly, I think Safebet did a decent job of faking pressure onto his mate if it's true

If you are town I feel geninuly bad. I just agreed with your post. I feel bad making you put effort into something I probably would never have changed my mind on

I don't wanna feel bad because that amounts to pity. I think you played a great game outside of your alignment.

But agree with uwnd.

This was less about lunar playing good or bad and safebet playing extremely well if lunar is scum.

Good job to Lunar. I had a lot of fun. I'm kinda at 'ahhh darn' because I was just oh so close. I wish some things didn't happen that uh well, did. Though it didn't detract too much. I was very surprised by some things that I'll get into.

Peta, I really like playing with you. I got into my own head a bit and started to think I was seeing things that weren't true. I totally saw scum behavior in Lunar, but I kept saying 'no, no it's just coincidence' and eventually defaulted onto you. I'm sorry we couldn't get it together and see eye-to-eye, and it sucks you were just outright hammered before you had a chance to reach me. I hope that you don't take any of this personal and that this doesn't affect future games.

Mikul, you should have given peta a chance to speak! I enjoyed your activity a lot but I think you need to practice restraint in some departments. You were saying 'ill give peta 30 minutes to respond' then kinda just went back on your own word. It feels like you enertain your own circular logic a lot, so much that you're thinking about x and y an z..all at the same time. Focus on one thing, but be mindful of what's going around you. You don't need to solve the game or have an answer for every single thing that has happened. With enough practice you'll turn into a fine player. Other thoughts for other players to follow.

Thanks, everyone for playing! I really enjoyed hosting the game for you. Congrats to both teams. I felt like this was a really hard-fought game by both town and scum!

Ffery/Cabd, hope you enjoyed my IC-posting. Please let me know what I could do better to help newbies as that was always my goal in this game. I think if I took control a bit earlier we wouldn't be here? Though the learning experience (even for myself) is something I'll take away from this.

Yeah sorry peta. You had said it yourself and I agreed with you. That you didn't want to put the effort in it if I weren't going to entertain it. And I think having you go through the effort when I probably would not have changed my mind was bm

I sused lunar from behavior a bit. I think safebet did good enough putting pressure on him in a way that made him seem like he was geninuly willing to bus that it had me convinced well enough. It was super fun though

@safe you played this extremely well imo. For a 4th game it was a damn near masterpiece.

Lunar, I thought your behavior was
super
scummy. It got to the point where I told Cabd this day that I felt it was 'too scummy to be scum.' I think that's an approach that is valid, because you played in such a dgaf way that it made me question if well, you'd do that as scum. I'm curious: was this intentional on your part? Why did you decide to no kill? Clearly you had thought about things more than I anticipated and I want to know what you and Safebet were planning or thinking about in some of these instances.
