How would <original be able to communicate with his parter? Can scum communicate during the day?

Also I do have some "last words".
I know I've only been playing for a month and thats still new but I can definitely say that my vote on ILF at the beggining of the game was extremely noobish, and looking back on it, I realize why everyone voted for me.
Sooooooo yeah. Im sorry for voting for you ILF!

I'm not talking about QT communication. I'm talking about Original putting information in his final posts intended for his partner that he knew only his partner would understand. It's the same concept as table talking in a card game. If done well, nobody else will catch on.

Soctor, the vote on ILF was not wrong. You gave a reason etc. If you think someone is scum, vote for him/her and see what happens.
Your note was the problem and got you into trouble. Plus the way you handled it afterwards.
Note: I wanted to vote Fairies BEFORE I read those posts so
I'm not bandwagoning
You think Catboi or myself is the last scum?
Did you find any extra reads after you posted your lists?

I guess your right but still, looking back ILF was obviously not scum. It was a stupid reason for voting.

And not really no. Although catboi looks a lot more scum than you. Why has he randomly dropped off the face of the earth right before a hammer?

Mmmmmm, not really stupid reasoning for voting for me when you did. Day 1 there really wasn't strong reasoning for any of the lynches, it was actually pretty miraculous that we got enough evidence to lynch <original.

@Bulba: In a post prior to your last, you explained why you thought <ori was a bad mafia player, now, you that <ori was strong enough to work with a tactic that seems advanced and is probably super hard to pull off (requiring a strong mafia player). Seems contradictory to me, doesn't it? I feel it's one way or the other.

I didn't think she was bad enough to not try communicating with her partner before she died. And common sense indicates that any such communication would not be completely obvious. And she definitely wasn't good enough for the communication not to go unnoticed. So no, I don't think the two are contradictory at all.

Although, having now played with her in a marathon game where she was conf. town and horrible, I now have to wonder if I read too much into that post.

Number1 was all over Soctor and Catboi before he switched to <original. This might be the reason he got killed.
I have a very strong feeling the last scum is between them. We can afford the misslynch.
My top town are voting for Soctor.
I will hammer Soctor in (expired on 2014-04-02 19:01:46).


If you want to claim, do it before the time runs out.

410 sounds a tad too desperate to look like he's justified in the hammer he's planning/wanting to lynch to look town rather than simply for his target looking scum-this gives a feeling he doesn't fully believe in the vote he's planning.

I do believe this is a misslynch. I really think Soctor is a newbie who got himself stuck on
Day 1
by making some newbie mistakes.
I also think lynching him will help town to win this game.

The last few days we are stuck on Soctor L-1 and Catboi MIA or not really helping.
Conversation is slow or non-existent. Maybe all we need is a good
night
s sleep to start fresh on our hunt for the last scum.

We could be lucky and have our scum with this lynch, but I doubt it.
Also, as someone has pointed out, we can afford the misslynch.

I am not happy about this, but I am willing to sacrifice Soctor for the greater good. He got himself stuck in a hole and it was a miracle that <original fell into a deeper one on
Day 1
.

VOTE: Thesoctorisin

Good
night

Well since we can still post after the hammer I might as well repost this in case the game doesn't end here:
In post 378, JarJarDrinks wrote:OK, no matter what happens, the next 2 lynches need to be bulb and soctor. I'm pretty close to being even on both of em and really don't have a preference which one we lynch today.
As long as the other one gets lynched tomorrow if we hit town today. Don't let bulb try to wifom his way out of the lynch if I die. (I'm assumming soc will be the lynch today).


Now if by some chance they both flip town, I believe we still get one shot left. If that happens I'd choose between fairies and Docth. The SEs are probably my top townreads right now.

Good show.

I insped fairy as i wanted to clean a minor scumread rather than confirm my top one- soctor- who, if town, would only be a minor sacrifice.

@Bulbazak: The Doc thing was simply me trying to make it seem as though the PRs and Mafia roles were slightly different than they actually were. There wasn't any point in attempting secret messages when I had no way of knowing if they would get through and to make them obvious enough to be caught (given that I hadn't exactly provided a key for reference) would be to make them obvious enough to be intercepted by Town imo.

And seriously, you're basing my play off a Marathon game where I was playing at nearly 2am and as an Innocent Child? I can't see how people react to me in the same way if I'm confirmed by a mechanic and I really ought to have pulled out of that game once there were enough players like I said I would, but I'm stupid so I didn't :V.

Though yes, I *was* serious when I said I was playing to my Town meta, even if you probably think it's a terrible one. Whatever, list what you think my errors are then?

Sorry, this is all just complaining. Thanks for the game, Robocopter87. Sorry for getting caught so quickly.

soctor, I'm thinking you may need to improve distancing (you appearing to change your mind near the end of the phase where I was lynched but refusing to hammer, for example) and saying stuff for the sake of saying stuff. You need to get into the Town mindset and think about what they would be asking; not just coming in with stuff you think might fit when you think you've not posted for a while or are under pressure. At least that was my interpretation, please correct me if I'm wrong on that.

Sorry I was sort of an ass to you, Hopkirk and Bulba. I just wanted to make sure you guys know that it was entirely in the scope of the game and I felt guilty and awful the entire time I was ever even remotely rude. >.>

In other news, I have no idea how to spot scum apparently. xD

Thanks for the game, everyone. ^-^

I had a hard time getting into the zone of the game. The first day my participation was just awful. I'm a bit more happy about day 2, but I have a long way to go.
