I thought this post in was kind of a slip for me; the only reason I would ask to see a game of their's in this context is to shade them for meta reasons, considering I already would have them as confscum
I was surprised by that too, I wish I had thought more and capitalized on it.
I think this game would have gone better for town if there had been more wagonning earlier in the day phases, so that there would have been time to get a claim and change to a different lynch if the person turned out to be a PR or was able to town things up. Activity levels were pretty low this game, but there was a lot of analysis and critical thinking and I think both sides played well overall.
As a note, it's not okay to the post in the thread if you were dead, even if you think the game is over -- because people could always be twilight trolling you might influence the game by causing the living players to believe you had been spoiled. In this case, the game really was over so no harm was done, but please be mindful of that in the future.
This game is now open for post game commentary, and so
now
you can post here even if you were dead and even if you didn't play.

I think I'm the target of this sentence. I take good note of it and apologize.

you are perfectly welcome to post in twilight.
2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.
In general nightkilled townies should be sheeped more, I thought that I'd at least pick up some flak for urist dying! I'd say that me going high-effort in lylo after being relatively low effort is a pretty good scum indicator as well, at least for me. Sashaddin also correctly guessed that we were planning on having his slot be the most likely lylo lynch. Sasha, I feel like you could've pushed me harder considering you knew I had to be scum, but you also replaced into NM's slot so you can't really be faulted for being lynched.
pedit: sasha, twilight posting is generally okay as you're technically alive up until you flip
no, pvturist was. Your post was fine because there's always a small chance that everybody miscounted and you weren't really lynched, so you count as alive until the mod says you're dead, and the game counts as ongoing until the mod says it's over.

My pushing skills are somewhat low. Also, you were my TOP townread before realizing that you mechanicallly was comfscum, so I didn't see much to attack in your iso...
If I were to do it again, I think I would focus on you on the last day and imagine the first ones are non-existant. But your scum game was no match for me anyways!
This game showcased really well what happens when people play to be right.
If people played to win I think Baezu would have had a hard time in lylo and the rest of the townies could better work out who she could be paired with (hint: not NM/Sashaddin). Skygazer's line about Baezu lurking out day phase should have been an indication as well. I remember writing something in the scum pt of Large Normal 218 that went along the lines of "we need to act like it's do or die, not that our win is imminent" when lylo started. The more fabricated posts you force scum to make, the better. If you look back to day 1/early d2 Baezu was behaving MUCH differently than later into the game... because she was trying to fit in with the culture of the thread. By the end of the game town failed to compel scum to fit in.
Overall town was generally happy to share reads. The Voted kill may have implied scum!NM but at the same time he was shitting town all over the thread. At some point you have to wonder if scum wanted him gone like a bad weed. Pvt was a gamble that I'm surprised paid off. Might have been a different game if he didn't spotlight the doc so hard. Scum brought the right people to lylo and won which is often the case.

Sorry about that, I'll pay more attention in the future.
There were a lot of good players this game, I don't think was so much skill as it was the lack of chemistry we were missing. A town leader was what we needed, as Voted has put it
