Pretty sure it was because your role, but also you likely weren't going to get mislynched even if you lead bad wagons.In post 2173, Plotinus wrote:It's possible I was also killed because of my role: I had correctly guessed that I was a PT cop and knew that my innocents were true innocents.
It's possible I was killed because I wasn't likely to get lynched.

I was holding back; I could've lynched Meeseeks at any time on day 1 and I could've been a lot more forceful than I was about any of my reads. I knew my reads weren't that good this game even when I was playing. But people follow me anyway. I wish they wouldn't.

people expect my reads to be of higher quality than someone else's, but i'm not more important than anybody else, and i'm not neccessarily having a better game than anybody else. My reads are as good as I can make them, I'm always doing my best, but people expect me to be infallible, and nobody is infallible. Yeah, the Ranger lynch was on me. I had a bad read on her predecessor and I had a moment when I thought Ranger might be town and it felt so awful that town Ranger might be saying the things about me that she was saying that I discarded it. but I spent two day phases making sure I was right because I knew I could have strongarmed that lynch on Meeseeks on page 10 or whatever it was but there's a difference between "can" and "should". I spent two day phases trying to get it right and I still didn't, but I learned something about Ranger for next time at least. That happens sometimes; I'd say it happens to most people in most games. I wouldn't have spent two day phases working on that read if I'd been having a better game.
Anen and Javajoe had great reads this game. Nobody listened to them or paid enough attention them. I didn't either. People need to pay attention to everybody, not sit back and let someone else solve it.The failure mode of clever is asshole.

This is a recurring thing in many games. Why do people not put much effort as town to figure out? I have seen it in too many games and it makes sense in newbies but I see it in too many places.In post 2179, Plotinus wrote:people expect my reads to be of higher quality than someone else's, but i'm not more important than anybody else, and i'm not neccessarily having a better game than anybody else.

That depends on people. often people don't have time and/or mood for hard work, and if plot continuously succeeded in finding both and producing good content, people will look up to him keeping this up. Shit happens! The respect you earned onsite is remarkable, and as such, if you start lacking, people get disappointed. So be it...In post 836, Lucky2u said:

If we were going to fearkill someone for good reads it would have been Adenine.
You had some correct reads but your play was all over the place and you weren't going to stick with the correct reads that you held at certain points.2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.- KuroiXHF

That's why we weren't so worried about you. Yeah, your reads were mostly decent, but I always felt like I had wiggle room. In the beginning, I was able to lead you to Meeseeks. Then I could get you to vote RC. I wasn't all too worried, to be honest.
But to be honest, I felt like I was taking advantage of poor town play.- Antihero

here's the role pm's of everyone who i haven't flipped.
KUROI
RADIANT COWBELLSAnd thus Nature will be very conformable to her self and very simple, performing all the great Motions of the heavenly Bodies by the Attraction of Gravity which intercedes those Bodies, and almost all the small ones of their Particles by some other attractive and repelling Powers which intercede the Particles.
Gravity, Global Jack of All Trades
[The standard model of particle physics describes forces and particles very well, but when you throw gravity into the equation, it all falls apart.]
global roleblock, 1-shot: causes all other actions to fail
[The extreme weakness of quantum gravitational effects now poses some philosophical problems; maybe nature is trying to tell us something new here: maybe we should not try to quantize gravity.]
global messenger, 1-shot: sends a short (140 character maximum) message to every player in the game
[The moon gravitates towards the earth and by the force of gravity is continually drawn off from a rectilinear motion and retained in its orbit.]
global flavor tracker, 1-shot: tracks every player in the game, results are in the form of "[flavor name] targeted [flavor name]"

WIN CONDITION:
you win when only players aligned withremain or nothing can prevent the same.ENTROPY
FIRE ASSASSINIf you want to see a black hole tonight, tonight just look in the direction of Sagittarius, the constellation. That's the center of the Milky Way Galaxy and there's a raging black hole at the very center of that constellation that holds the galaxy together.
A Black Hole, Sticky Jailkeeping Voyeur
[Each black hole spins on its axis like the Earth spins. That spin creates two vortexes of twisting space, somewhat like vortexes in a bathtub or a whirlpool.]
jailkeeper: your target will be roleblocked and protected from kills
[Do you realize that if you fall into a black hole, you will see the entire future of the Universe unfold in front of you in a matter of moments and you will emerge into another space-time created by the singularity of the black hole you just fell into?]
voyeur: you will see what type of action(s) were performed on your target
[Black holes, we all know, are these regions where if an object falls in, it can't get out]
sticky: once you target someone once, you will compulsively target them for the rest of the game until one of you is dead.

[/quote]String theory has the potential to show that all of the wondrous happenings in the universe - from the frantic dance of subatomic quarks to the stately waltz of orbiting binary stars; from the primordial fireball of the big bang to the majestic swirl of heavenly galaxies - are reflections of one, grand physical principle, one master equation.
String Theory, Modifier Cop
[When we understand string theory, we will know how the universe began. It won't have much effect on how we live, but it is important to understand where we come from and what we can expect to find as we explore.]
modifier cop: you will learn any modifiers your target has

ANENINEN
CABD/DGBEvery great and deep difficulty bears in itself its own solution. It forces us to change our thinking in order to find it.
Niels Bohr, Modified Motion Detector
[We have, on the contrary, assumed that the frequency of the radiation is determined by the condition hν = E, where ν is the frequency, h Planck’s constant, and E the difference in energy corresponding to two different “stationary” states of the system.]
motion detection: you will measure the E of your target. everyone starts the game at E=1 and cannot fall below it. every time someone is targeted, their E increases by 3 and every time they perform an action themselves it decreases by 1.

JAVAJOETwenty years ago, the discovery of peptides able to cross cellular membranes launched a novel field in molecular delivery based on these non-invasive vectors, most commonly called cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) or protein transduction domains (PTDs). These peptides were shown to efficiently transport various biologically active molecules inside living cells, and thus are considered promising devices for medical and biotechnological developments. Moreover, CPPs emerged as potential tools to study the prime mechanisms of cellular entry across the plasma membrane.
TAT Cell-Penetrating Peptide, Macho Odd-Night Flavor Watcher
[Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are short peptides that facilitate cellular uptake of various molecular cargo (from nanosize particles to small chemical molecules and large fragments of DNA). The "cargo" is associated with the peptides either through chemical linkage via covalent bonds or through non-covalent interactions.]
flavor watcher: you will learn who performed an action on your target. you will get results in the form of flavor names.
[Current use is limited by a lack of cell specificity in CPP-mediated cargo delivery and insufficient understanding of the modes of their uptake.]
odd-night: you may only use this ability on odd number nights
[Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) have the ability to enter the plasma membrane of a cell independent of a membrane receptor.]
macho: you cannot be protected from nightkills

SIRCAKEZScientists didn't discover the noble gas helium - the second most common element in the universe - on Earth until 1895. And they thought it existed in minute quantities only, until miners found a huge underground cache in Kansas in 1903.
Helium, Macho Double Voting Neighbor
[In the perspective of quantum mechanics, helium is the second simplest atom to model, following the hydrogen atom. Helium is composed of two electrons in atomic orbitals surrounding a nucleus containing two protons and (usually) two neutrons.]
double vote: your vote counts twice
[Inert and monatomic in all standard conditions]
macho: you cannot be protected from nightkills

Francium is a chemical element with symbol Fr and atomic number 87. It is the second-least electronegative element, behind only caesium.
Francium, Vengeful Reactive Neighbor
[Francium is the most unstable of the naturally occurring elements.]
reactive: everyone who targets you will reflexively be told that you are francium.
[Because of the general appearance of the other elements in its periodic table column, it is assumed that francium would appear as a highly reflective metal, if enough could be collected together to be viewed as a bulk solid or liquid. Obtaining such a sample is highly improbable, since the extreme heat of decay (the half-life of its longest-lived isotope is only 22 minutes) would immediately vaporize any viewable quantity of the element.]
