I thought town was very efficient at finding each other for the most part during my readthrough.

My experience is that often in games where the percentage of veterans is high things get unfun and even sometimes toxic pretty easily/quickly.

I felt like this game avoided that for the most part. The Dannflor/SCRRRDBEAR interactions could have gone badly, but didn't so gj to both of you!

My only question about my part in the game was how on earth was I menacing?

And also how the hell was I not the day 1 elim?

And finally, this playerlist was a delight!

Not much commentary to offer on the game itself, obviously. I think Somnus stepped on a landmine rolling scum in a very experienced table and wasn't really able to recover from a rough start (plus whatever IRL circumstances he might have going on). From there obviously pooky wasn't very motivated and after a bit of shuffling the town figured out what was up. ffery gave a noble effort on replacing in but there was too much momentum to overcome at that point. In hindsight it's possible the neighborhood assignment choices were a mistake, although I'm not sure the scum team could have chosen a better configuration.

I was rooting for the mafia to pull an improbable comeback or at least make the game last longer, but it simply wasn't in the cards. (I also selfishly wanted to post more pictures of pies). I think the game very likely goes differently if ffery is in the game from the start.


Anyway, thanks to everyone for playing!

I think everyone here takes to a supportive role rather than a carry role rather easily which helped

Being able to do both is a plus, and I suspect that's the case for at least most of this playerlist.

THANK YOU. IT REQUIRED SELF REFLECTION AND SELF CONTROL TO OVERCOME MY TUNNEL ON DANNFLOR. CEPHRIR VALIDATING NEITHER MY PUSH AGAINST NOR DANNFLOR'S DEFENSE WAS HELPFUL AND AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO REACH ME IN A WAY I COULD ACCEPT. ALSO, ISIS FEEDBACK ON WHAT THEY WERE SCREENING FOR WAS HELPFUL. MOSTLY THOUGH I THINK DANNFLOR HELPED TO BREAK OUT OF MY TUNNEL BECAUSE I THINK REALLY WAS WELL WRITTEN.

MY MAIN TAKEAWAY WHILE READING YOUR SCUM POSTS WAS THAT A PSYCHOKILLER WAS TRYING TO LEAD ME TOWARD THEIR VAN. IT MADE ME SCRRRD AND CAUSED ME TO REMEMBER TO STOP, DROP AND ROLL.

That's interesting. My town game is sometimes dispassionate, too. It's a player list and mood thing.

On the other hand one game (I was town) I was so unflappable that a player decided I had to be scum for the reason you outlined here. And decided the only way he'd get me elimmed was to fake a guilty. That was a mess. My avatar apparently looked to calm and kind, too, or something.

I knew I needed a longer break from mafia, but wanted to play with Radja and Dannflor again, and the whole player list looked good. I think the hesitance bled into my play.

I love the avatar that Datisi made for me, but I don't think it works for playing. A detached Koakuna floating above it all was too close to my base mood and made it harder to stay stuck in the game.

Thank you for being open minded

You helped me take a step back and realize that the previous ways I was approaching you weren’t really productive and I was able to understand a lot better after some distance
