Thanks for playing, it was the first game I've modded in ages - it was fun.

Good game everyone! This was a fun setup and thanks to Nexus for modding it!

[Starbuck]

OMG. Good game everyone. I did not think I would survive with so much stacked against me, but freaking awesome.

So initially, when I got the PM from Nexus, I thought I had a choice of Ninja, Werewolf, or BG. I read it wrong while looking at the PM from my phone. So I chose Ninja thinking I would get an ability alongside it. In my brain (and forgive me, it's been forever since I've done a normal game), I was thinking I could potentially be immune from scum kills. I didn't actually think I was choosing scum until the Role PM came in, I went to the Wiki and read up on the definitions, and I /facepalmmed.

DoubleDare, holy shit, I was wishing so hard that I was a town bloc with you. I ever came to the thread and saw that I was King, I didn't think anyone town read me after everything with Hectic. So you gave an underdog a bit of hope there. Obviously, you now know who kept you around and didn't kill confirmed town. It was because I hoped you would continue to vote with me. I hope you can forgive me. You seem awesome and I hope we're on the same side in the future.

I wish that I had pulled the trigger on Raya before she revealed, but I think her siding with Hectic put points against her for others anyways. It didn't really come off as the town!Raya that I saw in The Weakest Link, but came off as sheeping rather than her own stand-alone case from my POV. I think had she, or Hectic for that matter, actually pulled a case together from this game (rather than ride a completely outside this game case), they could have gotten my elimination.

REAL TALK - I had NO CLUE that Glitch was a werewolf for about 3/4 of Day 1. I went to the WW thread and no one else responded. Nexus didn't do an opening like "this is the WW thread and here is your partner" intro. So everything that I said in that back and forth at the beginning of Day 1 and in this post was without knowing that Glitch was my partner. It would have looked super scummy to back off, when I had been going so hard, so I think Glitch was doomed regardless. My play would have been immensely different had I known Glitch was on my team from the start. Maybe we would have even had a Pooky elimination that day. We'll never know.

Also, who woulda thought (because I had no idea that Pooky would flip 3rd Party) that we all took sides in a 3P vs 3P 1v1 between Glitch and Pooky? I did, too, because I didn't know Glitch was on my team.

Lastly, before the big "I told you so" from Hectic, I would have reacted the same as town or scum over the case that he tried to pull. He legit took my genuine feelings and twisted them to mean what he wanted them to mean. I was getting so frustrated over my personal thoughts being twisted as such that I did stay away from the thread for a few days. I just stopped replying to him because everything I said was already out there and I felt it was taking away from the enjoyability of everyone else. This situation is why I hate meta, but the worse part is this wasn't even a meta situation. It was a "look what she said" pulling from a thread from a game that he recently modded (that no one else would have even thought to look at) and he got it all wrong. He failed to mention that Nahdia turned out to be scum that game and I was not. I think had he not gone so hard at this, especially with the personal element, he could have gotten the elimination that he wanted on me. I know I've flipped scum, but I stand by every single word I said back to him in regards to this. So for anyone looking for some "ooooh, I got Starbuck" shit in the future, you really don't.

I really do like just having something to do in game, whether town or scum, and BG wasn't going to be it. I was hoping this game was multiball (and it was!) and I truly had a great time (despite everything with Hectic). Thank you, Nexus!

[Hectic]

Well played, Starbuck! Fair enough on all that, though I will say that half of my read on you was gut and the way you were acting in-thread otherwise; I was just unable to explain or articulate it. You're right I should've tried to form a proper in-game case.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

ooh if only i had the right type of nightkill immunity. curses

[Fidget]

Well played Star!

...maybe i'll take a hero shot next time

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

i think the key point missed was that the nightkills went from 1 on N1 to 2 on N2 which implies somebody prevented a NK on N1. Since Hectic was the only role that could prevent nightkills - it would be reasonable for him to roleblock starbuck on N1 hence she was the killer.

My original plan was to kill Hectic and use his death to frame starbuck since I was reasonably sure she was scum but the kingmaker threw a wrench in those plans

[Fidget]

Yeah that and DoubleDare, the confirmed town, had to be getting kept alive for a reason

Aaaand Ydrasses' claim made no sense for scum.. scum Ydrasse would've claimed guilty, not an inno I would think.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

also true

was well played from all sides =] a thrilling game for sure!

[DoubleDare]

ugh yeah that's all true. I feel pretty dumb

[Ydrasse]

nah, don't feel dumb! honestly i feel the odds of getting ninja ww of all things was just super good luck (and starbuck not realizing they were a ww haha!!). c: fun one all the same!

[Starbuck]

I realized I was a WW after getting my role PM. It was that Glitch never showed up in the WW thread until 3/4 into Day 1. I thought I was all by myself.

[Ydrasse]

ohhhhh... i see. even so, it somehow managed to work out for the best for you guys LOL.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

[Starbuck]
