8 hrs into day 2. What did I just witness. This is TERRIBLE townplay, MJL, you ought to be policy lynched for that alone, I will do so in any game going forward, you got lucky, I was scum, I played terribly all game, everything I said was a lie (almost literally), and this is the most downright hilarious game of forum mafia I have seen or will see in my entire life. GG town, great play urap and TTTT, I want to know who the PRs were to see if I roleblocked correctly.

Please tell me you weren't a VT that I wasted a roleblock on last night. Dayvig would have been the best here if you actually could have and shot her.

Also, this is technically my first game of forum mafia, so YEET I played like trash but that ending was worth the loss to witness. Great introduction to actual forum play for me, far more fun than my trash irl group, great playing with y'all. TTTT is MVP for fantastic instincts and scumhuntning, wish I could stay for more to learn how to do it properly. MJL, watch out, I'm voting you the next game we play together. Time to see if there's any RMM in signups now, l8ter.

Also, that skitter vote was 100% legit, I wanted a lynch to end the day.

what was your motivation for your first post?

I knew it was total BS, thought I could get away with it as a total noob. Wrong, clearly. BTW, I didn't lie about my MS friends texting back, they never did, that was made up as well.

Honestly though MJL, if that hammer hadn't gotten lucky, you would have unquestionably died the next day if you weren't vigged in the night.

i still don't think your first post was inherently scummy tbh, it def could have come from new-town imo
you did start falling into fairly common newb-scum patterns of playing up the inexperience and relying on that to explain why you 'didn't understnad what was going on' or 'why you couldn't form reads' tho starting ~midday1

i did enjoy playing with you and hope to see you in more games!

^^^^^^ agree; i had that in my first game here and it was super hard

they're changing the newbie game format (changed already i think? starting with game 1917 i think) so that there's going to be 3-4 ses and no ics which might help with this a bit
