So you were more of a threat if you were scum compared to MagikHorse based on RC's jailing plan, which wouldn't have worked if we lynched MagikHorse before you. But you did put
A LOT
into this game, and you played great! For the most part I thought you were fairly towny, although when you started to nitpick at how I roleclaimed I started to get more concerned about your slot.
Please do be careful about quickhammering in your future games though, I was really serious with that advice.
I saw that it was the most optimal route. I play to win the game, not to personally survive. You can cowbells were sure of each other, so removing me from the equation would rule a suspect out and buy you both time to work things out before the thread got locked.

And I need stuff like that. I was looking up things like, "Neapolitan," "Neo," and "Spoon," because that's actually the level I'm at. Volxen was very helpful and I was able to see how the information he was providing was neutral and could have come from scum or town without ruining the game for anyone.
Neo was a character in the 1999 movie the matrix, in which the phrase "there is no spoon" was a metaphor for something or other. Something about how nothing he was seeing was real because spoilers. If you like action movies, it is a good one to see.
It was a good game. But, I'm still extreme noob and now am very hesitant to play anymore.
Maybe Quick Games are more for me... Need to find what I like...
It's kinda funny actually, once Screaming died I kinda treated the Mafia Pt like a personal chat.
And Screaming, don't feel so bad about being caught out like that. Try to figure out where you went wrong and learn for the next time. A little determination and bravery will go a long way here, and the same applies to Mary too. If Mary ever gets a better hold on how things work and gets a bit more of a backbone, I can see her becoming a really good player in particular.
