NY 151: Playground Mafia (Game Over-Mafia Win!)

[DLG]

Oh, man, I hope I was right!

Good game, everyone. Apologies if I blew it for Town.

[Psyche]

I need fundamental reforms in the way I think about this game, but I don't know where to start. Meh.

[DLG]

You and me, both.

With 4 alive, it takes 3 to lynch

Code_X has been lynched!

[PeregrineV]

It's becoming late afternoon, and Code_X's mom is reading 50 Shades of Grey when Code_X wanders over to her. She looks up , surprised.

"Are you OK?"

He nods yes.

"Are you ready to go home?"

He nods yes.

"Are you feeling well?"

He nods yes.

"OK, but it's not like you to want to leave so early. Usually I have to drag you kicking and screaming to leave.....
Are you sure you're OK?"

He nods yes.

"OK. Let's go home." She packs her stuff up and holds out her hand. Code_X takes it, and together they walk to the car.


"So, did you like it? How was your day? Did you make any friends? Do you want to come back tomorrow?"

Code_X walks quietly for a few moments, thinking.

"No", he says. "The place is full of bullies."

Code_X has left the playground!

Code_X was Vanilla Town!

[redFF]

You guys...

like how the hell did that happen
look at the list of flipped prs and hezz's reaction after being caught and tell me that fbi agent claim wasn't obvscum

i mean code_x didn't help but ffs
the benmage kill too

really should have been a town win.

[Code_X]

Meh.

I don't know. Bit gutted but town were screwed after lynch Day 3 with still 6 scum and a SK left with only 10 townies remaining. I'm just sorry couldn't convince you guys any more. The Benmage kill really was the thing I thought you'd both go with more than anything else.

No hate from me mind as I've buggered up in lylo plenty of times already so I know it's a nightmare and you keep second guessing yourselves.

Good game PV, well modded, really enjoyed it near the end especially - and well played mafia.

[Code_X]

The flavour and night/day scenes were class also

Red - I know you don't like me, but like what else was I supposed to do?

[redFF]

You're all equally to blame

Like because you were p useless most of the game and these guys had an obv fakeclaim and still lynched you

[Code_X]

Fair enough, I was useless Day 2 and 3 I'd agree with you and miles wrong in my reads. Just bit gutted about it...... You should have made us lynch Firestarter

Never mind.

[HezLucky]

Town utterly deserves to lose this.

What on earth do you think the SK has to gain by attempeting to throw one person under the bus? I play to my win condition always. Why would I be lying to you? That's some fucked up site meta there.

GJ Maxwell, though.

And six scum is a lot of scum. O_O

[Nero Cain]

Town utterly deserves to lose this.

I disagree. Sure there was alot of bad town play but there was also alot of good, id it was all bad we wouldn't have been this close to winning.

[Code_X]

My fault entirely reading the dead QT.

Should have voted the scum bag straight away instead of prattling on. Losing too much in lylo makes you second guess too much. I'm an idiot.

[Nero Cain]

I think its more psyche fault then yours.

[Code_X]

And you know for Andrew to come in shoot the Godfather at night and then name the scum team is incredibly suspect, whether he pleads his innocence or not regards the IP addresses. I'd be pretty riled if I was scum in that situation also so can understand LLD's reaction totally.

[maxwell]

I bussed too much and was generally pretty lousy, just a mildly clever fakeclaim that kept me in the game. Felt like I owed it to my teammates (some of them, anyway...) not to fail. (btw, that theory about maxous coding his results? dead on, although personally i already thought one of hez/benmage was the SK simply based on kill patterns) the amount of town power felt absolutely brutal by day 4/5, though.

and really benmage dying should have been a big red flag. WIFOM is overrated, kill the people most likely to vote you.

thought DV had a guilty result on me for sure

was surprised by hez shooting redFF there, not sure why he went for a kill the scumteam was guaranteed to make, the even numbers made things a lot harder for me.

Anyway still not really proud of how I played, I made this account to try to play more logically/analytically but I simply can't adapt to that sort of style as town or scum, was uncomfortable posting, missed opportunities to lynch benmage and psyche and generally took the path of least resistance for most of the game. Probably just going to use this account for modding games now.

go team regardless, glad I could win it for them in spite of everything.

pe: code_x, i actually didn't read most of your posts on lylo but I thought you had me dead to rights with regards to how SC acted around my slot, it wasn't until you got weird/cocky and started taunting me that I felt like you might get voted - that sort of stuff doesn't really mean much but people see it as scummy because you come across as overconfident.

Or maybe it's the scary clown avatar - it inspires distrust.

[Code_X]

I think its more psyche fault then yours.

Nah, he picked up near the end. It's my fault for fucking up straight away in lylo. There was so much to use against Mawwell town should have lynched him if I'd just been more confident - but due to other experiences fucked it up.


Edit - Max. Yeah I think in the end if they looked at Shottyiszik more and the interaction with SC they' have you got. But I went from one extreme to the other.

[maxwell]

And you know for Andrew to come in shoot the Godfather at night and then name the scum team is incredibly suspect, whether he pleads his innocence or not regards the IP addresses. I'd be pretty riled if I was scum in that situation also so can understand LLD's reaction totally.

I thought the whole thing was incredibly messed up but tried to avoid dwelling on it and hoped that it wouldn't screw the game up. Was a pretty big gut-check when I'd just replaced in and was complacent about actually reading the thread. I was posting semi-blind day 3, meaning I really only remembered LLD from my PM and was just making stuff up with regard to everyone else - this is a band and dumb thing to do. Please pay attention to your scumbuddies, everyone!

[Nero Cain]

And you know for Andrew to come in shoot the Godfather at night and then name the scum team is incredibly suspect, whether he pleads his innocence or not regards the IP addresses. I'd be pretty riled if I was scum in that situation also so can understand LLD's reaction totally.

I dunno, I'm on the fence. Andrew was nominated for a scummy last year and I think he has a pretty good track record overall. So unless he cheats in all his games its seems like he's just a legit good player. Benmage called the rest of the reaming scum after Andrew, was he cheating? So if Ben can do it I don't see how Andrew can't do it.

[Code_X]

Meh, what was the deal with the IPs though?

I guess perhaps he deserves some credit (innocent until guilty etc) but it just felt so accurate that I don't know. I can understand being pissed off as scum that's all.
