Mafia Reunion | Postgame

[Flavor Leaf]

I don’t think it was as scum sided as it came across.

I get why it feels that way, though.

We stopped your Cop from getting actions on Night 2.

I came up with the Unstoppable which made it seem like there wasn’t a broken back and forth defensive Strat in the FG.

We had no real clue who our partners were (although Maestro laid it on way too think on Day 3. Still don’t understand their play there, but it worked out).

I feel like Theta and I were nearly POE’d, but we spent the game controlling day narrative.

It swinged towards us early because of the first 2 misfades (I quick hammered the 2nd one for a reason), and town lost the 3rd party early through the actions, which lowered numbers.

This game was a lot closer than it looked, especially because Converts and OG Addict didn’t know the others, and even we didn’t because of how the Real Name thing worked, which was true.

i spectated this game. congrats cult!
and condolences about the altslip, drew.

[Flavor Leaf]

For instance, if Hu Tao targeted Theta or myself (if I didn’t fake claim Miller)

That was basically a direct guilty and 50% of our team gone.

Only 2 specific members of scum needed to die for town to win, but we pulled ahead early.

Like if Hu Tao and Aureal targeted Theta and I Night 1, and if Aureal got the conveter, that was game over.

I had no clue what to do this game, didn’t fully catch up cuz that was intimidating and I didn’t want to step on the plans the main faction cult was doing so did the bare minimum I could think of

i think thats what bianco did too. i think thats the nature of this setup because converts do have to protect the group scum.

i imagine it doesn't feel good to be converted, though. I guess you came into the game like that, though.

Bianco did target both group scum members with their target, and i even hard defended what I thought was a Dan case about the 3 of us scum, but he was town casing us.

Theta, JV, and I were all Novice/Non-Consecutive, so was hoping that didn't get out too much.
Theta and I had roles that were kinda helpful, but not really, so it really was a matter of controlling day play.

Me testing out Gamma Ascetic claim helped tremendously, and I likely wouldn't have done that without getting the coffee/recruit on Bianco Day 1, so that is a swing that went in our favor.

Just had a thought, now I know when we don't fight in a game......you are scum lol.

well, i would have faked it, but you were too trusting of me

[Flavor Leaf]

i tried to fake it, the Dan case was too strong, though lol

There was a nagging paranoia that you were pulling a fast one on us, but I kept doubting it as just that. Plus I was so tunneled on Dan I didn't have time to actually think about you lol.

Apologies to Dan for that as well.

Flavor is a damn good bullshitter, and though I was already onto Theta, I probably wouldn't have ever caught Flavor had I survived. My guy basically claimed NK immune miller and we all just believed him.

Informed NK immune miller. i had to retract that the next couple phases, though, ofc, lol

Just curious why you two chose who to convert, and why in that order?

I gave the name Nova. we got Nova.

Gave the name Arden, got Arden.

Didnt get a N3 one.

Roden had claimed Lennox, so we went Lennox because I could warrant teaming up with Roden in thread, and he was starting to town read Dan, so didnt want to lose his vote.

You were chosen as the 'take them to win with us'.

So Roden was the only choice, and only one we knew 100%. And only kinda knew 100% because Roden started coming after me too, haha.

The only reason you would convert me was when you knew you would win lol, but appreciated.

Roden definitely had a tonal shift, seemed obv they were a convert.

I think I've gotta stick to openish games for a while. This kinda thing is killing me. Just because it's got a bastard mechanic that doesn't mean the rest of it's got to be wack. NK's role is just a big middle finger to town- it's just straight up negative utility and thus drove everyone to the wrong PoE.

When scum gets to just give town information about how the damn game works and get away with it, it's probably a sign that town does not have enough information.

Without that damn FG misdirection, I maaaaaybe eventually start to consider Leaf? There were certainly points where I poked at the idea a little, but his play kept me from bothering to seriously try to disentangle whether all his roleclaim worked. I sort of realized that I didn't actually have a specifically strong reason to exclude him in my PoE notes right at the end there so I just went with "oh come on" and probably could've delved more into that in a world where it wasn't too late and people actually cared.

[Maestro]

yeah basically when it looked like FL was trying to fade me I wanted to make it appear to any sane person there was no way in fuck I looked like their convert partner lol

[Titus]

I think if we hit a cult, conversion should have been blocked. We had a total of what three miseliminations the entire game and no info

[ActionDan]

I do think the choice of culting drew was appropriate

[Doctor Drew]

Kinda was that if somehow the game continued I would have been such obvCult(even I wasn't recruited)

[RH9]

I'll finish writing the victory flavour soon.

[RH9]

Or at least get something there.

[Narration]

I'll release threads later today when I return home.
Sorry for forgetting to do so this morning.

[Aureal]

I'll release threads later today when I return home.
Sorry for forgetting to do so this morning.

[RH9]

I ended up busier than expected and forgot.
I promise I'll get them released once I get the time.

[RH9]

all threads are released now!

[RH9]

i'll work on remaining flavour soon.
