how does it feel to win and lose in the same game?

 

Hahahaha I told him I was all for subbing in scum in the DT because that way, I was guaranteed a win regardless.

[Aquilla]

Yes AJ, BFG you don't know how much I thought we had lost going into that.

lol yeah

[Gentled Ben]

Also Lenlo, why didn't you just bring SK back?

For the WIFOM. AJ totally called it at the start of D2.

[Gentled Ben]

 

Sorry for putting the town through this.  I won't run it again.

 

Grats scum!

 

nah the setup was a lot of fun, and tbh I probably should've lost the final round, I had an advantage of being someone people haven't seen play.

 

I hated the set up until I understood it. It ended up being really fun.

when did you guys find out I was the symp, I don't think I ever directly softed it

[Lenlo]

Also Lenlo, why didn't you just bring SK back?

Because he was AFK and I had no faith in the slot.

 

I gambled on tinfoil rather than relying on someone who was never around.

exactly, once you know what you're doing it's a great idea. 10/10 would play again

lol k, glad you were able to spot it in the end. I wasn't intentionally trying to hide, but I didn't feel safe softing it

[Aquilla]

Well played scum

 

you see why I saw saying it was possible for AJ to be the symp now? lol

[Andrej]

I haven’t had a game like that in a long time. You guys pulled it off you scummy sobs

 

Sorry for the tension I produced last night and the day before. I’m a competitor and like any human I get frustrated sometimes. You guys executed perfectly this last day. Going toe to toe and counter punch for counter punch. I’m exhausted

[Shad_]

Here's the problem in a nutshell from a mod pov:

 

Most Mafia games will include a player or two who participates enough to stay in the game but can't really contribute, for whatever reason.

 

Traditionally, this is part of the game.  We don't fault these people.

 

But we do lynch them.

 

Most games that aren't blow-outs are decided by the middle of the pack.  I provided scum with a means to eliminate a few strong villagers, but I failed to account for the fact that a lot of villages need to be able to eliminate a few of their own to win a game.

You did a brilliant job of looking like town while subtly furthering out agenda! As for signalling, you kinda suck, but that's okay, because you lasted and won it for us at the end.

lol yeah I had the logic advantage on you thankfully because I was able to grasp my head around the setup. I couldn't have ever beaten you in sheer towniness though

Its cool. I retaliated abit in the QT, as you will see. No hard feelings.

Dude, we felt BAD! I personally really like you, but I wanted to win, and I assumed (hoped) you'd get over it once it ended, so I just kept it up and kept it up, even when it was obviously upsetting you. Maybe even especially then.

[Andrej]

Let’s hug it out Lenlo. You know I love you

[BFG]

Was not expecting the team to split that way lol

lol yeah I wasn't risking signaling when everyone was gonna keep a hawk eye's watch for it. So I just tried my best to show that I was thinking logically about the game.

yeah that's fair, the towns who do well are the ones who die in comparison to the scummy people.
