ARGGH WTF WAS UP WITH ATKI'S ABILITY!!!?? AARGUGUGUG

Okay I finally took that off my chest in the thread

I think marv/Risen got a bit lucky here. For whatever reason no one ever attacked him (biggest mistake by Fulblade perhaps?) But overall good game by everyone :p

if you ran this again bugs, would you keep the double lynches in? seemed to really thin out the numbers fast

Thanks for the great run, Bugs.

And really, huge shoutout to both Sent and Marv/Risen for some clutch, clutch plays after I died.

yeah probably. Double lynches favor the individual players, it's one of the few mechanics that does.

e: and by individual players I mean individuals who are able to pit the alliances against each other.

I think if individual players can hone their persuasive abilities they can persuade the alliances that the other alliances are the biggest threats and to lynch them.

You mean he couldn't produce troops or something?

no walls. One attack on n1 and he was dead (basically what happened)

Whoever got yanked by Atki could easily have broken alliance with him and outed him to the thread. Would have been hard to justify not lynching him. He also didn't have jack shit in the way of defenses lol

I don't think anyone is in a position to break an alliance in this game, and nobody would.

If Atki produces enough troops I don't see how his "defensive handicap" would have mattered, specially if other allies of him traded troops to him.

Also damn, up until N1 or so I thought our "Conversion Resistance" ability RBed the guy we used it on from making night actions as well as receiving them

It's funny how I was planning on using that "Resist Conversion" ability the night Atki used his ability on us, but of course decided not to because ET was going to ally us that night (if I had chosen to protect myself then ET couldn't have allied to us)

Oh cruel world...

Resistance is futile.

Thanks for hosting!

Think of it this way....why would you "break" an alliance with someone else, if by doing so you prevent yourself from winning if that player is the last one standing?

If you are mad at that guy, well you can always just never communicate with him, but you wouldn't break his alliance at all
Well, maybe I forgot something in the OP about it and it does something else.

EDIT: Oh yeah, thanks to the hosts for this game.
Hopefully another one is hosted soon and I don't rage so much in it

You would be forced to break an alliance if one of the players you were allied to was about to meet their win condition before you were.

if the Teuton guy pointed his power at himself he would've stopped the Mongol power use that night.

sorry about some of the mistakes I made btw guys, the number of things coming in was a bit high for me to handle at times (particularly days 1 and 2 and night 1)

Also I have no clue why youtube never worked but I must've spent like 8-9 hours just trying to figure that out alone. All the videos were fine on my comp but in youtube they were perpetual grey screens. So, I just resorted to using screenshots.

The only way that would happen is he met his win-condition by having you win, in which case where's the problem?

If the guy is about to meet his win condition before you were he would have met it whether he was allied to you or not.

I take it you mean that he was allied to player B, and you+him+B are the only ones remaining or something yet you are not allied to B or something like that?
I don't remember if in that case the game ended with you losing or not..? If that's the case then I guess that's the only way to break an alliance with someone, but I doubt you'd do that on D2 after you were forced to be allied to the guy.

I just think it came down to one man and two man alliance groups very quickly and breaking alliance with atki to get him lynched would have been the play to go for. It's what I would do if he ripped me off from my homies.

Yeah well he died that night so that's kind of what happened actually
