So, the only people that were still alive were:
Mattchew (1 HP) gonzaw (1 HP) strongandbig (.5 HP) Keirathi (1 HP) HiroPro (.5 HP) austinmcc (1 HP) JingleHell (1 HP)
With Matt not able to bus himself, and gonzaw becoming red if Chell died, the only chance town had of surviving through the night was if JH made austin shoot Hiro, *AND* we just let Matt die. That would have put us at 2 red, 2 green, and 1 black. If JH made austin shoot anyone else, it wouldn't have mattered and still been end-game.

This D1 was a miracle or something. Considering there are 6 anti-town players that would be extremely happy with a misslynch, the chances of a D1 misslynch are high as fuck. After that...it's 6 scum 6 town and it's the same thing. Very early in the game there can be more scum than town. How the hell can town win from that?
Again, this game was like a super town display in comparison with what could have happened (D1 misslynch, N1 town death, D2 misslynch, N2 town death, bye bye town). If you get lucky and lynch Dr. Kliner black scum will have a really hard time. Black scum team had 0 killing power other than gordan, so their job is to help town lynch scum anyway to get a foot hold. so that shifts the balance of power to the town some degree. Other than that town had a TON of medic protection. You lost some of it fairly quickly but mass claiming imo was a bad idea. Even if you were going to do that the fact mattchew did not use his power lost the game for town. Without Jingle or Matt sending in powers, the scum team knew exactly what was in play and was able to plan out their shots perfectly to net 2 kills, when previously they were lucky to get 1.
Well..yeah but even if medics save every KP at night it doesn't matter if there are more scum than town at day that can very easily influence the lynches and misslynch.
Black scum yeah, they might want to kill scum but they want to survive as well so I don't think they'd oppose a misslynch or at least not put the same effort in trying to get scum lynched as town does (not even talking about lynching their own).
Assuming there were only 4 scum left the massclaim wasn't a bad idea to me lol. Just lynch one scum on D4, then lynch the other scum on D5, then maybe lynch the remaining scum on D6, easy.
I seriously doubt the lynches after that point would have been anything other than austin/Hiro/Jingle. Maybe they could get a misslynch on me or Mattchew though. It's just that with 4 scum and 4 town and more than 1 KP at night you can't expect town to do much lol.
Anyways the massclaim is what convinced me Jingle was scum so I don't really see it as bad. Also austin's claim was "too safe" as well and I put him as possible RS....but Jingle was the other option as considering how he acted on D4-N4 he had to be scum, which by process of elimination (if there was only 1 or 2 scum remaining) austin would be town. Other than that the claims hurt scum as well. Almost all of them except ghost claimed very passive abilities, and "unprovable" abilties, which is too convenient at that point in the game.
Well.....actually the only "new" town claims by that point were Matt's and mine. That's not a "massclaim" lol (if you only consider townies claiming). Also Mattchew claimed by himself it had nothing to do with me > : (
I had to claim in my mind to avoid getting misslynched and get more people to believe my claim and believe me being town by trying to explain everything I did. It didn't help that almost all scum casted suspicion on it though, but I think on D4 every townie believed my claim...which is quite the opposite of the "lynch gonzaw" attitude everybody had on N3.
So basically...the only "claims" town had were mine (that I made with the reasoning above) and Mattchews. So how exactly did it "hurt" town? I may understand Matt claiming being bad...and I don't really know why he claimed out of nowhere, but it's not really a "massclaim" if there are more fake-claims than real ones.

Also yeah! Right now it is indeed my birthday!
Don't know if this win is a good way to celebrate it or not...

I still can't believe how many people think I'm scum every time I'm town.
"Being scummy" and "doing anti-town stuff" is not enough since there are plenty of players out there that are scummy and do anti-town stuff as town but because of their attitude or meta they seem obviously town (also I'm not that scummy).
I feel like I'm one of them, specially when I reread the games where I'm scum and town and I say to myself "The differences are obvious! Hell I always act the same way when I'm town!"... ...meh, I guess that's something only I can see? Am I crazy here?
|
gonzaw for about 48 hours somewhere around n2, i didn't see you as "post every thought i ever have town gonzaw gungho" so i thought you were scum... outside that people tend to find little things in your sea of posts that stick out as scummy (i believe both factions do that) and then they get caught up on that
|
But both scum thought I was legitimately scum as well :/ It's not that they thought I was town and tried to get an easy misslynch on me....scum thought I was from the other scum team (both of them I think)
....I don't know what to think of that lol
N2 was the one where me and Jingle started that shitstorm right? I don't think there was nothing to do that night other than that though.

Hey, credit where due, you started a shitstorm , I just got absurdly lucky that people decided to skip over pages instead of realizing I was fanning the flames deliberately.
I think my worst slip that I was lucky nobody caught, though, was accusing you of foreknowledge on Draz. I really should have saved that for after the flip so nobody would notice it was almost like *I* knew he wasn't scum.
Really, roughly everything I said was scummy about you, I caught myself doing at some other point 2 seconds after I hit post. But by then nobody wanted to read anything that had both of our names in it.
By late, I had neutralized myself too effectively.

By the Ed of the game, if I saw you post and it had the word gonzaw anywhere in it, I basically just ignored it. Although I still thought you were scummy :p

Jingle:
Why didn't you use your action last night?

Then you didn't read very well. Neither austin nor I thought that you were scum. We just thought that you weren't revealing exactly what your role was (in terms of wincon).

I had no idea what Austin can do, and basically, I figured that IF Austin and Gonzaw were somehow both town, I didn't want to be visiting Austin, since an NK on him would have been smart if he were town. There weren't many scenarios (with the information available to me) where leaving my action on Austin made any sense compared to not taking an action.
|
What about before my roleclaim?
I remember you guys saying something, I think I'll check.
|
austin wrote in QT: JH what are you doing. I absolutely don't believe that role he claimed. It's both far too vanilla for this game AND his justifications for being town are bad.
Is he black scum? I still don't see that post against mattchew as coming from scum. I guess there's an outside possibility he and mattchew are BOTH black scum? Perhaps he could make a ridiculous argument in that case to distance himself from matt. But it still feels townie. I think he's hiding a way to be killed or something like that. Way to be killed, extra win condition, etc. I told you!
|
Oh yeah you guys didn't think I was scum.
...well, you didn't know there was another scum until D3, but still. Yay! At least my win-buddies didn't thought I was really scum 
@Hiro: If the only possible way you could be scum is being black, and there's also Jingle and ghost and Mattchew out there, I think using that "meta" thing to confirm you as non-BS was enough to convince myself for the time being. There was no way I could think of you as RS if you were IAM's sole remaining scumbuddy and just bussed him like that.
...if you guys were 3 scum it does make sense you bussing him (your other mate, austin, can try and force the lynch off IAM while you gain the town cred either way), but if you were 2 scum it wouldn't have made sense at all which is why you+Matt+Xfire were basically "confirmed non-RS".
And if I had to choose between you and ghost (and again maybe Mattchew) as BS I would have chosen you last. WIth all of that it's not that hard to misinterpret your meta from that other game you played.
....fuck I hate multiple-faction games. Why do I keep joining them?
...wait did I join this game? I think I was automatically signed up or something lol
|
Also I think I forgot to change my check last night away from Jingle (lol he was framed). Either way Hiro was untrackable so my ability wasn't that useful.
|
I wasn't untrackable exactly (my role description is a little confusing). I was untrackable if I didn't frame anyone.
If I framed someone, I bussed my watch/track results with their watch/track results.
|
Man, we still should have lynched Hiro.
He claimed that a night action on him got redirected. The only night action that we *KNEW* targetted him on night 2 was ghost. Hiro and ghost changed places in the list.
That should have been enough to lynch him, but I let myself get convinced that Hiro wasn't scum early, and couldn't change my mind even after his super safe claim that made more sense from a mafia alignment than a town one
|
Yea, you should have lynched me for that. I had just woken up when I made my claim and I couldn't really think of what the right targets to claim were T_T I just forgot that our positions got switched.
Edit: Well actually no you shouldn't have. It's entirely possible that scum were hiding their roles and someone else targeted me that night. Unlikely, but possible.
My behavior should have gotten me lynched, but that's a different story.
|
Also I think I let you slide because I was convinced that austin was RS because of his play this game, and that Jingle was scum too. And I really only expected 2/2
