See how you tend to construct arguments and make posts. Because Damdred was right, you really didn't post much like your previous games at all. Also, if you're posting in QT, you should probably be posting in thread. You need to consider why you're bussing. Because bussing Sandroba was the wrong play. Like you should've been bussing me there. Like you really want to be thinking ahead and figure out what your win condition looks like in this specific game and then play in such a way that you can meet those conditions. I think in this game you were really just trying to not lose the game. My experience is that when mafia tends to play not to lose, they're more likely to just lose. Because they allow town to do whatever they and and don't prevent town from actually doing important shit. | ||

To be fair the majority of the town as Townreading you Day 2 so bussing you would be a bad idea for me. I did look at my past games but I just couldn't get enough motivation esp with being Nuked for part of Day 1 which really took a toll on me T_T | ||

I honestly think that if you go back to your newbie game where I raged at you, and counted the amount of posts per day you did there and then copy/paste "I'll give my thoughts when I get back!" exactly like you did in that game, I'll never see you as mafia. you will always be a cointoss. Until I get another tinfoil hat anyway. | ||

I personally thought I had a pretty solid first cycle (particularly night 1). The problem was, I really did have 2 midterms last Thursday. So I get home ~6-7pm every night, then have a few hours to catch up/post, but I couldn't even do that Wednesday night because i had to study. Then I made a (albeit probably poor) decision to go out with friends Thursday after midterms were over and didn't get home until way too late to look at the thread and actually be able to get up for school the next day, so I put it off again. Somehow, in the middle of all of that, my TL tab got closed, and since I generally don't visit TL unless I'm playing mafia, I didn't think to check it friday, and so I didn't vote. All the good play in the world doesn't excuse leaving the thread for ~72 hours or whatever. Basically I threw away any real good-will I had for my day 1/night 1 play and put me on the back foot. So, sorry to my teammates for that. It's pretty inexcusable. I was in a position to have a good game and I fucked it up. [snip] Bleh, I was going to write a bunch of stuff here about individual players, but it felt kinda sleezy only mentioning the players I was familiar with and leaving out a bunch of people, so I decided it was better not to. I do have a question for Toad though: Why did you save Kita night1 instead of rayn? Not that I think it's a bad decision to save kita there, obviously, but I feel like rayn has a lot more...uh...thread control? than kita ever does. Kita is an excellent player, but not very often is he the driving factor behind a lynch. Rayn can and is that person. Also @rayn: you scumread me last game and townread me this game. Boggling :O | ||

There's no way I would have pushed for you, my townread on you was quite massive otherwise on d1. | ||

Until I get another tinfoil hat anyway. No worries I will just bleed town when I'm town in future games if I don't just lynch me. Also weren't you suppose to ##Vote me Day 1 instantly because what happened in the Newbie game? | ||

Boggling :O You actually had a couple very good posts. I thought you were town. I was comparing you with Bats and fecal and eliminated you for being mafia. I mean Bats thought I was mafia with Mocsta AFTER mocsta flipped. Talk about not interested in the game. How do you not lynch a guy like that? | ||

HTS is apologizing profusely for shooting me, but lmao don't worry about it. A large number of players think I'm a hard read, even in games I'm incredibly active in. | ||

Boggling :O I explained that in the obs QT. Came down to me thinking that geript was town at that point. I was thinking about wether to protect Kita or rayn quite a lot actually but thought that there's no way geript actually got a vig and would claim it because if he got a vig power that'd confirm his as mafia. So I thought he fakeclaimed it as town. Because I thought geript was town I thought mafia might be scared to shoot rayn in fear of wasting a KP on someone a crazy townie was shooting anyways and changed my protection to Kita thinking that mafia would shoot Kita+Toad n1 instead of Rayn+Toad (was pretty damn obvious that I'd get shot). I lucked out that you actually had 3 KP in the end I guess  Had I not townread geript I would have protected rayn 100% of the times. | ||

(Artanis): you saved kita though Erik: did I? (Artanis): yup Erik: fuck yes (Artanis): they were shooting damdred first (Artanis): then changed for kita Erik: I fucking wanted to do that last second post Erik: but fucked up Erik: GOD DAMN IT Erik: screwed up by 60 seconds for some reason (Artanis): so the ninja shooting damdred made your save useful Erik: why would they shoot damdred Erik: wtf Erik: so wait, who shot rayn (Artanis): because damdred can suddenly start playing really really well (Artanis): geript Erik: ... Erik: so geript is mafia? (Artanis): yes Erik: ... (Artanis): that should've been obvious on account of him getting a vig shot Erik: yeah Erik: I did not think he got one (Artanis): what are the odds the town spirit is going to give a vig shot to anyone on the first night Erik: 0% Erik: but I did not think he got one (Artanis): ah Erik: I fucked up big time Erik: DAMN IT Erik: that would be a 100% kill had I gotten that post in | ||

Man I was so convinced you were ninja. I felt you cared like Robik did, just keep town alive long enough to find the other ninja, and I figured the Rsoultin and Damdred shots felt YOLO. When I think of yolo I think you hahahaah | ||
