That's pretty unfortunate. :-\

Worked out not too bad though. Look at it this way: you managed to be the last surviving mafia on your team in your first game. That definitely counts for something.

He conceded...meaning we bumped the lynch up three hours to save everyone time.

Thanks for playing all! Congrats to town. Some pretty strong performances all around.

Never once insulted you. I will maintain this until the end of time. No mod contacted me about my play. Everything I stated was a direct relation to your play and nothing about you.

Lmao @ Cel. But I won't lie, ritoky and yosu went back and forth like 50x in my mind. And it's nothing special but this one here

I wanted feedback on it so badly cuz I rarely do full blown posts like that and I want to know what to work on.

Mafia are permitted to concede at a reasonable point in the game. They lost a ML with the vigishot and y0su was the only one left.

Well I have no idea where the RNG gods will smile or frown. I leave that to the RNG gods.

Still much appreciated Kita. My town game needed a load of work, and I'm glad I just had some input trying to work on my weaknesses this game. <3

If you're the last scum and don't feel like you can win the game, I believe you're allowed to concede to not drag it out longer. Or something like that.

Honestly, the reference "town donkey" is noted about a town player who is playing suboptimally. Basically town players who play like scum, like sicklucker. You will hear others use the term "donkey" or "town donkey" it just means that your play isn't helping town. That's all he means. Personally I found your play more helpful than I did ritoky's but like I said in D1, ritoky and I had different perspectives on reading people based on my experience with players and his lack of experience with those same players.

To me, in D1, not having the same reads as someone isn't cause for concern, it's how they get there. Which that mentality worked in getting y0su. So I don't feel so badly now lol.

Anywayz, ty for the carry after day 1 super and hts. Sorry about my skepticism toward you all game HtS, it's just for some reason you have a way with new players and swaying them into your loving embrace. That terrifies me in games like this, so I refused to town read you all game out of a similar paranoia that you hold for me LOL.

Honestly -c-, I don't feel I said anything wrong or out of line to you; but if any of it struck home, sorry. It is a game, I leave it all in the thread and take none of it away. I also used to get angry like you did in this game and so I see a little of the old me in you, and I sincerely hope you can get past it as a player. You will drastically improve if you can stem the anger and maintain a level head.

Was fun game, baller day 1 into useless rest of game. Sounds exactly like my town play.

Cya in the next game nerds.

I'm not surprised. I didn't end up actually complaining to anyone about it.

You did insult me. It was a direct insult. And its amusing you have a go at my play when you did absolutely nothing to help town this game.

Your link is broken, but I found it anyway, heh.

Was a good case. Personally I hadn't liked the way he split up his reads across two posts either. Especially given the way one half of them was pretty town and the other half pretty scum.


As for how to improve it...personally for me I'd have preferred to see it formatted a bit differently. Each quote with a comment specific to that quote underneath so it was easier to follow. As it was it was kinda "Bleh, wall of quotes" "Bleh wall of texts" and honestly the very first time I saw it I just skimmed before going back later when I was firming up my PoE list.

that was honestly because it was 10 am (i'd been up for 30 hours) and I was doing my list straight down from the OP

I literally couldn't read anymore :D
(much less make up reads based on what I was reading)

But Celestial, I'll be very honest with you here...this batch of veterans are normally very tame. Criticism of gameplay is the normal in mafia, even with town/town interactions - a really good scum player will know how to get into people's heads, and I've seen it before with some of the heavier tone players like geript/rayn/holyflare/JAT, etc.

And that's something I can safely say for most of this community, things get heated in game, but people drop it after post-game. Even when town loses (and there's a lot of people fussed about the result) people get things off their chest post-game, mods are there to keep the peace, and people move on afterwards.

It's honestly something you (and even I to an extent) need to work on. Even as town, you're not going to be perfect overnight.

Sorry about my skepticism toward you all game HtS, it's just for some reason you have a way with new players and swaying them into your loving embrace. That terrifies me in games like this, so I refused to town read you all game out of a similar paranoia that you hold for me LOL.


Also rit, I have done this as both alignments. Beyond my alignment, part of me thinks "if this newb has this question why isn't the newbie asking a coach" but if you interpreted that as buddying I can see why you'd think that to be a problem. People who know my play better should treat that as NAI, though I was trying to use WIFOM as an argument because that was y0su's main argument against me.

I just had some difficulty trying to make sense I wasn't scumming people for things that didn't necssarily make them scum, and then stacking against experience. It took a while for me to get out of it on ritoky until I realised why he thought y0su was town...and why he might be wrong.

As for Blazinghand's timezone being a problem - yeh that 11h time difference holy shit, and I think Stutters is pretty far west too. So you were quite isolated once prplhz got lynched.

Unlucky, that.
