ITs not like theres any prestige being invited anyway. Literally half the community was in it lol. Theres no obligation its not like you were picked out of 100 candidates. Its like 13-20 people of 40 candidate some of which are coag Lol, why do you think lex and i were hosting?  More seriously, I think both camps are right. I do think that people feel more obligated to accept when personally asked to join an invite game by someone, but you and jat are right to say that this feeling is illogical. If you don't have time, don't play. It's the same to me as, if you don't feel like you can play both alignments, don't /in. Everyone knows what they're getting into when they sign up.Also @kita...yeah. It's a little silly how often people blather on about mod confirmations, and how often hosts have to consider what an action will appear to be even if it's not that at all to someone with limited or no information. I honestly don't actually care if people use faulty logic for their reads. We all do at one time or another. It's only a problem when they use it as an excuse to break the rules and ruin the game for all the other players. It was as disappointing for me to see behavior like this from the so-called "best" of TL as no doubt it was for the players who were actually looking forward to this game. I just hope the people who need to take something from how it played out do. Notes for future rsoultin hosting: 1) re-confirmations if necessary 2) be more clear with host posts (I actually think that simply saying "anyone who isn't a player or a host should stop posting in an on-going game" might have prevented some of the nuttiness here, but hindsight and all that.) That said, also open to any other suggestions. I know hosts can't control players but I can't help but feel that we probably could have done something to keep this better contained. | ||

Mage, I think I already went over with you regarding your day 1 play, I can see why you avoided HF v rayn after your initial townread but you should have at least tried to give a further attempt at the mess because I think from what we discussed that is part of the reason DYH was scumreading you and Trfel for whatever reason wasn't buying your initial townread. It was on you to clear that up - you called Trfel for accountability but if you had entertained the possibility of him being town, and it looked to me you did, you should have cleared that up. I don't know if it was the primary reason Trfel shot you but it might have cleared up some confusion there, otherwise people didn't seem like they wanted to lynch you based on your responses in thread and it seemed obvious that you were honestly giving everything a go and trying to think things through. Ultimately you were just unfortunate that Trfel was the vig. Same to what a few others said, ALotSoMuch, this is not the norm for this site. The next newbie is up, looks like Smurf is going up soon, and Greymist's game has one spot open left for the taking (see here) so if those interest any of you, I think your experience in those games will be better. And Grey always has different mechanics but that will be part of the fun in his games. | ||

If it could have been that you got more people for a reroll I would have gone on the replacement list again. I also didn't have time to see a reroll and contact you since I had my pm already. Either way I stuck it out and people spammed the thread from obs and while the host message wasn't intended to be directed towards me it wouldn't have necessarily been posted if I was mafia. Rayn sure took my posts and the obs spam and the host message to mean I was town at least. You should be requesting bans for those people. huh, I didn't see what happened (haven't read this game) but as a general rule it's super super unacceptable for observers to post in the game thread. Like that shit should NOT be allowed in ongoing games, at all. As a host you gotta pm people or post in the thread and let them know not to do this On January 19 2016 06:23 VisceraEyes wrote: I'm going to go ahead and say it. Even though ultimately rayn and HF's little tizzy ended up ending this game, I for one appreciate the fact that the gamma-irradiated profanity monster that rayn usually becomes was able to lie dormant for this game. :D so... this was a "Good" rayn performance then kekeke | ||
