Zoraster.
You blew the biggest chance at the best gag ever.
Zor has little patience.
Psyche this reminds me of when Mehdi and I won the Scummie. Had to pull an arm and a leg to be invited to the Scummies Invitational. Replaced in because I was never actually invited despite holding two that year.
But you remained on site the entire time? So clearly you had some sort of availability that life didnt take away from you?

I mean not really
I literally sit on a toilet and post for 90% of my games. You can really see a difference of when I am at a computer and when I am phone posting in my isos.

As someone who didn't participate (didn't know how cancer treatment would affect my time on site) but followed along, I feel fairly confidently neutral in saying this: This is pretty terrible.
It's been shown long ago that win/loss records don't really correlate in any way to talent/ability or contribution. This is especially true when game imbalance and uneven distribution of factions plays a factor. I never won a paragon based on win/loss record, and though I haven't tallied my raw statistics in years, I know that at least as of like 2011 I had more town losses than wins. There's something fundamentally wrong with the scoring when a team that did relatively little in their victories happened to be the only team that went 4-0, because their non-teammates carried them to victory four times. The idea that overall win/loss record should be a major determining factor in Team Mafia is about as backwards as can be.
This was a big gripe against The Captains when we won it in 2012.
What metric would you rather have?

Westeros Circlejerk was so unlucky. Damn.
The more I read the scum PT in the Nightless game the more I agree with Metal Sonic. That game really wasn't one where you wait for the town to mess up. You had to pull out all of the stops.
