Thoughts on the game
…
Overall I don’t have too much in the way of constructive criticism to give. Town played overall a pretty good game. Certainly at a higher level than I have seen in other Newbie games I’ve played in (an this only applies to the true Newbies … SEs are exempt from this pool that I am using to judge).
Specific advice / thoughts I can give
–
TOGTFO / Jerako
– The biggest thing I see that you both shared as an area of improvement is activity. Day 3 was critical to the success of Town to have an active Townset. More activity is better, all things being equal.
TOGTFO
– Your play Day 4 really was good. You were willing to open your eyes and re-assess when things didn’t make sense. You, however, needed to fight harder. As Town you know that your mislynch spells a loss for Town. Even if it was a doomed effort you should have fought harder to get either SpacePope or myself lynched.
Mogri
– If you are still around reading this … you played a good game from an instinct basis. You properly picked up on Jason and my partnership Day 1. If anything you need to hone your case building skills. Your manner of presenting how everyone was wrong in suspecting you was a little too condescending. Listing how each and every point was a fallacy from Wikipedia wasn’t convincing.
Darkcoffee
– Other than suggesting a little higher activity rate no issues. You were killed for a reason.
Project
– You did a good job holding your own throughout the game, especially when under pressure Day 1 and Day 2. If anything be a little more confident in your instincts.

I think Zach has done a great job explaining why a fake-cop claim was a bad idea from SpacePope. It almost worked out but had Jason gone back at Space I feel we might have been able to mislynch him Day 2 instead of Jason. Which isn’t a good outcome when it helps solidfy a fake-Cop claim.
To all three of you in MYLO
– I’m not going to quibble with the fact that you accepted lynching in MYLO since the result would have been a dead Project.
I will say that each of you was asking the right questions (did the scum know the set-up, assessing that I could be fake-claiming) but just didn’t push enough. Honestly there is no way that there could be a role-blocker in the set-up when fake-claiming Space was the NK target. My cop claim didn’t stand up to close scrutiny. Which is why I never pushed SpacePope as a suspect Day 4 … the more it was discussed the more my story would become more and more implausible.
Here’s the scum QT – Jason didn’t mention any qualms about posting it.

It isn’t very long but should hopefully help you understand how Jason and I played our game.
Thanks again to Zach for modding and thanks to everyone for making my first Newbie game experience as an IC a memorable one.

Pretty much Geriatric game restricted at this point ... unless there are players I REALLY want to play with.
gave you an easy slide for a bit until the last day, though you probably didn't need it. The bussing of Jason seemed like a genuine cop/guilty result (which I'm betting was your intention in case a doc flipped/claimed).
