cjdrum

null-
everyone else that isn't in my scum-list.

scum -
toro
snarky (because he has yet to do anything useful, and is still fencesitting afaik.)

i don't want the hammer either, this lynch sucks.

vigil wherever you are shoot snarky or toro k

This post right here was while I was tunnelling DK and hadn't come up with my list so I don't see how in any way you could say your team was losing at that point??
I realized that I was planting seeds, and that it was important to stay low-key, because once you say, 'I've got it' or 'This is it,' then resistance starts to build. But, if you start giving away seeds, people will claim their seeds. Some nurture them and grow them, and that makes a foundational change.

Well glad ur back. Try to find a playstyle that gives you the best success (not getting lynched, finding scum, getting other townies lynched as scum etc.). Keep going!

The Votecount for the Game


Votecount 5.2


With 3 alive, it takes 2 to lynch.

jilynne1991(2): [Low Key], jilynne1991

Not Voting(1): DeityKabuto

We have a lynch.


[insert text here on why the final scum decided it would be better to hang herself.]


jilynne1991,
a Mafia Goon,
has been hanged.

AND THAT'S THE GAME. TOWN WINS!!!!!!


I will now be taking comments on how my modding was great, and how I can improve it.

My first mistake would have been me posting the QT's(that would be a laugh) in the sample roles, but saw that right before I posted.

You did great. I would of liked more votecounts at certain times but I'm prob OCD.

A thread in MD has begun regarding early nights and such. I have posted that player error caused the loss but that a sitewide rule should be in place that if a night is to end early, all living players must have logged in from the time that night began.

I actually enjoyed your deliberate lack of flavor.

Maybe you can help me with my blindspot because I just don't see how it was obvious that Parab (not Jill, but Parab) was the scummier choice over DK...?

1. I was posting them once a day, never more never less. I work 9-10 hours a weekday and work on a farm on the weekends, so really posting votecounts more was kind of impossible.

2. Yup, I am changing my rules for the next time around. And yes the entire game, I was letting masons and scum telling me when they were ready to go, which caused my fudge at the end. As you can see I told spad he had the option of going the full 72 hours even though I knew he was going to die.

3. My creativity is horrible, so it was only thing I wanted to do. Make up something on the spot.

4. I would consider Dk a null read, based on the fact that he never knew what was happening. So really it was either whether you saw Jill as a townie or scum to decide the lynch. So yeah I find scum slips outweighing anything townie done beforehand. Also my very first game I bussed my partner(only vote on him the entire day) day 1, up to my lynch. Won the game, because nobody believed I would do that, so he survived. 2nd game I put someone at L-1, Pops my scumbuddy then puts me at L-1. Again won the game and survived till the end because of that move, even though I was straight out scummy. So never base your read on what scum might not do, but instead on what scum does.

Point #4 well taken, added to profile.

I would like to further clarify however. Clearly DK was an obvious scum bus candidate and that seemed to me far more likely than Parab bussing both scum with a vig call and heavy voting -- especially because Parab didn't appear to be very experienced.

I agree with everyone that Jil was scumming up the thread as soon as she replaced but I'm trying to see how I can like totally detach myself from such excellent play from her predecessor especially because she is obviously new.

Can you see my difficulty there?

If I survived, I will put in addition that Parab voted for Toro and Snarky WITH NO CASE WHATSOEVER and OUT OF THE BLUE. He also put everyone in town list and only 2 in the scumlist (there are 3 scum in this game)

But I didn't survive lulz

There's also the fact that he said nothing about slumps; he is speaking more to his nubile nature than anything else.

@ pappums rat: Self-perception governs your reality. If you treat yourself as if you cannot improve, then, well ... good luck with that. But if you stop acting like a VI and stop seeing yourself as one (both are important), then you'll stop being one. And as for your experience, it'll come. You'll know when you're not a newbie any longer. It will be the feeling you get in your bones when you discover that you know how to spot things that some other players don't quite know how to spot yet. Or when you notice things and read what they mean instead of what they say. When you get that feeling, you'll know when you've "made it", so to speak. It happens earlier on for some than for others, and for a few, it never happens at all. But by asking, you're at least going down the right path.

If you really want to get into it, go read some games that are already finished, and play a game with yourself: every time somebody notices something that you don't notice yourself first, ask yourself the question "how does player X know information Y?" and if you can come up with the answer by reading through their posts (or even by PMing them about it, asking them), then you'll understand just that much more. And if you can't spot anything that helps you out, then go find out at the end of the game (or the beginning, as the case may be) if they were a power role. Power roles always know a bit more about things than everyone else, depending on the PR they hold. And if you realize that they only knew more than you because they held a PR, that's a double-whammy because there's no way you could have had their inside info, AND you just learned how to spot that power role a little bit better.

So there's no real A-B-C to improving. It's just practice, practice, practice.

And you can have fun without being good at the game AT ALL. A lot of people do it. Nobody said you had to be good at anything to have fun doing it. I mean, look at a lot of players on this forum. They aren't especially good, but a lot of them they play a lot and are subsequently getting much better.

Anyway, if you have any questions, hit me up via PM.

Change PAPPUMS to you and that's my answer, sir.
