Okay, why exactly was I nightkilled? I was 100% convinced it was Snow White and would have hung on her furiously

Wow. Lesson 1, or maybe 5: "if they look like scum...they're probably scum."

I WIFOM'd myself into trusting bgg. Everyone say "Good job, CB."

Great game everybody. It was a real pleasure playing my first game on this site with all of you, and I can't wait 'till next game.

Any of you who are (rightly) quite disappointed with this result, I assure you that normally this kind of ending doesn't happen (certainly, in a newbie game, the IC is usually aware of the autodeadlines). I would say, though, Xtoxm, a subtle reminder of the deadline in a vote count or some such might have been helpful, not just for me but for the newbies as well.

Now, I hope you guys will remember in future:

1) Votes based on nightkill speculation are not good votes - Snow White was town!
2) If the most experienced/proficient player is alive late game, they're not necessarily scum!

Bgg played great newb-town. I didn't realize he already had 200 posts.

So, what were the reasons for the NKs?

Probably to confuse town and give no leads while also searching for the potential PR. If the NKs give no information, the town is stuck with day conversations as their only clues (assuming no cop). It solidifies scum's abilities if they are solid in town talk. Just a guess. Also, it was probably meant to shoot suspicion elsewhere (Snow white for example). May be wrong, though.
don't you feel silly now?

Roleblocks:

N1 - No action submitted
N2 - Snow White
N3 - CDB

Kichirou sumbitted the N1 kill.

Yeah, in normal circumstances I would have, but I didn't have much time for the site towards the end of the game.

*Jaw Drop*

A replacement would have been a FAR better choıce sınce bgg had obvıously waıted untıl the tıme ran out. If ı had not already fınıshed another game before thıs one and ınvested ın several more ı would have never come back to thıs sıte.

Am ı dısgruntled? Yes. *Sıgh* Im annoyed how the game played out and yeah. I was town. Lolç surprıse. surprıse!

-Thanks to CDB for helpıng me wıth all my querıes. I thought you were an awesome IC now you were proved town.

-CB was an ıncredıble player to play wıth throughout who actually naıled me as ınnocent. *applause*

-Im sorry for Craypıanıst1116 who ı hounded lıke the hammers of hell and ı guess thats ıt.

Good luck everyone. I wısh ı could say ıt was an awesome game. But ın my opınıon. It wasnt. Sorry.

As always.

Heh. To be honest, Snow White, once DTF flipped town, I was sure you were scum.

And yes, ChannelDelibird, you were a phenomenal IC. Thank you for guiding us newbies through this game. More or less, but mostly less, intact. :P

Easy. You were nightkilled because the scum thought they could hang Snow White out to dry for it, and nearly succeeded.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I hope I'll get to play with some of you again.
