I was pretty sure, but not 100%.....About 75%. That being said, I finally decided that nothing either of you would say would change that 75% either way, so I decided to just go ahead and do it.

As Nikanor is pushed towards the gallows, he seems to accept his fate. He gives you a cheeky wink as you tie the rope around his neck, and peacefully waits for the trap door to open. As he dangles from the end of the rope, relief washes over you. The ordeal is over.


Nikanor,
Mafia Goon
, was lynched on Day 4.



GAME OVER.
TOWN
WINS!

Well done indeed....My comments about each newbie:

bv310 - You need a little work, but overall, your lynch here was expediency over really scummy activity. You do need to work on not freaking out so much, and we could all use a bit of work on logic...


chauchaudotcom Excellent play. No complaints, you have a good future ahead of you on this site.

NikolaSama - You seriously need to work on some things. You come across as extremely lazy and arrogant, and your posts are difficult to decipher...

kirby_is_kyaan - Average play, but don't flake out next time!


SeerPenguin - Seer....Where do I start? You have a lot of potential, but you really need to reconsider the methods of your attacks. Attacking a replacement for the fact that their previous players flaked is illogical and could have just as easily been made against you. Your ferocity in regards to this lynch was also rather disturbing.

Tokillablockingnerd - Don't flake!

ace5993 - Ace, after a rough start, you definitely seemed to improve towards the last half of the game. Keep on this progression and you'll certainly go far. Pitfalls that you particularly need to watch out for are mainly along the lines of making simple, declaratory statements without backing them up with logic and making indecipherable posts that are difficult for anyone without a PHD in chatspeak to understand.

NavyCherub - By far, you are one of the best new players that I've seen. My only complaint with your play is your lynch of SeerPenguin - I would have voted Nikanor from the start of the final day if it weren't for that. Generally, avoid hammering until there is a full consensus towards a certain player's lynch and all players have contributed significantly.

Good game, all! Feel free to ask me any questions - that's what I'm here for.

SP: Don't be so hard on yourself, though. You should take this as a valuable opportunity to learn from your mistakes....Go back and read the game again, and reread your interaction given that you know who the scum is now. You might be surprised at what you find.

So it WAS Kirby!!!

But I was wrong about Nika. I actually investigated Neto N1 which made me rethink my original evaluation of Nika. But I was too dead to help.

Great job everyone! Hoorah!!

Of course I killed you. I can't believe nobody caught on to the fact that I was the only one with any motivation at all to kill you. :/
I am in the bottom 10% of scumhunters onsite!

Well, with BV, we all made a bit of a mistake. Honestly, towards the end, I started to get the feeling that he was town..but I knew that changing wagons at the last minute would be even more hurtful to town because it wouldn't give us enough information to make a more rational decision on the second day.

I wasn't used to actually having to explain myself. This was a pretty good learning curve though. I've been lurking this game since I went out. Still surprised TKaBN wasn't scum.

I wasn't, really. He played like a lot of other newbie players who aren't used to debate and who get cornered...As you say, it's tough to learn how to explain and defend yourself on the spot like that.
