Newbie 1079: Feed the Lynch Mob (Game Over)

[GreyICE]

Btw nacho any objection to the QT out? It's quite boring

[Nachomamma8]

Nope.

Wouldn't mind a review myself, that was probably my most conventional scum game ever.

You were dead on on Hero but I hate taking the obvious shot

[Voidedmafia]

Not so much guess as "I might as well vote him"

Though, really, if Traveller was here and not Panda, you would've definitely gotten my vote once the day began.

But, could you explain why voting your strongest town read would be best? Wouldn't that just make the scum hammer (unless you're scum)?

[Nachomamma8]

Reasoning behind it is that if someone is a strong town read, then they would be a townread for others as well.
If they were a townread for others as well, then the scum would kill them.

It's not reliable, but it's something to think about.

The other reason is that when selecting who to kill the night before the scum did not pick you.

That means they:
1) Think they can mislynch you
2) Think you will vote town.

It's usually a mixture of the two.

It's nowhere near reliable enough to be called an immutable law, but Panda was on the right track. I'm actually a little surprised that he figured it out, and it's one of the reasons Panda played very well.

[Jora]

Yeah, I kew it. Just as I said - Grey kiled me. How predictable.


Two of strongest players were scums in all VT setup. Looks to me this game was rigget from the begining.

I'm kidding. Congrats, Grey and Nacho!

[Jora]

Bastards! My wiki is totally ruined.

I meant, Herodotus, you was great too, but you replaced in only after begining, right?

[Herodotus]

I was content with how you handled activity, Equinox.

I had a feeling that had happened.

Grey and Nacho, you must have been excited to see who your buddies were.

I think your safest approach for night 2 would have been to try to kill someone most likely to be a doctor. (I was trying to give you the impression that I was a cop, though I probably failed.) If both a cop and doctor had been alive on day 3, the game would have been a guaranteed town win.
Which makes me wonder why Nacho claimed cop instead of doctor. If he had been counterclaimed by a cop, that cop would have been protected on at least night 2, leaving Grey in trouble.

Very strong play, GreyICE. I did pick up a few things I might have held against you, but you looked like a townie.

[Voidedmafia]

Hero, you think I could've done better if I hadn't replace in for Thil?

[Herodotus]

Maybe.
Thil13 wasn't playing a very pro-town game, but part of why I said in the graveyard QT that I suspected you was that you let yourself get bogged down while you were catching up. It looked like a way to avoid talking about current events (Nacho).

[Voidedmafia]

I guess so...

Yeah, we were about 70% in 7 VT by end of day 1, and 95% by end of day 2. So it didn't really matter what he claimed, because the town didn't have power roles it was screamingly obvious.

[GreyICE]

For those wondering how:

- No pr tells (screamingly obvious in most newbies). No one CERTAIN someone was town, or POSITIVE nacho was scum.
- We wagoned Panda, KoH, and Sn1pe day 1, with Jora dying night 1, and none of them gave off PR tells, claimed PR, or flipped PR.
- Nose. You can smell power roles in a setup most of the time. Something about town interactions gets weird. This was so damn mountainous.

[Traveller]

Interesting finale, gentlemen. Congrats to Nacho and Mr. Grey for the Mafia victory. And many thanks to Equinox for overseeing the madness.

[GreyICE]

You were a lot of fun to have around!

I was sad to shoot you, but even with the hammer, I wasn't selling anyone on you being scum.

[Equinox]

Flavor is done in case any of you read that stuff.

For those who responded, thank you for the feedback regarding my activity policy; it looks like I get to continue spamming prods.

I enjoyed following along in this game, and I hope to see all of you in future games!

[GreyICE]

Awesome flavor!

[Voidedmafia]

Every time, all the time.

[Traveller]

Agreed. Nice work, Equinox!
