He changed his mind today because I made it clear I was going to lynch him.
That's not true. Look at my posts 125, 131, and 133.

From post 125:
Alan Redgown wrote:LadyUranus is looking the most scummy to me right now. First she put Stoofer at L-1, and now Andycyca, the other IC. Now, this behavior might seem too obvious to be a scumtell, but The Craftman and LadyUranus are both newbies, so I think it's a definite possibility.

Vote:LadyUranus

Xtoxm wrote:AR...I believe the way LU and CM were voting each other now proves LU innocent.

And like I said before, that's a "newb-tell", not a scumtell.
Actually, I'm starting to think you're right. Andy's summary of LU's posts only proves the newb point further.

Ok, time to
unvote
and reconsider things. :?

Could you please explain that? They could be distancing as well...
That's what I was thinking at first, but then again, if The Craftman and LadyUranus (both newbies) were scumbuddies, would they even know to distance themselves? I recently hosted a game on another forum in which there were 30 players, 5 of whom were scum. Too many newbies ended up as scum, and there was only a single instance in which one scum voted for another. Even the experienced players didn't realize they weren't distancing themselves enough, until it was too late. (Of course, this other forum isn't centered around Mafia. What's common sense here isn't always common sense there.)

Considering that some of the experienced players on that forum know the value of distancing about as much as the newbies here, I don't think it's likely that LadyUranus is The Craftman's scumbuddy. If she is, at least she knew to distance herself from The Craftman.
A vote, an unvote, and an "I don't think it's likely that LadyUranus is scum". All three quotes are from yesterday. I changed my mind yesterday, not today when you made it clear you wanted to lynch me.

Also...

Um, I was the one who did the breakdown. Make sure you know who you're lynching before you vote. :P
I don't know what you know I know.

You so did not deserve to win this.
Smooth as silk when he's scum, and very much capable of running things from behind the scenes while appearing to be doing minimal effort. - Almost50
Xtoxm is consistently great - Shosin

I know. :D I was stunned when you mentioned "Andy and AR...possibly with The Craftman replacing one of them". :lol:

Your deductions really were spot-on! This was my first game as scum, and I was fairly busy with other stuff, so I ended up playing more under-the-radar. I'm not proud of that, but I guess it sometimes works better than being extremely active (like I almost always am).

I was really worried that Stoofer would be healed when I targeted him. But he said that he usually gets killed right away, so I decided to fulfill his prophecy. :wink: Probably the best decision I made all game. If Stoofer had lived to see Day Three, I'd be a dead goon right now.

Anyway, Xtoxm, you sometimes do seem hasty, but that's really a good thing. I just tried to make it out to be a flaw in my analysis. When you see a scumtell, you charge.

Good game, townies! Craftman, I'm sorry I let you die Day One, but it worked out. :)

Andy in post 127 wrote:3. AR had the opportunity to hammer and didn't do it, so he's either the worse goon I've seen or another innocent.
Dammit. I have to admit that was SO wrong. Not hammering made you VERY protown in my POV (of course it didn't matter that much after my lynch) I don't have a lot of advice, as I'm not that good but you did good. Just don't try to play under-the-radar everytime.

My only advice would go to LU: It takes some (or lots of) nerve to publicly admit not knowing something and openly asking for an answer.
Great for you!
This is what newbie games are for. Just try to post more content rather than just agreeing. Of course, in order to do that you need some practice. I recommend signing up for a Mini Normal (or a Large Theme, it's your choice after all)

Good game everyone.

Aw! So close! (I blame my friend, I had her pick randomly.)

Well, this certainly was an experience. I had no idea it was be so complicated. I'm glad I started small!
