Rough game all around. I guess I shouldn't have let the early ATE get to me.

I thought maybe something was up with val's frustration at his situation being legitimate but I couldn't figure out what the answer would be otherwise.

I'll be having a word with the listmod about T3 after the game officially concludes though, because in my opinion his play was absolutely inexcusable for a SE in a newbie game. The opening post says not to fakeclaim as town, doing what he did was completely antitown.

RR, sorry. For the record my vote was nothing to do with your posting and everything to do with wanting to test my townread. I was just wrong here.

I "mind melded" with you Catboi because going by past town games I knew you'd be a threat, and you proved you had pull with town decisions early on. We did get lucky with town imploding though, I'm not even sure why town kept fake claiming Mason or why Meg never claimed.

This was probably the worst thing you could've posted after what happened with Val.

Do you at all disagree with my analysis of your slot or how precarious of a situation you're in? It's implied that you do by keeping your vote on me, which is really not the take you should be having right now.
I don't disagree that Val fucked up with the mason thing. I also don't disagree that I am in a very precarious position here.

My issue is your attitude that my slot is doomed no matter what. Though you did waffle a bit about potentially switching to StD, frankly I don't believe that was genuine. I think you're scum trying to secure the final push here, but hedging your bets by soft bussing StD.



Ah, welp, Ninja'd.

Precisely what I expected to happen, though I had hoped I could stop it.
Maybe the real Mafia was the friends we made along the way

Oh yeah I was definitely soft bussing. I didn't think hard bussing would get me a win since I just won a scum game doing that, and I logically should be the NK if I push StD since I was mostly a consensus town read as it was.

Meh. I'm a mediocre town player. I don't really function well on my own.

Honestly I probably would have done the same in your situation. As long as no one was lurking with a surprise hammer, would have worked great if Roden actually were Town.

I don't want to seem like I'm diminishing your victory, though, which I realized this post could be taken as. I think you played well. I just chafe at undue praise.

No, we are not. Don't buy the crap catboi is selling here; We WOULD have been in MELO if scum killed last night, but there was no-kill; and so there is an extra player (six, not seven, I give you that) that there would have otherwise been, and thus another chance today.

In any case, even if catboi truely beleived we were in MELO, wouldn't that be an even stronger reason to vote the slot you are suddenly sure is scum, and encourage others to do so?

Also, this was REALLY funny to me.
I think Val did alright overall though, just... That mason claim.... Oof.

I didn't see/realize the mason soft by Val.

Then again I was the only player not looking for the other mason

The opening post also says typically don't claim until after intent to hammer is given. Good game everybody,

You did good! I think your passive play worked since it made you look like you were too apathetic to be scum. You also made the correct kill Night 1.

I'm not taking it that way. I do think you're a strong town player, but no one else was active enough to work with you. I was worried you and Val would figure it out in ELo until the Mason gambit happened.

TL;DR don’t fakeclaim if you don’t know what you’re doing.

I played terribly. I was very sure of my reads and thought people would see what was going on. It didn't help that I was tunneled from page 5 for a joke crumb.
