Yeah, that did bother me. I kept going back and forth in my mind about you. So if I read him as scummy, then he's not? Vice versa? But I'm paranoid, though.
you just didn't know the level of the "you just don't know it yet" and how far it went.

Yeah, i have other games in play rn, but I gotta call it for a day or so after this one

I prepared this earlier but the thread kept moving without me:

That was incredibly close, yes. I can't say I don't feel a great deal of satisfaction for holding the line for that long, but I really really wish I had pushed harder with that line. It's actually what sold you as scum to me when I was considering Zurel as a candidate. You seemed to have an answer for everything, Flavor and I almost gave up at one point. I knew I was getting too defensive toward the end and I wish it had occurred to me to bring that back up. Welp, at least I'll know for next time. I also really appreciate the help you gave throughout the game and I look forward to actually being the bad guy in future.

In any regard, I'm glad to have made some new friends. Keep an eye out for a message in future.

Welp, I am going to get a rest and take my meds. Probably not going to join any game for a while and just read past and current games.

Outside of Newbie queue, it's a zoo, Hank. Everyone calling each other's reads shit. Not for my current health.

I liked the laser eyes.

I had no intention of ever trying to case Zurel this day phase. I knew it was coming down to a 1v1 between us since Bire died.

I think it was one of my only paths to victory this game, at least the cleanest way that didn't have things like Salsa voting out of nowhere.

Gladly would play again.

Yeah, it's a zoo. I would have been more aggressive playwise, push harder, come up with more cases if this wasn't here, specifically because that's what would get me town read. Here, the passive play worked really well, and I kind of liked it? I might try to use that more. Hmm.

Thanks for the game, everyone.

Don't know what to say actually... it's clear that I learned nothing from my previous game, was dumb then, and am still dumb now (maybe more!!) :cry: :facepalm: Thank you, everyone, for keeping patience with my nonsense, don't know how many games I have to play to put at least one good argument :cry: :oops:

Thank you for hosting Sirius9121, also tank you to all :) Hope to see you guys again :D enjoyed this game a lot :)

I have no idea how town didn't get that, that was remarkably easy.

Oh yeah, I've been meaning to ask this for a few games now, what happened to the 'IC' role? Is there some story behind why that went?

GG Town!

I definitely did not deserve to win that. Well done Flavor, thanks for completely carrying and bailing me out :)

Kind of upset at myself for how that played out. In retrospect I'm pretty sure the wagon on me was janky enough that I could have talked my way out of it. I should know better than to try to play mafia quickly and not think things through properly.

I'm fine with mafia PT being released.

I knew this day wasn't going to be easy, and Hank put up an amazing fight.

Dude, you should have kept pushing that Freudian slip line.

Like, I'm not sure if it actually was, but for the life of me, I couldn't figure out how to respond to it. I don't think I did there, but it definitely looks like it, and I think that could have won the game for you if you kept that thread. I tried to brush it away like nothing.
You felt very self-conscious at the point in D1. Like, you brought up that you always rolled Town in newbies in 3 or 4 different posts in a span of 2 pages. I think that's the only place where I really ever felt like you had slipped at all.

Flavour was so obviously scum.
And why was Trendall ever eliminated? That push on him was bad lol. Most obvtown slot in the game next to Zurel.

Yeah, I definitely play in a way where I want people outside of the game to see me as obvious scum, that’s my own little game.

Doesn’t matter if you know I’m scum in game either, you gotta get me faded.
