Malcolm, sorry I didn't share my reads before I died - I really should have - and I probably would have if I had not allowed myself to get over gamed. I generally play one game at a time, but I managed to get up to 3 games simultaneously right before I died,and it was just too much for me to actually reread this game.

My final read of the game was that it was never Eyes, but I didn't know who it was between Malcolm and TTTT - but I was not confident in my take enough for me to leave it for posterity

I hope it wasn't too miserable for you
you were a delight to play with
there were times it looked like you were uncertain about what was going one
and this was a collection of some pretty decent players
stick around it gets better!

@TTTT: So you did check Shotbun on N1, right? And Val did pick his fake claim based on knowing there is a doctor in the game, correct?

Eyes never does that after seeing the soft.

I think that a Val+shotbun team, even if they have the idea of leaving me alive for that reason, kills one of tttt or Malcolm.

So I am definitely reconsidering there being scum inside tttt Malcolm during my re read
Looking back at what I was saying immediately before Val's claim, I kind of feel like a Val+Eyes team just... Doesn't fake claim.

Also, TTTT is being disingenuous here
I really thought that Malcolm was going to nail you for this. TTTT

No worries mate, could understand the logic even if I didn't necessarily agree. I was just in that uncertain position where my gut said TT but a lot of logic was starting to say Eyes, very tough one.

I really should have realized that I was dying 100% of the time vs playing for the chance that I was taken to Elo.

I feel like I learned a lot about the way you play the game, I hope to run into you again and read you correctly!

One of the differences playing in the newbie queue is that you run into people you have never seen, and have zero completed games so you can't even do a meta spot check.

Eyes
from the mafia PT:
feeling bad for Eyes here
it's not easy what he's going through
being town and being this close to losing at the end
it's a lot easier on the old emotions to lose here as scum
no matter the outcome... sorry Eyes
nothing personal

I was on the right tracks but never quite pinned it down.

I think what swayed me was a lot of my TT evidence felt circumstantial and at times disconnected. Whereas my Eyes evidence felt like it lined up better re the forced role reveal and later counter-claim.
