Newbie 2091 | Kinobot | Game over!

[CornPuffBuddha]

GG all. I played good in some parts, played bad in some parts. To quote a wise man, "overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer". I was very thrown off by frogs going MIA, being tunneled hard early, and to a lesser extent life getting in the way of a more consistent activity schedule, but I certainly would not have the gaul to say that loss was out of my hands. I had a ton of fun, but this format will probably take some more getting used to - there's alot more emphasis on actually thinking about the minutiae of the game and other players than the social deduction games I'm used to. Towards the end I pretty much lost hope of pulling out a win, though I never gave up trying.

Also I will never forget the pigeon saga.

Definitely a very different way of playing scum than I'm used to, and it caught me off guard. Whether this was a particularly bad showing for a first timer is for you to decide.

There's no doubt in my mind that I will play another game at some point though. Now I'm really interested to see what a forum game's like from the townie side of things!

Also Abd getting elimmed genuinely surprised me. I think if Progo hadn't replaced out we would have gotten a miselim.

I don't think you played poorly. I mean you had a tendency to disappear rather than answering questions toward the end, which made you feel a bit scummy. At the same time though, Progo used that same tactic to go from E-1 to zero votes. It works a lot of the time.

Pigeons were glorious.

How was my play over all then?

In terms of being able to read you as town, I was pretty confident in my read, so you must have done something right! You were voting for the right person on day 2, which is also a good thing!

I'd definitely not mind playing with any of the people in this game again.

Great point! Same! Though it's not going to happen in the near future, I hope to see some of you around the site if I come back in a few months!

Also what did you think guys of my play?

+1 on the fact that you did not give off any PR tells. Initially I think you came off a little strong, but as pointed out I think you adjusted quickly. You still seem to play more mechanically than the average player on this site - you had a scumread on my slot and Corn because we were not on the abd wagon. In this game it worked out great, but I think it's important to keep in mind that there are games where mafia will be on the other side of the WIFOM.

I thought it was a pretty good showing. You tried until (nearly) the very end. I think you were unlucky that >50% of town locked on you as their top scumread on day 2. It's difficult to talk yourself out of a situation like that.

Fair enough. That tendency was half me tending to just schedule my posts weirdly in general and half me losing interest in the game because it began to feel unwinnable.

Also @Adbla you tried your best, and were a good partner for the brief time I had you. Sorry that you subbed in between a rock and a hard place.

Mafia PT has been released

[goodmorning]

After reading the Scum PT I can say that I also had a PR read on Joho so it was absolutely not just you abd.

I am also very glad CPB chose to kill Daniel because otherwise the game might have gone very differently.

[CornPuffBuddha]

I really didn't expect the doc save on daniel. I thought it would have been on one of the locktowns. So big props to T02 there for that play.
