Smuggler's Port [Game Over]

[Radical Rat]

Good game everyone, a pleasure to be a part of this one, even if the early game was very frustrating with all the PA nonsense.

I did figure out what Ico was trying to pull with the not revealing bit, but I still wanted a confirmation because I didn't think the gambit would have worked. And yet, it did, so that's my bad, and I apologize for being so bitter about it.


Titus was definitely scum MVP, but alas, that N1 inspection was #2good.

Or maybe master strategist? Idk which category it falls under better

Definitely worthy of some kind of nomination, that's for sure. Getting at least 2 scum in a pool of 4 players out of 15 is about a 15.4% chance - not impossible, but very difficult. Between that and head-faking the smugglers into thinking they were gambiting as the TD, it was a truly exceptional performance.

hey gg everyone! well played by all and I had a lot of fun Thank you for modding FakeGod, the set up was unique and interesting! I think town overall played a smart strategy though I do wonder if there's a way to tinker with the setup to avoid the 'follow the PA' strat, it seems pretty optimal despite putting a lot of pressure on the PA and taking towns reads/votes out of the equation at times.

I think a lot of people played great - Ico with the clutch n1 pool and the not confirming gambit, Umlaut hiding his identity (I was so scared of rolling TD myself), kuribo catching scum early and decisively, Titus had me fooled until D3, Menalque & Maxwell as always being fun to jam with and keeping town on track with the right plays. NK15 and Moment did a good job turning around a potentially messy D1 and while I'm not sure the fakeclaim was the greatest idea in the long run it did wind up causing some useful chaos that generated a lot of info and hid the TD ultimately. Moment - sorry about championing your execution on D3, I did overstate your resistance to being investigated, I had the right read on what Titus was doing but picked the wrong associative, my fault. Norway that's two games I've misread you now, my b :[ hopefully in the future I'll be more calibrated on how to read you right. Hel while we were at odds at points this game I do always enjoy your sense of humor!

sorry you rolled scum Datisi, we'll get that mutual town win... someday...

[GuiltyLion]

I still think this setup needs a method to kill an outed PA to ensure this works more like mafia. It was fun none the less.

yah this seems like a good idea

[GuiltyLion]

dank

I say we execute notscience and put Datisi as a solo inspect

I know that what we ultimately did instead with a new pool of three was smarter/better play in general and in the long run, but can you imagine if we had gone with this lmao, my head would have grown three sizes

[Hel]

Sorry about that, Hobbes lol. Point taken not to read you off activity.

I secretly knew Umlaut was the Tomboy Daughter all along; I was just

pretending

to scumread him all those times, fooled you all, didn't I.......

[Creature]

Hey just saw the setup and the way it played and gotta congratulate you for the design. I'd definitely be interested in playing the next Smuggler's Port.

[Iconeum]

Release my PA thread with no redactions

I apologize to anyone who I may have offended in there

[Iconeum]

Omg we did it guys

I literally see no reason for PA to ever confirm himself

[Iconeum]

I hope I didn't take away too much enjoyment but as you can ser

I had good reasons early game for being God king
Imagine coming into the game with the td in full wagon mode loo

[Alisae]

I’m surprised that wasn’t read into tbh

[Alisae]

I mean its not like I figured it out
/shrug

[Alisae]

Icon don’t mind the shit I was flinging at you
I just wanted to play a game where I was trying to figure out who was the TD and who was the PA based on what was happening and i wasn’t rly into what the game rly became

[Iconeum]

Ali you should Def read my pt lol

Its all good between us

It was frustrating but imo necessary

[Alisae]

i'll give it a read ig

[Iconeum]

Shoot Iconeum

I'll explain the logic of this guess later on. It's not 100% certain but it's the highest likelihood. Other top contenders were

NK15

and Username.

It worked

[Iconeum]

Umlaut was actually my early thought for TD although by endgame I really thought it might be a gambit by NK15. Very well played game by Iconeum.

I spent a give amount of time and effort in spewing NK as td
It was amazing werking how much effort NK spent in doing thé opposite

[Iconeum]

If im being smug about winning just let me
I have about one (1) good game per year so just let me have this""

[FakeGod]

Port Authority's Office is now open!

Is it really a fact that NK is actually and for everyone, meaning scum, spewed as definitely not the TD? Even with my reluctance to not investigate there?
As long as NK is town, I have a feeling this could be the winning play.

Ofcourse if everyone and their mothers truly believe NK is never TD here, the plan is as solid as wet cartonboard.

At this point I was thinking NK was a possible TD and it’s why I kept saying that I didn’t really think investigating there was necessary. I think you did a good job paining them as possible TD, but stating that outright would have made it incredibly obvious that I wasn’t TD myself!

[Menalque]

Then who does Titus thinks is the TD?

Or is this a 9000+ IQ play from Town!Titus by including 1 or 2 players it believes are TD, to throw a curveball at scum?

'omg dudes Titus thinks these aren't TD, that must be true'

imagine that lol

This is funny, because I had titus as town from bad VCA and this is what I thought she had to be doing as I couldn’t understand her play otherwise

[notscience]

Notscience, I did come to believe you didn't know I was username, but I had figured you out by then and I couldn't let mercy get in the way.

I genuinely felt both clueless and awful and totally figured I would die from it

[notscience]

No redactions idc it’s mostly just me bitching about being scum

[notscience]

I would very happily play with anyone here again and would actively encourage sign ups to this game from the rest of this PL
