I made the case on why she should be but you were too blinded with your hopes you probably didn't read or didn't comprehend it.

I basically said 9 Town started the game, 7 flipped. I am one so one Town left in the other 4. NK claimed Benign 3P and you claimed WW. It was either Meg or Guillo, and I hard SR'd Guillo for his omflated ego on the final day.

In fact, this was the ONLY read I had to change at that point. believe it or not, I had EIGHT SRs on D1. SIX flipped Scum (of course, those included the already outed Specter). ONLY GUILLO was Scum in my Town pile, and ONLY MEG was Town in my Scum pile. Even NK15 (whom I did have in the Scum pile) turned out to be 3P. One of my BEST games reads-wise EVER
I thought you were ignorant town who let go of my elim and saw how I was saying two dark creatures had to exist lmao.

I was bad. I never claim scum there if I thought I had a chance in hell.

This is true.

I am pretty good at escaping elims as scum though.

It is made a lot easier when your victim can’t talk.

I was thinking three dark creatures so kidnapping you had to happen.

Ironically enough I thought remove also meant remove from NAR as well.

Ok. Timing with the results and mechanics delivery is of essence for games like this.

If I had gotten the paranoid gun shooter invention in time, I would have tried to play dumb around Flea's Wisdom result, play like I never Understood what they were trying to tell me and push Critter. Then give the invention to Wisdom for him to activate (although I think it'd still be too late for him to activate by the time he could).

But with Wisdom silenced for a second time and no invention and Wisdom getting pushed I had to try to look townie and town me, puts 2 and 2 together after Flea's flip and chops Wisdom, no questions asked. Not doing so puts me in the spotlight for people that knows how I play.

I also believe that the town numbers should not be disclosed in the OP and I still hold that Town should have true majority not minimum majority.

Specter shouldn't have been flipped, it is a challenging faction to be in in anonymity, it is extra hard when it is revealed to the public upon game start, sleep paralysis was created that way because Specter flip was supposed to be secret until someone with dead interaction actions would kill them.

The self lie detect is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen in a bastard game lol.

Anyway, how did Meg know all those actions if they were just a Monk?

2) If scum can do it, so can town, except TMI.
3) The best way to tell the truth in a game of lies is by lying and the best way to lie in a games of lies is by telling the truth.

Also, I don't think this site is for me. I've been trying to adapt but the length of these games put psychological pressure on scum factions as town by default come in with a lot of time to reconsider their reads, the only way I can see myself winning as scum for the first time is by slanking, by giving town as less info as possible and that is something my hyperactive ass cannot do.

Plus, when I joined this site my vision was to host games here (two-week long day phases = Hosting Paradise) and play Blitz games here or at other sites, but I couldn't even fill a 13 player one and I'm not interested in running normal open set ups. So, I've concluded that this site is not a fit for my playstyle and hosting is also out of the picture plus I got a feeling not many people enjoy playing with me anyway so, yah, this is my last game here! But I leave you a legacy of 147 unique roles and factions in the DoAR to play with. ;)

Cheers

If you are talking about the kills my partner killed Selynee, and toog was claiming roleblocked the night before they died, which would happen if it was a DC kill (it also lines up with the kill happening right after Toog claimed to have a guilty)

POE meant ww kill was last.

Yeah this game was a hot mess.

I was late on passive abilities that needed randing, the mod error on N4 happened, I had to mash, the lie detector was secretly an oracle (that is my role and I will edit it, but it won't change actual power), and the setup was inherently unbalanced.

but yeah Specter should have been flipped judging by the alignment as written (nothing says to redact the flip, the flip will not be redacted and besides Specters are the only way to die at start of pregame)

I'd also be okay with patching Lie Detector to "knowable" lies, so that what NK15 lie detected comes out as "inconclusive" i.e. the post was working off info that wasn't known.

yeah but the setup doesn't have a Town majority in cards so that is what I'm apologizing for

just yeah... if I run a grand-alike again it would likely just be good old Grand Idea (and I'd try to run the passives that need my intervention each time as part of resolution)
