Anyway...

First and foremost I want to apologize for all the mod errors. Some of them were Manatee's fault (most notably, ssbm was sent the wrong role PM, and it was only because she died N1 that this did not completely wreck the game), but several of them were mine as well.

I think the lesson here is definitely, if you're going to co-design and co-mod a game, make sure you have very good notes. Manatee did the role PM's and she made them look very pretty but also it was very hard to read through them to double-check actions and there were a couple times where I should have and didn't.

Yeah but the whole game was so bloodthirsty at that point that I don't really blame them I'm sure someone else would have

I just think it’s comical they were the game losing miselim after silencing the one person who could have made the game much easier

There’s a part of me that’s bitter but I’m kinda trying to be positive in my own way

Now, now, no post game grumbling.
Everyone is competent enough to recognize their own mistakes and misplays this game.

Or at least most of those mistakes.

Good game everyone.

Sorry Notty. I have a feeling if it was just you, town would’ve won. In Elo since you were doing a much better job arguing for scum pooky. :(

Thanks for modding S_S, manatee. I had fun.
There were delays but I didn’t mind them.

I couldn't get past the fact that Point vigged scum in the end
I think had that not been a factor I would have been swayed

For what it's worth, Manatee originally had Solrock/Lunatone as town, but I convinced her that it would be fine to have one as scum because they still need the approval of a townie to make a shot so they can't blatantly scumside with it. We ended up randomizing whether the hood would be T/T or T/S (and balancing around that, obviously) so that outguessing the mod was not possible.

Also, I quite liked Pooky's role :P He was incentivized to get Cakez to carry out the shared vig so he could save his ninja shots (which he did not do and then he got guiltied so lol).

I fucked up and forgot you were a co-mod on this game SS
I would have totally discounted the point about not having a scum vig in the game

I did fuck up with wisdom. But the game had MULTIPLE misplays from multiple people.

Anyone else in that MELO doesn’t last as long as we did.

There was no way to convince cakez this game milo and the ignored mech case is proof of it

Everyone is telling me this mech case is so strong but I don't understand why it was only brought up at literally like three days before the final deadline of the game when it occurred much earlier

Because putting the pieces together of the perish song kill + roleblock + claimed protective actions didnt become apparent without retrospect ????
