Sorry rad, I wanted to be fair to corwin.

Thanks all. Really well done to somnus too, for towning it up massively.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

I'm all good with Mafia thread

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Rad, you played D3 onwards really, really well.

You'll read some of my thoughts in Dead Thread, too.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Well played town. Unlucky Corwin, we were left in a pretty shitty position from D3 onwards

[Bellaphant]

Still think hard bussing bbt day three was the right idea for anyone! I spent too long wanting bbt not to be scum when my shitty vca was pretty damming. I don't think the night kills were as consequential as that for me.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

You'll see that NKs had absolutely nothing to do with their reads either - was unfortunate how that got flipped onto me.

I prob should have self hammered early D3 once Corwin had voted for me. Bella I joined this game to play with you mainly, was genuinely gutted when I got a red role PM

you can open my personal pt, thank you

[Vasex]

if i need to decide right now with a gun to my head, i would elim these three slots: CHEAPSIDE, bbt, corwin

[Somnus]

Geez, Bella. You couldn't hammer during more 'murican-friendly hours? How am I gonna get back to sleep now?

Well that was a Day 4...

GG, everyone. Easily the most frustrating game I've played in.

That was also the unlikeliest of townblocs ever on Day 3. Pretty amazing that the 3 of us somehow came together.

I said it in my last couple of mafia private threads, and just so no one thinks it was sour grapes when I said it then, but I think it's harder to win these as mafia than it is to win them as town. I had been referring to that as a NewD3 thing, but I really think it's just 9'ers in general. It's hard to stay hidden with only 9 players. I maintain that if both sides play equally, town is usually going to win. If town plays really well, mafia usually stands zero chance in these. We played well for like less than half of this game as a collective unit. However, overcoming 5:2 mountainous starting on Day 2 is pretty noteworthy.

Thank you for modding, HEM (and Nero too). I hope you're feeling better.

As mentioned in my private notes thread, bury them and set them on fire. Thanks!

HEM: If you're looking for someone to meme it up in the spec thread of your upcoming Divide and Fart game, I'm your guy. For references of what kind of disaster you can expect, see the dead thread for Newbie 2094. You've been warned.

Hi. My name is Vasex and I'm

an alcoholic

a town cop.

Yesterday in the beginning of the game (on first 2 pages) I found 1 solid town, 1 solid scum and 1 town lean...

Somnus - town

(it feels very much that at last he has got his townie role at last and he is full of newbie energy to fight against darkness)

Italiano - mafia

(i'm pretty sure he is scumclaiming in every post... very obvious mafia scum for me, basic behaviour, i even dont need to check him to know that; i will be searching for his partner, and maybe i even won't show him that i consider him so solid scum, to get more info from him)

Cheap

- i think more chances that he is town because of his first post (reminds me when i cannot wait for the start of the game, being townie, and start creating my first post before the game, making questions, watching only at the list of players with no info at all)

i'll try to survive the night

I have no words

Actually, I do. Even though you're kind of a pain in the ass, you've got a good mind for the game and I legit hope our paths cross again on this site under better circumstances.

[Somnus]

Ok, last thing. I'm not releasing my Private Thread, but here's a couple of gems from Day 1. Enjoy.

I might try and eat a bullet Night 1 just so that it isn’t a PR instead

Please tell me we’re not in column C (rhetorical).

The game so far:

“I see that Player A is currently running up and down the street, naked, flinging feces at his neighbors. I see this as town behavior. Scum would be a lot more cautious than this. Definitely WAY too scummy to be scum. I don’t trust Player B for pointing out this anti-town behavior.”

It’s gonna be one of THOSE games. Definitely gonna try and direct the Night 1 kill onto myself.

[over90]

here's a couple of gems

I bet real gems are here:

As mentioned in my private notes thread, bury them and set them on fire. Thanks!

[Bellaphant]

Gonna assume somnus' PT is just him shouting at me.

I think you've maybe got a point though about town sided: I don't remember it being quite like this when I first played newbies, or even when I first ic-ed, but it might be down to the PRS too - we used to have a fairly standard cop/doc/doctor/tracker(I think), and scum couldn't have day talk!!it may be the assumption that newbies aren't going to play the PRS very well, but in my recent newbie we played a perfect game down partly to our newbie pr, and this game we played without one. However, I also think that there's a lot of 'tone' in this game that sometimes newbies find hard to play with too.

Some of it is players though: I think corwin had different choices open to him.

[Corwinoid]

It wasn't. PT is fine with me also. Some not flattering things got said about some people at a few points.

Three things before I do anything else... it wasn't losing this game that drove me off, it was frustration with someone else entirely that just crushed my will to be present or put up a fight here. I owe Rad and Bella an apology for not having the energy to try harder on this, and then everyone wanting their pound of flesh today, and I just didn't have it. Sorry guys. You too BBT.

The second,

and most important

, is that I owe Vasex an apology. The way I came at you D1 was really similar to how I had ICs and SEs come at me in my game before this, and it drove me off the site for 5-6 years. It left a really dirty taste in my mouth. I hope you stick around and play more, and I hope this doesn't completely taint your opinion of the site.

Third... Rad: I was serious about the attitude problems and being condescending. That was coming from the player me, not scum me. Talking down to people in newbie games like "Mafia is hard" or telling Somnus "Maybe Mafia isn't the game for you" is really not okay, especially in Newbie games. I wasn't going to come at my defense with this as an angle, I think it's a serious issue. These games are to get people use to the forums and to welcome them into the site, not do things that might drive them off (see my second point). Please don't attack the person behind the game.

[Corwinoid]

If people want play reviews I'd be happy to do that, also.

BBT, I had a blast playing with you. I'm sorry for the other things, it was a cluster fuck. I'd like to talk about that later.

Bella, it was fun. I was looking forward to playing with you. For some reason I feel like you were in one of my previous games, but I never checked... enjoyed the entire time though.

[Corwinoid]

You'll see that NKs had absolutely nothing to do with their reads either - was unfortunate how that got flipped onto me.

I prob should have self hammered early D3 once Corwin had voted for me. Bella I joined this game to play with you mainly, was genuinely gutted when I got a red role PM

That's the critical point I screwed up. N2 kill was probably wrong too. **It happens, I learned a lot from this game.
