Hrmph. At least I'm "not easily guided" I guess... First abandoned game, that makes me kinda sad..

...I think my suspicions were pretty accurate throughout the game.

Rishi I was pretty sure of, Hero I wasn't, and Kier lurked too much to get a decent read on him. *shrug*

I had no read at all on Kieraen, but Gateway was a little suspicious to me. Rishi I was almost sure of. And Hero I had been suspicious of early, but was losing that suspicion more and more as the game went on.

I've never played as a jailer before. I thought it was easier to try to figure out who a likely night kill would be rather than which mafia member would be the one to do the kill, since when there are several scum the least likely to be suspected would normally be the one submitting it, which is why I didn't pick Rishi, since I doubt he would have been the one submitting. I don't know if this is the correct approach to the role though.

I thought my reasoning was valid, though obviously I was wrong about OozingGolfball... :P

I got a tad bit aggressive to take suspicion away from Hero and Kiernan (since you guys decided to go on a lurker hunt).

SOG - Shooting OGB without expressing suspicion beforehand was uncool. I would have said that as town too, though maybe not pushed the point as hard.

And SOG and Amished, you guys were way too aggressive. You made the game not fun to play, at least for me. So I think that's a big part of why the game got abandoned.

You did. And you were right. I'll never figure out how you managed to pick me out from among the others offering similar ideas at the same time.
It never seemed that you were trying very hard to convince others, though, so I doubt you'd have gotten me lynched.

I still have no problem with shooting OGB. They weren't around and was suspicious when they were.

There are all types of styles, and if you can't handle aggressive gameplay, I don't know what to say. If everyone is just laid back and doesn't press issues, it's as good as voting out of the RVS.

You can be aggressive while still remembering that you're playing a game with other real players.

In any case, you're probably not as bad as I remembered. The lurker hunting strikes a particular nerve with me. It shows a complete disregard for the alignment of the other players and trying to impose a particular style on everyone else.

I wasn't lurker hunting. I was hunting people who contradicted their stated intentions in the game. It just so happened two of you were lurkers, but that was never the cornerstone of my case, nor was it something that all lurkers possess nor something that is limited only to lurkers.

Just out of curiousity:
Was there any significance to the townie enabler role?

I was wondering that too... but didn't want to bring it up in thread. When I sent my night action in I asked if that affected me and all I got as response was that my selection went through.

Well, I can't blame you too much, because I was scum. What worries me is if we're in a game where we're both town and you play the same way... since my playstyle is similar as town (though I still make slips as scum - I have so few games as scum that it's not a role that I'm comfortable with just yet).

Just popping by- I goofed on the name of the "enabler".

I believe the correct name as used elsewhere is "Motivator". Certain roles would have a 1-shot power turned on when they were targeted by the "enabler".

Out of curiosity... could we get spoilers to know what those might have been?
