Border of Touhou and Mafia ~ Game Over!

[Plum]

In other news, once I decide someone's such obvious scum that I'll have to throttle you through the internet if you're not, that player

is

scum.

Yes. This, exactly. Note that such a player coming up town

does not change the fact that they were scum

.

If you maintain this attitude you, too, can become a berserk policy lyncher.

Mmmmmf. I notice I hadn't finished changing the second-person structure to third person as I'd intended.

While I appreciate where you're coming from, I'm talking about this from satisfactory results of scumhunting (which you probably would argue is what you're talking about as well, but we both know what I mean. Also what I'm talking about ends up with something radically not-policy-lynch-causing. A policy lynch is for all applicable games, usually with most games applicable to a general type of policy lynch. This is more a degree of surety in scumfinding which is very rare but also produces good results when it comes to lynching players who flip anti-Town).

Fun facts: At one point I was so busy and behind on this game and not feeling this game that (after I'd already told Vi that I was going to be able to play properly and stay in the game) I sent Vi a PM saying that I really couldn't do it, this was the first time I'd replace out of any game (without getting my sister to temp for me, which did happen once) and pride in that was all good and well but not at the expense of everyone's enjoyment of the game so please replace me &c. I had a change of heart before Vi opened it and I deleted it. And made a lovely long post that night and got into the game (the problem was all I was seeing was Spy + Xyl obvobvTown and not much more except Mufasa irritating me - and the reread did that some good, I can tell you).

Plum: What I

really

meant is that when you're dealing with uncertainty sometimes you make the right decision at the time and still get a bad result.

Fair enough.

When you're dealing with uncertainty sometimes you make the wrong decision at the time and still get a good result.

If I honestly followed this code to it's intended meaning, I would have Shot Xyl. Then again, considering my shot of Pesco failed and how the game turned out from then on, I don't think we would have suffered from Xyl's death.

Whether you get a good result or not shouldn't be left up to chance, but if it does turn up a good result, then that's good. Plum was just lucky enough to catch herself in a full out Xanatos Roulette (no matter who of Elmo or Sotty she shot, we caught Elmo.)

Shooting obvtown people is bad.

I did find you obvtown, too.

Zak - yar, the Xanatos worked out in my favor. Really, there were 8 alive. I wasn't going to shoot myself, so seven potential shots, three of which would end up killing a scumbag. And the only one of the seven I might've considered shooting who

wasn't

a shot that netted scum was Zwets

Game with many Inventors is a bit swingy, which I don't happen to mind. Swingy = luck is expected to happen. I got lucky enough that what was probably less than optimal play gave the Town a pretty good result.

GG all!

[Xylthixlm]

GG all!

You didn't do anything.

[Vi]

GG all!

You didn't do anything.

He survived a game with you in it. That's accomplishment enough.
