nope, never seen it before. Kinda powerful though.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Well it can confirm masons/neighbours or scum I guess, but so can a rolecop or a normal cop.

I've seen it before, but it's a mixed blessing since I could out neighbors and masons as well as scum. Didn;t figure there would be masons or neighbors since I was odd-night, and the fact a traitor existed, but you never knew. Arc's claim sealed her as town to me, but not sure if others knew what a a hacker is.

I've never heard of a hacker before, and I do agree on the modkill issue. And personally, I'd love to see her reasoning that you were "in the wrong" which I don't agree with.

But yeah, what happens happens and all in all the flavor was enjoyable as was the game and I wouldn't mind playing another like this. (The Storyteller was inspired and possibly my favorite role.)

In case anyone was wondering what the one I had slipped in meant, It was basically a hint that I was town. (Stanisvaslky is the Actor/Acting Coach/Playwright/Director that the theory behind Method Acting is attributed to. It is what I get my user name from as well.)
All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players.

@Nexus- Aside from the 15 words specified, were there any restrictions to what the Storyteller could write?

No, although if pushed, "XXX IS CONFIRMED TOWN" would probably have been forced to not be allowed.

I think the GNR lynch basically came down to town apathy. The game was so inactive, but a lynch HAD to happen and it was close to deadline. That was really the turning point that I needed to push other lynches.

My greatest strength in mafia is usually my charisma, and if I live to end-game as scum, it's usually my greatest weapon. In the scum QT, I am constantly going through scenarios as to the best course of action to take. As for the modkill of Viomi, I really don't think it would have changed anything at all. After her quote, Venmar voted Viomi. which put 2 town on the Viomi wagon. Fitz and I could have voted for various reasons in short order and ended the day.

The hardest thing for me was always choosing the right person to kill at night, I felt that choosing the wrong person would ultimately make the game un-winnable. I pushed for Dry-fit to die on Night 4 because I wanted to risk that sword would stump on Day 5 and take away the last mislynch we needed to get through. If he didn't stump, I was going to push him until he did or try to get him lynched. I think sword ultimately made the worst decision possible in that situation, and really, I was more surprised he didn't wait at least a couple days before doing it.

Nero pushing Monkey's lynch was to secure him not only to get him to extremely town looking, but to get us to shoot him and get him on our team

This. I figured that it was going to be a me or MM lynch that day.

Good job scum.

It became obvious to me (although I didn't say so in thread) in the second half of day 4 that one of Toog and d3x was scum, and I made the wrong choice. That was probably the critical mislynch in the game as well imo. It's a shame we couldn't win after such a strong start.

As you can see I can't get if they're town or scum aligned, so.


So she did. I completely missed that one because it wasn't done as a proper quote. Well then. Sorry to everyone else for missing that, it could've changed the course of the game if I'd modkilled her earlier.

I didn't investigate PeregineV, you never communicated that to me anyways, so.

The rule says "real or fabricated." You've directly quoted a fabricated PM, implying that it's from me. If you'd just paraphrased and said "I found out he was a *****" then that would've been fine.

The reason you are blacklisted is because you are incapable of following the rules, and as a result ruined the game. I will not take the risk of you ruining another game. This, coupled with the fact you show no remorse for your actions, means I know that any game I run in the future will be better off without you.

Ehh

I apologize to you players

for breaking that rule

and ending the game early and essentially ruining it

but it was fun

and I'm sorry I broke the rule, I've just been upset at my random deaths in game lately so I kind of asked for it anyways.

My apologies again.

I think this game actually swung a lot depending on who got killed first, as its as a Storyteller isn't that powerful where as a bodyguard would have swingy he game more.

Well played to scum though, they did an amazing job.

To be fair it is an All PR game, it was always going to be swingy.
