This is pretty much where I stood during LyLo. I will admit that the survivor comment put me a little more on edge than it should have, but I couldn't put any scum motivation to it and then decided I was just being stupid. Then you posted the Empking vote which was pretty much my exact mindset at the time and I felt great.In post 1193, VP Baltar wrote:Nah, I think both Nacho and I were feeling exactly the same there. It was one of those things where I felt like it was Emp, but that also seemed convenient and I didn't want to get fooled like that so close to victory if Nacho really was scum.
This game in general was awesome. Thank you for the game, Sotty!"Playing with Nacho is like playing with a religious conservative." ~UncertainKitten

What was the justification for the NK choices, anyway, particularly the one on Jason?In post 1203, chkflip wrote:Scum made silly NK choices, but DDD made the right shot.- Debonair Danny DiPietro

I made no shots, I wouldn't have killed you, you were super obvious town just derping things up. That was leviathan who shot you.In post 1203, chkflip wrote:Scum made silly NK choices, but DDD made the right shot.- chkflip

The chkflip shot might have been OK. I feel like he may have been too much of a wildcard late in the game.
@Iec -- Looking at the scumQT makes it seem like the Jason kill was who they thought they could get away with safely. I don't know if that was necessarily true, but that seemed to be the rational.YOUR AD HERE- Iecerint

Yeah, I'm really rusty, that's true. At least I was able to convince you I was town one way or another, even if it was just because I was a bit of a blunderer! I'm kind of pleased with how accurate my gut reads were in this game, but it was hard to put my finger on exactly where they were coming from. I knew HD was scum, and I strongly suspected that PV and HD were bussing each other at one point. Because I wasn't as convinced of PV, I wanted to lynch HD first and then reconsider him, which made some people accuse me of "deflecting" from PV to HD, but I was just so damn convinced that HD was scum...meh.
I was never certain about Empking, but I didn't want him to be able to finish the game coasting like that, so I'd like to think I would have pushed for his lynch. So I think as far as my reads went, I was pretty solid on this game. My overall play kind of sucked, though. I was kind of trying to lay low a bit, and come off perhaps just scummy enough to not get NKed early, but not sufficiently scummy to get lynched in the beginning, either. I thought my abilities would be better saved for later in the game, so survival was my top priority. I wanted to get my reads out there, but I didn't want to seem too pro-town about it. That way if I claimed and my claim was believed, or if I got NKed, the town could look back and perhaps consider my cases more seriously. Obviously my larger plan didn't work out, because I got snatched out of the game prematurely. I tried to put a little hint in my replacing-out post that I was town, in a context that would seem more sincere than the average post. Perhaps that was a little sneaky of me, since the situation I was dealing with was in fact very serious--but I was still playing the game, even if only for one last post. You guys were right in guessing that I wouldn't have lied in that situation, though. That would have been too creepy.
Anyway, I had a good time while I was playing, and I popped in every once in a while to see how things were going. Great game, everybody."Time forks endlessly toward innumerable futures. In one of them I am your enemy." —Jorge Luis BorgesCopyright © MafiaScum. All rights reserved.
