you did fucking fantastically
good game guys
I was hoping I was replacing into a scum slot because my dream is to win this setup as scum. Maybe next time, I guess.

---thoughts at the time of my last game related post were that there was no way I could out towntell you.... So so rach, myself, and panda getting shot would be autolose and you were unshootable... Hence the order had to be fuzzy>syriana>panda shot in exactly that order to win, and i wasnt here to push the second shot in time :/
Jump in and get your hands dirty. Mistakes are ok, apathy isnt.
I have played this game twice now I wanna say my scum budz were fun to play with... I really thought Ineffective would pull off the win for us since he was such a strong town read for most peeps...
RP you are just TOO good at this You definitely should be scumz next time
Sorry Nacho I felt guilty about you reading me as Town cause usually I am but not in this one lol
you have too much faith in me :p
The only way we would have had a good chance of winning is if jason didnt listen to me about jeremy and went straight to fuzzy, but i had been setting jeremy up as the "fall guy" for so long that i couldnt push on fuzzy till he was dead :/
My realistic hopes of winning this game died with ffer

I think it goes without saying that the town did very well this game. Many of you had super accurate reads. Many of you made your alignment really obvious. This was a hard town for the mafia to blend in with.
All things considered, I think the mafia did very well too. I think jeremylu got off to a bit of a rough start but he actually bounced back very well and made people hesitant to pull the trigger on him. fferyllt did a good job blending in and could have easily stayed alive much longer if things had gone differently. RachMarie did a very nice job blending in as well. Ineffective did a great job of manipulating the town and being read as town.
Near the end of the game, with all the solid townies and good hunting, finding reasonable paths to victory became harder and harder. Still, the mafia played well enough that until Ineffective went down, they were still very much in this.
I thought this was an exceptionally well modded game. Not a fan of the set-up, but I seem to be alone in this.
Well done, town!

I feel like the mafia need some sort of power besides picking the initial gunbearer (and a lot of use THAT power was with SodaSpirit disappearing immediately after confirming).

So far i have come up with severa ideas for mafia powers... I think the best idea i have come up with so far is :
after the first mafia has been shot, the remaining 3 get to pick one mafia player to carry a Dayvig armor piercing sniper rifle to be used via a mod pm one time so long as the chosen mafia lives until he decides to shoot
That way after ffer was shot, i could have decided to shoot nacho or panda--- both of whom were making the game incredibly difficult to win.

I was thinking of something similar, regarding the mafia power being a killing power that only activates after the first mafia member dies. I was thinking that the mafia could choose a player and if that player becomes the gun bearer, they die instead.
Ultimately, as dangerous as nacho and RedPanda may have been, the mafia should be insanely reluctant to kill anyone but confirmed town. Also, it makes the kills happen at a predictable time.
Whatever power role you give, it is sort of a shame to lose the staggering simplicity of the setup.
I pride myself in my scumgame above any other aspect of my game... I feel like i know how to manipulate around most situations---
If i had a choice at any point... Betweeen shooting a gunbearer, a. Towny that was "unlynchable", and a townyThat knew all of the mafia... I would choose to shoot the unlynchable towny. Im sure other people would pick different ways for different reasons, but in my view , shooting someone who is mod-confirmed cclear and knows too much is a "fear-tell" that gives off too much information, wheras shooting someone that will never be shot is performing a simple math game that will increase your odds of winning, and cannot easily be read into as anything else.
If anyone is fossed and shot and has the gun, you can already consider them a dead player IMO because people are easier to manipulate when their life is on the line if they shoot wrong, and even if they shoot right they will almost ceartainly die eventually///
However, the player that will never be shot--- he will add to the number of mafia that MUST stay alive for you to win. EG if rach or myself was ever shot i knew the game was over because nacho would never be shot--- making 2 clears when the game was in 3-player mode--- auto

I suppose the mafia doesn't actually give up information by not killing a gun bearer, since after killing a gun bearer they presumably have to pick a new one, giving the town a confirmed player anyway.
You definitely should be scumz next time
