Mini 1492: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets GAME OVER

Lucky isn't a Malfoy.

Vote: Amrun

[Lucky2u]

Damn... I was hoping I'd be dead so I wouldn't have to make this decision...

Remind me why it's Amrun?

[Nachomamma8]

Because our slots are both pretty much confirmed town and Amrun's is not.

[Nachomamma8]

Scum power so far has been a pseudo strongman, a scum JOAT, and ???. It is likely that this power is not that strong, considering scum JOAT and psuedo-strongman are strong as fuck. I was confirmed by Jason's voyeur to be targetting penguin alien with an investigative role, and confirmed by Rach to be going nowhere N2 and targetting penguin alien N3. Thus, if I am scum, I need to be either a tracker or a rolecop, but that doesn't make sense because all of the scum power roles have likely been revealed.

[Lucky2u]

Well all Jason confirmed was that P_A was investigated, not necessarily by you but I see what you mean.

I want atleast one post by Amrun in case she has something I should know before I quick hammer.

[Lucky2u]

I'll add that I am impatiant and if she doesn't post by the end of the weekend, I'll hammer just because.

Vote -

During the Day, you must pretend to be aligned with the town. As such, you get a vote to try and lynch someone. Use it well.

You win when your faction outnumbers the Town, and nothing can prevent this from happening.

N4:

I've lost the rest of the stuff it's not too exciting though - Lucky2u reporters Amrun one Night, and Nacho cops fferyllt (lol).

Overall I didn't think this game went well, mainly due to the amount of replacements + apathy from players - D1 was a joke.

Pls stop trying to flavour break my games. It never works.

[Lucky2u]

Oh for the love of god...

[fferyllt]

Good work Nacho!

I am really surprised we won this game. Day 1, I thought it was going to be a town was going to have a romp.

[fferyllt]

Thanks for the game Nexus! The character choices were awesome, especially the Ford Anglia!

[F-16_Fighting_Falcon]

Thanks for modding Nexus. Regardless of the number of replacements, I had a lot of fun playing this game. I absolutely loved the quotes on top of the votecounts - it brought back nostalgia about my first time reading HP&COS. I think I was 12 at that time (same age as Harry). I thought it was excellently modded. I also had a lot of fun playing with this playerlist. It really made a nice change that nobody in the game was ever antagonistic toward anyone else. I guess it is a part of mafia to be antagonizing but this was a refreshing change. I'd definitely jump at the chance to play again with most of the players in this game.

Town and scum both played well. Scum in particular dominated the game with higher activity levels later on in the game where as the town's activity level went down which was the only thing I didn't like from the town's end. I made most of my comments in the dead thread but I felt that Nacho and ffery played amazingly later on in the game and when people ultimately figured out that they were scum, it was too late to do anything about it (I was dead, Amrun was locked into being in a 1v1 with Nacho which would have scared the hell out of me). It would have been so fun to be scum in this game and share the scum QT with either of you.

Why did scum decide to clear Penguin and go for Amrun as a mislynch? I thought they were both strong players but Amrun was more obvtown. I never saw that strategy in the scum QT.

Personally, I thought scum were within Nacho, ffery, and Penguin for most of the game starting with my reads list on Day 3. I never got around to reading Penguin as town until the very end of Day 3 when I saw her unvote on Toomai and jump at Nacho. That eliminated them from being scum together and that's when things started to make sense. Given more time, I think we could have turned the tide but deadline was looming and it was too late to try and connect. I really think I wasted too much time reading Nacho's games and re-reading my completed games with him where I should have spent time was reading Penguin's games, understanding her playstyle and then clearing her. I also think I need to tone down on posting meta-analysis in thread because none of the town were interested at all.

An interesting strategy I incorporated into my playstyle was doing "reachouts." I saw that Nacho often does it as town and thought it would be a cool way to connect with other townies. I don't think it worked as well as it should have because Jason as good as ignored me but I'll try it again. I also tried to incorporate ffery's trajectories into my scumhunting repertoire. My town case on MSG was basically an attempt at that. I also think killing CDB on N1 played into a scum win as well. He played incredibly well and I wish I had more time discussing reads with him.

[fferyllt]

F16, you and CDB both did a great job of organizing town and making life a lot more difficult for scum. On day 3, I really regretted lthat we hadn't killed you on N2, though potentially having you in the game as a tree stump would probably have sunk our chances completely.

PA was cleared by dint of Jason's investigation and my flip. It would have taken a huge error on the other town player's part for her to be lynched at lylo. And Amrun was less likely to have the time to sort Nacho.. Those were two factors that went into killing PA instead of Amrun. Rach's late tracker claim really threw a wrench into the works, as did Lucky's surprise final investigation. Those two events completely changed the scum gameplan.

[fferyllt]

I should say "all but cleared"

[F-16_Fighting_Falcon]

That makes a lot of sense. I am guessing you never intended to survive throughout the game and pre-arranged your death with your buddy (like Dumbledore).

[fferyllt]

Earlier in the game, we hoped for success in a 5-2 lylo, but by PoE I was already all but confirmed scum by day 5. With lucky's investigation on night 4 it went solid.

[Lucky2u]

Sadly that just put me in a LyLo situation that I don't think I can see myself NOT Voting Amrun...

[LnGrrrR]

Yeesh town. F16 and I figured out Ffery and nacho were scum like d4

Good game all!

[LnGrrrR]

Oh and I tried my best on D1 to shake CDB and Amrun off. I did everything I could apart from saying, "I AM A POWER ROLE" to no avail. Honestly, I find it best to back off a read like that and let them be "normal" for awhile and see if they make another scumslip, but everyone has different styles.

[RachMarie]

whoops it was the other way

N2 I followed Nacho and got nothing

N3 I followed Nacho and he went to PA but did not kill PA

uggh

I am so sorry peeps I should have realized that Nacho was scum But I was all hooked up on the fact he visited PA and did not kill PA

bah so fery did all the killin save for the last night

[RachMarie]

I was trying to hold off claiming til LYLO actually

I was going to track fery but realized I would probably die anyways sigh once I claimed, since other than JOAT, I was the strongest town PR.

It ain't easy being big fat and hairy with 8 legs
