Town was too paranoid, I wish I started this from the beginning as town. I would've tore into anyone who voted for neither Day 1. Mechanics really is key and speculation on the pros and cons are probably what puts me ahead when it comes to that bit

You probably would have been lynched D1 for it too.

Nah, I think if anything scum would've had to night kill me. I'm pretty good with surviving day lynches, especially early game. Always someone scummier.

Very conflicted about the whole thing.
@Nahdia
- I think it was great. You are probably ok with tweaking your wonders too, since none of them seem overpowering, yet they were still useful.
I'll have to check on how you did priority, but gaining it for non-builds seemed to have worked.
If you don't have reasons for someone being town, then they are probably not, even though they were in that other game.

I get it. Play some mini themes and some normals for a while. Don't lose your love of the game.

Check Dead spoiled or Mod thread. Both have a full list of what the future eras and arts funded wonders would've been!

theyre in the mod thread under each of the individual eras, but I'll gather them all here:
Spoiler: Temple of Artemis
You have built the Temple of Artemis!
"It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men's hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of the air, that emanation from the old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit."
–Robert Louis Stevenson
Once per day, you may cast a special vote with a weight of 3. This ability will not function in MYLO/LYLO, and you are unable to lynch a player no one else is voting.
(This may be done by bolding the world "Triple" before your vote or by voting thrice in a single post.)
Spoiler: The Colosseum
You have built the Colosseum!
"While the Colosseum stands, Rome shall stand; when the Colosseum falls, Rome shall fall; when Rome falls, the world shall fall."
–Saint Bede
Each night, you may target a player and increase or decrease their personal lynch threshold by one for the following day. This ability does not function in LYLO.
Spoiler: Notre Dame
You have built Notre Dame!
"Architecture has recorded the great ideas of the human race. Not only every religious symbol, but every human thought has its page in that vast book."
–Victor Hugo
Once per game, during the night, you may learn the number of non-town players present on the previous day's lynch wagon.
Spoiler: Sistine Chapel
You have built the Sistine Chapel!
"I live and love in God's peculiar light."
–Michelangelo Buonarroti
Thrice per game, you may target a player during the lynch phase to lock their vote in place for the remainder of the day. Votes cannot be locked on "Not Voting".
Spoiler: Louvre
You have built the Louvre!
"Every genuine work of art has as much reason for being as the earth and the sun."
–Ralph Waldo Emerson
Each night, you may target a player to make them voteless for the following day. This will not function in LYLO situations.
Spoiler: Eiffel Tower
You have built the Eiffel Tower!
We live only to discover beauty, all else is a form of waiting"
–Kahlil Gibran
Once per game, you may target a player during the day to make them lynch-immune. This may be done in the twilight phase.
Spoiler: Sydney Opera House
You have built the Sydney Opera House!
"Those who lose dreaming are lost."
–Australian Aboriginal saying
The first time you are lynched, the entire day will be reset, the day will be reset from the beginning of the lynch phase, with a new 14 day deadline.
Spoiler: Internet
You have built the Internet!
"The Internet is the first thing that humanity has built that humanity doesn't understand, the largest experiment in anarchy that we have ever had."
–Eric Schmidt
If you are lynched, you may choose one player on your lynch wagon to die with you. The twilight phase will continue until you have made this choice.

You're welcome. If I had somehow gotten through to Math, we might have won this but after Spiffeh left, I kinda lost motivation.

Any tips for improvement?
You were in the game for too short a time, so not sure I could give any advice, but not sure why you claimed Stonehenge after getting it. Seems like it would be one of those things that is best not revealed so it's use can't be manipulated.

I'm pretty sure in the last 3 pages alone you've seen three scum say they couldn't keep up with the game.
And a lot of the scumteam replaced out.
So, I disagree that there was any kind of intent to take advantage of the spammy nature.
And I think our style of play would have been different in a slower paced game.
Yeah I mean
Yes but no? While I was in this game I certainly wanted to let town be noisy, but that was also the downfall of my slot and other scum mates were calling for killing noisy players so we could control the conversation better and be more engaged ourselves

Next post was meant to clarify something along those lines. It made it easier to blend in and not have to deal with pressure, but it was also just a generally frustrating experience to not even be able to pretend to be reading things properly.
