Once tow got ahead in the game, by getting lucky with pooky targeting angela, it felt really really hard for scum to catch up.

I never understood why you refused to send your message. It would have confirmed you as a Mailman, and you could have tried to convince town that you're a Town Mailman, which is the usual alignment for the Mailman role. Although, in this setup, the Friendly Neighbor was the counterbalance, nowhere does it say that town cannot have both a FN and a Mailman. In fact, I'd bet that someone will include both of these roles as town like KittyTacky said in the Dead Thread.

A few lessons I've learnt:

The rule on alts felt great and revolutionary to me when designing the setup, but, in practice, it backfired and caused problems for me while modding. I will not reuse it in my next game. I might revisit it in the future, but I promise that I will ensure that no one is taken with it by surprise.

The second prod rule was meant to be a moment for players to stop and think whether they have the time to commit to the game. In practice, it caused a problem when I learnt that not all players read their PMs. So next game this will be discontinued too, and replaced with a simple three strike out.

I wanted to frame someone as an RB, which had been legitimately accepted, again, without the bomb.

I’m not upset in anyway. I had fun

I think this site needs to limit alts…

But that’s way above my pay grade

I think this is one of my better games.

Well played Town. Good job all. Scum caught some bad breaks (and an ungated Cop always feels too strong to me), but I had most of the Team nailed down D1 (as did others), and overall I think we played pretty well.

and if a moderator is reading this for whom this isn't above their pay grade, allowing us to change our names would alleviate this issue at least with regards to me

sorry again not mafia

I generally don't like playing as scum and was pretty demotivated that Scorp and STD were outted pretty early. The thought occurred to me that maybe I should have replaced out given that "not having fun" is an acceptable reason but I think replacing out is rude.

Game felt a little lopsided with so much town power but they also played well and deserved the win.
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.

It's dependent on meta of course but I was just highly skeptical both roles were town. It didn't feel right to me at all.
