I'll talk to you OOG after this game is over if you want if you're town. Don't ever mistake winrate for playskill.

I stand by both of those statements 100%. You did not play well.

I believe he should not be allowed to play mafia if he plays like this. It's not playing the game.

Bulge played like garbage and you let him win. Unbefuckinglievable.

Bulge was town

obviously I fucked up pretty embarrassingly with the outworld push, but I don't think I did anything super wrong in the last few phases. I'd accept it if you think not targeting the IC last night was a misplay but I stand by my decision for the reasons I gave. no hard feelings on my end, I hope you feel the same.

Also now I realize why schadd and panzer fucking hate traitor

Yes when I made this post I did not yet realize what had happened wrt the traitor.

as frustrating as this game was I enjoyed myself. if i were the final miselim I'd probably be more salty rn but that's me.

Honestly I think the reviewers massively underrated the potential to fuck up the game the scumteam had.

I think not protecting the IC is really horrifyingly bad play. I understand your logic for doing what you did but I think you got too fancy and out-thought yourself. Obviously no hard feelings, its a game and we thought we were on different sides while we were screaming at each other.

From the scum PT:

checker and neo can both find us

theres an IC and a JK

and we only have 2 scum essentially lol

I wanted to address at least the first thing in this post: As I was putting this setup together, I originally just had an unmodified Jailkeeper. In that version there would be an obvious, direct benefit to the Ascetic modifier, because it means you can't be jailed. I then made the Jailkeeper Loyal because, since he can't actually jail Mafia to stop them from killing, it seemed unfair and unfun for him to he could do so.

So, in spirit, the Ascetic modifier was the reason you couldn't be jailed, and the Loyalty modifier was just informing the Jailkeeper of that. I do appreciate how odd that combination must have looked to you from within the game, though.

Wait what happened n3 exactly? Did the scum actually no kill or does loyal not work the way I thought it does?

Bullet proof traitor

Ah. :/ That seems really strong.

I'm glad you feel the same as I had every faith you would. and yea getting too fancy and out-thinking myself happens a lot when i role TPR, plus I was full blown paranoia mode after the quick no elim and thought for sure i was about to be set up for the winning miselim.

It's worse than a goon

If it's any consolation to those of you who were upset with his play, N_M will not be in any of the games I run going forward.

this is super interesting design theory

it would have been interesting if you had protected outworldER though, since I had pretty much confirmed in my mind that you were town by the setup so we would have gone into the day with an IC and me thinking the scum team was gamma/pooky/the worst. We would have had to deal with the false clear on kasu though so we probably would have still lost.

it just felt weird that the game had 2 investigative roles that could "semi-find" us and the town only had to kill 2 scum to win.

On top of that the town had an IC that had 0 chance of being elim'd and a protective role that could keep the IC alive.

Our ascetic modifier didn't really do anything except make us findable to the checker?

no you wouldn't have needed to deal with Kasu at all - the setup said the mafia lost if the 2 ascetics died.

I know I expressed frustration with you in PMs for not replacing him earlier but I understand the decision you made. You and we shouldn't be put in that situation in the first place though, it's not your fault at all.

In the future I would recommend adding something in your rules to preempt people playing like this in the future. My rule set says the following:

"I will be especially harsh on players who are prod dodging. I will count posts with little or no game contact, or a pattern of posts with little or no game content as a prod dodge and will replace you out of my game. I expect activity and I expect everyone to be playing. See rule 1 about replacing out if you are not having fun or do not have the time to play."

and I think its a good rule to have just in case you need to deal with something like this.
