What a game... I had so much fun watching this. Scum off to a great start, then they crumbled within just a few passes, and then DEEPwolf Noraa riding it out as pretty much the no.1 UTR until the final stages. I hope you're okay with having dayvig and chem class memes following you in your other games now, Noraa. that was hilarious.
This is the longest large game since a 40 player one from over a year ago. Fantastic playerlist, thank you everyone for playing!

Yeah. I am never going to finish reading this. I read somewhere that reading from forums are actually a huge time sink, but shorter games should be fine. This game, however, is about to hit a 5 digit post number.
Noraa, it really doesn't matter that we lost this game. I had my fun before dying from receiving a scroll.

4th time is the charm surely. Just locktown each other and no one will expect you to be partnered based on meta.

+1
Definitely, the best game I think I’ve ever played, this was truly a masterpiece. And the playerlist was dope, particularly MUSH, Noraa, Pooky, Murderkitty, Owno, Shelley, Bell, Fidget, Hopkirk, Tayl0r - who I can thank for not getting scrolled D1 while I was V/LA. <3

I absolutely /loved/ this game.
Bar none, some of the strongest performances I've seen from town or scum ever in here, and Noraa's positively unbelievably deep pocketing of Pooky and the absolute /struggle/ everyone else had wrenching their brain around to Noraa scum despite /not/ being deeply pocketed -- that performance is easily topping that list.
Top of the list for town, I want to make sure it's on the record that Bell was an undeniable MVP. Bell's the one whose eleventh hour effortposting was phenomenal and would have been gamechanging in, I'd hazard, literally /any/ other Mafia game that was running this close. Bell's the one who got my head on track for Day 2 leading into the rolling red flip mid-game we had going, and I kept watching Bell's reads for my next pushes to keep those slots coming up red. I wanted Bell and UNOwen in the end game, because I felt like they together would be 100% guaranteed to hit the deepwolf -- Bell had the innate sense for scum-stink and UNOwen had the innate sense for non-stinky scum, between them they were damn near an unstoppable force (too bad about UNOwen, though...).
Bell and Noraa, the Death Curse MVPs. Outside of and on top of alignment wins, these two deserve to feel like winners individually. This was great stuff, my favorite game ever easily.

This game might have been more fun to watch the later stages of than play, it was very stressful
But yes I'm very happy to have been a part of it. I have some critiques of my own play but I guess it was just barely enough in the end.

Noraa dayvigging Bell was the most epic thing I’ve ever experienced in any game ever.

Check what I had to say in the spec/dead-thread about my performance being worth literally anything. Spoiler: like 60% of that credit, MINIMUM, belongs to Bell, UNOwen, Gloria.

I just got finished reading through Bell's end game posts more deeply than I had done during the game. He's MVP, no question.

Well we all deserve some blame for trusting Noraa even as far as we could throw her

gg all
Thanks for modding Hectic, it was a fantastic game and definitely my favourite of games I've been in. Playerlist was great and the scroll mechanic made for a very tense final stage. The dayvig use was wonderful.
Glad we got the win in the end but Noraa deserves a lot of credit for turning things around after a bad start, she played extremely well and almost managed to win against what was a pretty strong town IMO. Could not have helped having scum three replace outs either.

this noraa gif was what went thru my head when I saw her do that while Bell was trying to explain to her why he wasn't actually doing blah blah
