A uPick of Ice & Fire - Day 12 - #REKT?

[Faraday]

Oh! uPick choices. Hold on.

Instead of formating with bbcode: http://www.quicktopic.com/50/H/wYPE3Rm8W9n here they are, afaik that's all correct.

Thanks to all my replacements in particular! It was a long game for most of you to replace in. Very glad Magua didn't read before replacing in, might have had to look elsewhere!

[Faraday]

Uh, I am not gonna retypoe out the roles <_< Sorry. I'll explain if anything is unclear though!

Some of the dead qt were spoiled when posting later on, no one really pinned down the whole scum team - although AGar blocked scum every night except 1, I think? (He blocked titus killing, blocked alfred, blocked cephrir one night) - pity he was never allowed to out his result.

[Faraday]

Oh, I can say this now since he was no longer around - Peacebringer replacing out because he wasn't "feeling the site" or whatever pissed me off, since it was pretty clear he was just replacing out of scum games across the site.

Good Game Faraday. Hard to balance things with this much action/interactions things get real swingy... but we made the statistics for large normals so c'est la vie..

Yeah, it's a pain in the ass - I tried to avoid too much swing by limiting abilities, maybe too much in some cases? But it's better than something like 5 kills a night.

Gonna be taking a break from modding for a little bit, I think. Since I feel a bit burned out after this. Wire Season 2 will happen eventually, I think. I have the setup mostly done, just need to do the boring parts like writing the pms in full. Maybe I'll just mod a mcro or something in a month, but I'm glad to be mafia free for a while.

Thanks quadz! And thanks to my reviewers who mostly just ad to deal with me pm'ong them a lot going OH I HAVE AN IDEA FOR X

on a happier note, I really liked the setup, Faraday. It was well done, which is rough to do in a big upick like this one. ^5s all round.

Yeah, your pick was also very easy to come up with stuff for - you were originally gonna be a CPR doc type role (the whole "drowning") but it was easier to make other people killers and give you something to do with the kingsmoot.

pedit: I think the miller made sense with the hound's ability. It's a silly role in general, but I'm not completely adverse to using it. It's mostly silly I think because it doesn';t have the effect of "weakening cop", like the orginal intention so it becomes a named townie...who may or may not be believed, which is basically no better or worse than an early vt claim.

I have a big write up on this game to do eventually but I do not have time now: I believe the theme for now will be "apologizing to Magua and complimenting Cephrir". I note all of the scum in this game were nailed for decent reasons somewhere in thread (then buried by me). The biggest flaw in my town game is my complete lack of reorienting when my initial burst into the game is completely wrong, and the scumteam was smart to take advantage of that.

I have the same problem sometimes, and by trying to correct it, it can lead to less "bite" in your play sometimes which isn't the desired effect. You certainly efforted hard here, and did turn your reads around at lylo - I think a benmage WAKE UP call to you earlier like the way he played lylo might have helped, Cephrir played very impressively, though.

I also think you underestimated empire's scum game because you were scum with him in marketplace, and probably slightly biased to his posts looking more weak than they were - I agree they were stronger here, just I think hydraing with him as scum over there hindered it, as you had lower expectations than you might have had.

I roleblocked two scum, only one got lynched and that was without my information soooo that's a thing.

Three Cephrir, the night you died.
