I think this is close to auto
2/6 confed 1 scum left isn't auto, but it's damn hard for scum to win. (Mentor and Mentee lynched, conftown nk'd. If mentee is a conftown we're even worse off.)

More than a little annoyed by the fake guilty. That's bad play, regardless of how it turned out. Unless you were cheating gobbs, you risked the entire game on your ego. Maybe think that this is actually a team game and people aren't puppets next time.

Titus got screwed by cult townsiding. It happens, there's not much to say there. She probably should have left cult on the table? I mean, I guess she could maybe have won by lynching mentee and having cult take the IC's out of confstatus, but it would have been a gauntlet either way.

Drew probably shouldn't have claimed, period. Mentor wants to coast under the radar. Targeting a lurker was also a bad call, especially with conftown in play. chkflip was a decent kill, tbh.

Town wasn't OP. It just seemed that way because of the fakeclaim. Mafia had a decent chance. As always, cult was the most likely to win in a vacuum.

All in all, it was a fairly balanced cult game.

You were fine. Setup was balanced. Players can ruin even perfect games. :P

I assumed the JOAT was a lie, the role was a N1 IC cop and the role was balanced to join the cult on D2. Which is bad design, but :shrug: Don't try to take away player agency as a mod, it just makes the game unfun.

There's a reason I just checked out of the thread after my gamesolve post, though.

I'm not accusing you, nor do I think you cheated. I think you just have a big ego and wanted your lynch or the highway, which stifles thread progression and readability.

I'm saying that that is the only circumstance where I think you have any right to be that sure about your read, and so the action is universally gauche.

The comparison is made for shock value to maybe convince you to be more considerate in the future. imo, the topic is closed, I won't hold it against you as a person, but I definitely won't trust you or your results in the future.

ftr, if I thought there was a serious chance you had cheated, I wouldn't have mentioned anything and would have just sent a message to the mods. If anything, I'm fairly certain you aren't a cheater, because you strike me as the kind of person with enough pride in your own skill to refuse to stoop to that, based on our interactions. You do peacock, but you don't seem to do so maliciously.

And in doing so, removed any chance of analyzing his wagon for bussing, tainted setup spec, and took away the agency of the other players.

In my eyes, what you did was tantamount to saying "Your reads don't matter, because I am better than you".

You have a right to say that, I suppose, but I also have a right to not enjoy it and to find it distasteful as a strategy. Does it mean I'm not going to play with you in the future? No. Does it mean I'm going to use it as the basis for a grudge? No. I have plenty of friends IRL and on ms who do the same thing. I will be cautious in the future because I have evidence to say you're not trustworthy with your claims as town.

What I'm doing here is laying my cards on the table, telling you why I don't like what you did, and treating you like an adult.

If anything, I hope to get to know you better, because I do like the energy you've brought to your entrance to the site. We haven't really interacted much outside of this and the title thread, but you seem to genuinely want to be part of the community and a positive influence on it, which is something ms really needs.

:thumbsup:

I'm the weirdo who hangs out in the setup design threads and builds hypothetical strats for weird roles. Not a lot of people are prepared to be thrust into cult mentorships because not a lot of people spend significant amounts of time considering that as possible.

It was a nice change to not be trying to mislynch you, you're a particularly stubborn slot to frame. :P

Eh, your read on us was understandable. Partner got really deathtunnely in a scummy way.

Speaking of, partner, I'm down to hydra again sometime if you want. We made a pretty good pair. ;)

Hydra partner. I didn't think I'd have time to play the game on my own. We named the hydra after deciding on the game though.

I'm not going to out them unless they want to be outed though.
