Alpha was screwed over by Omega, not by the set-up. And I believe Alpha said earlier that he believed that it was a 3/2/1 balance. Ask manho though, he'll be able to clear it up. (EDIT: Fastposted)

Iota's ability I felt was countered by him being lovers with his victim. None of the standard scum used there abilities though.

I don't think the set-up was inherently bad in any way, it was the unfortunate modkilling which skewed the game.

i believe in a 3/2 balance from the start of the game.

and i said i'm a "godfather" as i'm investigate-immune. isn't a godfather investigate-immune and kill-immune?

about the set-up, i think my team would be too powerful if not the mod-kill.

most godfathers i've seen are just investigation immune, not kill immune.

Max, you'll want to edit the title to show the game is over.

Hey I was Kappa V2. I didn't really know that I would die with Iota. There was some flavor I got in the PMs from Max but when I asked if anything had changed about my role, I got a non-answer.

W/e, we lynched scum but lost in the end. If we lynched Upsilon we might have had a chance, but Iota was so obvscum for the lie about sleep abilities.

Was delta, not much more to say.

Game just seemed to kill everyone but the lurky/VI players in the first couple cycles.

No idea how Iota and Alpha lived past day three.

well, aside from Lambda, they were all good lynches (I had a town read on Mu, but he was so useless he deserved it).

also with the "alpha to omega" thing - I thought about that, but didn't think player names would be a good reason to consider someone scum. Iota is also mentioned in that same biblical sentence, i believe.

there is no way i'll kill upsilon for the town.

i can't win if upsilon is the last scum, so i have to take the chance at gamma being scum so the win. after all, a town win or a standard mafia win is a lose to me.

If I had known about the "Lovers" thing in my (Iota) role, I certianly would have used it on alpha instead of kappa, who I was pretty confident was town. I figured I would die the next day anyway. I'm just glad I didn't use it earlier just for funsies.

I also figured I was up against another 3-person team.

true, but the other scum had to be thinking the same thing. They chose to kill you instead of Gamma. And they won ;)

I knew that Upsilon was scum. But oh. No one ever listens to the friendly neighborhood shape-shifting serial killer.

I was Rho, as max's link showed.


I had fun, thought it was interesting using alts that no one knew about, and couldn't use meta, though I admit it was difficult to keep up with the game sometimes for some i am sure.

Wasn't a fan of the guy that claimed a power role and got me lynched, only to find out he had lied to save himself, though I do understand why he did it.

Yeah problem was that his claim was that even if it was true, he is highly apt to go along with scum. Think of it this way, he assumes 3 scum alive out of 15, he converts, gets lynched, and then its 3 scum alive out of 13. He gives scum a free lynch (of himself) with no ties, and they get another NK of their pick

"You got Rho killed," me.

You could say I wasn't a fan of the mafia killing me so soon since I was trying to help bring activity to the thread. I guess it picked back up -- I checked back a few days after that point.

Wish I was in longer to see some of the fun roles play out. Looks like a nice set of roles, Max. Interesting concept on using alphabet alts.

Here was ours. Though you can see it didnt' have much action, and none since mid-february. Upsilon was MIA for awhile, and I wasn't really paying any attention until day three or so.
