Right after day 1 of the large theme ended, Nacho asked me in our PT what I thought of my first team mafia experience. I want to quote it here.

there's a lot of agony of defeat going on, but I feel strongly that most of the players in this series put their hearts and souls into their games and their teams, and it showed in the level of play. I would rather play a hard fought, well played, confusing, frustrating game and lose than win a game full of phoning it, inattention, and dumb mistakes.-

I'm actually kind of salty because as a macho town role with a revealed PM, I felt that my best way to play to my wincon was to act as theatrically dumb and mislynchable as possible with 80+ people watching intently
which was a really shitty position to be put in
this whole team mafia experience was just sort of draining and embarrassing for me-

your play made a lot more sense after you claimed. mechanically your role was kinda like beloved princess, which is my least favorite role EVER in a mafia game.-

Yeah. I never felt like anything really clicked.
I think site culture now versus site culture in 2011 makes this a taxing experience. Back then, the site culture wasn't as spam posty, it wasn't as hostile, and it was more friendly/communal. It made Team Mafia actuallyfun, even if it was taxing. Now, trying to keep up with that many games, with that many teams/players, with the site meta being "angry, bitchy, spamposting"... it just wasn't fun. I think it's also gotten a bit too unwieldy for its own good... six games, but you only play in four, but there's a token system for bidding, but blah blah blah. I know it was done to accommodate more players and make it "unmeta-able"... but accommodating more players isn't necessarily a good thing, and I think the "would someone who's a bad scum player take a scum role?" aspect of it makes the cross-games meta pretty interesting. It's a mechanic that makes Team Mafia unique.green shirt thursdays-

This. I have no qualms with how I played. I lost my individual game but I didn't see much in the way of hateful posts. This did teach me a fair amount because of watching several games at once.ShowThe scum had the misfortune of Titus being absurdly accurate on day one.Really quite impressed by that.~Drixx
You're letting Titus win the game by herself.Good luck now I guess.You have no chance to win.~Tywin

funny story, our team actually almost got replaced cos we didn't submit the game selection form on time. zoraster posted a warning message in the PT saying we had exactly one hour to submit or we'd be replaced. i was at a school library working on a team project with someone and checking MS on my phone and i blatantly ditched it so i could get to a computer to submit the form. i have no regrets
our team PT likely won't be released. a lot of it is either me/mastin taking about stuff that was entirely unrelated to our games or me imploding over my game.-

soz. but honestly, the last 5 pages of our team PT is literally just me being upset over my game after it reached D5 and mastin trying to cheer me up. i doubt anyone would be interested in seeing that. ._. i do feel the need to show this off, though:
In post 72, pieguyn wrote:@mastin: be very careful about writing Tammy off as town. nothing she's done has been unequivocally town yet
DV is probably scum
Titus might be scum *again*. Dan might be scum, but he might just be excited. I will wait for content from both of them before providing a definitive judgment there.
In post 95, pieguyn wrote:@mastin: I think this is Marquis' scum game on ISO. which sucks bc I'm now reading everyone I should be able to read as scum. -.- I'm obviously going wrong somewhere and am too exhausted to find where.

Thanks to Thesp who added it to the FTP, I have added the icon to 3 out of 4 members of Young and Beautiful. T-Bone unfortunately is a bit harder as I need to combine his image and his scummy into one file and get thesp to add it. Anyone who wants to do that for me will expedite the process, or I'll do it in a bit..-
