Exactly, which is why he
should
have killed them. It's not the mod's place to choose which roles to keep alive for balance sakes, because then that leaves players guessing "Well, did mod leave them alive because they're town power roles, or because they're Mafia?" which is
not
what Mafia is about.

I'm a Doc, I protected LML N0.
ZOMG, we were so on the same wavelength.


Even though I was getting a lot of excitiment from this game, I will not continue it, I feel it has shifted too far from the actual spirit of the game.

I vote that New C9 goes back to the open queue so that people can play it again if they want.
I'd agree with this.
this.

I feel that a completely fresh game with a new setup and new players is exactly what this game needs, since, to be perfectly frank, I get the impression that there aren't many people who actually
care
about this game.

me, in a PM to thesp wrote: Go to open 50 in the New York forum. I took it over as a favor, but there were a bunch of inactives. I tried a mass modkill, but I fucked it up. Badly. The players who liked it want it to go back on the queue.

My greatest apologies for messing up. I can assure you it won't happen again.

Khel, I think its fair to say the game was fucked before you arrived. Thanks for attempting to save it, you did pretty well.

Let's try this again.

If the role claims are true, I find that hilarious that most of my suspicions were focused on a cop and a doc.

I posted this in the queue. "/in for the reboot of Open 50 or /in for next, depending what comes first. I'd prefer to stick with the restart, but if it's just going to be completely new players I'd take a new game too. Thanks, Thesp"

I had fun with you guys, no matter how frustrating this thing turned into.

Few short things:

1) Khel, thanks for trying. You couldn't save it, but you didn't cause the initial problems either, so we'll all just move on.

2) Is it too late to get some theory discussion going here? Something very, VERY interesting happened to me in this game.

Sammich, if you're still around, I'd love a reply. What tipped you off? Why did you think mentioning it was a good idea? If you haven't guessed, he's absolutely correct. I was a doctor; I protected no one N0 due to being an idiot and forgetting I had the night action.

Did anyone else pick up on this, before he mentioned it? Did you agree with him after it? Looking to see if I can learn something from this or if it was mostly just dumb luck. ;)

On another note, I'm a bit surprised we had 2 cops and 2 doctors and 1 vig. Wow. Probably no masons.

CKD was the vig.

I didn't twig that you were teh doc, but being a cop, I didn't bother to look.

Shteven,

Damn! You were a doc?

Well yay me, then. I was the vi.

Are you sure you weren't a scummy doc?

Hold on. I'll reread the thread and make a case.

Khel, dude.

My apologies for yelling at you. It's just really horrible to see you've been modkilled for no good reason, when you've replaced into a game and made a lot of effort to catch up. Then I didn't like it when it seemed to me like you were blaming other people, or indeed me. Everyone fucks up, it's cool.

Sammich is absent, and was scum- I have to assume he was rolefishing. Not to say that he didn't get a doc vibe off of you.

Yeah, I apologise as well Khel, I really shouldn't have said some of the things I did in my PM.

I was also scum, and since Sammich was absent and my final scumbuddy, that's why I was so supportive of the abandonment, I'd have had next to no chance on my own, against a town with a confirmed townie.

God, I was screwed.

I'm interested to know to who the SK was, he seemed to be the only bad guy with a slight chance of winning.

The Mafia weren't screwed, but they had a difficult battle had we continued.

Yeah Jordan as mafia or sk, even if I kept second guessing myself. Jordan you played pretty well, but the screaming divided mass that was the townies just weren't going to lynch Oman. You may have gotten us to turn on Shteven, but I think Justin wasn't going to allow that to happen. If Fonz was gonna try anything of that nature, I was gonna question him. The Mafia were actually much more active than I thought, Jordan included. Question- did the mafia make a concerted effort against me or was I doing a pretty good job of that myself. I really only remember fielding questions from Jordan... and our power roles.

I can't believe LML was town. Such "misguided behavaior," I guess. If I had to guess who was the serial killer, I'd say Tyler. If he was one of the MIA's I really don't have a clue. Tyler seemed to be an equal opertunity offender. Mind you I suspected 2 of our power roles as mafia, so my judgement isn't exactly perfect.

Justin, if you ever play a game as a mafia and act as well as you did, I feel for the townies. You're just too good.

Wow. I was right? On day 1? Sammich really was scum? That never happens. Never!

The funny part is, I was probably only so hung up over because he was right. If he called me vig I may have let him get away with it!
