I believe you Holy! ;_; But I was dead... *cries* Why?!?!?! WHYMEEEEEE....

Ok... why else?

O.o you knew about that?

Ok... why else?

SEE NO REASON AT ALL!

You dying was actually a mod mistake

You didn't really think you'd get out of this without my commenting, did you?

I think the big change to this setup (and I should have made this explicit when creating it in the first place, so I blame myself) would be to make it the same as Jack of All Trades on reveals -- alignment reveal ONLY on death, roles remain secret. Otherwise, it just gets a bit too easy to try to game the setup with role resurrections. (Also, I think that change might prevent some of the weird massclaiming play in the future -- I suspect some players claimed expecting that they could just have their role passed on to someone else.) I actually expected while reading the game that it was being run that way in terms of reveals, which left me rather baffled at some of the proposals to break the setup (particularly Phate's, which I don't think works at all if you have no mod confirmation of role).

Otherwise, I think it was an interesting game, and was quite well-played by MBF. Any comments on setup improvements? I think the mafia group getting smoked was more a fluke than a setup issue, but I'd be interested in hearing if there's a concern over balance here.

Oh, and great job modding by bird1111. This type of game requires some serious skills to make work (role switchers are a modding nightmare), so serious props on running it so smoothly.

I definitly think the mafia getting smoked was a fluke. Mikeburnfire correctly figured out what roles all the mafia had by the end of Day 2, and I think that was probably why they went down so fast.

[kabenon007]

Exactly. Curses! But good game all around by everyone. *Hugs Korlash* I had a lot of fun playing with all of you.

[Korlash]

WOOHOO i feel better now...

XD So sad..., lol!

Ah~ thank you for believing me... <3

I've had fun here~~~
*waving good bye to all*

[Thanatos]

They had a positive investigation from me, and had inadvertently made it so that Mike could guess who the other two were, which in turn made him quite trust worthy. Very lucky on his part, unlucky on theirs.

I think the Role-Switcher being lynched Day 2 made things easier for me.

[Skruffs]

I tried to get the mafia to kill MBF on their last night, too. I remember MBF got all ruffled by it, asking why he would die over (say) the cop.
Oh well.
