    Okay so first thing, I actually came here to play with Frosty (he invited me) but I barely had the chance to. That was one thing.

    Another was the format of this forum. I'm used to playing in mafiascum where posts are easier to read, pages are longer and I can easily ISO individual people. So basically I had really hard time following through the game because of that and it was seriously interfering with my scumhunting.

    Another was the bastard nature of the game. Up until now I've been playing open and semi-open setups where I generally know what to expect and can logically figure things out. But this game had like no rules. I couldn't trust *any* information and I just felt like I was in uncharted waters. Now that I've discovered I'm not comfortable with this type of game so I don't think I'll be playing any more of them in future.

    Finally, the mounting pressure of feeling useless, feeling guilty for being useless and knowing that I looked scummy because of that made me say and do some questionable stuff that I didn't think over, which made me look even scummier. I got frustrated and pretty much gave up. I shouldn't have done that, but I did. I couldn't get involved in the game, I didn't like the bastard element, and most of the reason why I was here to begin with died on Night 1. Yes, I did play horribly and I deserve the blame for it. But please at least understand where I was coming from. I promise I'm not this bad in general.

    Oh and... I'm sorry for being such a nuissance and annoying so many of you. I totally understand if you're pissed at me and never want to play with me again. JSYK I love you guys and I think you were way more mature/civil about it than I probably deserved. Peace ♥

    Looks like I was right about bob. Damn good fakeclaiming there, bob, you totally fooled me. Sidenote: I really have a problem with that. I trust people's claims and defence more than I trust my own reasoning. I should definitely work on that.

    Anyway, good game and the setup was very interesting, just not my kind of thing. Sorry I didn't get to play with you much, Frosty. :(

    Well played Bob, you held your own against my relentless tunnel. You are becoming one of the best scum-players. To manipulate town against town is a skill.

    Steve was pretty shafted - I've never seen the mod give away one of the scum before (but you were ridiculously OP tbf)

    Minideathstar's scum-associative case on Bob's ISO was impressive too - couldn't understand why she dropped it though. Sorry for pushing you hard x

    I'm not sure you could have done anything different. Really you needed to convince a cop to investigte you early on the 'prove' you weren't scum, but being killed so early prevented that.

    Wouldn't be so hard on yourself.
    You're iso on me was exact, it actually swung the pressure onto me and probably turned the game.
    You also got the final reason to kill.
    Never easy coming into a new forum, especially one that's playing a bastard game, hope you stick around.

    The fact there wasn't a cop in the game made that impossible, so there actually wasn't a single thing you could if done to survive other than argue the mod was lying but that was never happening. You were overpowered but doomed from the get go.

    Yes, the best thing to do is plant as much WIFOM as possible and distance yourself from your scum-partner.

    The game could have been alot different if SH had used his two shots on two townies too.

    Great work @Guyett - that is one of the best flavoured games we've played on here.

    ...and judging by the activity, bastard is the way to go ;)


    Is it time for a Greatest Mafia game...?

    Thanks @Guyett that was a great game. The most active for ages!

    Wp Shane and Joga, I'm glad my main town reads for once were actually town :laugh:.

    Had bob and Steve pegged day 1 tbf, bob fooled me a little but he was done for with the game set as it was.

    :laugh: felt good that's for sure, amazed I wasn't the day 1 night kill. Ironically on day 1 I fake shot frosty (3rd party), shot and pushed the lynch on Steve and said bob was my second biggest scum read :laugh:.

    Have to say Joga had my heart in my mouth a few times when you nearly died, was worried at one point you'd played me hard and were the final mafioso :laugh:.

    I usually die night one or two over on this forum

    I hope you stick around, put your name down for the next game if Guyett is running the greatest idea.
