I'm not "usually like that" at all. The way I play this game knows no such thing as "usual".

Ran, as your girlfriend this slightly concerns me...only slightly though because what can I say, Robert Downey Jr. is kinda hot
I'd take Downey over Snape anyday. I'm concerned you'd most likely prefer the latter. Creepy.

I definitely think I read him too harshly looking back on it, but his response to the EBR wagon and to the inactives really threw me off. I've played with Gheb before, although not where he was town actually so I should have factored that and the fact that he was a replacement in more to my read as well.
That's Gheb for ya. Maybe what you would expect from Gheb is actually ScumGheb?

Sometimes he may be right but I wouldn't understand why.

When did I say I would prefer Snape o_O no thank you lol, like I said Robert Downey Jr. is kinda hot. Christian Bale would be my choice but Robert Downey Jr. is a good compromise.

No, I just read Gheb wrong this game; I didn't consider everything about the situation and his situation as a replacement, and how that affected his play.

Can't breathe, but the view is equal to the taste
Overall I was disappointed with this game. Of all the ways I saw this setup playing out, this wasn't one of them, but that speaks more to my expectations than to the play. What was disappointing moreso was the overall lack of participation, and the general malaise that permeated most of people's play this game.

I believe I've said quite a bit in the commentary track about most players and I talked about the setup at length, but feel free to ask me specifically. Shoutouts go to Sworddancer and Circus, two early players who did fantastically until they died. July and at some points Swiss and Sang did good jobs of keeping the thread moving, so thanks for that.

Actually, I have a question Nabe. Was I one of the players that was blacklisted but just PM'ed because you needed players?

I should make a specific comment to July, your play was strong and consistent. For the most part, you made what I thought were good night action decisions. I made specific comments in the commentary track.

@Gova, no, that literally refers to just Soup. In general though, do try to play more. =/ You can be a headache sometimes when you're not engaged in a game, because you forgo all effort and sit and do nothing. When you're actively playing you're a good player.

Gova was blacklisted?

Also I appreciate the comment Nabe, but considering I was an indy, I really didn't do so hot. I played the game almost entirely from a townie stand point, and almost never from the self-preservation standpoint of a non BP indy.

@Nabe, thank you, and it was no problem staying active this game (except for a little bit of time where I didn't have my computer ><) because it was a lot of fun and a really interesting set-up.

Also, it is terrifying how close we were to lynching Gova before he claimed, his claim and help pushing Tandora the next Day were huge, as were his insights into the game at that point (his points raised in the post where he claimed are the main reason I decided to jail Tandora, actually).

Well, to be fair. I also became more active one I found out my role since the game became more interesting.

Deadline was too short for me. That's the only gripe I had. I honestly missed deadlines and I would have voted for ppl like EBR etc.

@Swords, Gova: Understandable, I'm just glad it all worked out either way.

Also, I loved my costume too Nabe!! I'm a Classical Studies major so when I saw I was Thetis from Clash of the Titans it made really happy :D

I think I played alright, first game I got night killed for not being cleared or a PR.

Still I kinda want opinions on my play overall since I wanna improve it still.

I was so pissed off the night I died. Ask J. I had figured out that Moth was scum and I had wanted to push him to get people to believe me, I had suspicion on Vult. The only person I didn't have was Tanny and that's just because I was still suspicious of X1. I had talked it all out and I had planned all of what I was going to do that day. And then I wake up to see my own death. I was bitter. But I'm still happy that town won.

My first few guesses suck and, when I finally got it, I was so doubtful it was going to be correct. It was just from the first like post ever and it took me Days to figure it out.

This game was just fun to play overall and it was an awesome theme. The yakuza was something that I had never encountered before so it was really good experience... especially with me being the mason of the traitor. I was so sad because Moth rarely ever posted in the QT and, the night I had died, I even went back and noticed that his reads had changed. Too little too late *shrugg*

I had felt like chewing Gheb out about the way he handled July's pressure and how he lashed out at everyone, effectively ruining any chance of him being save, but the point is kind of moot.

Did I mention how literally every time I saw "HP mafia" I thought "Harry Potter" before remembering halloween party? I was even going to say something about that in skype, randomly one day.

i had no idea that was the true theme at the time :urg:

I've just seen the third movie so many times that when I went out to look for clues (after asking Nabe so many flipping questions), I saw a line that I recognized but couldn't place where I got it from. I was watching to movie randomly and just made a little happy dance.

@Ran. Thing is, I was masoned, so I should have been able to count on him to be the only confirmed town to me. Turned out that was false.

Actually, I would like to know how Shadow Moth felt about being yakked and whether or not he liked the change of alignment.

haha just skimmed the dead people QT, since it's so long. Nabe was really into this game, which is both good and dangerous for a mod haha. Causes a lot of stress :p

Nobody had faith in me in there until the end, but most of the attention was still on July even then :p I can't blame them, replacing into a game really sucks and I still haven't even read most of D1/D2, and I skimmed various parts of the game that I was actually in. People should realize the difference between lazy and scummy though :c

Nabe just wanna thank ya for this set-up, even if you didn't enjoy it for what played out, I did a lot when I was alive and playing. Heck watching it and commenting on it was just as fun.
