Like all of my other games, I didn't really keep up with what was happening, so I don't actually have much to say shout out wise. I might read this game latter to give advice, but I'm a pretty lazy guy so I honestly doubt it.
Here's what I do have though:
Vinyl.: Vinyl Vinyl Vinyl, what am I going to do with you? You're Day play was alright, as J pointed out, but just from skimming I still think that you need improvment in that aspect. You did a good job just skating by, however, I think that's all that you really did until you pushed Loli near the endgame. The type of play that you exhibited this game might allow you to live early on in a game with more experienced players, but it's bound to bite you near endgame. Still, overall a good performance for a newbie, but don't expect to live long in a more experienced game playing like you did here.
Now, of course your main fault was your Night actions. Vinyl, I know that you've already been told this, but you should have killed the claimed cop. He was your biggest threat this game. As long as he was around, there was always a change of you being caught. Also, even if he didn't catch you in the Night, he would of still cleared others of not being you, neither of which is good.
You REALLY needed to kill the cop Night 5. Even if BarDulL was town, then after a cop investigation of someone who wasn't BarDulL, you would of been caught. Literally the only way your plan could of worked is if you ORI investigated BarDulL Night 5.
Vinyl., it's awkward to say this, especially since we kinda know each other IRL. However, my earnest advice to you is that you need to work on gaining some basic logic skills. I mean no offense by this, as I sense no bad intentions from you, but still, if you're going to improve as a mafia player, you're going to need to gain some common sense first.
Rake: I was impressed by your play this game. You have a fearless scum game, which is a great trait to have that will always help you out as scum. TBH, I thought that you and Zen/BarDulL had this game in the bag, but there was no way you could of predicted Vinyl's kills, which was unfortunate. Good job helping to get Kary lynched, he was definitely yellow scum's biggest threat this game, and he needed to go for you guys to live.
My advice to you has to do with your town play. Yes, even though you were "scum" this game, you still also had to play a town game since you were looking for the red scum as well.
My advice to you is to always look for intention over outcome. Several of your reads were incorrect this game (don't fret this, most newbies as well as experienced players have the same issue, and learning how to reliability "read" people is arguably the hardest part of mafia). I feel like the reason for this was because you only looked into things shallowly. Even if someone does something that that seems "bad," truly question yourself about it. Is it really scummy? Does this player's actions make sense given the context of the current situation? Ect.
This is actually very tired and true advice that I would give to all who play mafia.
Also Rake, one more thing, your claim during Day 2 was indeed scummy, so don't do that again. =p You had no reason to claim at the time, and it really did look like you were simply trying duck out of pressure from Kary.
Kary: I'm also very impressed with you this game. You're reads were near spot on, which is something that a lot of people can't brag about. Not only did you have solid reads, but you actively pursued them, which is the second main part of scumhunting.
It's a shame that you were lynched so earlier, as you were easily town's strongest player.
I don't really know what advice to give you. I don't really think that you should of been lynched, as I found that the way Zen lynched you was only with generic accusations. There's nothing wrong with being aggressive. Your town play was good, and if you played this way as scum as others have said then your scum play is also probably good. Honestly, I think that you're ready to move up to the next level, so if I just HAD to give advice to you, it would be to start playing with more experienced players.
Clover: Good. I can already tell from watching your play this game that you're capable of being very logical. You weren't only just logical, but IIRC then your reads weren't half-bad either. Not only was your logic sound, but you also appeared very obvious townie to me, so tbh I don't know why others were really suspicious of you.
However, if logic is your strength, then your level of commitment is your weakness. Several times this game I saw you state suspicion against others, only to NOT follow up your suspicion with your vote. As a townie, your vote is your most powerful weapon. It allows to apply pressure to scum picks, as well as show your fellow town mates who you believe they should be voting. My advice to you would be for you to not be afraid to really get your vote, and yourself, out their pursuing your scumpicks.
JTB: Thanks for replacing in! Good catch on Zen. Shame that you didn't really make much of an impact on the game. I wish that you did. Oh well.
J: As usual, good play. Sorry that you were scum but hey, at least you had another another scum fraction to go against. Good job leading the lynch on Badwolf Day 1 and looking super mega townie when you actually weren't.
This might sound weird, but my only problem with your play this game was that you were TOO townie. Like, but playing the way you did Day 1, you made yourself a very easy target for the Night kill, which disadvantaged your fraction. Oh well. Until next time.
Zen: Thanks for replacing in!
Man, I have no idea how you get away with some of the stuff that you do, lol. The wagon on Kary, the whole "lets no lynch and direct red scum thing," ect. But you still managed so there must be some method to your madness. Good job getting Kary lynched, and good job in general carrying yellow scum as far as they got.
BarDulL: Thanks for replacing in! You didn't leaving an impact on the game but obviously you couldn't of. So good job doing what you did in the very limited amount of time that you had.
Overrall, I think that I have to agree with Kary here:
To be honest, I don't think town deserved this win. Red scum shooting yellow basically gifted the game to town, and yellow scum led town by the nose through most Days. I enjoy setups with two mafia factions but I wonder whether you can actually balance them.
I really think this was yellow scum's game, they just got extremely unlucky with Vinyl's shooting.
I'm either going to give MVP to Rake or no one, I haven't decided yet.
Had town legit won, Kary would be receiving the MVP from me.
