I was freakishly convinced of Excal=scum=godfather as well. Unfortunately it came to me as he voted on me, making me look retaliatory.

I'd like to thank everyone for giving me a bit of mercy as a step in. A little frustrating, but I think I improved as a Mafia player significantly in this game, even including my last mistake of pontificating out loud on the existence of a doc.

And A HA! I called the existence of a scum investigation-blocker.

Good win, Town! Whooo!

EDIT: I can edit now, Mwahahaha.

I'd also have been CRUSHED if Strago had been Scum. Sly and PAL-18, together to the end!

It doesn't count if you make the call after he was lynched!

I do remember, but I was just amused when I suggested it and most people brushed it off.

And no worries about the lynch- Like I said that day, I was pretty much assuming Grandpa was imminent.

Aaaah, I see. I didn't read the description of the "Framer" role until just now. Yeah, good call. nice to know that I was right to be suspicious of ghosts, for that matter!

Just because I'm boggling at how wacky this game was.

Number of cop investigations against people who give incorrect cop results: Five: Two against Ghosts, three(!) against the Godfather.
Number of cops who investigated Tai on the same night that Tai killed them: Two.
Number of cops who did not investigate a Godfather or ghost: One. Out of five (counting Kilga).
Number of investigation results that would have been different for me if I had been paranoid: One.

Thank you.  I was totally bummed by the kill, but that line alone makes it OK.

QR thought i was scum?
what the,looks like this game was very investigation heavy

Actually, I had no clue who was scum so I sort of picked at random, crossed my fingers and hoped really hard you were scum.  Sorry :)  I figured I could talk my way out of a lynching, but there was nothing I could do about a NK so the scum needed to go first.

This makes me feel a little less bad at being detrimental to the team more often than not. :V

Sorry I almost dicked you, Strago.

No worries. I wasn't playing all that well either.

The funny thing was, QR was sitting here debating between Smodge and Excal for her night 1 kill. Ended up going with Smodge pretty much at random.

Okay, now that would have been hilarious.

Hey now, my read on Excal was right!  He didn't have an active role. >_>

Anyway, NOBBY being that important is just terribly wrong flavor-wise. :P

Yeah...  The funny thing about this game is that we were doing fairly well, the explosion of investigative roles and VSM's immunity to lynching notwithstanding.  And then both Tai and I got sick at roughly the same time, making us unable to effectively finish the game.  So, that was insane.

Also, Sopko...  I think he won the game for you guys.  Because I was actually going to use Captain Carrot, Beloved Princess as my roleclaim until Soppy came along and told you all that I was Duck Man.  Well, that, and his out of nowhere roleclaim just tossed everything sideways for no apparent reason.  Just when we were ready to train Fnorder to oblivion too.

Ah well, good game all around, and we'll need to see how things work next time.

Good game; one of the closest I've seen in a while.  I really thought we Dungeon Dimension types were going to pull it off right at the end.

The ONE time I did something different than I would have had I been a Townie was when I didn't hammer Nitori to save VSM, and that looms very large in retrospect.  I wonder, had I nailed Nitori, would I have been investigated that night?  In truth, though, it was for the best; I would have gone into MASSIVE lurker mode, to the point of probably having to ask for a replacement, about two days after my lynching.

Anyway, looking forward to the next time I have time for a game!

Honestly, I'd already sent in my investigation choice before I went to bed, as I didn't expect to be back before the     line to do anything that day, so that didn't really matter.  I just used it to try and get you killed without exposing myself. >_>

Well, I guess it helped my credibility that I'd just offed Nitori before accusing you, but you still would have been checked out.

Hmmm... I wonder how that whole exchange would have shaken out if I'd been the one with the scumhammering creds?  I suppose my claim of being the OTHER half of the rolecop equation would have been more likely to save me in that case?
