That's why he was killed.

In future games I think it would be cool if the doctor and nurse and sheriff and deputy could talk to each other in PMs

The quick vote seemed to be common throughout the game. You cant get a beat on someone if the majority of the game is night time.

I was kind of suprised he made it that long. When did you start discussing him as a potential kill?

I agree, especially in a game with two families. I think the goons had a big advantage over the regulars once one team got a little bit of an edge. We could gain some favor in voting for bad guys, but the village really can't say for certain if it's a good guy voting off mafia or another mafia family voting someone off. Hard to gain trust.

We could only kill on odd nights. We ended up finding a lot of roles through investigation so that took up a lot of our kills. The crayz one came down to him or corvi.

yeah and like I was the nurse.. But pretty much was just a regular villager. I didn't get to do anything since the doc stayed alive. It would put an interesting turn on things.. ESP since malkamaniac was killed his deputy could have divulged info (I think maybe?)

The funniest part was, I didn't even think about that. It had nothing to do with the sdm vote, and if I had been thinking about it, I would have left you alone. I decided that since you've been a mod, you were just too smart to stay around.

What I didnt like as the JOAT was that I had three different powers but I couldn't use them like I had intended. I used my investigate 1st and found a Good Guy, so I had no idea how to use my Kill. I would have rather had the opportunity to use the same power more than once, but the JOAT could only use his powers 3 times.

Yes I knew that now that I should have waited. I just didnt want to die with powers un-used. I never used my protect.

Had I had the chance to investigate twice and kill or investigate 3 times, it would have maybe leveled the playing field for the Goods.

:face:

Thats your own fault. You cant prematurely JOATulate like that. You shouldnt be investigating until you are fairly sure. Second, why wouldntyou have told us you found once you used the power so soeone was cleared? :face: :face:

If you did what you proposed the JOAT (3nights for each power) would be all powerful, and the gam would be unbalnced.

The JOAT is more of a supplemental role more than a main town role. The powers he was given was fine.

oh wells, good game all...we played by team scrooge. You guys played real well
I had a list of 8 I was suspicious of, turned our 4 were right - Troy (#1 suspect), JC (#2), and npv (#4); the other was MWB.
ha ha...who were the other 4? and when did this happen? when there were 10 people left?
The other 4 were dagny (#3), crayz, slappy, and PensFanInDC.

I gave the list to Pavel and Kicksave right after I was eliminated. I tried to get rid of Troy the day THG was unwrapped, but the only other one that went that way was npv.

During the night before I died I figured this out. I went back to JC's post and saw he said he killed tfrizz and was able to figure out everyones votes along the way. Your mafia killed all vets...canaan, dagny, nan, and someone else I believe...

Once I saw that we had finished the grinch family and knew that you were bad, i started looking at votes and who was pushing an npv was pretty obvious at that point...but I couldn't post. npv really changed his game style in the last day or two pushing votes.

still have no idea why corvi would go after bhaw /sigh
