Yeah don't get me wrong, when those games go well, they are absolutely riveting. When they go to pot, it really ruins the want to play again and invest the time to learn a whole new game style

Kaizer was the real hero here in protecting LITT. LITT was on a roll. I presume LITT was choosing between WK and SDD. He chose correctly. But Kaizer allowed that to happen.

to those not reading our PMs, aka everybody... WK called LITT as seer, we were ready to kill him overnight. Then LITT came out, for some odd reason and pretty muched saved the game for the village. We knew Kaizer would save LITT, giving them one more see, and we figured it would be me or WK, depending on who was alive. We decided to vote myself off to save face for columbia, as WK would have been looked into. WK could have finished me off the first time, but cast a vote on redwill...so if we steered the vote to WK after LITT came out, it would have been an obvious vote to go after me, since WK didn't finish me off. Confusing, but we were in trouble as soon as he came out. Basically :thumb: to LITT.

Quick PMs from RPs too. Nothing worse than waiting 4 hours for a PM.

A very smart play. Our plans were already precarious at that point, and LITT pushed us right over.

Yes, definitely. That is the #1 killer to any game, IMO.

i'd be for a rule of some sort of time limit/penalty to RPs waiting over X amount of time.

Agree. Quick modding and quick rp response are keys to good games, despite those who say that it's strategy for rps waiting to send in commands.

Maybe time sensitive PMs. Like if the vig and werewolf pm to kill each whoever PMs first wins the fight? Silly things like that?

Think things like rewards or penalties for pm times have been discussed, but not utilized.

And sorry about that bullet Rylan. You were the only one who hadn't thrown a red out there.

I really regret my shaf vote in this game. I went with a preliminary gut feeling about his first post and consequently denied the game of one of its best players. Sorry, man.

I like this idea, and think it would give the game a more dynamic, real-time feel.

It's a tough call. When I'm an RP, I try really hard to get my PM in within minutes of the day phase ending. But sometimes it just doesn't work. I occasionally have to be gone for hours at a time at a moment's notice.

I like the idea of rewards/enticements for early PMs. Punishment options are usually too harsh, especially when delays are honestly unavoidable.

Like I said, it's a tough call.

i regret the shaf vote too, but i had no choice, the best i could hope for was a chance he was red. ulf made me question my Litt defense because i'm a noob, i'm pretty much salesman bait. and canaan scared the crap out of me with this PM after i protected Litt and got myself killed:
you chose... poorly :shock:
i thought for sure i had missed something and ruined the game, but he reassured me that it was indeed a 50/50 shot. had to go with litt and get another see.

It was a game-changing move that we really didn't expect. Like ulf said, we had you in our sights for that night. In fact, I was pretty sure about you shortly after I submitted my kill pm on mac (who we were sure was also green :face: ). Can't believe that my going after redwill made you reveal yourself. Very bad luck for us that you had already seen him.

This game sucked, mainly due to poor moderating.
