If you put a watcher in instead of a tracker, the watcher and doc would claim day 1 and protect each other and there'd be two clears for the whole game.

Sentran.....!!!! This is your just desserts for assuming that I am scum...

But anyway good game. I lost interest after the lurkers really spoiled things. The posting rates really allowed Q'man to hide.

w00t! Yay, Mafia!

Amb expressed dissatisfaction with the way the scum was knocking off lurkers or lower than average posters, but it seemed the best strategy. I had to eliminate the quiet ones in order to keep the more vocal ones suspecting each other.

I was guilty of inactivity over the holidays, due to the holidays, being a merit badge counselor at winter caml, and dealing with a mother-in-law with declining faculties. I felt bad about getting prodded.

Congrats, Quailman. I can't believe my fellow townies were such dolts. Especially after the night I was lynched 2-to-1-to-1-to-1.

Guys: I had very clearly stated that I was voting for Quailman, and gave a credible reason why. No one else had stated definitively whom they'd be voting for. Even if you didn't agree with the reason, you have to admit it was credible enough for someone else to claim to have been convinced by it. Now, if anyone other than Quailman had been the last scum, don't you think that person would have voted with me? With the votes spread all over, he would have had to try to get a majority somewhere, and the best place to do that would be to join the one definitive vote that is out there.

Thanks for running it, Jedo. I enjoyed it quite a bit more than I thought I would, because this was really the first time that I really learned what you mean by spotting scum. There wasn't anything in the note that, at the time, looked scummy. It was only in retrospect, as I thought about the debate that was raging at that time, but with the new knowledge of the alignments of those being discussed -- I then considered what sort of note I might have written if I were the scum buddy, then went looking for it.

As soon as I died I knew it was Qman. He had the lowest post count of the remaining 3 and should have been the next to go instead of me. Thanks Apple sause for pointing out the pattern. Revenge most foul!

It was a good game all the same.

Hey Sentran, is there still time/room for people to sign up for the Fire and Ice game?

I can't help chuckling at everyone's reaction to my Night 1 vote for Quailman which came out of nowhere, but I'm glad my discussion help get 3iff to slip up.

gg, Jedo and all.

^^; Ahh well, I'm glad I was the mafia kill that day, seeing as my computer crashed during that time, and I lost the list of sites I was on due to that, the fact that I didn't save my list of addresses before my mom went on it and a deletion of my e-mail address. So I would have been gone, regardless.

I, to be honest, don't know why I voted for Zag at that time. Let's just call it idiocy and leave it at that.

Apple Sause- Sorry about killing you after you stepped up. I was totally confused on day one, and even day two. I was trying to kill people that wouldn't point back at anyone. I wanted to keep people who were suspicious of each other alive. If A, B and C wanted to lynch D, and E hadn't indicated a preference, my choice was easy.

wow... GG scum.

Personally i felt the tracker was totally useless that early in the game, and with my style, there was NO way i was making it until the end of the game. I wish i could have helped you guys here. i noticed that the day i claimed when i thought i was about to go under zag was going to pop up and change his vote. oh well.

It was well played by all, quail, good job in exploiting the towns sole weakness of this game: silence. even i was guilty of it.

Damn. I had strong and (I believe) valid reasons for my suspicion and subsequent voting of Amb. Well played Quailman.

Quailman, brilliant play. I have to read over the last few days posts but very-very well done. Makes up for my suicidal posts just before I got killed.

More comments soon.

Enjoyable game, I followed it with enthusiasm until the end.

In a game where information was non-existant, I said too much at the start and made myself stand out as a potential target in a field of blandness...so everyone piled on. Once again, the deadline closed on me before I could refute any accusations...

I'm surprised that the town took two of us down almost immediately and had fears for our quick elimination, though getting me was just a lucky guess!

Quailman delicately stepped clear of controversy and claimed a brilliant win. Some very clever targetting. Nice one.
