Just going to pour myself a whiskey here and sit on down.

Scum, you can leave the topic whenever. I think you played a poor game but I am not going to be the man who degrades scum for doing what it needed to win, so good job on the win. You never have to apologize for winning the game of mafia, despite some critique I may level later on here they are mostly critique of town in responding. You won, good job.

Just going to take a sip of my drink.

I am really angry as someone who just loves mafia. I am trying really hard to just take deep, calming breaths and not to lash out as this was probably physically painful for me to watch.

First off, FD and Sultan... please never invoke my name in a game of mafia again. If you do, and I see it, I will interrupt the game and say you do not speak to me. There is no player or host that is going to stop me from saying that. You do not get to invoke the name of Chris in your play ever again. I do not care more about this community at moment than I do my personal pride, you will not sully my good name.

Secondly, this community is banning strongman or I am not playing anymore. It is a thoughtless, trash role that is made more thoughtless and more trash because it may as well be called a Kill Chris button. Mafia should be a game of skill. Not of thoughtless obvious play. I would love to hear the counter argument that mafia NEEDS an assured night kill like that given that it is almost exclusively used on me.

Thirdly props to Han for understanding that when scum trade they do not trade, they bring you closer to death. No one else in this game seemed to understand that scum trading themselves 1 for 1 is often EXTREMELY valuable to themselves. Because outside of Vigs (so I made up for my mislynch day 1 by burying Red, and not that anyone cared to do wagon analysis but my going to jedimess baited two scum to switch off of scum Scare but literally no one just did simple vote analysis the entire game, instead trying to do some weird, fancy version instead of seeing that HB/Pen/Homwere on the wrong contested lynch every time basically but I guess no one wanted to care about that) but yeah. Trade are often in scum's favor. Why people do not think so, I don't know.

Fourthly, one cop and one prostitute is pretty underpowered for two scanning in 18. Why anyone thought there was too much scanning is baffling to me. You were just wrong. I would have expected there to be more scanning if not for the fact that town had a RB/Doctor/BG which is extensive protection. But to constantly question both cop and prosty on balance reasons is just not knowing how to balance a game. At all. You should never speak on balance of a game again based off of that.

Fifthly, I like how when it became obvious there was a doctor and an RB and a BG no one turned to the horrible lightning rod claim and be like Um, there's no way. Not one person did this. I am not going to degrade HB, you play to your audience after all, but shame on town.

Sixthly, which my word processor tells me is not a word, if you don't have time to play don't sign up. Town lost this game because Terra could not play properly. I am not saying Terra made bad decisions, but it is unacceptable for so much time to pass and for a player to be unavailable. It's just not. If Terra counters that same day Pen dies, flips Untrackable, and Bat is confirmed because Untrackable is the counter to his role and the game plays out much differently. Instead a slot goes silent and town makes a poor decision because of it.

I am just so done for now. No one did any scum hunting (aside from Han), you just saw red's corpse drop and finished off the mangled corpse of Scare a day late after murdering someone over him.

I have had the flu all week and I feel sicker to my stomach now than I did during the height of it.
