I mean we tried, turns out there were roles that circumvented our kill and block combo. It’s a good thing we didn’t try and strong kill there that night because it would have burned the strong kill AND our only distance kill all to fail.
Coordinating attacks was not a very viable route given the map setup.

I'm glad everyone was entertained by my role lmao. I was honestly having a tough time getting into the normal game, I wasn't lying when I said I was still in spec chat mode, it was hard for me to work up the effort to actually go and quote a bunch of posts and accuse people the way I normally do. I did want to keep myself from being NK'd so part of it was just wanting a healthy amount of side-eyes on me, but I definitely got a bit too lazy by the end of D2 so I don't blame anyone who wanted to vote me out.
I still have technically never been mislunched though! This is only the second time I've been voted out of a game, and I was not Town in either of them lol.
It was so fun being the T-Rex after death though lmao, had wayyyyy more fun once I was just shitposting and attacking people lol. Seeing everyone's reactions when I first showed up again on D3 was priceless lmao.
I don't have any reads, I stopped paying attention to the normal game talk once I died really, I was just scrolling to see if there were any attacks on me or if anyone was talking about dinosaurs lol.

The weirdest thing about Tearable’s read on me is I couldn’t tell you what games I’ve played with him in it if my life depended on it. I was just being nice because I’ve been working with him a lot to make sure his game is good to run later this year, but apparently I was a real dick to him at some point in the past lol My bad, worked out for him though. You’re welcome for my tough love before buddy.

To be fair, I can't blame them lol.
Alexem
Yeah, I'm town
Agreed, it's getting quite uncomfortable to read. I'm not going to say that Jman hasn't made mistakes with how he's used and declared his role, but I'd be very hard pushed to think that he'd be on the scum team from the way that he's played. From a town perspective, I can't see what flipping him would achieve beyond giving scum ammo to use his activity for FUD purposes.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Yeah, I’m going to be straight. This is bad play from town. Killing Jman at this stage is just laziness. Like at this point when the only scum you’ve hit has been because of a Puns check on someone no one way paying attention to maybe that should be a wake up call to get out of your current tunnels.
It feels like they are going after jman because they don't like the way he's playing than any true scum read. I do share some of the frustrations that some of them have shared but it's one thing to be a little frustrated and another thing to use that frustration to push against him so much.
Alexem
Yeah, I'm town
Ultimately, town's job is to vote out players that they are certain are threats to the town team - namely scum and hostile neutrals. Voting for players just because they've made mistakes - or otherwise just wanting to get rid of them without any real thought for their alignment - is an easy way to bring about a mis-hit, and that helps nobody but the scum team.

hey jman. If you ever read this; I just wanna say you gotta not distress yourself too much over the gameplay of [Mafia], friend :(
By signing up for a game of [Mafia]/[Werewolf] you've entered an arena, in which distrust & slander is the STANDARD EQUIPMENT, sword & shield for each player. It's okay to feel emotionally hurt by people accusing you of lying and not trusting you, but I hope I can safely say that most of that DISTRUST from the others here, is not a personal attack against you jman; it's players actively trying to emotionally manipulate you so they can win the game.
That sounds really bad when I type it out
But good players don't hate you as a person, jman. They may be insulting and condescending to you, they may ignore you; but, all that hate from them is "hate"; it's fake hate, it's pretend distrust of you. Because they're really just hating/distrusting what YOU ARE PRETENDING TO BE in the game, not you
BUT, if you really feel someone is insulting your intelligence for real over the line, that's not cool, and you should definitely call them out for it. But understand that you have to warn that player AS IF YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF PLAYING SPORTS WITH THEM: what I mean is, please understand that in the middle of this type of Deception/Emotion-based game that [Mafia] is, even if you are ACTUALLY being mentally real-life hurt by something in-game, you will likely & unfortunately NOT be believed/listened to if the way you complain about it to others is by posting "ALL-CAPS END MY SUFFERING STOP IT JUST BELIEVE MEEE PLLSLSSSLSLS"; trust me, I've tried it meself gameplay-wise and it never works the way you want it, what more if you're actually in need?
Players will only think you are being melodramatic FOR THE GAME, as unfortunate as that may be. Most players won't realise you are actually asking for real-life relief from the stress.
So, if you feel you are in real-life pain in the middle of a [Mafia] game, please as formally as you can just tell the game-host and the other players... and bow out if you need to... Don't suffer in real life on account of this game
You gotta treat it like theatre; although the emotions you may feel are real, pls understand you're taking part in a show, by which I mean you and the other players were given parts to play as, to act out like actors do. And at the end of the day, at the end of the game; all the actors put their costumes/Roles in the laundry of GG and you're just people/friends together again, yeah?
You may pour your heart & soul into your PLANS and your GAMBIT; but you have to treat your plans like a MOVIE SCRIPT. If that shit falls apart on you like the biggest tragedy e v e r, don't beat yourself up. And DON'T be angry at the other players for not believing/"understanding" your ACTING. Treat it like you are a new movie that got bad reviews, laugh and learn and adapt another novel, yeah?
You said you read our games back on GAF and that's cool; I'll tell you, I've lost real sleep over games before, especially early-on (in Cthulhu Island yep, but most of all in Love Boat 1; those were rough seas bruh) and nothing hurts more than to see your carefully-laid plans / gambit crumble to nothing or even worse, backfire and get you killed (as 91.7% of mine do).
But glory-seeking should be harmless fun, yes?

Jman just gotta come to a decision and lean into it. If you want to be gambit extraordinaire like...go for it man, you’re allowed to play how you want. But don’t then expect your gambits to result in rock solid outcomes. Lynch all liars is a thing and when you go for gambits sometimes you’ll get burned. You might catch flak for it, but it really isn’t all that serious friend.

I still stand by this #SickRead that I put out right before I died btw, Reki is totally Scum in this game. The big quote walls and large posts are just obfuscating the fact that they are actually Scum, it's basically the same game Natiko was playing, just with more overt politeness.
Chuggernaut
HONK HONK MF
Yup. I’m still confident in this read lol. Reki is just making noise that looks like their putting in work because there’s a lot of it, but there’s not really anything of substance and they’re not really pursuing anything. People really need to stop falling for the “Polite quote wall = townie scum hunting” thing.

UwU
Easy and pointless question, Wee has already read all of Kawl's posts and gave a read, but now Reki wants to give her some homework to do? For what reason? To try to make her second guess herself?
Reacts nonchalantly to Wee's vote on them and places doubts on Wee's memory of them.
Fluff.
Fluff game strategy suggestion, totally NAI.
Fluff comment about Tearable's vote on Natiko.
Throws more shade at Kawl.
Another instance of giving someone a pointless homework assignment that is only going to make them start second guessing themselves.
Tries to mess with Launch's read on Hawthorn.
Fluff.
Is ok with LP having scum reads on Ynnek and Kawl, who are both low hanging fruit imo.
Fluff.
Throws shade at Kopite's Doctor claim.
Fluff.
Says the push for Hedin was the "most sus thing" after catching up, throwing some shade at people who were pushing for that.
More shade at Kopite.
Fluff.
Wants to put doubt on the protection claims.
Fluff.
Asks Ynnek for takes on people who are pushing for Jman and agrees they are sus.
But then immediately agrees with flipping Jman for "info".
Asks Salva for thoughts on Kawl. Really seems to want people to focus on Kawl.
FUD about a possible Godfather having been green checked.
Asks Hawthorn to explain her Town reads without using their role claims as a reason, so more homework assignments to make people second guess themselves.
Pushes the "Vere was a Scum Mason" narrative, which seems really weird to me as I've never heard of a Mason being Scum ever, and I don't know why people are leaning towards this strange reality as being a possibility.
Random role/mechanic speculation and WIFOM about PRs not being night killed.
Fluff.
Holds off on giving any reads of their own just yet.

In conclusion, that's a big wall of nothing and Reki is Scum.

It's about Tearable's shots and Jman. Jman made the case for the stay of his own execution - keep him alive for one more day so that he can protect Tearable and Tearable can check someone. The elephant in the room is that Jman cannot achieve what he wants because Tearable has ran out of shots.

Kawl? Nin? Wee??
The full size of the team depends on whether there's another Neutral or not. With 2 confirmed already, I'm starting to lean towards it being a 5 player team.
