[FM Donnelly]

Uh... You closed the epilogue thread so we can't post. If you could open it, that'd be great.

[FM Ferengi]

Uh... You closed the epilogue thread so we can't post. If you could open it, that'd be great.

The thread appears to be open to me and the five other people who were able to post there, so this might be a permissions issue. Unfortunately FM Game Master is sleeping and I don't have access to edit permissions. I suggest trying to post from your main account until he has time to look into this. I apologize for any inconvenience this causes.

[Gerik]

Yeah, it's working for me on here. Weird. Oh well.

[Slaol]

In light of Galloways lack of inclusion in the poll I push for a non-vote.

Beyond Galloway please consider Cafaralli and only Cafaralli.

[Apache]

if you don't make a public vote ppl can self vote (unless that's allowed)

[Slaol]

My personal thoughts.

1. Mendez / Galloway
2. Cafaralli
3. Monroe
4. Morgan / Ballard (pre-Savage)
5. Donnelley
6. Ackerman
7. Everyone that didn't play
8. Buchwalter
9. Everyone else that did play in no real order
10. Master game-thrower 1: Phelps
11. Master game-thrower 2: Ryan

[Slaol]

Yes, go vote yourself.

Players who were modkilled are ineligible to win any post-game awards.

I'm not sure why it didn't make it a public poll to begin with. I've PM'ed FM Game Master to look into this when he wakes up. One vote per FM Participant, please. You are allowed to self vote if you feel so inclined.

[Slaol]

Players who were modkilled are ineligible to win any post-game awards.

Gotta get dat non-vote for symbolic award.

[Cryptonic]

I really loved Galloway's "Lynch the last Savage, then it's 2v2 and you just have to indefinitely block us correctly in order to not-lose. Anything else you could do is stupid." It was really convincing lmao.

also hosts made me sad by saying "lord" all the time in the rp it's "ford"!!!!

anyways, gg. i don't know if it was just easy to do, but scum seemed to do well in controlling the mayor. So, goodjob on that front. I don't know why everyone freaked out at Kelso on the last day, when it was the only way he could even have a chance to win. I liked Kelso

Kelso literally said "lynch me" when he posted the "spoilers". Should have lurked and keep them none the wiser.

[Nick]

Oh Dunn is Slaol. Great WIFOM there.

[Cryptonic]

Still, people saying "I hope I never play a FM with you ever again" was a little overboard when he was doing the only thing he could do to have a chance at victory

Oh when I saw that Damus was Galloway..... oh boi I got scared.

[Cryptonic]

Lolol you didnt figure it out when he changed his avatar to the Joker?

[FM Buchwalter]

That is what I said!

Then again I guess we all said that.

[FM Bishop]

Round 1 screening: Died too early to make an impact

While true that I didn't impact to much, I would argue that for the short time I had the interview proved to influence the game long after my death. Shame though that I could not make any use of it. And I apologize to the poor coroner for not thinking about my last will sooner than 5 minutes before reading that I moved onto another plane.
I definitely had fun taunting the Mafia.

[Titus]

When the scum figured out my com, I was a little easier to manipulate. I had my suspicions on Mendez (and even fewer on Donnelly). After figuring out my com, they had an advantage in how to create the arguments. All the scum were people I routinely played with.

I picked Rose. I did have some suspicions of him but he put up an excellent defense on the day I lynched Lichtmann. Plus, he had to manage the end game a lot, forming alliances at the right time, etc.

[Damus_Graves]

Players choice needs to be Donnelly for overall performance.

[FM Buchwalter]

Players choice needs to be Donnelly for overall performance.

At least for the Mafia members, I would vote for Donnelly too.

But I do not feel like I know enough to make a fair vote.

[Slaol]

Oh Dunn is Slaol. Great WIFOM there.

Wut?

[Slaol]

I must say- the completion of my first large game as scum has reborn me for FMs. 15 and 16 were easy mode because of Citizen being simple, but my first game as scum; especially some if it being.. Embarrassing...., has created a renewed interest. Be prepared everyone, Slaol with a whole 18% effort (I'd hope) will be more dangerous in future FMs ;)

[Nick]

I think they still did not trust Earle's interview results?

Wut?

For putting <18% effort.

Thought you got killed early.

[Nick]

Mafia chat is a mess because of disagreement between those who used logic and those who used gut-feeling? I see communication breakdown. Maybe everyone is busy?

I wonder if I could see more of CP9-type night chat in the future.

[Slaol]

Gut feeling people used logic too

Although I was busy early game, yes.

I would hardly call your play embarrassing. I did seriously consider your plan until I could tell you had made up parts of your consigliere report and other things I viewed as lies. Of course, it was kinda hard to make a REAL one when you lacked a consigliere. The smarter play might have been ceding the second drug dealer.

[Slaol]

Well, my plan was to be pro-town enough to try and doge lynch while still leaving the cards in my mafias hands. It worked well enough to basically, seemingly, remove day 6 from being used in scum hunting. I'm sure some got some info, but the majority of the day was 'lolwutdo #heclaimed'. And voting was manipulated onto the double train so it removed that weapon. Idk, I was happy with day 6, but basically nothing else

[powerofdeath]

Voted for myself, that one vote will make me sleep at nights (:

What is it about CP9 night chat that you liked in particular? Obviously we were much more cohesive as a faction, but is there anything else that stuck out to you? Just curious.

Double train was my idea of not wanting to let you go. I kept it after you lied to convince you that all scum hunting had stopped and get the alignments out for everyone. :-p The idea was pretty smart but the execution was lacking.

Yay!

Kelso literally said "lynch me" when he posted the "spoilers". Should have lurked and keep them none the wiser.

Couldn't do anything else... trying to not vote anyone would make them lynch me, Trying to vote skip day? They would have lynched me.
So I trolled for the dead people in the dead chat! =)
Too bad because if no lynch that day, it would have been possible that Galloway and Rose kill themself and I win alone.
They wouldn't have taken the guess to lynch me and get lynched by the other one.

[Nick]

More organized. Sharing of ideas and reads in a coherent manner. Everyone on the same frequency so evil schemes and nasty plots can flow.

[Nick]

Yay!

I thought with your activity level, (1) busy disappear for 12 hours then, (2) thinking hard for 11 hours, then (3) making my decision now for 1 hour would be believable enough to buy you enough time.

But is it a must lynch day?

[CmG]

My vote went for Titus. Had town totaly under control at day. Wasn't afraid to do the calls while others just used her as an excuse for not trying to get the game into the right direction. Her night actions were shit yeah and basicly you can blame her for a lot of questionable choices, but her day play was still the best there was for a towny. I think guts and a lot of activity has to be rewarded.

[Burnt Eskimo]

Why are people voting for me....

[Titus]

Titus made a heckofagood Mayor.

Thank you.

[Nazzhoul]

Thank you.

Agree with CmG. You were certainly better than you were given credit for, especially considering that this was your first game. Your whole "gladiator" play was actually really good, in spite of its flaws.

Though I honestly still don't get the Biggs lynch :P

That was early in the game... later in the game AKA The 3 last day I think, I wasn't that busy. So it would appear as me wanting a day without lynch.

Also, They wouldn't allow a no lynch day because This way I had 80% chance to win.

Meh. That was still a nice game.

I was wrong about the Biggs lynch. I thought he was scum because the witch targeted a delta twice. Even if I was wrong, then the Biggs lynch essentially confirmed a witch being present in the game, thus removing the random any and forcing us down the path of confirming all the roles in the game.

[Numbertwo]

Not a single savage has recieved a award, were we really that bad? I would have voted on galloway if i could since he completely fooled me that he was a townie untill he started pushing for a lynch against mason.

[Titus]

I voted for Rose. No the savages weren't bad. Most of them just didn't stand out in my mind.

[TheDarkestLight]

I died too early to stand out. D:
