No, I agree. I thought you were awesome. I think you were disadvantaged by people being less familiar with your character, even though I gave them extensive dossiers on everybody, much more than I put in the role pms.

But kyro (without knowing it was you) ranked "the snake guy" first.

No, I completely got the kills. You don't need to dumb it down that much, I loved the flavor. And obviously thanks to both VR and KM for modding, it's always a pleasure.

Thanks VR! Lots of fun.

I really wanted to stay as utr as possible but I felt like we absolutely had to lynch a wolf and I had peeked coordi so I pushed and pretty much outted myself. I wanted to get one more peek in but couldn't take a chance on a mis-shun. Maybe my next peek (felix) might have made a difference but I kinda doubt it.

Kudos to the wolf team. Towards the end I think some of the village was getting closer to them but there were just too many questionable villagers in the shun line.

Stellar effort by jonnyd there.

shortline made a good point in dvc. Never ever lynch a strong player early. Either let the wolves decide or use the halfway rule. But not d1 or d2.

n3 - i despise extremely low posters because it's kind of an angle to just give no info, and crackedquads I was pretty sure was a wolf and an extreme low poster, so this was perfect. Plus there was a chance there might not be a n4 if i was wrong!

FWIW, if I was alive n4 for some reason, I was shooting YKW for the same reasons as crackedquads. Who knows if it would have changed things
Tokyo, were you attempting to get a wolf or just a low post player?

I almost considered making an analysis post pointing out that the SK is soft aligned with the wolves and should go after a clear villager (because a wolf is more likely to be protected), but thought that would be way too wolfy.

Snakes. Why’d it have to be snakes.

I meant, you must be wondering how such a dashingly beautiful and almost omni-potent guy with unlimited IQ like me would even talk to you at all?
I put you in first place.

Special appreciation to:

Uncle Dynamite

who reviewed the roleset for me!

Also to our minievent judge:

chuckleslovakian
iraisetoomuch
kyro
marknfw

who btw, did not know any roles or alignments and were banned from railing the thread until their judging was over, so they wouldn't be biased.



Also shoutouts to Thingy for suggesting the theme and Stork who had suggested a poisoner mechanic that would be great for a reunion game but I ended up cutting because I was concerned about having too many confirmable villagers.

And of course, co-modding with KM was not only a privilege but really really fun. Hysterical laughter was frequent, disagreements were few and always polite, and not that you guys needed me to tell you this, but she pretty much is awesome in every imaginable way.
I did have a soft spot for Dobby, and thought Dobby played it well. Obviously KM GOAT

But KM had the tedious job of reposting everything from the first thread and I didn't think to mention it to her...

I giggled when I saw that all my careful forethought about the PMs was for nothing because she went ahead and titled the thread that way!




Yeah you just happened to title it Redux...I know you...

I was aiming at the lowest post player that I thought was a wolf. I was gonna shoot for him or YKW, but crackedquads literally posted zero times the coordi day, so went with that.

Also, I disagree, I think the SK is soft aligned with the village in a multi-kill game, especially when the village gets destroyed. If coordi had been a villager potentially I would have even gotten 3 shots!

1) I screwed up and some of you paid the price
2) I had a great time anyway and hope you did too
3) I don't know if the sub was the right move, but it was the least spewy one imo
4) Read the part about ScottHoward if you ever knew him. Just read it!
Scotthoward character description was ELITE. I really wish you had the mostsmooth masons too lol . What ever did happen to him?

I had a LOT of fun writing that role description. You could probably tell.

Scott was still occasionally playing as recently as a few years ago, but I don't know if he still does. It's definitely possible, as he is, among other things, the Man of a Million Gimmicks (as opposed to atak, the Man of a Billion Gimmicks. )

Also, I really appreciated the way you played to win the game outright as the serial killer. Yes, it meant that on your last day you needed to village hard, as the only remaining threat to you was a lynching with the seers and village nks gone, but I thought (and said in dead village chat) that you played your role perfectly both in and out of thread. You definitely deserved the win.
