And sorry for the silencing SVS and I went out of our way to not include any silencers in the game, but the Llamas had access to a posting curse, and Matt decided to curse you into not posting the last Day. The curse was open ended and SVS and I did not have time to discuss whether or not to allow it before we had to enact it. I feel pretty terrible that it slipped through and caused you to not be able to defend yourself, though I'm surprised they ended up lynching you, as if you would fake such a thing at endgame.

Obviously I was wrong, but that was exactly why I thought Sorsha was faking it, because you didn't include silencers in the game.

But why would someone pretend to be silenced at the end of the game? I think people think people are pretending to be *watever* than those that are actually pretending.

I have never pretended to be cursed/silenced whatever. Have you?

TH explains it better than I could ^^ up a few posts.

I've considered it, but never done it.

Most people have not.

SVS do you know why Boomslang said he had info on LC and why wasn't that considered an info dump?

He was trying a gambit, he was positive LC was bad, and pulled a bluff.

I think the non-technical winning team played a sublime game, though. I suspected Mac, but I was never on to Wilgy, Motel Room or Matt, and I didn't get the sense anyone else was in the time before I died either.

Oh wow - did that ever backfire.

Anyway, thanks TH and SVS for hosting such a marvelous game. You guys did fantastically, and definitely were able to garner a lot of effort from the players. I know that neither the civilians nor the Indys won, but I think we fought valiantly, especially in the second half of the game. Thanks for keeping the game running smoothly, and keeping us motivated, and for dropping bea in a pit of nubness. I should be dropped in next.

Agreed, they were awesome.

I played an amazing game.

You helped convince me in the closing second that FZ was a civilian.

Also, Matt was a great endgame player. He was a joy to work with

Oh metalmarsh, when I said I thought you were a very bad indy I was thinking you were the Hunger (from Recruitment) because I had just been hungered to get FZ lynched in 3 days. (I read FZ as civ though and never did even try figuring if I got her lynched and then I would get lynched we would lose 2 civs. If I didn't do anything I would die, which I did, but that was only 1 civ). As it turned out, hungering was on one of the team's position wheel.

I'm not happy I got voted off day 2 especially since I actually gave my shield to a civ :P.

Though SVS gave me an epic death which totally makes up for it.

Good game all, thanks for hosting SVS and TH. I'm glad I was able to play GoC within my first year on this site next year my goal is to make it to phase 3.

I'll post all the night poll info later if anyone wants to see it.

I was responsible for the day Mac was insanified, at least five players had to post in questions and I think DH was smilies but someone else also cursed him that night.

It's no problem, it comes with the territory.

I tried to get lynched Day 1: that didn't work.

I could only win by surviving and having two other players alive who had also voted for me during the game. As a result, I had a motivation to get votes early in the game :P, and then had to fight my way back into better standing. It was difficult. I thought I was a shoe-in to be lynched Day 3, andI was ready to give up early on in the game, but TH helped motivate me back into the swing.

I wasn't lying at any point when I said I wanted the civilians to win though. That was my self-declared mission, not unlike what Sorsha did.

I am glad you liked it I especially liked the "It is now night and none of you have shields" part, lol.

Linki, yeah that poll was alot of fun

I also have no idea how or why motel room was lynched Day 10. Was that Sorsha's doing?

Also, I thought about telling Matt to protect bea Night 11 instead of FZ, just on the off-chance we were wrong, but Matt had left for work.

That would have actually been a huge deciding factor I thin.

Great game baddies! I think best-case I could say I suspected only two out of the eight of you, and those ones I only pressed shortly before getting myself killed, so most people played really well under the radar. Sorsha too of course.

And thanks, hosts!

As a host what most amazed me about this game was how much the civs suspected each other. Most of the civ lynches in this game iirc were led by other civs.

Just popped in to see whats happened. Hey we won! Nice one Matt and everyone. Thanks for the game mods.

Really sorry for playing like I did, especially in a champs game. That was shitty but I was and still am legit on holiday and wasn't going to be spending time on here. I just did what I could to not get modkilled cos there was no more replacements.

Matt was the one who killed Bea iirc.

It was Sorsha's most devious night poll. The Night 9 "lynch" decided how votes would be weighted the next day. "Metalmarsh89" won the poll which meant that votes for baddies counted for 2. There were other options that would not have worked out as well for the civs, but Sorsha was quite clever in designing that one.

I know. If I told him to use a protect he said he had on her, and she died anyway, I would have thought differently when Day 12 started.

And Matt knocked out of the park at the end. He spun the most elaborate bullsuit lie in his temp BTSC with Marsh, it was a joy to behold. And he worked so hard during the final lynch, he never coasted.

He really was amazing, and he was having so much fun

Who killed me, and what was the reason this time?

Epignosis wrote:Who killed me, and what was the reason this time?

Wasn't us. We needed to keep copying your kill

I knew I should have redirected Matt to matt and not fz to fz. Doh. well done matt. Well done.

Now that I'm home I can say, well done, SVS and TH!! That was a very fun and well thought out game! Great job to Matt and his teammates for making it so far. You were worthy opponents, indeed. And apologies to Matt for my blow up post a couple days before I died. It was a last ditch effort to save face and remain alive. That being said it was completely fake, tone and all. You played one hell of a game!

Oh my god, that Night 9 poll.

Sorsha, I'm sorry I robbed you of a win. But you killed me in World Reborn so now we're even. :P

Wow. We'll done Sorsha. Sorry for actually thinking you were on the other team

Speaking of which... what took you off of the poll?

Great night posts Sorsha! And the whole time we thought we were voting for positions. Silly us.

Draconus wrote:Speaking of which... what took you off of the poll?

I should specify that I can't remember what day you were off the poll. I did see that some of your options could do that.

Technically Timmer killed you :P

Draconus wrote:Speaking of which... what took you off of the poll?

I took myself off, I forget what night poll that was from-night 8 maybe. As long as three other players had been removed from the poll already I could take myself off once.

I told you guys there was likely a Trickster.

Real talk whoever hosts 2017 GOC better watch out because I read fine print like a motherfucker.

Why should you have survived, Mr Technicality?

I voted first for the Night Protection that night.

Thanks hosts! It was alot of fun! The doctor still has a lot to learn, my goal is to not die next champies! (saying this sealed my fate didn't it?)

Epic Noses! Why did y'all kill me!?! I thought by playing scummy enough I'd be able to dodge your nk...

Killed you because we didn't have the numbers or time to lynch you.
