Quin, the guy who needs the game to go on as long as possible: Nah I'm good

The civs, literally about to lose: Nah we're good.


OH OKAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Guarantee me that voting chaos will extend the game, not shorten it.

That's a guarantizzle for shizzle

The thing is I could.

You see, right now my win condition requires me to be dead. There's more to it than that, but I'm not terribly confident the other stuff is going to transpire the way it would need to. It could, but it would be completely out of my hands.

I would like the remaining civilians to note that I am the only independent not seeking to end or jeopardize their win by helping them burn a lynch on me, which would presumably give MacDougall his win condition back, which, if you're a civilian, your goal is not let MacDougall win anyway, so I feel all that is moot. If you listen to DH or Quin or MacDougall and make deals with them, you deserve the L.

Dying is a prerequisite to my current win condition, but it isn't the only one. Please don't vote for me if you are a civilian. If all I had to do was die, I'd vote for myself.

If it makes the baddies hate me more, I am Tribunal. Someone else might be too, but I am for sure.

Bye DH.

Bye Meow.

S~V~S wrote: ↑Fri Jan 11, 2019 6:56 am I don't think you made the game horrible, I think our choices as civs made the game horrible. I think this was a fun game, and I really enjoyed it. I hit a high note early and made a good move for the town getting a baddie and proving that TH was who he flipped as, so the thread would stop with all the "Oooo but maybe he really WASN'T ..." crap. It removed a layer of potential baddie manipulation from the thread, but alas the rest of the game I was awful lol.

I knew in my heart we had lost when we lynched sig, even though we may have still had the numbers at that point.

Since Quin met his win con, and DH had a bad day yesterday, what do you suggest? Bob?

I wish you wouldn't, but it feels silly to ask you to vote for a townie so.

Hey @Quin if we lynched you today would that hurt you at all?

You gonna turn on me eh?

S~V~S wrote: ↑Mon Jan 14, 2019 8:59 am Quin is on it and I am on it. If the third is still alive, I was not aware of it. I was working on the assumption that the Tribunal was chosen from Tribunal voters on Day Zero, but Quin did not vote for the Tribunal, so I have no way of even guessing who could be on it.

I did not support the Jagged Blade in my Tribunal vote. You played a good game, and you did trick me hard early in the game, but it is my understanding that you sent a known unknown a message listing your entire team. Had I come out of hiding and met you as I proposed in the message I sent you, and had you killed me, this would have been my own fault for sending you the message. This is kind of how I feel about your outing.

So I supported the last Remnant. I don't know if LC will accept that rather than a name, but that is what I did. If there are only two of us, then it will still come down to the poll, since we split that vote if Quin is telling the truth, and I have no reason to believe he is not. If the third is still alive, then it's still anyones game.

true but i think the latter has its own place and it's not 5 minutes after the game ended

That's literally the best time to discuss a game's balance.

If there were problems with some roles just being *too much* and letting some problems slip by, I don't care, the game was amazing as it was and I trust you to take any criticism to heart and keep building on the games you design.

This was my map game and I really loved the concept, though sadly I didn't really get to talk to people much BTSC lol, which was one of the more exciting things I wanted to do. LoRab was a blast in BTSC that day and I really enjoyed our BTSC trying to figure out what the fuck was going on even if we were basically wrong about everything (mostly me).

Mac you did awesome. It was a deserved win, no buts. I wish I had had map info and been able to spot you and figures out how to avoid you. There was some confusion about how my kills worked and I wanted to take advantage of that (I only ever had one kill and I didn't use it; LC's clarification meant I could kill anywhere with water). But yeah, I didn't know what to do, and those who know me know my level of investment fluctuates a lot day by day because I may hyperfocus on the game one day and have a completely new set of things to do by the next. I just know for sure I wanted to be alive through this game to the end.

The civs got too much shit but I thought it was actually a good game, and I disagreed with SVS throwing the towel and the general sentiment that it was hopeless. A small criticism would be that I really don't think sig was able to read the room when he got lynched and just gave up on an actual defense, which I mean, shit happens, it just cost us a lot. Dana played a great game, but she was always hiding! BTSC is one of the most fun parts of map games @Dana and I wish you had tried it out (I don't know for sure that you didn't but that's what it looked like was happening)!

Gg to DH, Quin. I think nine lives is kind of absurd but I get it, he just wasn't supposed to die. Still would've been hilarious if we killed him nine times. DH I wish I could have recruited you and made up for FWWM, lol. Almost got there.
