Thank you to all players for being a great lineup. I hope to see you all in Season 2.

Ps... Floyd didn't check Matt.

Well, I don't normally participate in the MVP business, but I have to make an exception for this one.

Right? Do we even need to PM you, Golden? Lol

Anyway, I gotta get goin' soon, glad you posted Golden, I didn't want to miss the complete after party!!

Silly baddies. You're not supposed to win during season 1.

Season 2, though...

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 6:20 pm**

Well I'll be damned. Bullzeye was my strongest town read of everyone remaining. I was torn between every other player being the last baddie. If I had lived to vote on this final day I would've officially sealed the deal that my voting record for this game is the worst I've ever had, and that's saying something.

Good job fellow civilians!

Once you flipped civ, I realized that I only voted you becasue I did not think any of the others were bad. Which meant maybe Bullz was. So I read & reread Day 1 until I talked myself into it.

I am really sorry about that, voting for you.

I am not that familiar with your fakie faker, but I bet it is pretty good. So I am gonna say Epignosis. I am proud of my civ read on him, I almost never have one, I usually suspect him for role play type stuff. So I am glad he was really a civ

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 7:06 pm**

I should know by now that if I'm not killed by Night 3, I'm not doing it right.

No problem, I'm often the ideal lynch choice when everyone else isn't looking bad enough. Amazing call on Bullz by the way, when I reread Day 1 before I was lynched he seemed unlikely to be a teammate of Matt or Scotty to me. I am glad you saw what I didn't see.

Why was there no kill last night?

I assumed it was to avoid a potential endgame coin flip.

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 7:29 pm**

Ah, I was under the assumption that if there was 1 baddie and 1 civ left, the baddie would win the game. Was it wrong of me to assume that?

Yeah. If the kill had gone ahead today's poll would also have included a 'no lynch' option so that the town had the choice to avoid it too.

Of course, no one actually ever asked me how ties were to be resolved

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 7:31 pm**

That actually was another thing that made me suspish~ since everyone was saying "Bullz/SVS=civ" I was SURE one of us was gonna die. When neither of us died, I thought that was weird. I always play one day at a time. So the coin flip thing did not occur to me.

Well, I wouldn't have answered the question anyway, and as there are five seasons to go, I'm still not going to yet.

But it is interesting as a host to see the assumptions behind thought processes sometimes. I designed the choices of roles and fake claims very deliberately with the idea in mind that people would make assumptions based on the claims. It was fun to see that play out.

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 7:40 pm**

How would you have resolved a tie then?

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 7:56 pm**

I could've saved myself a lot of time and effort if I had just said, "Okie Dokie S~V~S."

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 8:05 pm**

That is always a good policy

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 8:06 pm**

wooo! nice call, SVS.

sorry I was a really shitty player

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 8:08 pm**

Good game civs! And especially gg Typh and SVS for sniffing us out. And Sorsha for protecting Typh N1. That was a real bummer.

If Wilgy had died instead of me and we had killed off Typh early on like we were supposed to, I think this story would be very different.

And WHAT? Floyd didn't look at Matt N1? Who did he look at, Golden? He sure gave no indication otherwise.

This is the only reason why I was swayed to lynch Bullz

...Then again, I would've been suspish had SVS died first as well

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 8:19 pm**

I still can't see Spectator Chat

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 8:20 pm**

Floyds peek was svs. His night one check was zebra.

Mp will make spectator and mafia chat visible to all when he has a chance. Or th if he is watching.

I trusted you Scotty...

I just want to point out... There was not a single baddie on the Floyd wagon.

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 8:28 pm**

Thanks for the diversion, Golden. I had fun with my role and being a complete shit at the game.

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 8:30 pm**

Thanks for defending us Epi

I know you did, my lovely pawn.

I figure at this point I'm not giving you a reason to trust me again, but also you should know that I did feel bad about it, and let go of your coattails after Day 2.

And yes, the civs singlehandedly killed their own cop.

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 8:36 pm**

Still figured out you were bad regardless of survival condition

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 9:01 pm**

I'm always the first one the cop checks, lol

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 9:14 pm**

I honestly thought going after Bullz as I always do, in every game, would be my safest bet.

Mothereffin' SVS...

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2016 10:24 pm**

Thanks for a fun game, Golden

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 12:39 am**

I do declare that svs has an unassailable lead in the mvp vote.

Well chosen, she would have been my pick too.

Fuckin' A.

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 12:52 am**

Also, svs being such a badass was, in its own way, pretty good role play. Sayid wouldn't beat around the bush, he'd just get in there and kick baddie ass.

A shout out, though, to everyone who was role playing - one more thing that made the game super fun for me to host.

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 12:54 am**

I would have role-played if I had seen a single episode of the show.

You...haven't seen Lost? I'd recommend watching the first 5 seasons, and then pretending it was cancelled.

Lovely first 5 seasons, though!

Fixed.

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 3:57 am**

I'm not big into shows for this very reason. I want to end a work of fiction on a high note, not an unresolved one and certainly not one that fizzles out. I rarely watch ongoing shows because I'm wary that they won't end well, and when Lost ended everyone was either disappointed or absolutely infuriated, which put me off of watching it.

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 6:11 am**

Lost didn't exactly fizzle out, but it derailed out of the fucking orbit of logic, narrative and any cinematic sensibilities and just got too addicted to a never-gonna-tell-ya style of mystery, mythology, murders and mindfarks. That's why I'm saying it became painful after the first 2 seasons, not after 5.

The first half of season 3 was lost at its worst... But arguably the second half of season 3 and season 4 were its peak. A lot of people gave up early in season three and I don't blame them, but I think it's still well worth persevering through.

I understand the objection to season 6. I don't agree, but I do understand why it's divisive.

Fixed back.

I liked the derailment out of logic, etc., and into mystery mindfuckiness.

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 8:51 am**

I would have liked them too, if they would have led to actual resolutions at the right time and not make me feel I'm being mocked at, due to the quality of concepts like "writing", "acting" or "suspense".

That being said, I wouldn't mind showing up for subsequent seasons of this game, with the desire to play a certain someone.

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 9:29 am**

The mastery of Lost was the character development, interaction, and backstories, and, yes, the sense of mystery is excellent throughout. Unfortunately, I don't think the writers knew how to resolve the web they had woven (perhaps its true they never meant to, but I don't believe that- I think any writer worth his salt would rather seek resolution rather than choose to jump the shark smoke monster). Excellent show with a bullshit final season.

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 2:00 pm**

So I hear I have S~V~S to thank for a Civ win? Cool.

You silly baddies thought I had a non-vanilla role I bet!

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 2:03 pm**

I believe we were all terrified of your legendary talents and thus had to destroy you.

Where's Bullz? Bullzy, get out here, m'man. You nearly won an Oscar, friend!

Posted: **Fri Jan 22, 2016 3:39 pm**

I mean I like the fifth season of Game of Thrones and I love the second season of True Detective, both of which are hated by a lot of people for reasons I'll never understand. I'll give it a shot soon.
