I was not a fan of losing a civ to the civ ninja, but luckily the Reeds brought him back, and he went on to win :D

I loved the (unknown to the end) win con that everyone who had ever been on the winning team won. Nice job Roxy, I hope that you & your family have smooth sailing ahead.
The Reeds didn't have the Rez anymore since the abilities had rotated.
thanks for the game Rox and congrats to those who won. sorry for killing you MP. I had tried to kill bass the night before and it failed so I panicked and picked again quickly during the day (which in a way is your fault for starting all the suspicion on me and making me make use my ability rashly to get attention off me :p ) but yea that sucked making the wrong choice :(
LC and Russ thanks for the fun btsc :hugs:

Yes, well, it's easy to understand why two initial Donners who finished the game as the winning bad team and not being lynched either would feel pleased as punch about winning and about how they played. It'd be more interesting to know, for instance, what Antonio feels about rezzing a foreseeable future baddie if he stayed and died as a civ - except if didn't and also lasted in the game long enough to switch to the Forces side, in which case nevermind, you're all winners. Rezzing in this game should have only be used if you lasted all the way through and needed the rezz to work in your favour in case the civs would be close to get underwhelmed. But I suppose mafia is run on sentimentality.

Nice waste of a third bullet there, splints. Sorry I left you with so little. :p

I don't understand, SVS, what am I not supposed to upload or what do you believe I intended to upload in the first place. :shrug: I did in fact upload my tables as images on a different site, but I guess links are a always huge no-no for you. Also, I'd like to see an official rule on that, since we're at it. Yes, more specific rules and less "what SVS wants and gets" would be nice.

What are you talking about? I thought you wanted to upload direct to the board. We don't do that. If you meant otherwise, I misunderstood.

Its a board capability, not a rule. Only MP can upload to the board.

I was aware of the board capability, because there is no button to upload anything. So no, I couldn't have meant to upload anything directly here, let alone Excel sheets.

Well forgive me, then. You asked about uploading, so I was trying to be helpful. Again, not sure what you think I was talking about, but I was not trying to imply you were not ALLOWED to do anything, just that the board would not support it.

I asked for advice on how to save and upload selections of Excel sheets in a better format that I already did i.e. screenshot images. Glad to clarify that for you the second time, as always.

Please give it a rest. This is hateful and not productive.

Good job team. I thought the strategy was brilliant, and it pretty much worked out. I just wish I could have gotten the chance to employ it.

Ricochet, I don't think S~V~S is trying to frustrate you or misunderstand you.

If you want my advice, upload your screenshot to an online photo site (like photobucket), right click the image, and click "view image." Then, copy and paste the image url into your post. Finally, instead of using the url tags, use the img tags. Your image should appear in the thread without anyone having to click a link.

It isn't possible to upload an Excel or Word Doc file to the thread, though. Just the image.

Regardless of if llama became a baddie, Antonio still rezzed a civvie role back into the game.

If we had known that the abilities switched we probably would have used the rez while we had it. I wouldn't have wanted a rez to fall into baddie hands. That's another of the reasons I was so quick with the civvie kill. Use it before you lose it!

I didn't want to use img tags, because I feared the image might appear to big in the topic (plus, since they're three, the post would be annoying long as well). I just remember seeing someone uploaded Google/Drive spreasheets or something in Film once and I wondered if something like that is possible with Excel ones.

I didn't want to hand my bullets over either (well, surely not all three of them), but as I've said, that logic works less better with other powers such as rezzing, in an exceptional game such as this. Case in point, the rezzed winner.

Roxy said roles and/or abilities will be switched from the start. I honestly didn't expect her to leave me hanging as Levinah, but I think the first Rotation was universally abilities-only, so oh well.

Not me, I knew my goose was cooked as soon as the BTSC groups all excluded me. I knew that if I didn't get killed Night 1 (which I was), I would be lynched Day 2. So I ran with it.
I remember saying something about being excited to play with you again. I rescind that statement. :fist:
I asked Black Rock who she wanted to die. ;)
Everything makes sense now. :faint:
:hugs: :D

Epig killed me, and apparently BR was his BTSC partner at the time.

At first I was a Breen with FZ., Bass, and Zomba, and we came up with a smiley mechanism that at first Rox implied was against the rules but later she said it was OK for us to use. It backfired in the end, but I died so I wasn't able to influence it. I thought that once my teammates outed themselves that we should have broken the pact and voted them. :P Nonetheless, I was willing to give Bass a one-day pass and see how it went from there... but I died.
