The game would be heavily unbalanced if the Cops had to rely on the town to take out the Dons to win, as the Dons were immune to the actions of the cops. Neither faction of town can meet their wincon if only the Dons remained from each family, so Cops win by default if only one of them is alive against both Dons.

I was unaware of this all game long

Do not share BTSC unless specified. Win when all of The Police and The Don from The Sockfaced Famiglia are dead or arrested, but only if their alive and free family members outnumber those of The Sockfaced Famiglia.

I mean I did not know the Police would win in that 3 person scenario.

But I am also not complaining, just saying I messed up my outlook of the game. It was an adventure and I loved playing in this thing. I'm just glad we at least recovered well enough to identify all the baddies before game's end. It may have taken us a while, but we did it.

Yeah, you all didn't get much of a chance to Don-hunt like Daisy and I were thinking would happen because the cops just wouldn't get lynched.

Daisy and I went through all of the challenges and identified the prisoners we think were crucial to the entire team's success in breaking out of prison. Here is the list. If your name is on it at least once, you are free to wear this banner!

Day 2 - N/A
Day 3 - DharmaHelper, timmer
Day 4 - Long Con

Day 6 - a2thezebra, DharmaHelper, G-Man
Day 7 - a2thezebra, bea, G-Man, juliets, Typhoony
Day 8 - N/A
Day 9 - N/A
Day 10 - N/A
Day 11 - ika, Silverwolf, S~V~S, Typhoony

Congratulations to our prison thugs...

a2thezebra, bea, DharmaHelper, G-Man, ika, juliets, Long Con, Silverwolf, timmer, and Typhoony!!!!

Wear the banner with pride.

I demand to see the prison

Yes, let me do that. The thing is, we removed the main prison yard thread every time we started a new day, and after the Day 5 prison break I cycled out all of the cell BTSC threads as well. The permissions for all of that was a true pain... worth it though. I'll be glad to not have to deal with it, that said.

I'll hop into our hosting area, dump all the prison yard threads back in there, and make it so you all can see. I'll do that now.

That CFD was amazing but it kinda doomed me personally in this game. It caused me to shake up so many of my reads from earlier in the game, and it turned out all of my new ideas were wrong and my old ones were much more on the right track.

Soneji had me fooled the whole time though. If it weren't for those last day shenanigans I was never going to vote for him. Very well played Soneji and the rest of you cops.

You're still wrong.

Well actually I'm usually not a fan. The CFD wasn't the problem in this game though, it was the townies' reads following the CFD. Now they've all seen it before, next time they'll be better prepared.

This is so very true for pretty much everyone but Silverwolf. Silverwolf has incredible instincts. However, I have never seen so many civs be so absolutely wrong and yet 100% they were right as I did in this game. People who usually have outstanding instincts as well. It was almost painful to watch at times.

Also, I have to share my own Slooneji story. Sloonei, you were originally supposed to be the Chief and soneji was supposed to be my Don, but because I flubbed and got Sloonei and soneji mixed up, I had to flip flop your roles because one of the role card messages was read as soon as I sent it. I felt like an idiot.

Yes! I felt so bad... I really wanted to see a civilian (mine) faction win this, but man, you guys were just going after the wrong person every day.

And OMG YES, Slooneji!!!! I came up with that, and I was even happier to see someone else did too. I made fun of her for that for so long.

Regarding private conversations, Daisy and I went back and forth on publicizing the BTSC (both prison and player), but in the end we've decided against sharing it publicly. Sorry to disappoint.

We didn't need him dead to win. I even said as much in the thread in a roundabout way that got the prisoner thinking I was genuine.

As the Warden, I knew he was an original prisoner and therefore not one of the family members. No reason to waste an arrest on him.

Still seems to be darkness. Permissions can be such a pain.

Silverwolf was also very spot on with her reads, loved her passion and feistiness.

My strategy to get paroled:

Be as JJJ as I can possibly be. I'll be honest, on Day 5 I was just going for appearances. I didn't care whether my reads were accurate at all, I just wanted everyone to know exactly who I am and give me the parole with the promise that I'd give the kind of effort that is typical of me.

I'm glad it worked, but I also worried the other prisoners would be annoyed by my post-mania and try to stop me.

Since Sig was searching for the rookie cop and Quin was searching for his lover (Nero) I got them mixed up and we sent Sig and Nero a message saying they were lovers and found each other. Luckily, I realized my mistake before either of them opened it and we deleted the message. Oh, and Quin, I felt so bad for you. Your lover was alive all that time and you just couldn't find each other!

Lol, Epi's reaction, was "Fuck, Jay is a prisoner!"

LOL, yeah, Epi PMed me the moment JJJ started supatowning in the main thread and said something to the effect of "Fuck, JJJ is a prisoner. RIP my team."

Oh no, I realized I have zero fat chances to challenge you. So I buddied you.

Actually, until we broke out of prison, I thought I landed with Diiny in my cell. Which was funny, because Dinny slipped on RYM that he was mislynched. Diiny played hard the first Days on CD-FIVEMOREINITIALS, so I imagined he'd work hard in Prison and Parole duty, too. But yeah, as soon as Day 5 started, I fully realized who I really partnered with.

Plus, I actually had a big schemng plan to pretend I'm Diiny and demand my parole, once prison break would occur... only for the Hosts to enforce the no-hint rule. D'oh.

Can you see it? It should be a subforum under Current Job #2. If not, then I've got more permissions to fix.

Further, if you ISO my posts you should be able to find a detailed spoiler post as well as a few other blurbs that together will tell you about everything in prison.

I'm pretty sure they only told you not to hint at you truly are. There's no rule against hinting that you're somebody you're not.
