Yes I agree, I do like the mechanic of needing to eliminate before deadline as it forces people to vote. I didn't notice Somi was suspicious until after seeing his vote on Mak. Knowing that he might not generate reads, at least I could garner a read from his vote. I think we need to try to encourage wagons in the early game. I feel like otherwise the game can be a bit slow without them or without a reason to force scum to choose a wagon over the other. Idk.
Picking up that was damn awesome ran, nice job.

Thanks homie! Good job on towning it up with Mak. The whole town played well. There was plenty of cohesion.

We definitely lucked out hitting the sorcerer D1. Leans the game almost unfairly entirely in towns favor after that.

Vote: Freddino
Boo. You deprived me of an opportunity to pester Madge for a while.


Maven and Fred, why did you eliminate EGW on N1?

Analysis and shout outs later when I get around to it.

I look forward to your analysis. I do think a kill on me was not the greatest option but probably a good second option. Shout outs later as well.

Yep, and especially since Maven was inactive, checking the memorial thread it looks like because of IRL Johns.

But it's why I disagree with Mak on claims, town has a lot of power in this setup so claiming early wasn't a good idea.

We're super lucky scum went for wiform instead of just killing the cop D1 too.

Scums only real option N1 was to aim for bessie. With sorc out you have to get seer as soon as possible.

Yeah the set-up is super swingy. I love it but there's not a way around that if you want 11p and roles that aren't super weak.

And that's why I'm glad we waited for a replacement before ending it.

Who did J pick as their last target out of curiosity?

He chose to let it RNG. It was EGW followed by moody on EGWs death.

Apologies bessie, I misread your excitement and tone as forcing and emulation of your town game but I saw some of it (your town play from miller mafia) during day 2.
Yeah before Somi flip it definitely looks like I could be her Sorc

I think you were great and I wish we'd gotten to play more.

Unfortunate that IRL johns inactivity really put the nail in this game.

You as well! You helped me alley oop on somi. It was such a good elimination and such a good and swift decision for us to fall onto somi. You said you thought I could emulate this, I'm not too sure I could but I was also going for less posting but I'm glad I could get town read / generate reads with less of my posting.

Ouch, so if we decided to save Freddino til d5 and Freddino killed Bessie n3 and J n4 we would've lost.

Leaving it to RNG is a... Questionable choice, but given how inactive they were I doubt their picked target would've been better.

I suspected too, which is why I thought getting a replacement was crucial.

EGW was fun taking your hand to the promised land, good stuff town tapping it in, looking forward to the next one!

Yeah it's one of those things that's just super hard to fake but when I found out you were someone who'd been playing for a decade that definitely turned locktown into "probably town but not 100%"

Yeah as I said out of the hundred+ times it's been run it trends 55/45. I'd be interested in how you can nudge it if you have thoughts. No N0 for the seer is possible but I like town having some starting info.
