[COLOR="green"]Yes, I agree, the game was very mafia aligned. even Alex himself admitted he thinks he failed a bit at balancing this, but I can't blame him, he's more used to mostly vanilla townie games.
I mean we had 2 mafia aligned neutrals, one which could be recruited, 5 members of the mafia (one of which could dodge a lynch and had secret doublevote if Batman died), and 2 townie power roles couldn't act until night 2, and 2 members of the town became inactive after their roles became useless (Jon and Blaine). Town had very little chances to win. I mean, look at the outcomes. There were only 2 mislynches in the whole game, out of 3 lynches total, plus the mafia killed someone aligned with them at night, and the town still got wiped.
However, I have to admit, to everyone in the mafia, you need to take a lesson from Brandon. When I called out the roleclaim on the day that Swerve died, Pie's D.A.V.E. claim and Meta's "obligatory female henchman" claims were pretty obvious as fake. Shidoshi didn't even claim either. Brandon's was actually more believable, because he chose a famous villain.
But yes, it was a fun and long game due to all the flavor, the chosen material, and people like Swerve. It's a shame that I ended up already dead, since by the time I set off the wordbomb, I had managed to solve that Pie had to be the GF, and that Shidoshi and Meta were most likely mafia. Brandon also asked me why I didn't start a lynch on Corn after I knew he was recruited, and the simple answer was that I didn't think he'd be a perma-member. I thought killing Batman would turn her back to her life of crime or something, but no, he had to be a full member from then on. I seriously wanna see what me and Brandon would do if we ended up on the same mafia team, cause holy balls we would wreck some pomegranate up, since, as Brandon put it, I am the L to his Light, always knowing what the other is planning.
And to Mephisto, two things:
1. Yes, wordbomber sucks hard. Now imagine trying to win as a neutral with that.
2. The game is over because it would have headed into the night phase. Batman had a kill he could use, and I was going to die tomorrow from poison, which made me unable to post either, leaving the town at 3 members that could actually vote. Game was long gone.[/COLOR]
