Infinite Jest Mafia - Gouda hands the CIVs a win

Fair point. Hahaha. I just wanted you dead from the game before and got lucky.

Take this for what its worth but that trait is likely to catch up to you at some point as its -EV to carry baggage for civs. The game is the game.

Unless there is a really obvious tonal issue, the D1 votes are generally for weaker players. Doing things which are -EV for civs will start to get you in that bucket.
 
Definitely was a game of clearing civs vs catching mafia. Partly bc of the night mafia hits but also just the way voting worked.

Gooner and Knight really the only two who got got from their voting history.

I have to play the game with two votes (DV7 and Numbers) bagging on me. That's fucking HARD. It's like a two vote handicap EVERY ROUND.

Fair enough. Always looking to improve. Thanks for the advice.
 
I thought you were being funny with it.

FTR, I thought you played a solid game. When I said you were the only player I trusted to be civ, I wasn't joking. I chose to protect you over nonny b/c I was confident you were a civ and I wasn't positive nonny didn't fabricate his claim. Your goal as a vanilla is to make it clear you are with the town. You did that. Well done.

When i got this PM i was like, "whhahahahahahahaaaaaaaaahahahahahhaaaaaaaaaaat?"
 
Eagles' post calling back to the parlay/hammer game was extremely nostalgic. Good memories.

My memory is shit and that confirmed it. I can't believe I didn't print out that game and frame it. Yet, I have zero recollection of ever making eaglez feel like I feel in 90% of mafia games.
 
Thanks for playing everyone. Lot of fun and im pretty passionate about that book so appreciate everyone being really engaged. Only one missed vote all game must be some kind of a record.

Also a record: having an 11-way tie with one vote at one point. wtf was that?

I thought I voted the day I missed it :hides:
 
I realize the last few posts sound like im dogging mako. im not at all. im generally of the opinion that the new guys will be catastrophes. They all played well i thought.

Fuckin' RMP did amazing for his first game. As mafia, I knew he was civ - but I think I would have believed him even if I was a civ. His growth curve was so organic. Day 1, "wtf is happening." By the time he was killed, he sounded like a real player. I would have had a hard time lynching him as a civ.

No offense taken. I enjoyed the hell out of the game and the last few weeks of mafia. Definitely want to get better though so Townie will respect me.

The night ryala and bym got killed sent me to a bad place and I never recovered. I 2nd guessed every thought. The last game I drew that role, I played by the book and it worked nicely. Should have stuck to it.

Dude, Townie will be a top 10 player inside 3 months if he keeps playing. Dude has serious chops.
 
Also, rommy, on your question from Dead Chat: PGOAT was a safe claim.

The safe claims:

Rodney Tine
Johnny Gentle
Calvin Thrust (would've been perfect for Knight if he was full maf)
Lateral Alice Moore
Charles Tavis
Marlon Bain

I feel like im missing one other good one
 
Gg all, stopped following before the very end but numbers did great I thought.
 
Tim! How did you not watch me the night I died?

That watch of Parlay. Yikes. And then confirming the Jman claim when he was the lie detector. I know he had other stuff going on but those were tough. Especially with the lengths he had to go to in order to earn those powers.
