It wasn't fear so much as we had broken most people's spirits with our bussing and kills.

Having a new/aggressive player dropped into the middle of the game had the possibility of messing us up and we weren't okay with taking that risk.

You'll have to elaborate on what you liked, I have several different playstyles when I'm actively invested in a game.

[tiloco217]

Biggest thing I liked was that you had a large impact on the game with a minimal amount of posting. I find myself posting a shit ton to even get close.

[tiloco217]

Can we see what was on the bingo board btw?

yeah no the game should have been lost when you voted him

it not being over is what weirded me out

[tiloco217]

Honestly there wasn't much more I could do that last day. I was busy for most of it including the last 7 hours so I couldn't effort tell and there wasn't any content that would get me out of the hole. Should have just not misunderstood my role...

[inDheart]

so what the fuck happened night 3

[tiloco217]

I had a total of one hour of free time today

[Hakulyte]

@Tiloco

What was misunderstood in your role?

[Wayward Vagabond]

probably no kill

[tiloco217]

My save doesn't work on the night I choose the target like I thought. It works the night after

[the sun fan]

A couple things that are not readily obvious

gimmicks of the game are:
1) 15 of the 17 characters were female. "Waifu Emblem" is an alt name of Fire Emblem, so I'd wanted to do this when I got the idea. Libra is in there because he looks like a girl (something Manti found out) and Donnel is in there because he's a fucking boss.

2) The roles were all stuff that has never been used on FFR, or stuff that has been used only a few times. If people realized things like that, Manti's claim of "Roleblocker" looks a lot less good.

Surprised no one really commented on that outside of the wolves in wolfchat.

Wolves were allowed to pick which wolf got what role. This sounds pretty strong in hindsight, and it was really compounded considering the strength of this wolfteam.

I am supremely sad that Anna didn't get more mileage. I think it might be one of the most fun roles I've ever seen, and Tokzic didn't cross any of the squares off after d0, which is a crying shame imo.

Tiloco did in fact misunderstand his role. He saved people on the next day and night phase, not the current one. As such, he was unaware he had a save on inDheart. I pretty much had a moral dilemma between telling him he misunderstood his role or not, I know it basically fucked the game and let Manti do Manti things, but I do think I made the right decision, and I think the onus is on the player to understand their role properly.

Lar's style worked this game, I really don't think that busing your team like that will work for you the more you roll wolf. My advice to you is to realize the limitations of a playstyle that involves heavy busing, especially when you are busing teammates both strong role-wise and skill-wise than yourself.

flashflashaccount was modkilled for talking about his role PM in the neighbor chat. I told him more than once to stop, he kept toeing the line, and I felt like I had no alternatives.

There's probably a few more things that I can't think of right now, will post them later.

[tiloco217]

So I saved ind on the no kill night cause I angeled him the night before

fuck reading the mod

[tiloco217]

You chose right. Telling me basically confirms the save and adds so much angle shooting

[FreezinIce]

So many terrible plays that collectively added up to crush any chance town had of winning

Manti claimed town roleblocker wish is shady to begin with. Then he causes two town deaths after all but guaranteeing a wolf between them. THEN he doesn't get pressured at all for it. Despite indheart having a check on dbp.

Mind boggling. Taste my salt you nerds.

Also check dead people's reads for god sakes
