I disagree with Chaore regarding "Alex was irritatingly bad confirmed town". I've kept reading the game after my modkill and found Alex to be rather agreeable. Like I expressed, most of the game went to "how to have optimal play", a discussion that left me apathetic since game strategies aren't to be discussed in the game itself, as far as I'm concerned.
I owe the entiriety of town an apology for electing to suicide, but as Carthrat mentioned, well. I felt Serpentarius was town, indeed. But I also thought UK was town by then, because the aggressive, attention-garnering strategy seemed completely off for scum, especially because I assumed the easiest way to win was to have town kill town until scum outnumbered.
But I digress. At the time I honestly wanted to see UK die because she vexed me greatly, and then I chose the easy way out and pretend the game was irrelevant. For that, I owe my apologies, although I admit I would not have been able to predict any scum teams.
To Pesco: you asked me early in the thread to "admit" I was angry you had chosen to challenge me on my first gamepost.

Let me clear up that that was not the case; I truly was more annoyed by people agreeing than I was annoyed with you doing it in the first place. When you declared it, I thought it was a jest. When UK threatened to challenge you if you didn't follow up on it, I threw my hands up yelling
OH DESWHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN!
I still don't buy into warm fuzzy feelings.

I'd just like to say that the game was unbalanced indeed. Scum being able to sit back and watch town kill itself and having a vig role to destroy the
single useful power role town had was uhhhh what.
Sending messages is useless. I had wanted to argue, "Why would Carthrat give such a useless power to scum? It can only be malignantly used!" and it seems that I was right not to argue that. :p
(for those wondering, if the mod deposited the message as, "During the night, a notice was hammered to your door: "msg"." then it can be abused by pretending you're an event or NPC faction or whatever and clear/accuse people. I felt this power did not serve town, any thought pro-town enough to be said should be said in the open)
The lynch thing was a null read and I am a bit confused why whoever had the same role did not contest it, given that having the exact same role is suspicious.
Either way, the game was different from normal Mafia; regretably in more ways than one, but let it be known that
I don't dislike anyone over this fiasco. I understand all too well the frustration of being so convinced I've caught scum slipping up and all the others going "derp wrong!".
This is fast becoming a wall of text, but succinct messages and I seem to have a long-standing rivalry where we tend to oppose one-another.
I've taken a liking to reading the adventure text threads here so I'll stick around, maybe join Mafia here again sometime;
