I find it surprising that this deep into playing and Oredigger hasn't realized that Looking Town is just as important (if not moreso) as Finding Scum.

Mrs McGinty is saying stuff that I've been saying for years. Maybe I should try a game over there, where ever there is.

storyteller,
did you ever give The Alien a cover PM?

storyteller, did you ever give The Alien a cover PM? No. She asked. Do you think I should have? |

Hey guys,
Yeah, I knew that leaving was my best option. I thought about leaving immediately when the votes were piling on, without showing my role PM, but I figured showing it would get people to talk more and maybe help the town in the end, and honestly I had a small (very very small) glimmer of hope that people would see the light. But with the role I had, I think it was inevitable that I would be asked to leave, I had no useful ability and I would have been a distraction.
About the PIS, ugh, I have no freaking idea how that happened. I never did such a thing in perhaps 25-30 mafia games. As soon as Guiri reported it I was all "Fork me!" (Is swearing is allowed here?! ;D). I knew immediately that my chances of survival were very slim.
Well, anyway, thanks for the game storyteller. I'll be around for sure, the amount of activity is better than anywhere I've played and I keep bitching about lurkers and low activity players, so yeah, I'll definitely play again with your bunch. That's if you will have me after my screwup. ;D

Rominac, we have tried lynching players for less. Ask Cookies about the difference between 'a' and 'the'  As for how it went, I think you did the best you could given the situation. |

Honestly, I'm a crankypants and I would have just posted the green text and not bothered with explaining or posting the role PM. Especially when several people voted for Romantic AFTER someone pointed out that there was no T. That sort of stuff pisses me off.

Forcing her to claim is forcing her to channel storyteller, which isn't the point. Though, it seems that even if someone has a OM that 'sounds like storyteller' they are happy to lynch anyway. I guess what I'm saying is making Cookies write a believable fake claim is somewhat out of the scope of the game, which is why you supplied scum with a fake claims. |

I had a small (very very small) glimmer of hope that people would see the light. A few player's did see the writing on the wall. The role very much did come from the endgame of Simpletown where someone (Town) got himself mod-killed on purpose to leverage an advantage. That so many were willing to ignore the blatant fact that I outright said it would make for a good power might tell you something about their alignment. But I guess that was nearly everyone  |

But I guess that was nearly everyone I'm not sure it's public knowledge that you were involved in the creation of this game. Although I haven't made any point of hiding it, and I think I mentioned it specifically in the LOTR spoiled forum, so your point kind of stands. OK, I'll write Cookies a fake claim. How about something related to her role - like an Alien Hunter? |

I could go either way. Alien Hunter could fit well since there will be evidence of an Alien at some point. That should buy Cookies time through mid-game. However, she will paint herself into a corner as she nears endgame since there will be ample evidence of Alien activity but no Alien. At that point I think the conclusion that Cookies is the Alien would be evident.
Non-alien related fake PM would be safest for Cookies. Alien-related has a higher degree of difficulty. If I were given Alien Hunter, I'd probably edit it to be Crocodile Hunter or something innocuous like that.

Am I the only one that finds it extremely amusing that peeker's scum tell is that he's more reasonable/less crazy as scum than town?
