Here, catching up.

Here's a scenario where we could lynch peter tomorrow:

Reaver kills VT tonight, leaving Backup Doctor still in play.

We lynch Peter with instructions to shoot Jamie. Backup Doctor activates.

Backup Doctor protects Captain, Reaver kills Backup Doctor.

Final showdown: Captain lynches Reaver all by himself.

Here, catching up.

It's autowin for town, we're just waiting for Reaver to concede.

RIP TEAM REAVER

##CONCEDE

I hope it's fair to do this publicly. I sent a PM to kit/ike prior to posting here. Might as well chat a bit before the flavor. I debated not-conceding, but when I finally got a chance to do the math... yeah it's auto. gg town. sorry for making you wait.

MVP xorxes.

imo there were a few chances for scum... which we blew through crossfire, but overall the massclaim was the strongest play. Back when I was town it was a strong play, and tbh my biggest fear in doing a massclaim was that I'd get reavered and have to play against it. Oh well. I still had fun.

The press rules were actually a lot of fun to try to play with... a couple were a chore, but there was one that was an actual liability by which the reavers could be caught.

also: damn, chaqa had the best game I think I've ever seen him play. wtg man.

I kinda wish I hadn't crossposted with this. That would have been funny if we had all been online at the same time

How was there a rule violation when none of you posted though? Was the rule that you *had* to post something?

I was getting a lot of flak the whole game but I was feeling pretty strongly about this one.

I totally called you being Reaver'd like... Day 2 :D

Yeah good pick. was it because I was the obvious choice n2, or a playstyle?

tbf real life did call me off right about the time I got reavered. work drama is the worst. I was being honest though that the game got a lot less intruiging once we started mechanic-lynching. imo against a massclaim it'd be better for reaver prime to hold recruitment until even LATER. getting placed for better deep threats would probably be worth trading another NK for.

I think the game would have played out differently if bunny hadn't got shot. he was placed pretty well.

I don't know offhand which rule vio you mean, but I can look it up you tell me the dates. I think it was a delayed announcement of the rule vio.

I got all excited thinking you were the assassin, and trying to lynch fox to eliminate a backup doc.

Retrospect (and damo's scan) was not kind to that idea.

GG everyone. Told you I was town.

Teacon, hard luck but good effort.

What were the Reaver posting rules? I'm very keen to know what they were. We had very little luck trying to guess them.

I can post links, but I don't want to step on toes. should we vote to end the game so the godthread can participate?

##NK teacon

Can't you just tell us?

The second one, announced sometime during D4. None of you had posted so far that day. So it was weird that the rule violation was announced way after GM had posted EON, if the violation had happened before EON.

Why the hell not. I won't go as far as banning but temp silence is good to go. Depends on what fetishes the mod team has.

Unfortunately, I think it's time on the forum would be short-lived. So this is insufficient to buy my information.

*its. Jesus, what is wrong with me.

Nothing. Right first time.

I was pretty sure Bunny was a Reaver with all the vagueness and coyness about his commutes.

I do think holding recruits would have been more correct. I said as much - if I was rPrime and not under suspicion, I may not have recruited until Night 4 or 5.

M52 ends with Teacon’s concession.

Town Victory

Thank you all for coming on this adventure with me, and for a first time GM in an inconvenient time zone.

It was a lot of fun, Kit. Lessons learned and there's been far worse first-GMing games (the original Mafia 3 I did had to be scrapped and restarted lol)
