What's mylo?

Mislynch and lose. Up by two over the scum, lynch town, and the scum kill ties the numbers and wins the game. Possible for the Town to still end up in LyLo if the night kill fails.

Wherein my question still stands.
How in the world can that be MyLo? It was LYLO through and through, unless the scumteam decides to NOT kill.

Scum team deciding not to kill isn't the only NK-fail scenario. Picking a target protected by the doctor, Bulletproof, et cetera. Some games I've played, the NK can be stopped by a roleblock, but that's very rare, and swingy.

[Tiruin]

...You do know that when you mentioned that, the only Doctor was dead, yes? As in, its a setup of 2 scum: 1 Town cop + 2 Vanilla town, right? :/

Unless you were intentionally misleading?

[Persus13]

Tiruin the game's over you scum.

[Tiruin]

I'm just trying to correct an error >_>

[makeinu]

Yeah. I didn't know that, tho, but it still wasn't MyLo anyway, since it was 3:2.

Still learning new slang.

[makeinu]

Tiruin the game's over you scum.

Baleted...

[makeinu]

Sorry, I just wanted to use that. 

[Imp]

Thanks for the really nice things some of you said about me!

[Imp] had characteristics which resembles scumhunting.

...That's gotta be the second best compliment I've had yet because of any Mafia game    Vote Tiruin and Pufferfish for giving me warm fuzzies....

... But Persus13 gets the big prize, for this Scumchat comment...

Tiruin (reply 11):

"Ok I shouldn't be asking but I'll ask.  Why SBC?"

Perses (reply 12):

"He seemed like a good player, although he didn't vote any scum last game. Maybe Imp would be a better target."

Yessss..... wow Persus!  You seem to think a lot of me, in a game I wasn't even an active player in 

[Imp]

I'm really in favor of this.

Uh, it's hard to scum hunt with super short days. I'd say to make it a bit longer, and an upwards of two weeks.

Timezone difference + idea of lurking as a valid tactic over most conventional ideas (difference being No night, and rapid pace play)

It would hardly be a Sprint then would it? There are plenty of other mafia game modes where you play for longer stretches. If I was a player I'd have pushed for a Tiruin lynch simply for her low-suspicion count. The last person to vote is worthy of suspicion.

Also, this would have gone quite differently if Luke hadn't been so suicidal and both roles had claimed before letting themselves get lynched. Usually town players have slightly more self-preservation.

On more reflection, I think one of the best possible feelings to leave a newbie Mafia game with is 'wanting more'.  I suspect that sprint Mafia games, though differently intimidating than the longer sort (and I hope not going to replace them entire) have a lot to offer most newbies, and that includes a desire for 'more' in that urge to want more time to scumhunt and talk things over.  I suspect too, that being so extremely short, players may feel less invested in the game, and less attached to if they win or not - thus maybe less upset if they lose - either as Town or Mafia.  Dunno!  But that's my thoughts.

[Luke_Prowler]

For those of you wondering, I voted myself because I wanted to see how would tell me to unvote, under the assumption of those who cared would be Town (Which looking back wa obviously not the case). I was going to unvote sooner, but unfortunately at the time I was having a horrible sleep cycle, and when I tried to get a nap ended up sleeping for about 14 hours and like an idiot left the computer on.

[Leafsnail]

makeinu's description of mylo is incorrect.  It means that if the town lynches wrongly they lose, but they can still vote for No Lynch.  In this situation there's no hard and fast rule about whether you should claim as the cop - it would probably be worthwhile to if you knew the identity of a mafia member.
