You shouldn't count on anybody to do your scumhunting for you. Only you can do that.

And never fake claim a role you don't have as town ever again. Just, don't.

It was a very nice flavor, but I really didn't like the fact that IC could vote and play :(
Noted. We were having a discussion about Beginner Mafia and ICing. The problem is that ICs tend to be distracted away from games if they aren't involved.

I know it's probably tough on you newbies, but it's also a step into more advanced Mafia. What part did you not like the most, or how could it have been better otherwise?

Posting to follow discussion on ICs.

I'm not sure about my feelings on it now myself.  We might need to do a few more test runs before we have more solid data, or a lot more information on personal experiences.

I realise I was lurking pretty heavily at LYLO, and I do think I could have done better. This was rather a disappointment compared to the last one.

The thing is, I think I'm more okay with attacking and being around a whole bunch of experienced players than I am with playing ICs. It's mainly because I still see them as my mentor, and I kinda slip into this deferential mindset.
I found it difficult to build a case on any of them, because I didn't want to lynch the teachers (who were definitely the most valuable players). If they were to be treated more like normal players, or had the opportunity to carry on teaching regardless of what had happened, maybe I'd have been more willing in my advances against them.
