Advice.
Yeah, I know, I sucked pretty bad.  Hopefully some more non beginner games should help with that.  I don't know...this game felt different than say paranormal or sorcerer's apprentice.  Hopefully I'll learn more from seeing the better players play.
Oh, and KaminaSquirtle: tone down the attitude.  It may have won the game for you right now, but it will hold you back significantly very, very soon.  The other thing it will do is give you victories that no one will celebrate with you.
Yeah, you're right.  I guess I was just really relived to see that we won, I was really worried there.  But I see what you mean.  I'm glad this game is over, so I can focus on others.  I want to start fresh.
As for the quality of the game, it seemed like it was too easy of a victory. Yes, I was terrified of being lynched at the end, but we were allowed to squirm out of it. I messed up a few times with my posts, leaving a tell here and there, but no one caught on because the focus was (thankfully) on someone else. I'm pretty sure Kamina and I both would have been torn apart by day 3, or maybe even day 2 in any other game than a beginner's.

But, overall a good game and a good learning experience.
I know I should have been completely torn into.  I don't even want to know what the better players would do to my beginning of Day 3 post.  It just doesn't feel like a real victory to me, we got off on a cheap trick.

Eh, only things that bothered me were that I not only told you what to do so you could win, but the fact that Flintus didn't make his own vote on the suspicion it would happen. I also seriously regret outing as Doc. I figured the scum had gotten wise to me in day 1, which would imply a certain capacity for observation, and in turn imply it couldn't have been the two lurkers. Never even guessed I was randomly RB'd. >.>

Extra credit to Mindmaker, who sent me PMs and asked me specific questions--I'm still sorry I never got around to that second one, because I was really glad to see you sending them.

...for some reason, I didn't even think to do so. Ah, well. Even if it was a bad game, I still enjoyed a good deal of it. Just wish I hadn't contributed to such an unsatisfying ending. -_-

Are you open for questions any time or just for beginner's games?

I'm "officially" open for questions only for this game, but I often handle specific situational stuff on the side.  So, general questions of "how can I improve in this game" will just get you a glare and some snarky comments, but something like "I'm scum and I launched an attack on this guy, but I'm running out of steam and I don't know what to do" is fine.

I could probably TownIC next BM as well, though.

Though uh town IC's shouldn't you guys be like evaluating and telling us what to do next time ect?

I'm going to be rude here, for a moment.  Please forgive me.

I'm glad to be your IC but uh Flintus10 shouldn't you be like asking that with a more polite turn of phrase or something ect?

[/bitch]

This is the rudest you get, Vector?

Yeah I mean two scum lurkers who were replaced kinda blows, I hope Bayer at least tried to keep Ragnarok and Spade in the game.

Still I enjoyed it and I will try to be more decisive next time I think I let Ragnarok obvious active lurking go too easy. Though uh town IC's shouldn't you guys be like evaluating and telling us what to do next time ect?

Did what I could, mates.

Native and Kamina did well enough. I wasn't going to tell them to do anything, and they had the basics, so I really did very little in the scumchat.

"NO!"
