Damn hard, webadict lost.
I blame dakarian, for letting me not lynch who I wanted to initially: That Vector.

Personally, I wouldn't have another beginners mafia. This was anything but 'beginners' and was probably harder then most paranormal games  :D

If I'm not mistaken, most of the players were virgins to forum mafia, but had played a few live games.

I thought it served its purpose quite well. It introduced new blood to the mafia games. I would support a Beginners II.

I don't know.  Duke wants me to stop playing mafia.
That's the sign of an abusive boyfriend, Toony... you don't have to listen to him.

I meant beginners as in easy, that this wasn't suited for first-timers.

Im pretty sure nobody wanted it to be easy. I think its great to start playing with a really tough and analytical game.

"Ok, new recruits.  Instead of training you guys to be strong warriors we're going to strap bombs to you and make you run at the enemies screaming.  Any questions?"

I think that the lack of a cop really contributed to that: Nobody could come out and say "They are scum" or "They are town", because nobody had any way to know. A cop investigating Vector N1 (and he was an obvious target for that) would have cut away most of the drama and likely turned D2 into a quick Vector-lynch. Instead, there was a lot of debate, analysis, and pleas for mercy, which (from the outside) seemed to really contribute to everyone's fun.

With luck, these will start introducing a new batch of people who aren't afraid to really dig in and figure things out from behavior alone.

I'd just like everyone to know that this only lends credit to my theory that states if I say "So-and-so" is scum, they are scum. This only works for the first person though.

I've been following this thread since it started, just to see how things turned out and I have to say WOW!   You guys really can spew some amazing walls of text!  ;D

Still, I look forward to seeing all of the new people in other mafias around the boards.

This game is a good candidate for the hardest mafia on the forum (judging by post count, assuming post count is an accurate metric for the amount of thinking that was done). There are a lot of comparable ones, but none with so few players.

Goddammit you two were dirty, sneaky bastards. I was completely fooled, right up until my demise. And even then, Vector still evaded all my suspicion. Great job, mafiosos.

Uggh, I don't think I can play another one of these. It was way too stressful. Beginner's Mafia my ass, this thing kept me up all night every night worrying to death. If it wasn't webadict jumping down my throat it was dakarian jumping down my throat ALL FUCKING DAY LONG YOU FUCKING ASSWIPE to Free Beer jumping down my throat, marginalizing all my arguments, accusing me of being incoherent, etc. etc., and nobody listening to me because I was top scum pick. Ick.

Not again. Are other mafias this stressful? If they are, I'm staying away from them with a twenty foot pole.

Me? Jumping down your throat? You wish.

I wonder what would've happened had people listened to me...?
