The first dozen or so comments on the scumchat are very insightful, and perhaps should be added to the Dakarian Guide for every newbie to read. Should be required reading for all BM games. Copied here for posterity:

That is great stuff.
Hehehe, thanks.
Actually my first post after that was a genuine, if weak, attempt not to get lynched. Everything after that was genuine cynism though. I really need to cut down on that.
Does anyone know how how to reallocate skillpoints?
I tend to find taking responsibility for the situation helps, because it allows you to ignore the fact that everyone else is mucking around or screwing up. If you think to yourself "It's town's job to win," it's easy to go "Man, town screwed up, this sucks" when they lynch you (or make any mistake, really). If you think "It's
my job to win," it doesn't really matter what everyone else is doing- it's still your job to work with/around it and win.
"They'll be sorry after the fact" is really pretty poisonous to getting anything done.
Doesn't mean you can't do both. Or all three of them, in your case. Training never hurt anybody. Unless it did. Then it hurt them.
Oh god no. Mafia is not one of those games that you can do a lot of games at once; it's really easy to get bogged down, confused, or just blurred due to conflicting actions, statements, and so on. Even if you don't get outright confused, having the same person in both games or trying to keep track of two trains of developments can wreak havoc on your instinct.
BM games are certainly more lightweight than others, though, so it's a bit better than three normal games.
