Second I would like to say, that, while I really enjoy Mafia, it's very hard on me, like Chaos I find it hard to insult anybody, unless I'm angry at them, (which is ridiculously rare, but it does happen) or it's in a game setting, even then it's a bit on the hard side. So I might be taking a break before I do any more, it wears me out a bit emotionally.
Mafia is a game of observation and intuition and analysis. It's not even about the insults, and the insults only come from hostile posturing to get what you want out of another player.
It's not about the goddamn insults.
Third, I was wondering if the IC(s), mod and/or any of the experienced watchers could give an analyzation of my play. I really want to know how well I did and any flaws I need to correct.
You did well.
Just don't overdo the FoSes. It's a common mistake that new players make, because they know they have to look like they're scumhunting, but it's difficult for them to lie and accuse and vote somebody of being scum when they know they're not, so instead, they FoS them, because it's a weaker, less aggressive gesture. It's something that takes a few games as scum to get over. I mean, really, it's pretty much just a matter of experience.
Because if you hadn't done your FoS at lylo, then I would've been completely blind to even the idea of you being scum.
And finally, would you recommend that I do another BM, or do you think that I'm ready for a full game?
I'd say you're ready.
Going in to games with more experienced players, just keep in mind that since you're still inexperienced, you will make mistakes that you don't know you're making and get in hot water because of it. Don't worry about it too much. Just remember that you're learning.
Request Player Analysis
You'll do good once you get some experience under your belt. You're active, you're obviously interested, you're aggressive. Now all you need to do is learn what makes a player scum. That comes with experience, so go out there and get it, tiger!
I think some of your attacks were off base, but I didn't give you too much crap about it because I don't like shutting new players down if they're busy being active and aggressive, despite being mistaken about the basis of their attacks. Usually it takes a game or two for a player's scum radar to get pointed in the same general direction as everybody else's, even if it's still not perfectly tuned yet.
I, uh, hope this satisfies you. I don't know if you wanted a more in depth analysis or not. I think you did well.
Losses =/= failure for Beginner's Mafias. The whole point is to learn and give you that critical mafia experience.
