    And I wasn't even killed by the thrall! Terrible vigs are terrible. Still can't believe the network just left Darian alone.

    Also, I think the last 3 games I have played I was evil with B:L. How am I supposed to kill him when he is on my team?

    Great job on the infilration man. Also gotta give props to my mafia, except warban, you all kept REALLY active for 13 days.

    edit: not to say I didn't like you on my team warban, just that you were the only innactive and I see your reasons, so no worries :P

    Was kinda fun playing against the insane amount of permanent vig's that AF threw at us.
    Ok, AF, can you explain to me how they were "balanced", cause I'm not seeing it.

    Also AoR, seriously man? We handed you a victory and you almost didn't take it. ALWAYS play to your win condition. That is the only thing that matters. But thanks for saving Darian, since I think he would have had to go otherwise.

    Props to Shalmelo for keeping the haiku up all game. I was 90% you were a villager, but didn't want to kill you and have people look twice at my rainbows.

    So how did that come off to you guys anyway? I had fun posting in rainbows and early game when it took me 5 to 15 minutes to write each post, it kept me from pulling my usually "post too much and get killed" which happens usually by about day 3 or 4 regardless of what side I am on.

    I think this may be the first time I have survived a main.
    Longest I have survived in any game period (13 days).
    Most obscene use of rainbows.
    Also I don't know if I have survived a game as mafia even in a mini, but I'd have to check my spreadsheet on that.

    Thanks for the game AF, it was a good homecoming. I may stick around for games from time to time, as I forgot how much I love phalla.

    Would've given the B:L role a different ability. Either a permanent vig, roleblock, seer, or busdriver..

    I'd like to think I did all I could with my role, as I let Infidel and Phyphor both know that I was a miller, and I let Phyphor know pretty early on in the game. It kinda sucks being a miller, I now can certainly empathize with everyone in the past who was one. It's like "Hey, you, yeah, you, the player with this role? No one will ever trust you. Ever. Yay!" :(

    From my perspective, it was more about the network infiltration. There was a pretty severe case of sheeping in the last half of the game, so the corrupted network just kept naming bad targets day after day and people rolled with it.

    Not that I can blame the network for getting compromised. Having a thrall with a village-colored kill is pretty much a game breaker.

    Naw man, you were doing pretty well. I was just being over the top evil. I just got bolder each day I was alive. I was like fukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk when I found out you were the guard cause I thought that would blow back on me. When it didn't I tried to vote you out a 4th time. >.>

    Then when you died mid day... i thought for sure fiaryn was going to kill me for pushing so hard on a guard.

    I am really curious about something.

    Few nights ago I was hit by femme fatale (the night that thorgot was voted out). I expected this to be followed up upon, and either be a prime vote target, being contacted by the vigilante, something.

    But nothing happened whatsoever. The network even didn't talk about from what we could gleam.

    Thank you for hosting, advent.

    That said, I'm sorry to say this was not a great effort. Very low on village specials does not make up for mafia having 4 specials, one of them a gamebreaker, even if mafia % was slightly on the low side. Speaking of the gamebreaker, thrall vig is pretty awful, getting narration confirmed that their kill is supposed to be a certain way. The issue with thinking 'Burnage vig? EVIL. FUCK WHAT HE'S SEERED AS' is that you had various other headscratching role decisions like B:L being a Half-Vig instead of a Guard or Reflection as a post restricter instead of someone out to screw his own faction, so we did not have high confidence in predicting what a given role was suppose to have.

    Having to add a random chance vig mid-game? Poor form. Hell, mechanics aside, limited fluff on most roles in a Phalla Phalla? Also poor form.

    As Reflection, yes I had the post/ava restriction. I initially targeted twins or anyone who was all using the same avatar in order to break things up, until Kay entered. I targeted him on Day 3 and I'm still frankly pissed that, in reaction, he decided it was cool to just NOT POST all day and eat a day of inactivity. ffffffffffff tolerant inactive policy. I targeted Soda on Day 4 and, quite frankly, if I hadn't died that night I would have pointed out that you failed the restriction at one point the next day and had you killed.

    (And after I died, village went downhill. =p)

    Also, various specials, you are terrible for either never contacting Infidel early or not even using your powers ever. Just terrible.

    EDIT: Just wanted to say again, thanks for hosting advent. I did have fun while I was here.

    Even though B:L was seer'd around day 6, the info didn't really start flowing in right away. There was no proboard type thing going on for the village network (I think), so the infiltration only got us the seer that hit B:L and a guard.

    It wasn't until the seer hit thorgot and "confirmed" b:l that we started getting more info.

    REG, can you explain this to me though. I was being serious when I said that no one should contact you. Despite the fact taht b:l was on our team and a thrall (usually rare), he was at least confirmed, while you (even though you HAD been in with infy, were not confirmed at all to the village). Why anyone pm'd you that wasn't already aware of who you were was a mystery to me.

    We never used the village-colored kill to our advantage. For all the network knew, I was just a villager.

    Oh yeah, I forgot a personal thank you to the RNG for putting me in yet another broken role/mafia. Never gotten to be a mafia roleblocker before. That was fun. I especially liked the time we kept T_R roleblocked FOR DAYS because one night he was guarded and we were like thinking the Mason reveal was a bluff. WHY WOULD YOU GUARD A MASON? Then when T_A revealed as the busdriver, we AGAIN thought it was a bluff to get the roleblock off T_R, who we were convinced was something like their seer.

    Turns out it was just a bunch of incompetent specials that didn't contact infidel after he gave the village 3 mafia and a SK. Although it is rare for people to come back from the dead different (especially with all the clarifications that AF made about the reselection).... it was quite simply worth the risk. The village specials didn't work together nearly as well as they should have.

    Also, AF, looking at TT's pm, I think it was your fault that the mech seer wasn't used more. To me it didn't read clearly as "mech seer" from first glance. I could see why he thought it was useless since it implied there was a chance for it to fail. That being said, a mech seer should have won this game for the village with a solid network, some rolecalling, creative questions, and the name seer.

    I am Thinking of running a newbie based miniphalla.

    I am looking for anywhere from 1-3 cohosts.

    This will be a mini, or even a series of mini's geared to helping teach new players the finer points of Phalla, as well as the finer points of fucking your friends over without actually losing friendship.


    Any Vets who would be interested in helping me with this, please PM me.

    Any newbies interested, just keep your eyes open onto the boards and the signup thread.

    You did near the end of the day. You had a one line rainbow post and didn't mention being on fire.

    If TT had been non-terrible and at least told Infidel that he had an ability instead of just being quiet, I could have directed questions to him and gotten some results.

    Lol, check this out from our proboard:

    Day 1, my 2nd post on the board:

    "We should divy up the cover roles now so no one claims the same one.

    I'm trying to decide if I should stick with the post restriction once the game officially starts or not, but I think the main problem will be justifying why I am doing it.

    It might make me look like spectrum (since he made up a post restriction), but I'm sure he'll be a role in here somewhere. (If I was a betting man I'd say special and mechanic seer)

    God I hope there isn't a mech seer. "
