    Yay Phallary! Though after kime was outed I totally should have contacted him and revealed as the SK to the mafia. That was probably my biggest mistake. I don't think the village really suspected me as anything but a survival neutral, but I may be wrong.

    And actually, yes, I played a bit dumb. In the beginning of the game, I revealed as a survival player to jdarksun, TRV, and Mr.T. Specifically, I claimed a survival neutral, and that I needed Phallary Clinton to also survive. Secretly, I simply needed not to kill her myself. Which is why I asked those three to put me in contact with Phallary should they happen across her. Of course, Phallary being most likely mafia tripped warning bells in MrT's head, which is why he put up the giant post asking Phallary to contact him.

    What's more, I was vote immune until I was seered. Even more reason to have contacted the mafia and tried to get them to not kill me - again, main mistake on my part. Note that night 2 I actually targeted Obifett, but I guess either he was guarded or had some sort of natural block or I was roleblocked.

    I object to various elements of the construction of this Phalla. Needed more Blue Dogs and less Clinton psychodrama.

    Grumble.

    Self-righteousness is incompatible with coalition building.

    I liked this game some.
    Not as much as Monster phalla but it was OK.
    I think I like more crazy games as I go along.
    Watch out!

    I guarded Obi night 2.

    Good game all around, but hat's off to you mafia-types. SeGaTai was the only one I even remotely suspected at the time of my death, even till now. Surprised I caught attention from both sides, TBH.

    TRV, you totally had us fooled with the 'where's the vig?' talk. You'll probably get a kick out of the last couple days of mafia boards analysis.

    Oh I read through it already haha. I was curious as to whether or not ANYBODY was buying it!

    Our theory was that you were the seer, and didn't announce anything until you found the guard. Close enough *shrug*

    I'm serious.
    After Monster phalla, I pulled back a bit from craziness but I think that players & myself like more non-normal stuff.
    Let others run vanilla games.
    I think I may have just jumped off the edge!

    Speaking of crazy games: borderlands phalla im working on gives 2nd place in votes the chance to open a loot chest. Doing so wipes your current skillset, but you can, if super lucky, get three powers! Think it would work? Or is it too dumb/broken

    Why did you vote out kilnaga and vig me after I showed we couldn't handle a villager death in either of them and it was obvious kilnaga and me weren't aligned?

    and did you really think I was mafia because my main suspects happened to be network? How the hell could I have known as mafia?

    Reading the roles list, that guard role combined with a network could have gotten pretty ugly pretty quickly. Being able to either confirm a villager or kill a mafia every day? Not at all broken

    Only the mafia and yourself voted out Kilnaga. Zombie Hero had vote manip.

    Ah, looks like some more stuff did happen late in the day.

    Anyways, double mafia kill is really harsh in a mini. Giving mafia a +3 vote manip+guard on top of that is ridiculous.
    Spoit is right that if the guard and vig combined the vigseer would have been a great village tool, except mafia did have a guard.

    Thanks for hosting stever

    The observation was made that you were more talky than usual, and that it may be you trying to not look suspicious. Like I said, my aim was terrible. I don't think I managed to vig a mafia the whole game :(

    Thank you for running this, stever.

    The mafia got lucky with the early deaths of a lot of specials. Also there were no voting records really so there wasn't a whole lot for village non-specials to work with. I'm glad i wasn't one, because i still rely on vote records more than i do softnetworking by far.

    My vote manip power was dampened by the existence of the chair position, so we couldn't do anything really swingy. I thought it was a good power level, and was only able to use it twice (although they were home runs when it did go off).

    Don't most games have a seer & a guard?

    I just looked at it. The issue is "this will not protect non-villagers." See, the main downside of vigging people is that you have friendly fire. But if the vig and guard both target the same person, then it's win-win.

    The person lives? They are a villager, essentially seered and confirmed.

    The person dies? They are a non-villager, probably mafia.
