I believe that in a Forums based Mafia setting more information is almost always better than less.  I thus believe that 95% of complaints about 'Walls' derive from laziness as opposed to honest worries about thread clutter.

| Newbie 912
| jahudo
| Vanilla Town
| Loss (Perfect Scum Victory)
| Nightkilled Night 1
| First game here. Tagged one of the scum as my strongest scum read, but lurking and personality conflicts allowed him to skate by as I was then ruthlessly NKed.
|-
| Newbie 914
| bird1111
| Vanilla Town
| Win (Victory in Lylo, Day 4)
| Nightkilled Night 3
| Replaced in late Day 1.  Generally nice batch of active players.  Intersting decision by Cop (role-claim Day 1 not at L-1 and investigating the player the Mafia killed on Night 1) drug this out longer than it should have gone.
|-
| Mini 937 - Mafia on Death Row
| DeathRowKitty
| Vanilla Town
| Loss (Mafia Win Day 4)
| Nightkilled Night 1
| Noteable that three players each claimed One Shot Vigilante - one was Vanilla, one was a full Vig and one was a Mafia Goon.
|-
| Newbie 927 - FrEeky Town
| MyMilkedEel
| Vanilla Town
| Loss (Mafia Win Night 4 LYLO)
| Lynched Day 4
| I played a horrible game Day 4.  I got in too deep with too many games and couldn't bring myself to try to make a case against Sotty.  I knew she was the last scum but her game had been so Pro-town it was a massive uphill battle.
|-
| Mini 938 - Weeds Mafia
| xRECKONERx
| Conrad Shepard, Business Partner (Two Member Town Neighbor)
| Win (Town Win Day 6)
| Nightkilled Night 5
| Three straight Mafia lynched in LYLO after mass-claims and while I was on a 5 Day cruise.  Yes, three full lynches in under 6 days.
|-
| Mini 948 - Victorian Vampire Mafia
| ElectricBadger
| Gerald the Tailor (Town Weak Vig)
| Loss (Mafia Win Day 4)
| Endgamed
| I went against my personal policy and voted outside of a known (to me anyway) fake-claim in LYLO.  I shouldn't have been checking the thread when I didn't have proper time to reflect and analyze the situation.
|-
| Mini 951 - Prison Mafia
| bigmc109
| Vanilla Town
| Draw - Mod Abandoned and Player Agreed
| Alive at Draw
| This game was kind of a travesty.  The town was so filled with inactivity it made scum-hunting impossible.  The scum were well on their way to a victory when the Mod flaked.  Cudos to vollkan and IdiotKing in particular.  Also, here's an example of Andrius at his absolute worst. :D
|-
| Mini 962 - Mafia in Murrieta
| wolframhart
| Vanilla Town
| Win (Town Win Day 4)
| Nightkilled Night 2
| To be constructed.
|-
| Mini 955 - Classic Mafia
| AlmasterGM
| Doctor
| Loss (Mafia Win Day 3)
| Nightkilled Night 2
| Replaced in Day 2 into a slot which had been inhabited by two seperate lurkers.  The irony.  Was subsequently NKed Night 2.  In my mind I treat this as yet another Night 1 NK.  I collect them.
|-
| Mini 969 - Smalltown: Stardust Mafia
| ooba
| Ditchwater Sal (Town Roleblocker)
| Loss (Mafia Win Day 3)
| Nightkilled (by SK) Night 1
| Not much to say here.  Day 1 we wagonned scum ReaperCharlie (who had 2 lives) to lynch.  I made the key mistake of the game, IMO, when I tried to block Jack due to his horrible attacks on me during the Day.  Had I not blocked him Reaper scum would have been put to rest.  For my troubles the Serial Killer killed me to top off the bad news.
|-
| Kingdom of Loathing Mafia - Themed Large
| Nikanor and DTM
| Boris the Seal Clubber (Town Vigilante)
| Win (Town Win Day 7)
| Nightkilled (by SK) Night 3
| There were no Nightkills the Nights 4,5 and 6 due to well placed Jailkeeping by Midnight's Sorrow and spot on scum-identification by Mr. Sauve.  Proud to have Vigged the Mafian I feel was the lynchpin on Night 3 (Zhero).  MPR's last day posting is worth the read for the laughs.  I nominated Nik and DTM for Paperback Writer for the game and role flavour-text.
|-
| Clash of Kings Mafia - Themed Large
| Faraday and Seacore
| Victarion Greyjoy (Greyjoy Mafia Goon)
| Win (Split with with Lannister Faction Night 8)
| Survived to Endgame.
| An awesome game.  Faraday and Seacore worked in flavor well and had interesting events on several days (a Mob action, a Mod confirmed scan, and a double lynch).  I think I aquitted myself well in surviving to endgame and making it possible for scum to triumph over Town (even if we had to draw to do so).
|-
| Mini 974 - Thrillville Mafia
| animorph
| Lodewijk Alexander - Manager (Mafia Goon)
| Draw (Endgame draw with Town Bulletproof)
| Lynched Day 2
| The mechanics of the game were not well planned.  Town should have waltzed to victory but instead no lynched multiple times in an attempt to POE to the Mafia into oblivion.  It didn't work and had Andrius saved his Execution power for the next day scum would have won.
|-
| Newbie 969
| VP Baltar
| Vanilla Town
| Win (Town Win Day 4 in LYLO)
| Nightkill Night 1
| A fun game.  Very few replacements (and those were basically Day 1) made the game flow nicely.  Overall a very good player group.  FredGarvin gave it his all and made it to LYLO after his obvscum Partner GroupThink was lynched Day 1.  Good decision on his part to NK me as he was at the top of my Day 2 lynch list.
|-
| Mini 989 - Disgaea Mafia Episode 2
| dramonic
| Prizm Red, Ripoff (Vanilla Town)
| Loss (Mafia Victory Day 3)
| Nightkilled (Town Vig) Night 2
| Perfect example of how not to play as a Town.  Too many players committed to their 'style' and too stubborn to see how Anti-Town the mix was. 
|-
| Mini 1000 - The Brave and the Beautiful
| ReaperCharlie
| Rikku - Town Thief / Neighborizor
| Win (Town victory Day 5)
| Lynched Day 4
| Very power heavy game.  Interestingly two of the three Mafia (Furcolow and millar13) were pushed heavily Day 1 and one was eventually lynched.  Heavily detailed flavor by ReaperCharlie.
|-
| Mini 1003
| zang
| Town Jailkeeper
| Win (Town Victory Day 4)
| Survived to Endgame
| An interesting game.  All three Town PRs (Cop, Vig, Jailkeeper) survived to Day 3 where due to claim choices by two remaining scum (Roleblocker and Godfather) PoE identified both scum in three players.  We mislynched the third but NoPoint Vigged his second scum and the Mafia forgot to send in a Nightkill.  We only lynched 1 scum in 4 days but won due to Vig shots N2 and N3.
|-
| Supernatural Mafia - Themed Large
| farside22
| Dean Winchester (Town Hunter / Neighbor) Days 1 to 3, Lucifer (Cult Recruiter) Day 4
| Loss - Either way the Mafia won so I lost
| Nightkilled Nights 2 and 4.
| Let me say it is frustrating as all get-out to be NKed twice in 4 days.  Also, don't get me started on the concept of a bus-driver allowing you to NK yourself. (For record keeping purposes I list this as a Town loss as I started the game Town and spent 66% of my time alive in game as Town).
|-
| Mad World - Time Travel Mafia - Themed Large
| ooba
| Dr. Quest (Town Mason)
| Loss (Mafia Win Night 4)
| Nightkilled Night 1
| An intesting set-up.  There was 1 Mafia with 3 members and a Isolated Traitor Doctor, a Serial Killer with a 1 shot daykill, 1 shot role-block and alternate win option, and an interesting Twist on a survivor role.  Also the Mafia had two kinds of Cop and Town had none.  As usual got killed way too early.  Gandalf - shame on you for failing to protect me.  Game went down to the wire where the Serial Killer missed his last kill and thus the Mafia won a 2-1-1 endgame.
|-
| Open 234 - Vengeful
| Alduskkel
| Vengeful Town
| Loss (Mafia Win Day 2)
| Endgamed
| An increadibly fast game.  I picked out who I thought was the scum-team early Day 1 and steered NoPoint into Vengekilling the Goon (who I thought was the Godfather) Night 1.  Unfortunately Zajnet (who was the other member of my Day 1 team) quick voted me in a Tunneling fashion.  Rather than get a chance to go back and examine X-Scorp I figured I was correct Day 1 as no Town would quickvote like that in LYLO.  Was wrong.  I appreciate that X-Scorp chose to hammer the Zajnet.  One of the shortest and fastest games ever on MS.
|-
| Harry Potter Mafia - Themed Large
| hasdgfas
| Bellatrix Lestrange, Mafia Role-Blocker
| Win (Mafia Victory Day 5)
| Survived to endgame
| Replaced in Night 2 for a scum with about 6 total posts.  Grrr.  Luckily one of my scum-buddies had fake-claimed Dumbledore the ultra-powerful Town JOAT Day 1 and cleared my slot with an 'investigation' Night 1 / Day 2.  That combined with my normal style of play let to the Scum being able to successfully bandwagon a claimed Town Beloved Princess and not get called on it.  Reaper and kmd were great scum-buddies to work with.  I'm particularly proud of my fake- counterclaim in (what Town didn't know was) LYLO that got a Town lurker lynched.  Especially since it was NOT mod provided.
|-
| Mini 1010 - Perpetually MYLO Mafia
| Max
| Town
| Loss (Mafia wins 3 lynches to 1)
| Nightkilled Night 2
| Interesting set-up.  Starts with 7 Town, 5 Scum (all Vanilla / Goon).  First faction to three successful lynches wins.  If Town is lynched scum must sacrifice one of their own.  If scum is lynched they can kill Town of choice.  Killed by the scum faction after I pushed strongly Day 2 for a scum lynch.  A very interesting set-up which could be really competitive with an active, engaged playerbase.
|-
| /invitational Game 8 - Nito City (Mini Normal)
| incognito
| Mafia Goon
| Win (Mafia victory Day 7)
| Survived to endgame
| Survived an early Day 1 scare and earned enough Town cred with a bus of one of my partners I was able to coast for most of the game.  A bad decision on my part to make a fake-claim of Hider almost cost me the game.  Activity was pretty unimpressive for an invitiational game.
|-
| Choose Your Side - A Comedy of Whims (Large Theme)
| SaintKerrigan
| Randal 'Pink' Floyd, 3rd Party
| Loss (Killed as Survivor N1)
| Nightkilled Night 1
| A very interesting set-up where players chose a role-name and side (Town / Mafia / 3rd Party) pre-game and SK developed the game roles based on this.  Yet again killed N1.  I'm compiling a list of players who chose to kill me N1 and doing my best to lynch / kill them as early as possible in a rampage of retribution.  Seraphim and Espeonage this means you :D.  AGM won as Cult on Day 7 after converting Andrius the uber Town traitor and CSL left the game after completeing his Jester duties.
|-
| Mini 1032 - Reboot Mafia
| Nikanor
| Cyrus, Cowardly Double Lyncher (3rd Party)
| Loss (Killed as Modified Suvivor / Lyncher Night 2)
| Nightkilled Night 2
| Nik devised an interesting role in this game ... I was a hybrid Lyncher / Survivor.  In effect I had to get two roles (which I did not know who played them)lynched or killed.  Both roles ended up being Mafia, one of which had a Townie name.  The first was lynched Day 1 for obv-scum play and I got the second to claiming status Day 2.  However I tried to get said 'Townie' name Nightkilled in an attempt to preserve my life.  It didn't work.
|-
| Mini 1039 - Lost: Season One
| xRECKONERx
| Charlie Pace, Vanilla Town
| Loss - Mafia Victory Day 4
| Nightkilled Night 3
| Frustrating experience.  Properly identified lyncher Day 1 and late in Day 2 nailed both remaining scum.  What happened?  Town vigs Dramonic and BloodCovenant ignored my advice and killed a claimed Beloved Princess after a Town Guard flipped.  Then when the Mafia took me down during the funeral BloodCovenant shot Dramonic (who had been driving force for a N1 Mafia Doc vig) and then voted for ObvTown in LYLO so the scum could quickhammer.  Worst Town player I have ever witnessed.
|-
| Mini 1040 - Everyone's a Critic!
| kunkstar7
| Vanilla Town
| Loss - Mafia Victory Day 4
| Nightkilled Night 4
| An interesting premise - a Vig mechanic is randomly assigned at the start of the game and passed each night based on the holders decision.  Makes getting a good Town read as the Vig important.  My early game reads were horrible - I missed out on Stef's scumminess Day 1 and pushed LMP Day 2 based on his play (which was bad, BTW) and a Miller claim when I was guessing the set-up was Mountainous.  I was wrong about that.  Night 2 LMP vigged AntiTown and my subsequent VC Analysis had both remaining scum (NoPoint and Carapuce) in a group of three with perenial VI DocMyShottyisSiK.  LMP handed the Vig to NoPoint after Night 2 and he used it to kill both myself and LMP Night 3.
|-
| Magician's Mafia - The Hypnotists (Large Theme)
| petroleumjelly
| Martyr Magician (Town)
| Loss - (Mafia win Day 8)
| Nightkilled Night 0
| Ellibereth made my personal 'Do Not Play With' list this game.  The game was a 4 Goon scum against a Town with Powers that really didn't help find scum.  Toogeloo made it to endgame based on a good fake-claim.
|-
| Mini 1052 - Personal Agenda Mafia
| q21
| Jester
| Win - Lynched Day 3
| Lynched Day 3
| I'm fairly proud of my effort here.  The game advertised that a Jester was a possible role and not until after I was lynched Day 3 was the concept of myself as Jester even broached.  My personal favorite move was fake-claiming Daycop Day 2 and using it to lynch Exe based on a guilty read.
|-
| Lord of the Rings Mafia - Large Theme - Hydra with SSBF
| Bilbo Baggins (Plum / Andrius)
| Theodred, Vanilla Town
| Win - Town Win Day 5
| Nightkilled Night 1 (Isenguard Mafia)
| A pretty impressive Town overall perfomance.  Town lynched scum successfull 4 of 5 Days (and also would have lynched another scum who was saved by a Governor) and still the game was in doubt due to unique mechanics in the game.  3rd Party Gollum role did Town huge favors by Daykilling multiple scum.  Great game from a standpoint of mechanics (Elven Rings, Palantir) and flavor.
|-
| Gorrad's Favorite Fictional Characters Mafia
| Gorrad
| Phantom Thief 1412, Town Vote Thief
| Win (Town Victory Night 7)
| Nightkilled Night 6 (zomg what took so long) by both Spark and Curry Mafia.
| An interesting Theme game from the standpoint that pretty much any pop culture source could be your role.  I got off to a slow start thanks to perennial VI Chesskid and the real life distractions for the Mod that made Day 1 and Night 1 very long and un-even.  Once things got settled my reads came into better focus.  Will have to look back for my thoughts Day 3 and see how I fared.  I actually enjoyed playing to Day 6 in a Large theme game as Town.
|-
| Secret Invasion Mafia - Mini 1071
| danakillsu
| Longshot - Town Unblockable Bulletproof Doctor
| Loss - Mafia win Day 4
| Lynched Day 3
| Dana did a good job crafting all sorts of crazy, site-meta defying roles.  Scum pulled off quick-lynches Day 2 and Day 3 with no consequences.
|-
| The Return to Liten - Large Theme
| SaintKerrigan
| Evelyn Falconi, AKA "Kestrel", Arkon Goon
| Loss - Town win in LYLO Day 7
| Lynched Day 7
| My first scum loss on Mafiascum.  Town started of very strongly with two lynches of Arkons the first 2 Days.  I later had to bus my last partner based for gameplay reasons.  I managed to claw through several more mislynches but in LYLO I couldn't convince Furry to vote the other way.  By far probably my worst scum game here.  SaintK did a great job once again with the flavor.
|-
| Hydra Mafia - Large Theme
| bv310
| Town Bodyguard
| Loss (Mafia Victory Day 4)
| Nightkilled Night 2
| I started the game with Espeonage as my hydra-mate.  He quite typically flaked and was replaced by Mina.  We were a modified version of the basic bodyguard - for each Townie lynched our Protect had an 33% chance to kill the attacker.  Unfortunately we were directly Night 2 instead of the player we protected (who was Town).  A mass Hydra game is not a good idea.  Read this game to see why.
|-
| Stars Aligned III- Large Theme
| Percy
| Investigator
| Loss
| Lynched Day 2
| Town won this game over the Cult.  I include this as a Town Loss because I was going for the Murderer win condition and was lynched before I could activate 3rd party status and win condition.
|-
| Open 261 - VasudeVa's Vengeful Villa
| VasudeVa
| Mafia Goon
| Loss (Godfather Lynched Day 1)
| Endgamed
| Charter pretty much nailed the Godfather immediately Day 1.  I voted to put him at L-1 and began working on a gambit to secure my lynch and hope the bussing worked.  Alas one of our lurkers hammered Farcry before the gambit could be completed.  You win some you lose some.
|-
| Mini 1077 - LOST: Season 2
| xRECKONERx
| Mr. Eko - Mafia Extended Roleblocker
| Win (Mafia Win Day 3)
| Survived to endgame
| The bastardly Mod mechanics slowly began to increase in this game.  The Hatch Sequence had to be pressed every 108 posts ... and when it failed to happen Town player Gandalf joined Dramonic and I on the scum team.  As a consequence Town was granted a 'SuperCop' ability that Faraday used on me.  But thanks to the oddness of his claim we got Vezok to vote Faraday and the Mafia wagonned to a perfect victory.
|-
| Mini 1083 - Aqua Teen Hunger Force Mafia Game for Forums
| Untrod Tripod
| MC Pee Pants, Town Voter from the Grave
| Win ??? Day 7
| Lynched Day 1 (and in hindsight this was a blessing)
| Untrod is doing a great job of replicating the feel of the show in his flavor postings.  And that's all I will say about him.  Town won Day 7 when Implosion (who apparently didn't know he was scum until Day 6) was lynched.  Untrod has declined to post the set-up, which apparantly was borked beyond reason, so the only players I know for sure were Town are Seacore, Podium and myself and the only Mafia I know for sure was Implosion.
|-
| Mini 1086 - KGB Mafia (Mini Normal)
| LynchMePls
| Mafia Goon
| Victory (Mafia Win Night 3)
| Survived to endgame.
| Replaced in Day 1.  My slot's predecessor was horribly scummy but somehow I skated away from that impression.  After ReaperCharlie replaced in I spent Day 1 and 2 jousting with him about who was scum and then accusing him of being scum.  It was fun.  DGB did a great job as an Isolated Mafia Traitor (who knew myself and Xdaa but we didn't know him) communicating with me in the thread covertly. 
|-
| Mini 1096 - Seinfeld Mafia
| Kdub
| Crazy Joe Davola, Town Watcher
| Loss (Mafia Victory Day 4)
| Survived to endgame
| 8 Townie / 4 Mafia set-up in which the scum had a modified 1-shot suicide / bomb.  One of my worst games on site as Town.  My reads were subpar (only had strong suspicion of 1 of 4 Mafia) and participated in 3 of 4 mislynches.  Bad MoI, no donut for this game.
|-
| Blackest Night Mafia - Large Theme
| danakillsu and ReaperCharlie
| Scar, Black Lantern Bulletproof Recruiter, Cult Leader
| Win (Black Lantern Cult win Day 6)
| Survived to endgame
| An off-hand comment I made in my color choice PMs to the Mods about them working in Black Lanterns into the game led to me getting the Scar role over my Blue / Green main choices.  I think  I played a good game in the face of some increadibly Town powers.  Recruited Town Boyscout Andrius Night 5 to help seal the Victory.
|-
| Cyclic Experiment Set x01 - Large Theme
| The Eruci (aka kunkstar 7)
| Eruci (Town)
| Win (Town Victory Day 6)
| Nightkilled Night 1 (not surprising)
| A followup to kunk's Mini 1040.  Love the mechancis.  Even though I died N1 I'll accept a small portion of the credit for laying out quite clearly the exact method by which to PoE the scum.  IamInnocent did a great job picking up the torch, running with it and keeping the Town organized.  If not for a tactical error shortly after replacing in I think that DGB would have taken it as a Serial Killer.
|-
| Square Enix IV - Large Theme
| kise
| Kuroki Kaze, Vanilla Town
| Loss (Mafia / Survivor Victory Day 5?)
| Nightkilled Night 1 (again, not surprising)
| I like kise as a GM but the set-up I think was borked.  18 players, 2 scum (with three Nightkill a Night), a Bulletproof survivor, no flips on Nightkill and a Town role that blocked all Town night actions when lynched.  The lack of relevant flip information made it impossible to effectively hunt scum.  Furthermore both Town information roles (Tracker and Watcher) were dead by Day 2.
|-
| Mini 1119 - The Might of Mordor (in MasterSpy hydra with Mina)
| Andrius
| Glorfindal, Mafia Rolebocker / Role Cop
| Win (Scum victory Day 5)
| Survived to endgame
| Ongoing - replaced in Day 1.  A rather unlikely win but I will take it.  More thoughts later.  Also, the last time I will hydra.  My playstyle just doesn't mesh well with sharing an account.
|-
| A Storm of Swords Mafia - Large Theme
| Faraday and Seacore
| Edmure Tully, Stark Jailkeeper (Mafia)
| Win (Stark Mafia victory Day 9 in LYLO)
| Killed Night 2
| My habit of being killed early is starting to unfortunately spread to Mafia roles ... lulz.  LMP killed me because he thought I was Town.  Cow rode a faked Post Restriction (Spreads arms wide) and Dayvigging our partner to LYLO where he even extended it to be sure he hammered the only possible Brotherhood without Banners member left.  Great job by Cow.
|-
| Newbie 1071 - As IC
| Robocopter
| Town Doctor
| Loss (Scum victory in LYLO Day 4)
| Nightkilled Night 1.
| Drawing the Doc role as an IC is a pretty big handicap to Town, IMO.  Second time I've been a Doc and second time I've been killed the first Night possible.  Scum played brilliantly Days 1 and 2 and made great kills.  DarlaBlueEyes semi-flaking Day 3 assured that the Town Cop actually got to claim and establish a Confirmed Town for LYLO.  Tough call Day 4 for Mist gave Scum the win.
|-
| Metropolis: Redemption - Mini Theme
| ReaperCharlie
| Citizen of Metropolis - Vanilla Town
| Win - Town Victory Day 5
| Lynched Day 4
| Didn't have great reads this game but the lynch of CooLDoG (the Roleblocker) Day 1 led to a lock-down PoE that the scum couldn't escape.
|-

| Open 293 - Donner Party Take 2
| Magua
| Vanilla Town
| Win - Town Victory Day 4
| Survived to Endgame
| Despite the fact that 2/3rds of the Town powerroles were outed Day 1 and the last one was outed Day 2 spot on Night actions by TwistedSpoon and DeathRowKitty absolutely decimated both the Scum and Serial Killer.  Town Day play pretty much was universally meh but it didn't really matter.

| jasont1981 and I were Goons in a 1 PR set-up.  We drove a mislynch Day 1 on a newbie player.  Night 1 I preplanned a strong bus with jason with the intent of Cop fishing.  After sometime the ploy appeared to work as Jason was counter-claimed and then self-hammered.  I was shocked when Day 3 opened with no-one dead.  I quickly surmised that SpacePope had counterclaimed as a VT and used that to claim Cop myself.  It worked and I kept clean enought that in MYLO town was willing to lynch another player who played a generally more scummmy game.  First Newbie game as Mafia.

'''Modding History''' -
I don't believe in Town-tells.  Doing any specific action in and of itself does not have any alignment bearing.  The game-state and the person taking the action must be assessed as well to determine if the action had solid Town motivations that are much stronger than scum motivations.

[[ReaperCharlie]] wuz here. I am a father of one now too! :) I would also like to add that I'm a big fan of your play and of your playstyle, Magna. I hope you will /pre-in to all of my future modded games; I have already invited you to each and every one in hopes that you'll improve the quality of the game. I love watching you play and I'm glad that you won Rookie of the Year for 2010. Lord knows you deserved it more than anyone else, by a long shot.

Magnaofillusion joined MafiaScum.Net in February of 2010 after having played Forums based Mafia at another site for several years.

I'm a father and work as a CPA.

My Mafia Beliefs -

I believe that in a Forums based Mafia setting more information is almost always better than less. I thus believe that 95% of complaints about 'Walls' derive from laziness as opposed to honest worries about thread clutter.

I don't believe in Town-tells. Doing any specific action in and of itself does not have any alignment bearing. The game-state and the person taking the action must be assessed as well to determine if the action had solid Town motivations that are much stronger than scum motivations.

More to come ...

Interesting Facts Section -
