Rules for Lynch Scum/Wagon Average (shamelessly plagiarized from Mr. Flay):

1. Pro-Town role, or part of a Team Anti-Town Faction where at least one other Anti-Town Faction existed for me to successfully lynch. SKs don't count, because it doesn't matter who they lynch.
2. Vigilante attempts count. So do S-Kills.
3. Getting lynched myself counts as a failure. :(
4. No ongoing games (unless I'm already dead).
5. No Mafia Mutations so distorted that lynching is essentially meaningless: RPS, Unknown Role, etc.)

This game pretty much served to highlight all the fascinating ways a game can screw over an SK role, with the inability to falsely name claim, the inability to kill without a clue getting posted, and no plausible claim in a vanillaless game. Yet somehow I managed to make it one of the most successful games of my career. This is the sort of game that shows that you can never, never give up as scum. Also, it shows how much I really miss duck cooked in honey and garlic (among a laundry list of other things).

Replace into game, peg scum, die Night 1. Three of the four reads I was working with, including the person who got lynched D1, were scum. Not bad for replacing into a game to get the site to move forward from the crash.

The next best thing to actually going to Ireland was getting invited to play with the people who did.  :/ I'm not a huge fan of high-pressure seven-player games, but going from L-1 to winning, especially with some really basic Mafia know-how combating Phillammon's plausibly implausible claim, is a welcome change from recent history.

Surely you've seen theoretical situations where it's best for the scumteams to work together for a joint victory, right? And how claiming scum should be an A-OK gambit to get that kind of mutual victory to work, right? Well, um, that doesn't actually work in practice. I doubt we would have won anyway, but that pretty much drove it in.

Once you took away the Townies getting modkilled and claiming scum, this was actually a really tight game. I'm impressed with how the scumteam did, but losing this one by the vast amount that we did really hurt.

In a break from reality, my team actually won a game AND I didn't even do that badly! I drew Teller - probably my favorite role in the game/flavor - and used the power of QuickTopics to overcome my no-speaking post restriction. I even caught one scum and saved one lynchable Town through QuickTopics! What really saved the game was the group of capable newbie players playing for Town and Mafia, though. I'm pleasantly surprised that I won, but I would have been pleased either way at the competence of this younger generation.

Because this was an Open game, I was able to review this and play in it too. I reviewed it horribly, pushing it to be more Town-sided than it was. Then I drew scum. Then I realized I wasn't going to get help from half of the rest of the team. Then I realized I wasn't going to get help from my hydra. I lasted as long as I could, and then helped kick off the greatest party on mafiascum as nukes inexorably targeted my position. This was truly a game that was better enjoyed when dead, at least from my point of view.

In this game, players could duel each other for fantastic powers (if they won) and a chance to vent personal animosity. This wound up forcibly locking the Town's attention into needless Town-on-Town duels. The scum did well enough to avoid getting dueled, and coasted. As for me, I ignored the duels altogether and simply dayvigged who I thought was scum. I thought I was doing fairly decently due to the Death Miller, and made poor choices in the last Day of the game as a result.

My first game back after another short break. I drew scum, and drew the ire of GreyICE. After getting counterclaimed twice (almost three times), I went down fairly quickly but took the rest of the game with me - the Town self-destructed afterward. It wasn't at all glamorous, but I'll take the win.

Midway through Day 2, the Town was losing in the worst kind of way, so I stepped out of being the silent half of a teaching hydra and started applying myself toward the game. It didn't work; my reads were mostly accurate but I pushed enough wrong lynches that I lost all my credibility. I guess these games happen...

My role was awesome :D and it wasn't even the best one in the game. Then we lynched scum twice in two Days. Then we blazed onward to victo--oh wait. Mass hysteria with nonstandard roles and some unfortunate play by the remaining Townies caused the game to dissolve into senseless panic. More to put into the players' guide...

Out of kindness and boredom I replaced into a game for NS. Apparently I didn't learn from Phables, Appenine, or Serum/Steel; I found out soon afterward that I was coming into the tail end of one of the longest Day 1s onsite. Not helping was that every post was truncated at 160 characters, making ordinary posting habits turn more or less incoherent. My predecessor looked somewhat scummy and I never really got off the hook, but after weeks of having no idea what was going on we were able to barely squeak a win out.

If the first run of this game wasn't enough to convince me that Pie E7 is a terribly cheesy setup, the sequel definitely was. I almost completely locked the game down with a Day 1 massclaim. (Although I was pushing both scum anyway.~) At this point I'm largely responsible for the top two Shortest Days in a Mini Game (quicklynches, in other words) on the Records page.

I drew the most powerful role I have ever gotten, and got recruited by the second-most powerful role I've ever gotten. I almost forgot how to play as something other than Vanilla =p Nailing scum D1 was astonishingly easy in this game, and the Mafia basically fell apart. The problem was that we had to keep the entire cult alive from D2 onward, and we made it somehow. Not having the option to bus was actually kind of refreshing given site meta. And I finally won another game this year! (and I can almost say that it was a Town win!)

A pseudo-invitational game, as you can probably guess from my alignment. Blunders by curiouskarmadog-Town and me-scum canceled each other out, resulting in a very close game. Is it just me, or are most Open games Town-biased? One nice thing about this game is that it was over and done in 8 pages. I've always wanted to play in a short game like that.

This was my last game before going on vacation, and between burnout and being surrounded by newbies it didn't go well. The Town did considerably better than I expected for reasons I'm not sure of, and both scum teams thought I was scum for reasons I can guess. Hopefully this will be the last of the bad Town games.

One of the difficulties of being Town is that you don't know how well you're doing. One of the difficulties of being scum is that you know EXACTLY how well Town is doing. I was actually mostly correct on my reads in this game, but got foiled by some extremely clever claims on the parts of VasudeVa and ElectricBadger. Given what the setup actually turned out to be, I probably shouldn't feel too bad about this one; as it stands, I wonder if I can get a body-of-work Cassandra award.

The game blitzed two of the scum in the first two Days. Then it imploded in the worst way possible. I regret that I was playing my weakest game in a long time and wasn't able to catch Sotty-scum pulling yet another miraculous scum win out. The less said about this game, the better, probably.

This game featured seven scummy players. Four of them were scum. The other three were the ones who got lynched. If you are Town, you must look Town. Otherwise, you are a liability and are dragging your team down.

I'm never scum. Except in invitational games, apparently. This was an astonishingly decent game for me, and a testament to the fact that scum cannot give up hope; there are few truly unwinnable situations for scum - even, say, being caught in LyLo with everything I've said discredited and a Townie who was told by a little bird that I was scum. This was my first game with Albert B. Rampage, and I was suitably impressed - more so than I was with the 3 vs. 3 Friends and Enemies setup.

I wanted tubby's game to be a success, so I joined without looking much at the player list. What resulted involved two Mafia Goons beating two Cops and a Doctor, in that order. I was graciously able to continue my pristine record of losing in LyLo without being the end lynchee, so I'll call it a hollow victory and never speak of this game again. Sotty7 played a terrific scum game though.

Another Newbie game, another terrible experience. I called a few Townies correctly, but was way wrong about the scum throughout. We really shouldn't have lost in LyLo, but the other Townie immediately voted me for reasons that appeared from nowhere and were mostly unsubstantiated. Mafia is, once again, a team game.

Another interesting surprise of a setup. I came under fire for leading the wagon against the D1 Vigilante lynch (so sue me, I was V/LA when he claimed and got lynched anyway) and for half-inadvertently defending favorite target RayFrost (who in a rare break from my usual luck was actually Town). I did well enough defending myself that in spite of being considered "scum with RayFrost" D3 and D4, I was able to turn it around D4 and essentially control the Town in wagoning one scum to near-lynch, realize that player was V/LA, and then herd the Town toward lynching a different scum. Vig-lynching aside, I did a better-than-decent job finding scum in this game. I just wish my first game with roflcopter could have gone more amicably.

A strange setup filled with zealous players. To contrast with the below game, it was ultimately dragged down by scummy Townies (somehow I became one of them?) as well as Townies eager to accuse Townies of doing fairly average things. Even though the scum were almost obliterated by Day 4, the experience felt like a disappointment (even though nobody suspected the two remaining scum, particularly popsofctown, to pull off a win at the time). But Mafia is a team game...

In this game, we drafted our power roles. I was third in the draft order and chose to deprive the scum of their Framer, the only obviously anti-Town role. As it turns out, the scum already drafted Cop and none of the scum bothered to take Framer. Oh well. I hammed up whatever pro-Town-looking things I could come up with in hopes of drawing the NK, and it worked~ This Town did a pretty amazing job, outing two scum D1 and lynching correctly five out of five times. This is the power of high-level play.

In a troubling role reversal, I was daykilled. I don't think I've ever died on Day 1 before... But then, the people who shot me were scum and honorary scum, so I guess that's okay. I had to step in as a back-up back-up mod after I died so the game could keep going. I'm not sure if I would run this kind of setup again given that I had (mostly) perfect knowledge of the game's workings, but it certainly came down to a fascinating conclusion.~ And I still never got to daykill anyone :(

There were no winners to this game except Slicey, who replaced Jebus (again, no winners anywhere). The setup was filled with power roles designed to make the game dramatic and/or finish quickly, and none of them were put to good use - even the Watcher that 100% nailed scum. I deduced that there were at least two scum among the lurkers (in actuality, ALL of the scum were in the lurkers), but I couldn't convince enough people to lynch them before they were replaced. Townies -have- to lynch lurkers...

A Cop, a Survivor, a Framer, a Godfather, one other Mafioso, and a modkill on Town. Even with the Cop (ew) this didn't make for very good odds for the Town on paper, but because the Framer and Survivor died before D2 it was still winnable. I found myself caught in all the wrong places at the wrong times making a lot of gambles that didn't pay off, and had to resign myself to a lynch. Not my best moment. What's worse is that even if I had been alive, I would have been a liability; my two strongest Town reads were on the two remaining scum. Hopefully I can do much better next time.

Mafia 98: Appenine Mafia	Yaw	Vanilla Townie	Killed Night 3	Mafia Win D5	0/1	8/6/9 - 9/3/9 (29)	Rep. blackcatcontract D3
A game with no power roles and generous three-week deadlines. Abandon hope all ye who enter here. To the Town's credit, the game only stalled to deadline once because people were so tired of having 50-page Days that ended in policy lynches on whichever of the anti-Town players (including virtually everyone) enough people could agree to lynch. So this is a good example of why long Days and excessive discussion are NOT good for Town. It's also a compelling argument to make me a dayvig. Sooner or later...

So I replaced into a game where I didn't know the flavor and drew Light Yagami. I had quite a few pro-Kira allies - but I didn't know who most of them were and had no contact with them. I could talk to four other players - but I couldn't be certain of their alignments (one was Town). I had a shinigami to protect me-ish - but he was outed Day 1 and had a Win Condition that was virtually mutually exclusive to my own. I had a Death Note - but both of my kills were blocked. I only needed to kill three roles to win the game - but I had no Role Cop. Another scumpartner was Searching for me - and found me by killing me. Pro-Kira won - except for me, because I was a pro-Kira Survivor. Seriously?

I'm never Mafia. So of course the one time this year I draw Mafia it's in the all-star game. What followed was a game that seemed like a farce of high-level play, with some very sophisticated players taking some very incredible stances. Adel-scum managed to bamboozle and demoralize the Town to the point where only one of them was actually interested in playing at any given time, and they fell apart nicely. This is the first time onsite I've ever made it to endgame and won; it's a weird feeling. I was nominated for a Scummy for this game... but it wasn't thirded. But I got accepted into BaM for it, so I'll take that ^.^

To contrast with the below game, this one was... actually very painful. The first three Days were spent agonizing over idiot Townies at excessive length. Then me and Zazie-Cop (actually insane) claimed D4, and seven Mafiosi died in seven days. There's plenty to laugh at in this game (other than the mostly awful Town play), such as how I survived four kill attempts while investigating four scum, how one Mafioso tried to get me modkilled for posting an image with red text in it (seriously), how fully outed scum tried to openly steer the Town in the wrong direction, and how I stole Page 100 out of a mountain of spam. I was nominated for a title for this game... but it never went anywhere.

This was a cool game. Jahudo invited twelve good players in for a very unusual setup. The power roles were heavily concentrated on the Town side, but the scum had... well, a unique advantage of their own. I tried about three different ways to break the game, with a surprising amount of success. The level of play in this game was pretty high; I'm really glad I got to play in it ^.^

I replaced into a game as part of International Mafia Month. Up until that point, the game was... suffering pretty badly, with VIs, RAGEquitting, a Night that lasted for two weeks, two or three replacements pending, and a self-hammering zwet. I managed to correctly identify a VI-mafioso, but for the wrong reasons (that involved someone else being scum - which was correct, but from a different family). Overall this game went okay for me.

This was a cool setup, although it practically begged for an immediate massclaim and heavily favored coordinated actions. The scum, which had a number of fascinating ways to ruin the Town, sealed its own death warrant when the Godfather got modkilled and the rest lurked and/or acted too scummy to avoid being vigged. Which was a good thing, since the Town was going down in flames beforehand. The ending was too good to spoil here - read it for yourself. I got through this game through sheer pro-Town behavior (considering I was what amounted to a Mod Note Miller on top of being a Doublevoter) that only ended with me getting policy lynched D5 for lack of better options. But I missed my one chance to forcelynch someone like I've always wanted to :-(

Probably my best game yet. DrippingGoofball, my latest psychopath Neighbor, was actually a good mentor on how to play Mafia like a pro - something that came in handy when we agreed to activate a mystery option and become SKs D2. Oops, DGb had already claimed McCain-Neighbor. Oops, DGb got lynched amid outrage over Obama not claiming. From that point I managed to dodge the gamewide hunt for Obama and kill/out every Mafioso in the game... and then get lynched in the most awkward LyLo ever. Hey, it was my best game so far, not a success >.>

Well, it was a screwy game at least. And I did get quite screwed, finding scum left and right after my death and getting recruited into a doomed cult. My poor, poor S/WA. Unfortunately, this game wasn't a pleasant experience for most anyone playing. If nothing else, I can say that I suicided in a game... twice.

Newbie 733 - KILL DIE DEAD	elvis_knits	Doctor	Killed Night 2	Mafia Win D3	0/1	1/30/9 - 3/19/9 (48)	Original Player (IC)
I've always wanted to IC a Newbie game; and although my previous experiences in Newbie games were rather embarassing, this one wasn't too terrible. I tried to play a scummier game than usual as Doc, but I did not foresee actually catching on to both scum separately (after protecting one of them N1) during D2, and getting offed for looking in the right direction. This was a fairly decent game by scum, and it really brought home (again) the anti-Town power of wallposts. I've since been cutting down on them. Also, this will forever be known as "that game with wiploc". Until the next one.

Five scum versus a game plagued with replacements and idiot Townies. What do YOU think happened? All but one of the power roles went to people who were either lynched or S-Killed for scum. I don't think this game was too horrible for me, but it wasn't pretty, either. Shanba-scum acted as the voice of reason throughout and was able to direct the Town for the last two days; gj Shanba.

A flavorful game wherein the Town lynched scum twice in four days, vigged correctly once, and still lost. I thought it was very role-centric, but while it was still possible to do (after we were told Town auto-won on D5) it came down to a war of claims, and the scum falseclaimed excellently. There's really not much more to say here, except that I'm really tired of being a Neighbor to obvscum.

In a game with roles as bastardish as they get, I drew the Vigcultist. With 1-shot NK immunity. And massive falseclaim potential. Best. Role. EVER. Unfortunately, the Mafia targeted me for trying to look like I had purpose in this game (it never did go very quickly or organizedly outside D1). Note to self: Don't attract attention as a third-party role. Ah well; it was fun while it lasted~

My first game as Mafia that wasn't a complete borefest. Everything proceeded to go as wrong as possible, as I lost one partner on N0 and bussed the other two, only to find that I had painted myself into a corner D5. I think what really stopped me in this game was that I played conservatively out of inexperience, and missed out on two gambits that would have surely secured a win. Rhinox and Tarhalindur turned this game around for Town when they replaced in; they deserve a lot of credit for the parts they played.

Scummy Townies all around again. I claimed Doc at D2 LyLo and got counterclaimed by JDodge-scum. What followed was a fascinating bout of mudslinging and theory arguments, eventually leading to JDodge's lynch. What I didn't find out until then was that JDodge never lied about the setup (which he would know) or the likely scum among kuribo and charter, the claimed Vanillas - so by deliberately doing the opposite of what he suggested, I WIFOMed the Town into a harder game. Then again, Sotty7 nailed both scum twice as the Cop/designated stalemate breaker; she really came through.

I freely confess I had no idea who the scum were in this game; everybody except the obvNKs were scummy. Toward the end of the game, I noticed that someone was (I thought) catching failure arguments and was on the verge of being lynched, so I intervened with a better case of my own. 'Turns out the people I accused were the other two Townies and as a result I didn't even give the extremely pro-Town player (in everyone's eyes) the chance to bus his partner (the person I thought was getting scumlynched). This one was entirely on me.

This was the fourth game I joined, and it coincidentally gave me a way to connect to Natirasha, my Neighbor partner and an old arch-rival (well, that's what he thought anyway) from elsewhere. Except... well, being a Neighbor with Natirasha sounds funny until it happens to you. He wasn't confirmed, but seriously, he was Kirby - his name was in all the Vanilla PMs as a pro-Town figure. This game taught me to shop for mods and players over themes, and was vampirized by idiot Townies (of which I eventually became) and flakers. By the time D2 was half-over, nobody cared about the game. Nyeh.

In this game, players were encouraged to use as few words as possible. While it gave everyone a break from walls of text, it was a major hassle on the mods, who were both incapacitated IRL. Between the normal Large Game Lurking and the lack of mod presence, this game was granted a merciful death. I did well enough in this game, I thought.

A classic example of why pressuring (if not lynching) lurkers is good. Thirty pages of catfighting D1 were almost entirely Town vs. Town, and replacing for one of the least-favored people in the game was unpleasant. What was expected to be a Vi-quicklynch D3 (by the Town) turned into ten days of desperate heroism where I was ultimately lynched as SK (they couldn't peg me as Mafia). And the confusion suddenly ended D4 as everything was explained and the three-person LyLo took care of itself. The Town did enough things wrong that they won, in a sense...

One of my better moral victories; my position D1 focused on three people, two of which turned out to be scum. Unfortunately the two people I defended most were also scum, albeit on separate teams; one went to the gallows against my better judgment and the other hit me the night afterward for being his partner. Ironically, the two scum in my three-person focus roleblocked me and rendered me voteless D1 and D2, for naught! It's good to be considered a threat, especially when vanilla~

A strange, strange game where no night actions went through until the actor killed himself at a specified time. My role was basically one of the most useless, if not by the book then certainly by the protects I made (mostly to scum). I won brownie points for standing up for an obvious mislynch, but lost them by not chasing down f-light-scum after her obvious partner got lynched. I won because Natirasha was kind enough to recruit me into his cult - before telling the truth about his role (the first time!). Hilarious flavor text though.

My first game as scum. I was the designated killer, but (inexplicably at the time) none of my kills went through. (Ironically, I was being jailkept as most pro-Town both nights...) Combined with the Town pushing what amounted to policy lynches, the result was a painfully slow game where the Town had zero information to work with. We could have won if D4 had ended in a mislynch, FWIW.

Another Newbie game I replaced into that got abandoned and canceled. I was on an obvious policy lynch wagon, and then went after a promising IC target who turned out to be Town. Le sigh.

When I replaced in on Day 2, I put together some very nice cases against three of the six other players. All three of them were Town. Not my proudest moment. The game was canceled because a person replacing in for scum got a Town Role PM and vice versa. Still, a great game by scum - they probably would have won if the game had continued.

I replaced into this game on Day 2 for an obvscum lurker... who turned out to be the Doctor. I nailed scum trying to pull a heroic drag-the-Town-down-but-never-get-replaced tactic, but got NKd afterward. This turned out to be my first win as Town, so I suppose I should take it even though I wasn't around for very long.

This was my first game here, and by sheer coincidence it turned out to be packed with people who were very experienced with Mafia and were using this game to get a feel for this site. The result was a phenomenal, yet nightmarishly tough game. Having read "typical" Newbie Games, I honestly prefer what I got. It was a trial by fire, and I came out of it considerably better as a player than I came in.
