    So here's the thing, what really helped make this game, in my opinion, both in terms of my own enjoyment and our success. When I went out on a limb spitting fire and adamantly pursuing my arguments: *I* was genuine as well. My logic(regardless of the angle behind the logic) was consistently at least reasonable. When I said Visor was not a good lynch to pursue, I meant that. When I said Bsmith was acting fishy because of his waivering, I meant that. When I argued that GH contacting Visor on day 1 and leaving a bait vote was not a mafia activity, I meant that. When I said Winston was voting in a similar pattern to that which I have frequently fallen into as a scum, I meant that. Etc. Those points were not, maybe, 100% ironclad, but the rationale behind them was sound, imo. That really helped enable me to argue with conviction and pursue the last round in a way that seemed honest. I didn't have to pretend or BS my posts because even if I had been a townie who was actually scumhunting, I would have followed a similar path. I think that's one of the hardest things to do as a mafia, but honestly, I owe GH for that this game- he was so pumped for this game it wore off on me and helped get me into the right mood.

    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
