    Its a shame we cant read trough the QT's because it would have been interesting to read through the development of the scum team and also witness the dynamics of the lover team. I kind of feel bad for Csar though. Pretty cruel role to be screwed no matter how the game developed.

    I thought we were essentially renamed masons, until ATPG said otherwise.

    If Csargo was my lover and my whole team had died - did we elope?

    Are we living happily ever after in Szeged?

    Not the greatest team performance but easily the best solo hero for a scum I've ever seen. Congratulations. I don't know I I'd have ever suspected you if I were in the game anyway. Why did you kill me?

    On N3 the choices were DP-Slaan-Pizza, but the specter of a doctor, and not wanting to kill predictably straight down the Lock-Town list, led me to choose you as a kind of trick shoot.

    Probably not the best option. But I made loads of blunders over the course of the game, and I somehow made it through. I guess Bobby Fischer was wrong when he said, "All that matters on the chessboard is good moves."

    If you wish, but the mafia-chessteam delegation won the tournament. Csargo lost his game. He can still live happily ever after with you though.

    I mean, Csargo would have to die for town to win, if that's what you mean.


    And Csargo, I understood quite early on that you didn't know the distinction between lovers/masons/neighbors. Masons are the only ones guaranteed to have the same alignment. Otherwise the pairings may or may not be mixed alignment wise.

    I still don't know what neighbors are.

    I've heard of lovers as a scum/villager pairing, but never seen one before.

    Honestly, I went through reinoe, Slaan, Fred and just about everyone else, up to and including a late tinfoil on pizza.

    Yeah, that really messed me up, not knowing there was a distinction between them, I would have played it differently if I realized earlier. I don't think I would have ever tried to lynch Monty, but I wouldn't have tried to survive as much as I did. Hindsight.

    My bad. I assumed people here knew what lovers were, or that you would try to look it up when you saw it wasn't masons. I can try to add a link to an explanation next time I use roles that I'm not sure have been used here before, in the interest of fairness.

    Just something so simple as rand has so much to say for a game. Had Slaan or Pizza been randed into the lover pair instead, the game might have been very very different. It certainly would have made things trickier for Monty :)

    I know there were bad vibes around some points in this game, but honestly I think that was just because the standard was so high.

    Between the usual suspects bringing their a-games, the org legends rolling back the years, and the newcomers showing exceptional game, this was an intense environment from start to finish.

    I shouldn't have just assumed. Should have looked it up. Now I know for the future.
