Look. If this round was instead the last known scum player being lynched, you know that the townies would already be engaging in some celebration amongst themselves for carrying out what they know to be the last lynch. And nobody would fault them for that. It's the way the game is played. This would have likely gone differently if Goltar and W_M hadn't come out with their "Everyone vote no-lynch and if you don't you're mafia" plan. We weren't going to vote no-lynch, and there's really no need to draw it out. For this we've been told that we are quitters and bad sports, and that we've lost honor and respect. There have been games that numbers-wise has been the same kind of situation, but I've never seen this before. I'm not sure what you expected us to do, Slinky =/ The game could have been called after the Don was lynched and it was clear that we'd have enough revenge votes to lynch a townie today. The game wasn't called so this vote is just going through the motions. If the townies would have had to "go through the motions" of lynching the last known mafia player, there would be something similar. Some quick votes to end the game, some celebrating, the host post making it official, and then the end of the game chat. I really don't know how we SHOULD have played this according to you. I understand that some of Starman's posts were antagonistic, but this was after Soylent insulted his playing in the game and after W_M called us bad sports and quitters and saying we didn't even try. I think the only difference between how this would have gone on LP and how it's going here is that either the host would have called the game already or the other team wouldn't be such a debbie downer about it I remember when in one of our games (Matrix) the baddies gained control of the vote and the townies had some fun with it, going down in style. The host then called the game and everybody was happy.

slinky: I didn't say that Jason announced our victory. I said he could have (and IMO should have) announced our victory. Maybe he should have. But you aren't the host. It shouldn't be your prerogative to make that call.

As far as I can tell, it's a mistake on Jason's part that this game hasn't been called yet. If you combine this opinion with one of my previous posts, you might get an idea of why none of us wanted to wait.
This is probably the last I should say about this subject.

What appals me is how some people mention they are willing to play, but then don't participate. QFT. This is how I saw FH, by the way. As not participating. I probably would've gone after him even harder if I had been town. Also, I've just noticed my karma change. Shame on you, whoever you are. Muzzz what is up with you taking swipes at someone who is not allowed to speak for them self right now. I mentioned this before. Not one other person has done this. You also bad mouth Jason who is not here. You are some coward in my eyes. FH had you and many others pegged - not too shabby. Of course you did not want anyone to listen to him.

OK OK OK... I think it's time a few people took a hint from Manny and swallowed a Little Book of Calm (Black Books reference for those wondering what the hell I'm on about). Yes, after carefully running through all the possibilities (I'm not quite so keen to see this end as the Mafia, hence why they spotted it before me), I'm calling the game over. There are 9 votes for soylentred with the revenge votes, sealing the lynch, and leaving the Mafia at 4 players against 5 Townies (they did NK one of the VIs). As w_m has not previously been blocked, and the Don's Wife is still alive, and I'm pretty sure the Mafia believe the role claim, it will be 4 on 4 tomorrow, and with their vote switching power the Mafia are home.
Congratulations to the Mafia, and thank you to all who participated. The game has mostly been played in the right spirit, a pity a few people couldn't keep a lid on it at the end.
For the record, here is the full list of roles:
Kahlan - The Don colorlessgreen - The Don's Wife alterego - Crooked Cop secretcowlevel - Goon capricasix - Goon muzzz - Goon OneTreeHill - Goon
wrayburn - Village Idiot maatianna - Village Idiot/BOPT starman (replaced lazarussham) - Mysterious Stranger (chose Mafia and vote-switching power)
merlin - War Hero soylentred - Town Drunk slinky - Clairvoyant water_moon - Doctor goltar - Nurse Nazdakka - Assassin/BOPT tornvalor - BOPT FIREHORSE - BOPT nolecub - BOPT ludacris - BOPT Nac Runo - BOPT calamity - BOPT bobthewarrior - BOPT Xanth - BOPT
The delay in ending the game was caused by two factors - I was out all day yesterday, and this is the first opportunity I've had to look in since the night post, and as I said, I didn't spot the mathematical win as quickly as the Mafia, and in any case I have to be much more careful before I declare such a result than they do.
I will await some thoughts/feedback from the participants before I post my own.

Yay! =) Thanks for the game Jason, for the most part I had a blast. This was different than a lot of the games we play on LP/The Piano, so it was a fresh experience with some fresh faces. Shout it to mah fellow mafia scum, they were great fun and everyone played pretty well. Thanks for letting me play with y'all, Old Timers. As for my guesses as to who the other LP'ers are... Slinky - Stlgirl or Freckles Wrayburn - SpaceDaisy Torn Valor - Black Rock The rest were on my team Also I had a pretty good feeling that Slinky had become a True Seer after yesterday, she called me out kind of randomly when the only person who had really brought my name up before that was Nolecub. So I figured she had checked my name and gotten black. Everyone else's roles surprised me, especially Wrayburn! Had no idea you were a VI!

TH--you were a great teammate. And I'll say we had much fun in btsc!! And you did well to fake a OTH fan...I think a number of people underestimated you based on that. Oh, and I've been wanting to say since day 1, but it was way too much fun to pretend to be someone else (I was channeling Link, with a bit of LA and a spoonful of DD)...I'm female. And I can't wait to hear who the other LP-ers are. Smiles, LoRab

Also...
I've been asked to share with you all that Secret Cow Level was Diamond Dog.
And thanks for bringing us into the game, Jason. It was certainly an interesting experience (even if I died early...really nothing new for me). It's definitely a different style of play here and a different tone in general. It was really hard to get used to the no posting at night and the no BTSC during the day...It also really made me think a lot about what it's like to be a "newbie" in a new mafia site...
I'd love to see some of the players from here play on LP and The Piano...Ya'll are welcome any time.

FH had you and many others pegged - not too shabby. Of course you did not want anyone to listen to him. He had no-one "pegged". He just went on a blind OMGUSing spree. He lynched Nac first, for the same reasons, in case you've forgotten.

And he did not lynch Nac - he was one of many who voted that way - not me tho.
