I personally think most decisions can be excused if there is acceptable explanation and it always depends on the situation and on how much you believe the person.
I am not as strict as Lift about doing optimal actions and that's why even dared to claim something like what I did and apparently it was not good choice.
But I am of the opinion that if I already don't believe someone's claim I don't need to verify it by using night actions.
The same with copping. I am always in favour in investigating the less visible people, not the ones I already suspect and want to verify my read on.
I think it may be because what will not be considered optimal play, I play investigative role's NA for my own benefit, not for the others. It makes sense one uses the investigation to back their read so everyone takes it for granted but I rather get some new read, even with the risk the previous one is not verified. But it bears the risk of the previous one being wrong of course and as was visible here, risk of looking scummy for not picking the right target.

Interestingly, in this particular game on N1 an hypothetical watcher would have wrongly accused Scene of blocking Carradice..But I still agree that you're right that there isn't a better target the watcher could choose than the claimed cop.

A wave from here in the direction of the crew in the observation thread. I might have been fun to chat with you there, but, since the rules allowed for it, I felt my place was with my team.

Nice that both SPF and Trent came out of their sickeness unscathed. A special salute to Yogsloth as well. All the best for you and your dear ones. Better not talking about real heroes being the unsung ones who care and struggle every day, lest people find the notion too sentimental. Still...

Yes! The elimination of the first rebel was essentially a rebel construct. It was the double bussing that made the wagon the leading one on D1. About D2, it was essentially the same, IIRC. A three-stage rocket. As a strategy to success, it would not have worked without Trent's superb performance in the game thread.

By the way, I was not trying to pocket you nor anyone else. Just giving a fair opinion on things, as I would have done as town.

Nice game =)

I just noticed that scene protected Carradice N1. If I'd commuted, there'd have been no nightkill. There's a decent chance that scene would've confirmed he protected the "cop", making Carradice all but confirmed. Interesting to consider how that would've played out, but I can only see scenario's where town would've lost even more swiftly...

All sorts of Hoda's prisoners were freed in the upcoming days. This included the guards imprisoned during her little game, both rebel and loyal, and those who were under care came out as if they had only actually slept an additional few hours.

There were fights over how to pull off the democratic process and hoping that it won't be hijacked by despots. While some guards wanted nothing to do with the seat other than giving it to the people and catching on with the hot idea of fair elections, some just wanted the seat directly. Who knows how it will play out?

But most importantly, Lathif made it out with the prized clock. He just put it in his most sacred trophy room, as all of his other valuables went. For an outside observer, it appeared like just one prized thing among many prized things, but to him it outshone all the rest. No scratches. No damages. Not even a single speck of dust.

The author responsible of the The Daily Viper's posts about the Queen was a bit...saddened. He had a bunch of nice pieces to release. and But alas, she was no more. Not to mention she became a little bit...foul-mouthed post imprisonment. The revolutionaries initially wanted her head, but decided to keep her alive for political and huminatarian reasons. Plus, what better way to show her country sucked, than to build a better country and have her witness it? That was assuming the transition period worked out.

We might soon find out. Or we might not. Probably Peeves already figured it out, though.

Building a better world for you all. You should be forever grateful to us.

Hooray! Nice ending to the story Pooka! Thanks for the great game it was very fun

I remembered what the thing was I asked you to remind me about. I sent some messages to people before this game asking if they were interested to sign up, but after they got back to me the game was ready to begin, so I said I'd remind them when the game was over. Thanks for the reminder

I can't remember what it was I was going to say that Joppo reminded me about. I THINK it might have been when I was thinking about ZFR being possibly mafia and then decided not to put that theory forward in case mafia hadn't considered it and decided to keep ZFR alive to get mislynched, which I was later smug about.
