I will admit that clinging to that idea resulted in my eventual lynching. I should have backed off once once it was you, Sevyas, Warden, krellin, myself and Fasces. I should have realized he was the doc at that point. Though the funny thing is, I was relatively good at figuring who the mafia would target, even down to Warden last night.

Re: yebellz, yeah, that too, not following a poor call made by a nominated bloc leader was suddenly seen as worthy of suspicion. I'll be the first to admit that I got caught up in things a bit too, and I certainly could have looked more analytically at the whole thing, maybe even going back to Abg before Sev. In any case, I don't think anyone is going to successfully advocate for a bloc tactic for the next round.
Congratulations to the Mafia and nice job, abgemacht.

I'm surprised abge managed to survive when he was far and away the top suspect collectively several days ago (as I tried to quantify with my 3/2/1 point value system). I think the early ##ENDs to days were bad for the town. Not everyone can be on at the same time. Days are the only time when the town can discuss things and share analysis. Cutting that discussion short -- on one day, almost 24 hours short -- is bad. I had hoped to jump back on that day and further discuss lynching abgemacht. Instead, the day ended prematurely and I didn't even submit a lynch vote.
This game was awesome. Thanks PE. Well played all round I have to say. Like abge, I have not been able to think about anything else for the past.... euh... week or so.

Well done abge, for securing the win ;-)

Oh and if people were wondering:

I killed Warden because he was saved last turn, so my chances of killing him were slightly higher. It also had the added benefit of leaving me with the two most likely townies in the whole game to agree with me : )
The problem is we did not have the right person leading the block. If Thucy had not been killed, we would have won. However, Fasces was absentee and krellin had a habit of switching votes rapidly. I honestly did not know what thoughts I could share without krellin throwing suspicion on me.

You're just lucky you killed YJ on day one, abge. I knew you were foul.

Of course, I also wanted to kill thucy and krellin, so whaver :P

Yeah, I agree with abge about that one. Vash, you had two logical suspects left in abge and TMW, and then you go on about fasces possibly being a convoluted mafia plant. That really helped set abge up to dig your grave. Also, the "lemon rant" was quite misguided. You need to stroke krellins ego. He won't listen to logic if he's not being praised. Look at how abge played him.
Oh and this was fun, by the way. I just hope I can get a power role next time, I really want to see how I would be different as a doctor, cop, vig, mafia or even SK. Though they will probably put me as vanilla townie again.

"I killed Warden because he was saved last turn, so my chances of killing him were slightly higher." -Abge

I was actually really surprised that you guys didn't use the consecutive target trick on Fasces the first time he saved himself. Even reading the mafia QT, I didn't really get why you guys didn't at least go for him twice in a row. Especially since so many of you seemed to think he was the doc.
wait, where is the link to the QT. I didn't see that yet.

So, I'll admit that I played the night game rather poorly. I kinda of went all Scanner Darkly and night phases were very disorienting to me.

Also, I play Mafia all the time (I havent lost as mafia in years) but the rules here were different and I genuinely kept forgetting them.

By the way, I think I might be able to GM the next one, if nobody else is interested.

I am going to be in Europe for a couple of weeks, so I won't have time to play, but I should have time to Roll over the turns and whatnot.

If you guys want me to do it, let me know.
Also, I wonder what PE was thinking when in like round 2 I came up with the idea of 4 mods, 4 mafia?

"*shrug* in the god thread we have been discussing whether krellin would ever vote for abge since ~ day 5"

Truth is, yes I would have. Period. End of discussion. I did..and then Vash kept talking.

If it had been anyone else but Vash versus abge, abge probably would have died. As a high and obvious suspect, I figured if he was mafia, save the desert for last, since he was so obvious to so many. Why kill the obvious mafia guy first when you can keep him around and use him? That’s one of the reasons I didn’t want to kill abge earlier and defended him to keep him around – because he was a useful tool **either way**.

YJ - I've thought about it as well (GM'ing, that is). Though I'd like to "tweak" the set-up and powers if I GM'ed, so need to ponder possibilities.
My goal was to win over fasces with facts, I did not believe I could win over krellin, at least not with the way I play. I did decide to have some fun with my posts, which was a bad idea in hindsight as it made me just seem crazy. Ex: the lemon rant

It's Maple's Alter Ego! (But Seriously--Should Serling Be Forced to Sell the Team?)
http://nba.si.com/2014/04/29/donald-sterling-adam-silver-nba-owners-reaction/ To be clear--this is HYPOTHETICAL. There's nothing in the NBA Constitution that gives the commissioner the right to do this, so this is more just a thought experiment--say that power existed, and Adam Silver COULD force Serling to sell the team based on his repeated racist comments over the years, with this last doozy being the kicker. If the power existed, SHOULD the man lose his team over this?

Gunboat game for the reliable but poor
I'm tired of the NMRs and CDs that are far too common i the low-bet games I can afford to play. I'd love to play in the big-pot games with the best players, but I don't have the $ (and, hey, I'm not that good anyway). If there are other middle of the road players who feel the same way, perhaps we can organize a password-protected game (or two if there's enough interest) of reliable gunboaters. More below.

Phase length for FTF games?
I've been thinking about putting together a face to face game for some new players (friends who don't play diplomacy.... yet). But, I've never played FTF myself - so:

What kind of phase lengths do people use? I assume that there's also a time or turn cap too (eg game ends in 1910)?

Underage Drinking
Two IU players busted for underage drinking, one I know well. I guess the shocking part of their arrests is that the police in B-town are such assholes that they go around hunting for underage drinkers on Little 500 Day.

Please tell me no one on webDip suffered until 21 before their first drink.

Woody Allen, child molestor[?], given a lifetime achievement award.
So, one of my courses this semester is about "contemporary issues" and one of the issues I'm supposed to debate during our final is whether Woody Allen deserved the lifetime achievement award given to him by the Golden Globes. I've been assigned to argue on the side that he should not have gotten the award. And I want to hear what the people of WebDip think. Source links in the thread.
