As a GM, i require night moves one hour before daybreak.

Most GMs do this as well.

I'm the opposite. I'm a great example of what not to do when scum.

I think some of that came through this time when I was indie. I made some gaffes in the early game. and I thought my indie game had improved. :(

Yes ... Though I was skeptical about your claim, and about your motives .. in the end, that's how I came to look at it.

It was helpful, but I was overawed by the effort you put in personally. This game was very different to the last, with things changing nightly to give different people dis/advantages. It takes some fathoming. Your 'potted synopses' must be invaluable to everyone. I still don't feel ready to fly solo, but would like to keep watching.

Do you want to tag along with me again, or get someone else's perspective on the game?

It's nice of you to say so. :D

This was the first game we've played where I felt I had a solid read on you. I may not be able to recognize scum-Feck yet, but I think I'm starting to grok town-Feck.

gib, i was dreading getting a second scum role on the bounce.
I'd find it very hard to maintain to be honest. I thought you did very well.

But then again I don't particularly like playing scum.

What Nelli did well was ensure we believed she was town and she asked really good questions.
Sure, there was the wifom that she was acting out as a noob.
But she coped really well with votes being applied to her as well.
And her analysis was good given her experience.

me neither usually, altho the teamwork on the whiteboard is more fun than being a scared lone townie in the dark

on the whole tho i find h0ning up on my skillz at finding liars is the bit i really like, that's useful skillz on the innernet. Learning to be a liar is a necessary part of that learning i guess.
