Were you a traitor? But still, fake cop claim, Tpein and Fuji getting town checks, obviously from now on players have to be more aware of trickery with that shit.
Team 1 was Me/Pein/Chadwick, Team 2 was Craig and Aurelian. We could accidentally kill them and they could accidentaly mess with our actions. I need to Enslave @Alco the doc to allow a merge.

So we were quite nerfed tbh, just got lucky with Alco claiming. Me checking Craig N1 and not targetting him anymore,etc.

Fake Cop claim lmaooo.
CP was scum cop
Fuji had role-cop
CP poisoned Ratchet after T-Pein had the great idea of rolecrushing him with Crufixiation to remove his vote and quick hammer that last lynch
I could also both permanently role-block and send out drugs (buffout lets you live an extra cycle if shot/killed, mentats gave CP his extra vote power this phase, and jet lets me reload their abilities, all are 2x) but I was balanced since I couldn't use those abilities for Fuji, T-Pein, and Prof

But the biggest help was the fallout between Grammaton and Ekko, way too much confusion and Ekko's questioning Gramma being IC really benefited us

My original wincon was to make Psychic out live the five names I had in my second wincon. I knew Psychic was serial all along and it was tragic watching her be outed D1.

honestly idk how ultra could make such a pro scum bastard setup at a time when town literally hasn't won a ranked game yet on this forum lmao

cold af, I took no pleasure in this and won't mind if we've ruined our chances. didn't sign on to any of these completely unnecessary risky endgame plans, but scumbox is full of spam so it's been impossible for me to keep up with the brain trust

Might as well get this out of the way - I had already discussed this extensively in dead chat, but I expect to hear some more complaints about the Cop thing, so now that you're on the winning side - hear me out.

The cop had an actual utility for the split mafia team - it was to help you locate your lost allies. There was never any guarantee of the unification happening. While I had no delusions about how the role would be received, had there been a single scum flip over the course of the game, I think it would have introduced the possibility into reasonable role spec. As the game was a clean sweep, admittedly, it couldn't be reasonably expected that you would be flipped.

Had the cop role not existed for you, I probably would have had to introduce two scum role cops. Had this been a bog standard 5 man team, I probably would have never introduced the cop for the explicit purpose of rugpulling town - it was a role with a utility and a function, and town was compensated with Boone (Phenom) who was functionally the cop (Arguably better, in a lot of ways). Unfortunately, he bore the scrutiny over you. I think there was a few other context clues that should have led to not blindly believing your claim, but I'll leave it at that for now.

I expect a lot of complaining about the game as it played out, but from a bitd's eye standpoint, I think a lot of things also went right for scum, and a lot of things went very wrong for town, and even in spite of that town had a chance to turn things around and ultimately didn't.

In general, however, I do try and subvert some expectations as host so the game isn't full of obvious clears - it's why I chose to customize most roles and make them some combination of standard and unique roles which couldn't be readily alignment mapped into a sleepwalking victory.

Well, glad it's done. No clue how you should ever catch a fake cop, but whatever. Goodbye OLF Mafia.

Also CP legitimately thought T-Pein was innocent since he was disguised as Ratchet when he did that kill and CP tried to cop him to learn his alignment lmao

Thanks for the game bb! I did enjoy my role a lot. Wish it could have evolved and played out a bit differently!
