It probably doesn't help that you always peg me in public right after I try and put blame on you. Then I can always pass it off as a retaliation/sour grapes move. Like in this one you nailed me right after I put you on blast for waffling (not Waffel113ing) on the lynch vote. You know what the most important part of Mafia is? You're going to get me one of these days. I can only scramble like a hilarious cartoon cat on a slick floor for so long. But good grief do I hope I get to be Town next time I play. I want to be good again! Timing. I just get so excited that I have you in my clutches! Haha. Next time, Gadget Notorious! NEXT TIME!

To elaborate a bit on some of my decisions for this game, originally there wasn't going to be a hider. I was going to have two power roles for the town and two for Mafia. But then after thinking about it I decided I might as well give the game a bit more flavor. And so I made Momo into the hider.
Also speaking of the hider, it's pretty crazy that he had happened to attempt hide behind not one, but two Mafia members in a row. The first one was thankfully thwarted thanks to everyone seemingly targeting the hider that night (Which I'll admit did make me have to think about what exactly the result should be) But then they had to go and hide behind the second one as well.
Also, had the Hider not died earlier on, there's a chance the game would've ended differently since AH would've confirmed that Notorious was scum. If that had happened then we would've been down to one scum against two or three townies, which would've been interesting to see.
I also enjoyed doing the write ups this time around. It was much easier doing them without doing like I did with my previous game and dropping hints all over the place. I think there may have been a few hints in these write ups as well, but nothing too explicit. I also had a hard time writing around each character without specifically naming them, which probably did make some of the phrasing seem a bit strange.
All in all it wasn't a perfect game, but I'm very happy with how it turned out. And I look forward to running another game in the distant future.

Speaking for myself, I didn't know what the heck BRB and Produceman were thinking by targeting the Hider on Night 1. If we had killed the person he was hiding behind, we could have taken out two on Night 1.
Thankfully, it all incredibly worked out in the best way possible.

As for Wolf, man. He fit so well into being mafia; but then I went back to the TMNT thread and read his play style there after I died, and realized that he played the exact same way in that game. I was doing this and TMNT Mafia pretty much simultaneously. Needless to say, it's very awkward when you play virtually the exact same way and you turn up heel in one of them. Wonder how it'd have turned out for the other if I died here first, though...

We were unfamiliar with the role. Our theory was that Role Blocking Connor would negate his immunity to Night Kills, thus allowing us to Night kill him. I think the fact he was protected that Night made it all pay off down the road, as my Town status was virtually unquestionable and all up to me to screw it up. It worked because of Orange.
I like to think I keep getting better at playing Scum, but I think being Godfather was what really saved me. Our Day 1 tactics still would have worked, but then the Cop could have investigated me and that would be that.
I think this game had two things in Mafia's favor: First, there were 3 Mafia to 9 Town - 25% of the players were Mafia, allowing us to win sooner. Second, I'm starting to wonder if the Godfather role is too powerful. I think we'd have much the same game either with a second Vanilla Goon in place of the Godfather or else only the Godfather and Role Blocker versus 10 Townies. I think alternate setups like those could make for more dynamic games. I'll keep it in mind for when I run games of my own.
