naw brah no one will vote you for talking too much until at least like halfway thru the game Even then you can get away with it. Talking is the most important thing to do early on, but especially with the way this last tribal worked where the person with the second-most votes went home, it was important to talk with everyone as much as possible. Talking in public doesn't count. Took me a fair while to figure out but the key is talking about non-game things. What video games people like, etc. Just try to throw anything out that'll make them feel like they have a connection to you. It's a pretty difficult step to take if you're used to Mafia (or Diplomacy in my case) because there it's all about game.

Diplomacy is basically the same game in a lot of ways (just a bit more complicated mechanically) and nobody ever talks about out of game stuff in that.

Tbh I was expecting to be able to skirt by the first few rounds, and even after that was shattered I was still eliminated after a dramatic change of tactic. I reaaaaaally don't want to play again because it's clear that I am a black hole for votes.

I do feel like you have potential, but sometimes things just aren't you for. I'm glad you tried, though!

Like, I deliberately threw the 2nd challenge just so someone else could win.
At least they didn't look like they were backstabbing me.

Yo wolf Can you give me a summary of what happened that round from your perspective? Why did the votes end up how they did? Does Wolf going change any of your plans moving forward? What are your relationships with the other remaining players in the Hole like? We put too many people voting on Hatsune, and I think Hatsune and Jerky voted for Wolf. Hatsune said they were voting Jerky so the switch is ?????? I think it's cause Hatsune proposed a 4-man alliance, including everyone but Jerky and Wolf. Hatsune probably thought if they voted Wolf it would save them. I know that one Jerky vote was Wolf. And the three Hatsune votes were Rey, MC and I. All in all, we should have planned it better. Wolf was one of my greatest allies so it really stung. The canine even gave up their chance of winning to help me win. Fuck. Now i'm sucking up to Rey and making sure they're on my side. I have MC (<3) on my side although he's talking to me less.

I'm now angry that beef, someone who was the least active, somehow stayed in while my ass was sent home. This is why I play Mafia. Beef dead.
