Ott’s team 2B was clean! I was sad.

Well, nevermind. Correlation was wrong on this one, because he’s played this before.

Anyway, GG.

Ah dang. Well played evils!

Thanks for hosting @Knightsaber!

I don’t get the 9 Yes votes for the last team, it looked like ‘well whatever we’re tired of this’.

Well now that I think about it. Merlin knew Casey was evil but said Yes probably because he didn’t want to be one of the very few No votes. Couldn’t say anything because he would be outed. Didn’t know scott was Mordred and about to get cards, though.

I think it was fear of the Chicago Proxy and the No Confidence. If both are held by evil, it could be game over.

I voted yes so Scott would get cards, had no idea Oberon was on the team!

Lantz had his hands tied pretty much the whole game.

Yep. Which made no sense, even scott said it, but instinct is what it is.

Quiet Avalon games suck! :)

Especially over on my side of the table. I had a lot of PM’s, though. I guess.

How did @CraigM guess @Lantz for Merlin on the first day? On the basis of Silent_Lantz?

No votes on my team. Scott also no I guessed Morgana, incorrectly.

Lantz was a consistent no until this team.

Wow! I thought getting scott the cards was the best play, but didn’t figure it would win us the game immediately.

Thanks for the game everyone, and to KS for running it!

Me, too.

Me too! I was just trying to do the normal VNFI thing I do in every game, until this last turn when I wanted the cards. I thought it was a clean team, but figured the cards were more important.

Was I quiet? Maybe, but mostly cuz there wasn’t much to talk about. I wasn’t trying to be quiet, but the group was through quest one in a flash and a blur.

Thanks for running the game @Knightsaber , I have missed playing it!

Wow you don’t get a more convincing loss than that.

I’ll take that as a moral victory! Even though I had next to no confidence in it.

Yes, thanks for running it KS! I’d forgotten how much fun these were.

I have an idea about Chicago Proxy which might make it more relevant. What if you play it after the team votes are announced, to change one vote? Instead of deciding to play it before the team vote is taken? That way, you could make a tactical choice to advance a team or kill one on the close votes?

I voted yes to your team as I was on it. I don’t see the tell but I guess it was there.

Indeed, I had no idea who was Merlin. I don’t see the tell either.

I had kind of forgot, but we have run into this team killing problem before and discussed dumping the idea. Maybe you can only force a yes vote? Or bring back spotlight?

Honestly I think that a good player should always just immediately burn it.

Maybe I have selective memory, but it seems to me that CP is rarely used.
