*sigh*
It's slightly upsetting to see so many people getting over heated. I think the point that is attempting to be made is that we all have different playing styles and all have been used effectively at one point or another. I've been in 20 something games and have seen quiet wolves win and vocal wolves claiming to be wolves win. I've seen quiet villagers end up being great seers and vocal seers being killed by their hunters
and vocal seers making a great game. I've seen ordo's play the whole range and contribute in one game and not another. The point is that everybody contributes what they can when they can. I've personally used quietness during a game as a cause of suspicion, however I generally make it well known that I don't hold well with overly quiet villagers they are more than welcome to play and add a great dynamic to the game.
I think crossing the line is when we point fingers at particular people or styles for loosing the game. After so many games I'm tired of being known everytime for the same thing so I try different styles, some work and some don't, but I, or anybody else, should not be told that it cost us the game because of the way I played. We all try and we all succeed and fail at one point.

What do we deem crossing the line? Where is the line? Does this mean we can't point out where things went wrong?

Perfect example from the game in question would be Formendacil. Did he loose the ordo's the game? Heaven's no. He was killed the first night because he was forced to proclaim himself. It was a huge detriment to loose our seer the first night and certainly contributed to our loss but was it Formendacil's fault? NO! Was it the innocents fault? No, they found him legitimately suspicious and decided to lynch him. During game play I am very vocal and forward about things like this attempted lynching being silly but afterwards I don't think finger pointing is required or acceptable. Why was Formen almost lynched because he has choosen a playing style of hating DAY 1's and sticking to it. I've never held to that style myself and somethings I do bother Formendacil but we get along and don't critize each other. I think we could say something like "It was rather difficult to win after having lost our seer on night one and having only one known innocent to go on"
I've rambled a bit and I'm sorry but it was in haste and with the best intentions.
