I never figured out that Bill and Gadarene could not fully communicate. That idea didn't cross my mind! I had assumed for a while Bill was scum, but because he figured out I was Ro0sh, I assumed it was Sinjin or Hal helping him make that assumption (as I didn't think we ever really played games with one another). Amusing that the player I spend nearly half the game either trying to avoid or kill is the one in the end I try to team up with for the victory.  |

And since you asked Meeks:
I wanted to lynch Pollux or the day you got lynched, and I felt like I was up for possibly being hanged because of the fact that I claimed as the Devicer.
I believe my exact thoughts on it were:
I pretty much went for the easy way out, and I admitted that the meeko lynch was bad play on my part during the Night, but :shrug: I wasn't really feeling Townie at that point, and was only focused on my own survival.
Better you than me at that point. It was an easy lynch to hide in.

That being said, I didn't reveal it in the game because I felt like I was the Riddler knowing Batman was Bruce Wayne. Took the fun out of it, me just revealing it especially since I used to talk to Roosh on a daily basis and had way more of an advantage figuring it out. I left enough clues for other people as well as Roosh, and I wouldn't be surprised if Roosh figured out I knew at some point during the game as well. :bows: Major Props for that reference right there, Tdawg. For all my WIFOMing if you knew or not, and you had figured it out the first Day. I purely drank the Wine there while you developed immunity to it from the start. Major points to you- and that's why I targeted you N1. I wanted you to live a lil' longer |

My personal favorite quote of mine- I had forgotten about this from way back in Day 2 I think: II. BTW, forgot to mention yesterday: BillMC's post 191 on day 2. It pinged me. The whole "I read back and my number one suspect for scum was... the dead guy who turned up scum". Just trying to build up townie cred and establish "hey, I know what's up guys. I suspected the known Scummy guy. --I fully approve of it as a Scum Strategy. Well done. And then the rest of the post- Fluff about the the two dead people possibly trying to communicate with each other and a possible recruitment by Ed of Pleo. Again, sounds interesting, but really fluffy shit. The Dead can't defend themselves, and they're great to poke with sticks and theorize about. I approve again. --And smears the Vig in the process. --Then the SilverJan/Lightfoot discussion- the use of his words to dismiss them like "children fighting in front of the teacher", really is FANTASTIC work. He smears them both, but really dismisses Silver's arguments (as weak as they are), and his word choice makes it seem like they're not a significant topic of discussion, and it's just petty squabbling and not a true avenue of discussion. BAsically, I FULLY approve of this post- this is what Scum SHOULD be doing if they're trying to defend an ally or dismiss an arguement. He establishes his credibility; then sounds smart with unprovable theories; and then dismisses others, and slightly adds the emotional jabs too (calling them both children). It's a fantastic post and earns him an FOS in my book. If I had to join the scum team this game, I'd hope BillMC was there. He'd be great at it. |

Storyteller, once again your roles were great fun to read and play, with some nice twists. Thanks.  We are going to have to add another point to the "just because it's unlikely don't decide it didn't happen" list. Bill drew Bruce Wayne? After spending most of the last 18 months or so with a Batman avatar from the last Halloween costume party (where, I will remind you, he was randomly given the role of Town cop...) Roosh, if you read that game you will see why Mafia teams around here go "Bill's not one of us. KILL BILL!" all too often. He basically solved that game (and the Malazan game) very quickly. |

:nod:
All i had of knowledge of the new players was from the "Wedlock" game. That was it. The rest is from 2 years ago memories of playing with you guys. But Bill came out impressively early on, and him and Pizza were my "big 2" of players who were scummy/personal challenges of who to beat. I put Bill into "Storyteller" class. Good to know he deserves that title.
Also, I just read the Scum boards, and WOW. Lots of Drama there for Night 1. Impressively so, and all the more kudos, Gad, for basically duct-taping it all together, and for Idle for managing to earn himself a W while Scum.
That ish was cra.

Huh. Just noticed that my name isn't Roosh on here. Apparently a reference to Ash from Evil Dead though. Nifty.  |

Ok, I'll run with that analogy. If someone puts a gun to your head and says that you can live if you cut off your dick, wouldn't you rather live and...i dunno, maybe become a Master of cunning linguistics than die? Hee, nice one Cookies. |

On the whole, I'm sure of one thing: my next game is going to be an open game. I already have kind of a neat idea for it, and the cool thing is everyone who's interested can help with balancing and fine-tuning and then actually play in the game, to boot.

I'm thinking if I want to maybe watch more games and just be more of a helper than a player of Mafia games since I'm going to be in Intern year next year. But no more long term absences for more than 2+ years from you guys. And if I find Boozy/Dio again, I'd love to plot with him (And You now, Story) on Arkham 3 maybe a few years down the road.... Since it's now Scum 1, Town 1, and Ro0sh 1. That said, I did have an idea for an "Open" Mafia game as well kicking around in my head. I've actually only created one game- Arkham 1. But I'm thinking about another themed game, but more in the style of it being an open game that once I get the setup/character/flavor etc set up, it'd be one in the "Conspiracy style", where anyone could use the templates and set up a game to play it. -But it'd be way less complex than conspiracy, and just more a return to basic Mafia of Scum vs. Town, maybe an SK or two, but no more 3rds vs. PFKs, no recruitment, nothing crazy. What do you guys think? Should i tinker around? Where would I get some private space for a project like that even? |

Question: would a 95% open with one hidden element game satisfy your urge to play in an open game? |
