you tell us. i certainly have no idea.

well i knew who scum were from day 1 do it's hard for me to say, but i did find myself rooting for MZ and was hoping you guys would eventually lynch ob (sorry ob!)

but i'm not sure ksen would have wanted to lynch ob so...dunno

[gib]

i can agree with that. i'm not fond of out of game info being used. I got myself lynched my first game at tr because a teammate got a scum lynched by profile watching and catching them sending a kill order to the gm. It's why i felt forced to tell aza about the pm sent to me by mistake. I like winning, but not by unfair methods.

i don't qute follow what you're saying about yr 1st tr game - what happened? (i agree with your overall point btw)

It is kind of funny that aza is so hard on callan after the cardflip error. It's like people mess up sometimes.

yup

i have played at places where there's a nonvote penalty. bsically if you don't vote, you get 2 penalty votes the next day. at least you can count on most people showing up for at least a vote post then. or at least the scum and specials will. not a lot you can do about people who won't play when they're VT.

That's an interesting idea, much better than ones I was thinking about.

agreed

someone was watching another players profile, and noticed them sending a message to the gm during nightfall. i don't quite know how it was done, but he was able to post a link in thread showing the contact. so the scum player was intsa final lynched the next day. i thought that was hugely unfair so got myself lynched the next day to balance things a bit. didn't make a lot of friends with my fellow townies at the time. Like i said then, i sign up to play mafia, not profile watch.

you can have my next scum role. I really, really hate being scum. I was kicking myself for playing this game from the minute I saw my role pm.

i wish there were a way to trade roles

tenuous once ran a game where people had points they could use to either "buy" themselves a role or spend the points to get someone else a particular role. Whoever had the most points for a particular role got it. That might be an interesting mechanic to build into the game. people knew how they had spent their points, and we did a lot of guesswork trying to figure out who would have gotten various roles if people were using their points to build the perfect town/scum teams.

MZ really clicked for me

when i'm scum i prefer it when the gm is prepared to accept the night action on the scum board. I never really understood why some GMs insist on an actual PM - they're on the scum board anyway to tell you they insist on a PM

kinda annoys me that one

I enjoyed playing with MZ. I prefer not knowing his alignment, but watching his game this time knowing his alignment will probably give me some insights in future games. though I may have forgotten what I learned by the time I play again.

:sad: what happened to Tenuous?

that does sound cool

[irretating]

oh and before I forget.

Irre as scum.............wow that's a shocker.

what?

that's for irre when she get's in here. we have a running joke about her natural innate evil. I, on the other hand, am completely angelic as proven by my constant town roles.

Oh please... if anything, you are anti-type cast.



It was a lot of fun being scum with ob and b.tern, we enjoyed it even if evil doesn't come naturally to us

He has a new sprog. He pops in at TR once in a while but doesn't have the time for mafia right now.

like swimming doesn't come naturally to a fish.

I just thought Ani got lucky for once. He's latched onto me several times when I was town. I remember one game he was so relentless and obnoxious that I put him on ignore for a while because we were filling up the thread with our bickering.

Yeah ani got lucky. He had no clue I was scum, but I was the one being obvious.

I now have a few things to look for in a scum ob game, now. And no, I'm not sharing.

.... I can't believe ob was pulled into this game, then dragged me into it, only for us both to be scum

[oblivion]

I think the thing that surprised me most in this game was that Feck was first town-blocked and then vig-killed. I had him down as a bomb or something. town rushes in where scum fear to tread.
