Happy New Year!!! Happy New Decade!!!!!!!!!!

Don't you guys think it's suspicious that Epi voted in the poll and didn't say anything? And where's JaggedJimmyJay anyway? I need permissions.

One (2011), two (2012), three (2013), four (2014), five (2015), six (2016), seven (2017), eight (2018), nine (2019), ten (2020).

Happy new decade in 2021.

This kind of bullshit talk is the same as those dicks who say Pluto isn't a planet.

Hell yeah, it's integral to my entire ideology.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Wed Jan 01, 2020 3:33 am If we treat days the same way, then the new days does not begin until 1 AM, meaning that all New Year's celebrations around the globe every year are an hour early.

Absolute hogwash. Might as well be bathing pigs.

It must be so satisfying, when everyone is having fun and celebrating a new decade -- basically a meaningless excuse to just celebrate -- to be the guy who says, "Ha! See you next year, morons!" and sit alone smugly while everyone else has fun.

I think it's a good idea.

Creature wrote: ↑Wed Jan 01, 2020 12:34 pm Yeah, it's a good idea to make players not play the game

That is not what I believe. I believe players will play the game.

Five days later?

How long do you think Mafia games last?

I don't know who's suspicious. ISO's are pretty small, but nothing inspires me when I look through them. Vote timmer for having one word and two images as his ISO? Vote Wilgy for being Wilgy (and nothing else)? Yawn.

Also, there's a signup thread for the 2019 Champions Game.

Dom, I've been wrong about you in a few games recently, I think. Have I been right about you in any?

What's the point of this question/interction?

Just what was on my mind when I read Dom.

Scum LC does not underwhelm.

Thanks, I think?

I don't know if I got lynched or not. Sorry I couldn't be here, had to put a roll of hay out in the dark and the tractor got stuck in the mud, and I had to use a chain winch thingy to get it out.

You guys could at least tell me if I ended up with the most votes.

Yeah, you did. Town or scum? Write a poem about it.

Sheriff Bob and Father Ron
And Jimmy Smith that cuts my hair
Stevie Jones that mows my lawn
Then hangs out in Center Square

I greet them all so happily
And say "See you around!"
And as I pass, they all agree
"That Long Con sure is Town!"

Not I'm, not. WTF makes you 1/5 of sure of it? I've barely been here.

Well, thanks for the shenanigans either way, Sloon.

Well, I just almost got lynched. Feeling a bit tender.

Tony, why are you going specifically after the Fearsome Four? Do you agree with Epi that there's likely a baddie among them?

I don't really want to go after them. They all came together to lynch a baddie Day 1, in hot-potato fashion. That's good enough for me to want to look elsewhere for the next lynch.

Well, excuse me for thinking that when you said "Somebody threw Creature under the bus", that you thought someone threw Creature under the bus.

Hey, not sure why I have a couple of votes, I'm not actually really caught up. Go ahead and Lynch me if you like I haven't been able to devote the same amount of time you guys have to this game, I'm sorry.

Dragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2020 11:06 amIt's fine. Sorry for being a bit dramatic too.
I mean, what is a mafia game without some drama? =p

---

My difficulty with the game right now is that I see no real way of reading Mac, Sorsha or LC. I cry evertim.

I'm sorry about that. I'll try to try to get better caught up and involved.

Dragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2020 5:10 pm Yeah I agree LC sounds manipulative in that post.

I don't see it.

TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2020 9:39 pm so WIFOM me this... does scum Mac ever make a drive by attack on Dom without any support?

Sure, I don't see why not.

Epi started off gunslingin', firing votes all around. Twice, his vote hits Creature, which looks a bit like a light distancing tactic. Other posts for the early game are off-topic decade-discussion.

He slows down on the voting, but is just firing off accusations with no backup or followup, or just casual off-topic. I see no reason why he can't be bad. He tried to weakly claim Civ because "he never busses", and he had some Creature votes among his early RVS. The only reason I can think of for doing that is to try to draw attention to himself. I don't think Epi's bad, despite his low-effort play so far.

DDL and Dyslexicon voting for an inactive who has stated he'll be able to be more active starting tomorrow.

Town.

i prefere to wait for Mac to play. Sounds genuine in his 5 posts

This is sketchy. Nothing to say earlier about it, but when the Mac train gets derailed, Michelle's opinion on the matter blossoms. "Sounds genuine" is one of the worst cop-outs for an opinion on someone that I know. [VOTE: michelle] aubergine

No thanks... and last time I was at two votes and someone else was at three, I got lynched. [VOTE: dom] aubergine

TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Mon Jan 06, 2020 12:48 am Alright let's do this again:

Day 2 (rough) post counts and impression score by player

47 - Dizzy - 2.5/5 - got into some fights, asked a lot of questions, said he would sheep Timmer
36 - DDL - 3.5/5 - had a CFD complaint at the beginning, then argued for lynching Mac, gave arguments for/against LC. Not much towards EOD.
35 - TSP - 5/5 - I internalize every word this man says
30 - Sloonei - 2.5/5 - Did some EOD stuff but more memorably pushed a case on DDL
27 - Epi - 2/5 - lynched Dom, agreed with me on Wilgy, is that it? Some catching up points
22 - Michelle - 2/5 - catching up, attacked Quin which was funny, threw out a few points
15 - Sig - 0/5 - don't remember anything
12 - LC - 2/5 - threw a random attack at Epi but then said he was town, voted for Michelle for a weird reason then like 5 other people
10 - Wilgy - .5/5 - asked me why I was town
8 - Timmer
2 - Mac
0 - Bimbo

Well this was just a true showing of townie activity I must say. Maybe I need to adjust my scale.
Does anyone think I have a wrong impression on impressions? cause I really don't remember much happening during day 2. I was busy though so I wasn't paying as much attention.

DDL and Sig are the main standouts I think. I really don't remember Sig having an input today at all.
Sloonei and others town reading him -- why?
I think there was stuff EOD day 1 that I didn't catch.

I believe Michelle replaced Bimbo.

MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Jan 07, 2020 12:44 am I am voting for the Sloo. Come on guys you should too.

Nah. I like the idea of a little Mexican Standoff. [VOTE: Macdougall] aubergine

Wait, can we say Mexican Standoff? CFD went off the table, so I'm not sure...

MacDougall wrote: ↑Tue Jan 07, 2020 2:54 am I am 100% certain Sloonei is scum. Lynch me or him idc. Just lynch the other one next.

So, you're saying you're both town then?

This game got pretty quiet.

@drwilgy which of the current Lynch candidates is most likely to be bad?

It was just a quick off the top of my head thing from the bathroom at work, because of the dead thread. I didn't really have time to put a deep post together.

Wilgy was sort of the first name I saw.
