Shout out to the time Turnip Head didn't know how anagrams work

I miss Turnip Head.

[mention]Turnip Head[/mention]

Looking forward to his inevitable return to mafia.

When should we expect yours, [mention]DharmaHelper[/mention]?

I remember Wes! I didn't talk with him much at all though, but he's on my Facebook as well. Someone should invite him around here.

Same here.
Thanks to you both. That means a lot and I really appreciate it .

Now I can go back into semi-retirement for a bit with a good feeling. Don't expect me to play any big games for a while, work doesn't allow me to keep up in the early stages of the game.
Semi-retirement is acceptable. No one needs to retire and never come back, that's silly and a little too dramatic for my taste. I lost my job and moved back in 2012 and my life totally changed, and I had no room in it for Mafia... so I took a break. No big goodbyes, just "no time right now" and I was gone for a bit. Then, when my life had stabilized, I came back.

Never goodbye... just "smell ya later".
Excellent post.

LOL, that's the best.

You flatter me. Though, I don't know if it can really compare to some of my recent wins (Star Wars and A World Reborn come to mind) and classic wins (AG2 and Shawshank), but I appreciate the sentiment nonetheless.

That's true, you played really well in Star Wars as well. I wouldn't doubt AWR but I wasn't playing that game and didn't read near the entire thread so I can't possibly have the right perspective to judge your performance.

AG2 and Shawshank were both pretty great too, you guys owned it up in AG2. Feels like that was ages ago, like another life though. Crazy.

You better not. I think your performance in this game might be the best I've ever seen from you, at least in quite some time. And that says something.

Thanks Epi and LC for the good time. Thanks hosts for being evil enough to include false info in the logic puzzle. I was so fucking close, yet so far.

Thanks Mac for coming after me Day 1

Thanks Matt for saying I lied about my first curse not being the Riddler's doing, and then thinking I was lying about saying it WAS the Riddler, when I really said the complete opposite. Like what the hell

Thanks Enrique for making me think you were Alfred the first couple of days, only to suddenly accuse me of being Alfred and I was all like WTF! Thanks MM for eventually making me realize you were Alfred, only for you to be NK'ed.

Thanks Sorsha for poisoning me and never "curing" me, I can't believe you did that, I knew your secret the whole game

Thanks DH for giving me an impossible riddle and the worst punishment of all time. Chrysanthemums warming fuck you.

I guess we were too good at lynching mafiosos while the inmates were too difficult to get lynched. The only one I managed to get rid of was BR, and she won while I didn't lol.

Sorry I wasn't a better sidekick, bud! I had a feeling from the very beginning that you were fellow Wayne Manor, glad I was right.

Matt wrote:Btw, here's something ironic...

Dom was going after Golden quite a bit, and I thought Golden *might* be mafia after his stubborn defense of Bubbles, and I didn't want Golden to die yet because I knew I didn't have enough victims. So I target Dom in the hopes that Dom goes after Scarecrow instead of Golden. Dom reveals he was Scarecrow'd. Everyone lynches Dom for being Scarecrow, game ends, I lose.

I wasn't going to be lynched, Matt! You should have had more faith in me. Even though I'd offered my head up I was pretty sure no-one was going to take me up on it.

Did you target someone on day 5 or did you always skip that day with the idea of keeping the lie in your back pocket?
Actually, I accidentally forgot to send in a PM on Night 5. Then, when coming up with who I was "Scarecrow'd" with, I noticed my first post on Day 6 I was going after MP out of nowhere, and thought "Perfection". I don't even know why I went after MP. Again, anything I posted was pretty much bs (as usual )

Epignosis wrote:You guys do realize that the poisoning was fake, right?

Yes, but it still freaked me out. :P

So Sorsha's the one who poisoned me Night 1...

Revenge is a bitch, Sorsha.

Just kidding, I don't really revenge target. But still... that was a jerk move. :P

Also Bullz, sorry I didn't listen to you bud. Well, maybe I'm not really since it means I didn't win, but I don't think I deserved the win anyway. :P

Also, hell of a game played by Dom.

You were my first town read, but then you kept nagging at the back of my brain as if I made a mistake so I started questioning your motives, but then you would seem super genuine again, etc. I could never nail you down.

Wow, game's over? Nice job, winners! Mafia went down relatively easily this game.

I apologize for my relatively poor performance, I misjudged how busy I'd be and how active this game would be. Needless to say I won't be playing again for quite some time, but instead I'll still be hosting and trying to talk more with you all in the OT sections (so please visit the OT sections!).

I'm nonetheless somewhat proud of my plan to get myself lynched so I could coast the rest of the game. :P

I'm Batman.

This is probably the most difficult lynch of the game; I feel like we're just shooting around in the dark.

Sorry Bullz, I just don't have any large reason to believe Dom is Scarecrow over anyone else at this point, and he is reading genuine to me.

I have paranoia re: Enrique being Scarecrow, but I think Typh's case on LoRab makes the most sense currently, so I'll vote there. Sorry if you're not Scarecrow though, LoRab.

So my next question is... who got scarecrowed on Nights 2, 3, 6, and 10? I thought Dom said recently he had been, maybe he was 10.

Yeah, I was Night 7.

Still strikes me as odd timing because I'd figure the Scarecrow would have targeted me right after my no lynch (Day 4), especially considering they targeted me with needing Batman dead.

Let me double check.

Thanks juliets! Sorry if I'm out of touch; I haven't exactly been totally into this game as of late, so by all means, if such a list exists already that's awesome.

It'd be helpful if those who claimed to be Scarecrowed also told us the Night they were targeted (maybe they have and we haven't compiled it), perhaps the targets can be made better sense of if they're arranged in order.

For example, after my no lynch, I'd expect Scarecrow to start targeting people to need me dead, but not before.

Perhaps we can pinpoint someone who seems as though they may be most likely to be lying that way.

Otherwise, I'm not sure how to hunt for this guy.

Fair enough.

Enrique wrote:I have no idea what's not to believe but okay. I have no intention of lynching you if that's what you're worried about.

Why not? I just mentioned earlier today I'd sacrifice myself if enough people need me dead.

Enrique wrote:
Matt wrote:The targeted and their targets...

Golden - Mac (Bullock, Golden?)

Mac - ?

MP - Batman

Matt - Boy Wonder (MP)

Bullz - Scarecrow

Dom - Boy Wonder (MP)

Enrique - ??? Looked through your ISO Enrique, can't find who you were targeted with.
Robin as well. Part of me was kinda hoping that the Mafia would kill him so I didn't draw attention to it, but oh well.

I don't believe you.

DharmaHelper wrote:An important distinction even I overlooked

Win condition being met =/= End of game being triggered?

Yeah, seems end of game happens when all GCPD or mafia are gone, regardless of who else has won/lost win cons. Pretty typical of Epi I'd say, starting with when he hosted GoC '14.

Dom wrote:At least two.

If it helps enough of you win the game, I may consider just sacrificing myself, unless we have a really good Scarecrow lead.

Man, how many people need me dead?

S~V~S wrote:Yay for no death. Boo that someone was Scarecrowed.

Do the Scarecrowed people feel comfortable saying which role they are scarecrowed for?

If possible I would rather free up peoples win conditions with a Scarecrow lynch.

I had a thought (that actually woke me up last night, I am so pathetic) but I have to pull some quotes and have to run out the door, so I will do it later.

If anyone has any other thought, now might be a good time to bring your craziest conspiracy theories to the table becasue I think we're talked ourselves into a corner.

I have been scarecrowed for Batman. Lol.

Golden wrote:The only problem is at what point do you decide who is in the bottom 10% or 20%. Maybe it is that if people don't post for a certain period of time, they are 'marked for death'.

Conversation should be moved to drawing board. I love the idea, but think it is probably a baddie-favouring mechanic unless it is a baddie role.

I agree.

But just wanted to say that my lurker punisher in Talking Heads was a baddie role... and ironically couldn't use its power for over half of the game due to the mafia all being in the bottom in an incredibly talkative game. :P

I 100% approve of roles or game mechanics that punish lurkers, and absolutely love "The Bottomfeeder".

The odd thing about my Scarecrowism is that I wasn't targeted with it right after my lynch survival. It was a couple of periods thereafter. And it was directly in opposition to my win con (which is why I found it amusing). So I don't know what to make of that.

So if you all want to lynch Falcone suspects next, I'll follow that.

You know what though, seriously, if I lose because Scarecrow made it to endgame after all mafia were killed and he/she targeted me with this role, then so be it, that person deserves to win over me. I don't deserve a win this game anyway; I've done nothing.

Haha, yeah, depends on whether you are the role that Scarecrow told me I need dead. :P

Typhoony wrote:Purely from gut I think Lorab is Falcone. 2Nd choice would be Matt or Enrique.

Also I think Dh is more likely to be the Riddler than Scarecrow actually. Juliets is my #1 for Scarecrow atm.
I agree re Juliets; let me ask a question of the Scarecrowed~ do any of you need Typh or me dead to win?

I don't... think I do?

Wow, nice lynch. I vote we lynch all the inactives next, then if that doesn't net us Scarecrow, find Scarecrow, then find Falcone, end game, we win.

Oh, I see we're lynching Bubbles. That works for me.

Bah, I'm low on time.

Who should I vote for?

Sorry for being inactive, I'll check in after the next phase has started in Turf Wars.

EBWOP: Like, who checks in after a week of not showing up and acts like they know what's going on in the game by casting an informed vote? She gave no sentiment like "I have no idea what's going on" or anything; rather, she seemed to have a clear agenda.

I don't know about any of you, but after not posting for a week in a game, there's no way I'd feel informed enough to make a vote, especially as town.

Dom wrote:MP what do you think of this post that Golden made?

Golden wrote:I think the best point against Bubbles is that she actually has continued to turn up despite the fact she mostly isn't checking in on the lynches. So, if bubbles is lynched, I do have some hope. I just feel like she always gets lynched and comes back town for basically the same reasons.

I'd agree with that sentiment. What really pinged me the most about Bubbles is that she gives the impression that she's engaged but she's giving nothing to really work with regards to understanding her thought process.

I do recognize she often gets mislynched, but I think that's worth the risk at this stage.

What do you think?

I think it's about time we lynched all the inactives anyway. Death to inactives!

Dom wrote:Let's lynch her and find out.

I'm cool with that.

Nice result!

I wonder if Bubbles is on sabie's team.
