Re: Death and Taxes: An Economics Mafia [DAY 2]
curses aren't super common on RYM, but they happen. we had a game in which a player was forced to write every post as a poem and it had to rhyme.

Re: Death and Taxes: An Economics Mafia [DAY 2]
G-Man poses a difficult problem for me. normally with a player like this, i think the best solution would be to apply immense and arbitrary pressure upon him in the form of votes. but since votes here are not changeable, i am not going to call for that strategy. he has us in a position of total gut-...

Sloonei's examination of fingersplints was interesting. he came to the same conclusion i did essentially (that she is mostly a neutral read). he is right though when he asserts her content has been a bit BR-centric, and that her other stances in this game are much less clear.
