I'll be listening to this in the morning.thellama73 wrote:Indeed I am! It went well. The host was in Boston and the director in Burbank, so I was in a room by myself with a microphone and headphones. I only got to talk for about 5-10 minutes out of the hour, but I think I handled myself well.

Economics was really something epic, I agree. I think that's my favorite too.G-Man wrote:I think my favorite game that I played is still Economics. A lot of good stuff came out of that game: my new zany reputation for shenanigans, my Joker meme, Coward, dog pee, and a healthy distrust of Golden.
That game literally went down to the wire. A Lylo standoff until the last three minutes? Nuts. It sucked to lose but it was a fun ride.
I love that too.Golden wrote:I'm hard pressed to think of the best game I've ever hosted. I don't think I've ever had one go to lylo up to this point. Mostly what I enjoy is wreaking mechanical havoc upon everyone and watch them try and resolve it all. And basically all of my games do that, so...
Fucking Tree Mafia.Metalmarsh89 wrote:Favorite Syndicate game? Oh man, that's a toughy. Death Note is definitely in the top 3 on that list.
The most recent Game of Champions was pretty epic too, and kinda ridiculous. I managed to win as a neutral vanilla survivor.
And to round out the top 3: Hmm...... It's tough to pick a game where I lost. I'd probably go Talking Heads for one of my better civ performances, and an epic game all-around.
Best game I hosted? I'd go Tree Mafia. That had the best civilian comeback I've ever seen. Diiny, motel room, and MP had the civilians in LYLO with all three being alive, and MacDougall and Floyd (among others) pulled off the upset. It was incredible!
LOL, that was so awesome.DharmaHelper wrote:That fucking time Epignosis responded to literally every single one of my posts in a color coded pissing contest in Death Note Mafia was pretty lit

I hope everyone is doing well. I should be getting back to playing Mafia after we are settled in our new home. We now have a scheduled closing date/time for Dec 16th @ 9am!!!

Thanks for the update! Hoping for a swift return to normalcy. And good point about the timing.Golden wrote:A quick update on all things earthquake.
I've ended up 'off work' all week, which is really code for 'working from home'. My building is safe but clearly some of its pipes ruptured, and we have no idea what the damage is or where in the building. We have what they are calling a 'staged reoccupation' from Monday.
They've just announced a building a block from my work building is going to have to be demolished. It's possible it won't be the last.
We are very lucky that this quake wasn't closer to Wellington at this size, in many ways. We are also lucky it happened at midnight on a sunday. We would likely have had fatalities in the city if it had come during the day, given the extent of damage.
Good to hear from you! Annie and I just saw something about the earthquake and were hoping that you and your family were all OK.Golden wrote:Hey all
Just want to let everyone know who hears about the earthquake that me and my family are safe. My city (Wellington) felt it pretty strong and did take a decent amount of damage in some areas, but there haven't been any serious injuries or deaths here.
Closer to the epicentre, the town of Kaikoura which is a very picturesque tourist town seems to be completely munted (the New Zealand term for being completely fucked by an earthquake) and many roads are going to take a lot to repair. There are a couple of deaths in the south island too, sadly.
Not sure either of those universities would even interview me, but you never know. :PElohcin wrote:That would be nice. Duke. UNC.
Maybe I'll apply to a university close enough that we can come by and visit once I'm on the job market!Elohcin wrote:you all are wonderful! We truly love our friends here. And once we get settled, you're all invited to come and visit with us.

Dude, that feels like it was AGES ago. Great game, though to date it's the only game I've hosted on here that I am still disappointed with. Maybe I'll revamp and rerun it one of these days.DharmaHelper wrote:I just now remembered I got killed by the cops in Fight Club mafia and I'm mad cuz I was playing a real good game and never even got to the second phase.
