From about Days 6 through 9 I might as well have been.

Yeah that's an important difference. I "grew up" in RYM's mafia community, where 95% of the games feature a single mafia team.

In my experience, town-to-mafia ratios tends to be best in the 4-1 or 7-2 range, which is closer to one fifth. This can vary by setup type, but only in rare circumstance have I seen a truly balanced game at 3-1 (the champs tourney setup of Season 2 being a valid example).

I didn't really think he was conceding. I was just being provocative. I said the same thing about Epi earlier in the game.

Nobody else seems to do that stupid double-hyphen styled dash thing I do -- why do I do that? It looks dumb.

I've still never been a baddie here except the time I had to be a totally different person (SVS 2).

I'm sorry everyone.

I chose the thirty minute challenge and followed it up with the ten minute challenge deliberately. I thought, "Surely this second challenge will crush their spirits."

No spirit crushing occurred in my prison that day. No sir.

I seriously expected you to follow that up with a one minute challenge.

Bedroom antics stay in the bedroom.

Someone nominate this for Sockys.

I don't think he uses socks anymore now that he's married.

It's my understanding that many married couples engage in bedroom antics while wearing their socks. Is Epi at that age yet?

I definitely didn't. The only prisoner I had pegged correctly was Ricochet. I thought he was as obvious on Day 5 as I was.

I been thinking 920077 was Russtifinko. Clearly not!

Score.

You are also purple.

My color seems to change with the wind.

Since Sig was searching for the rookie cop and Quin was searching for his lover (Nero) I got them mixed up and we sent Sig and Nero a message saying they were lovers and found each other. Luckily, I realized my mistake before either of them opened it and we deleted the message. Oh, and Quin, I felt so bad for you. Your lover was alive all that time and you just couldn't find each other!

Lol, Epi's reaction, was "Fuck, Jay is a prisoner!"

LOL, yeah, Epi PMed me the moment JJJ started supatowning in the main thread and said something to the effect of "Fuck, JJJ is a prisoner. RIP my team."

How I wish I could have lived up to that.

Truth be told, for most of this game I played like a bag full of fresh dog shit. Being essentially unlynchable certainly affected my play -- I was much more aggressive and tried to be more deceptive than I usually would be since I stood no real risk of people suspecting me for it. I think I worked myself into a frenzy a bit too many times and it didn't yield the best results. But it was a learning experience!

Hey what's this?
