One of mine was in Heroes mafia. I was neutral (I don't actually remember what character it was--and it was on LP so I can't even look it up) and had recruited Bea through a game mechanic. It was towards end game, and we were generally helping the mafia. And everyone knew it. But then, the mafia got a bit over confident, and one player on the mafia in particular who will remain nameless (stopped playing a long time ago--and IYKYK) was really being not nice about the whole thing. And was certain that they had won.Spacedaisy wrote: βSat Oct 15, 2022 12:34 am One of my most stressful and proud moments in mafia was being stuck in BTSC with Llama in Death Note.

I played a game somewhere, lostpedia I think? not totally sure, where I started out a civ and then @Spacedaisy recruited me to her 3P team.
Then, the mafia recruited me to their team! I remember @Kate was on it and @Typhoony and I think aapje and maybe @Tranq. I remember the host but I'll let his name die a slow death lol. Anyway, I had to keep pretending to @Spacedaisy that I was on her team which felt horrible because she's like the sweetest person ever.
If I remember correctly we (mafia) won but the game was chock full of controversy lol! It was the most fun I had as mafia ever, I mean look at the characters that were on that team, but I felt sick about Spacedaisy.
The old days, so full of wild mechanics!
Still so tramatized from that game realizing Marmot was thw turn coat based on my death post. :/Spacedaisy wrote: βSat Oct 15, 2022 12:34 am One of my most stressful and proud moments in mafia was being stuck in BTSC with Llama in Death Note.

So, I messaged Bea to say--hey. I have an idea. And she went with it (xoxo). And we voted with the cigs and won them the game.
Said not nice player was VERY unhappy. But, well, that's what happens when you mistake the game for entirely stats and forget the human element.
At least I think it was @bea? This was over a decade ago. She'll correct me if I'm wrong.
That and my second game ever, when I was Tin Woodsman, a civvie with killing power, and killed multiple mafia to a win, are my 2 proudest.

And one time on rev, aapjee lost his crap due to my wallotext cuz my crackberry's return button was broken. When it was explained to him, he went back to my posts for the rest of the game and added paragraph breaks in them for me.![]()

That is quite a team! And I suspect we may be referencing the same player. Is his name the same as a shoe company?

Great set up!! I love that Vomp is a role. Also, I wonder whatever happened to Link (for whom linkitis was named, a long time ago). Link McCloud, I think?Spacedaisy wrote: βSat Oct 15, 2022 6:01 pm Game details in first post now. Feel free to look it over as you like. Changes could occur, but we will alert you if so.
I literally do not buy that shoe brand because I have such an awful reaction to the name.
