    I am proud to have played party to the mafia machiavellian proboards antics.

    Also, people should check out how that game ended just before the final vote close, it was pretty epic and coordinated.

    A vote for INNS for Blackest Night phalla.

    And of course, Kime is always evil. Except in Hyperion phalla, where he probably spent the entire first day laughing his ass off.

    The best part? That's your post after you edited it. :P

    I edited it because I misspelled something. But I still stand by that one. Kay was rude for no reason and basically told me "don't try to play in this Phalla. Just sit back and sheep." Sorry, but I've never told someone that the key to winning a Phalla is to not play and let me do all the work like Kay did. That "outburst" was for a good reason. The last.fm phalla was me pissed off that I knew how to get the wagon off me but was stuck at work with no way to post. So I didn't get any help to get the wagon off me and I died. I was pissed as I felt (and saw that I was wrong once I calmed down) that someone in my group could have saved me without risking it. I was revealed as mafia 3 days before and was single handily saving my own skin each day. I was mad because when I needed help, I was left to die by my teammates. Sure, it would have been risky to save me, but I thought we could have ended that game the next night if I didn't die.

    Historically, green votes are nominations for a real vote (in red) the next day, other off-color votes are directly for the winner that day.

    Oh, sure, I can see where your coming from - but, really, it's these three line that propel your post in that thread from 'standard exchange of flames' to 'I would like to thank the academy...'
    Be glad that I'm not going to be an asshole and out everyone of you in thread.
    I'm withdrawing because I'll be damned if I'm going to take that from you.
    I rather work with Arivia than you.


    That's the sort of talk that makes me want to ensure that you get included in every mafia from now until the end of Phalla to tickle the unintentional funny bone in me.

    Hey Kay, am I right in thinking that your comments that led to sami's second outburst were in some way inspired by the way that sami acted in his first outburst (in last.fm mini?).

    INNS is the funniest. I think from an outsiders point of view.

    Dunadan doesn't like to share his logic :)
    I actually take a more positive outlook and say that his 2 out of 6 or whatever he usually gets isn't horrible and points such a target on himself that it usually clears him as "not-mafia"; sadly he rarely shares reasons for suspects - which could potentially help if another person has lingering doubts about someone he names but nothing concrete to back it up.

    Granted I thinks he improved lately in terms of explaining his logic, but I haven't played much recently. I just remember seeing a game (a month or two back) where I was pleasantly surprised to see him explain his reasons.

    Finally, a Plum vote I can get behind!

    Really, when he does explain it, it normally makes sense, but it's just presented really abrasively

    Well, there was that one time Zandy gave us a Critical (IRC dicebot) generated Dunadan style list and it was more accurate than the list the Duna himself provided.

    Well, first he moved the ship into point-blank range with the Labius, then he almost immediately doubled-down on insisting that votes should be cast when most of the village had decided against voting (casting suspicion on himself that got him bandwagon'd & airlocked, leaving his ship unable to move away from the Labius and it's dangerous Cutter Beams).

    How about nobody knows anything about Zandy, so therefore we come up with fascinating theories about him, none of which will ever be proven right, but constantly become more and more fantastical and therefore more and more plausible as time goes on?


    Also, I do not understand the giant crab picture....

    Okay, so looking through the games I played in during the past (my first) year:

    Gumpy for being the Mouthpiece for the Mafia in Kill Dr. Lucky - Relevant Post

    Ringo EPIC REVEALS an hour before vote close due to not accounting for DST adjustments on the second to last day in Dissidia - Relevant Page. The original reveal post was deleted, but sadly still seen, so I reposted it halfway down the page. Imma nominate it for the Epic Reveal Category too!

    Simonwolf Murders All Six of Our Seers in Dissidia - You'd have to read the whole game to truly experience the awfulness, but here's Rawkking with the Relevant Post. Fun fact - Simon was also the Network Head!

    I'll Second Teucrian's inability to read in Musical Chairs Phalla

    JaysonFour for being the loudest and wrongest villager ever in Vanilla Phalla - Relevant Post in his own words. The best part was when he informed us all of how suspicious he was of Romanqwerty. The seer mouthpiece who had just died green the night before.

    No, he was correct in maintaining the vote because there were several votes already placed and it was late in the day. Can't rely on every villager to have successfully withdrawn their vote and the plan would fail if even 1 failed to check the thread and withdraw vote before closing time. Not to mention when you do silly vote stuff like trying to tie the vote right before deadline or withdraw votes the risk for mafia vote control is higher.

    The drifting wreckage of an exploded Super Star Destroyer hotly disagrees with you. :P

    Alright, I'll grant you that maybe his argument was correct, but doubling down and getting the wagon on himself when he could've easily got out from under it by taking back his own vote and flying his ship into point-blank range where it could do the least good was not a great plan.

    But Day 2: "Let's tie the vote" worked so well...
