I think my last game with Ringo was Kamen Rider Phalla?
I kinda betrayed him there as I convinced him to grant me my win condition, which wound up being at the expense of the village...
Also, I want to let folks know that I have no intention of running off with everyone's money.
Finally, any extra funds transferred to my office will go to expanding the network. No need to send me everything. A little bit from everyone will be enough to help out immensely.
I would like to suggest that folks continue to explore votes, make bets, and act on personal bids. I don't want to give the impression that you need my permission or authority before utilizing your hard earned money. Things are still flexible enough that I can lean on giving suggestions, hints, and asking requests, rather than demanding orders.
loxx because fuck if I even know whats going on in this phalla
A couple of us asked the same question a few days ago. It is apparently named after a player named Dunadan, who was known for posting lists of people he was "suspicious" of without giving any reasoning or explanation as to why.
I realize I have been very quiet this week, mainly due to a couple things coming up that I didn't expect. You're only voting out a villager, but I know how it looks. I've passed what I can on to the network, so good luck village!

Ah yes, Dunadan019. We did the numbers on his lists versus the RNG.
Virgil_Leads_You hid in the shadows of the warehouse that was the site of the previous week's bouts. Flashlights and lanterns held by members of law enforcement cast lights about the facility in search of the organizer who had leadership suddenly foist upon him. Just minutes prior, MrTLicious had been nabbed, causing Virgil_Leads_You's escape into the building. Where had things gone wrong? So many of his fellow organizers had been killed in the past few days. corvidae was found dead, killed by an untraceable killer; Alegis too was made silent, but by the masked menace known only as Inactivus. Loxx was released from the group in an attempt to get rid of the agents among their ranks, but this did not help in the least.
What Virgil_Leads_You did not know was that they had already gotten rid of an undercover agent during the week's bouts. The Anonymous was in the system as a deathmatch fighter, and though he was a trained combatant, "The Destroyah" was killed in his fight, unable to overcome his opponent. Of course, even if The Anonymous had survived his bout, this would not have made a difference. The Anonymous would still have been taken care of by other means, and Virgil_Leads_You would still be tracked down by the law as he was now. There was no answer to where things went wrong: this was simply the way things were.
Match 1: The Great Wall of China was taken apart brick by brick by the lyrical stylings of Clyde "Ghostface Thrillah" Magilla. Match 2: Pete "The Wall" Johnson outlasted the vicious attacks of The Destroyah in a thrilling and highly contested bout. Match 3: Nobody was more confused than Hercules Atlas Schwarzenegger when Artie "The Art of Darkness" Barowitz deployed his exotic shadow arts to take the match.

Also, there was a certain bit of information being passed around the network last night regarding betting. If you think you have a piece of that particular puzzle, I'd love to hear from you.
Otherwise we'll all have to start analyzing T_A's voting record and nobody wants that...

So they got me. Whatever, it doesn't change a thing. See, they think with this, they can stop us from shutting down their little game. It's so cute. They don't see that we've already won, that very soon we'll put an end to this "underground coliseum". If our betting buddies ever read this, let me tell the rich fucks one thing: your fun is about to hit a brick wall and die. Because we built that damn wall. We came here to see the crash ourselves. And you flew right into it like the dumb-ass birds you are.
You should go back to your Zevon avatar. Better suited to your cynicism. You've been despairing since at least day 2.
I wasn't the only one, either. Day 3 and 4 were real nice, though! ...Relatively. But I'm glad somebody knew who my avatar was!
I'll vote Gaslight as his pessimism is not helpful and I can't vote against a fellow Doctor Who avatar.
Sorry, in the future I'll refrain from calling attention to the fact the village is in huge trouble when it definitely is and try to get everybody to believe things aren't so bad. Just like the mafia would want. :P

Edit: Cripes, these emoticons are terrible.
The general idea is that "Ohnoes, that was a bad night, guys" is a pretty substanceless post that makes it seem like you're participating and helping but, in actuality, not adding anything to the discussion.
Who should have been kicked for inactivity, but hasn't?
Well considering this is Blarney and he is ontop of his game . )(I got hit with an inactivity warning the other day.)
I was wondering if something was up (special role or something). Some of you may remember Arivia in 38th's Planescape's game. So wasn't sure if something like that might have been going on. But as Bedlam pointed out, she voted yesterday.

So, it's kinda suspicious.
As is pointing out its suspiciousness
I have been one of the few people trying to get us to do any kind of vote analysis, as recently as yesterday.
The fact is that I really do think we are sort of screwed at this point, though, and that is making it hard for me to care about what happens from now on. The seemingly near-total failure on the village's part to successfully and productively hire assassins/seers/guards for most of the game - whether due to bad luck or whatever other factor - has fucked us over pretty bad.
For my part, I blew my cash the one time I had a decent reserve on a fairly unproductive investigation and otherwise my bets have all proved disastrous, leaving me effectively broke.
Now we are taking huge losses every night, our network (such as it was) appears to have been wiped out without really accomplishing anything (nothing against them, shit happens and we know how well I did in my one outing as a network head so far), and we've sheeped on too many bad leads (of which I am as guilty as anybody) with only a bunch of aborted bandwagons, half-leads, and muddled voting records left to go on.
So yeah, I am somewhat fed up and I think the writing is on the wall at this point. I realize my comments may not have been terribly productive or encouraging, so I apologize if I pissed anybody off. Doesn't change my opinion, but I'm sorry for letting my irritation get the better of me.

Yeah - I think Alegis voted yesterday, but still got eliminated for inactivity.
Luckily, the day has been extended so I'll be able to do some more checking after I get home from work today.

It's cool - go play a game, and blow some steam off.
Maybe congratulate the mafia players on how well they've played.
If they would be so kind as to link to their proboards to show us how they outwitted us?
Ok, in penance for my absence yesterday, I'm going through the voting records.
Day 1: Baidol
Interesting events: It's Day 1, what do you want?
Day 2: Kias (MAFIA)
Interesting Events: On the Langly flashwagon that almost saved Kias: INANTP, Tayrun, Sportzboy, corvidae, Kime
Day 3: Kime (MAFIA)
Interesting Events: None, really. Seering results announced early killed the voting record.
Day 4: JABMonkey
Interesting Events: Missing mafia on this night due to lucky guards, inactivity, etc. Votes were pretty straightforward.
Day 5: Hullis
Interesting Events: Pretty much everyone voted for Hullis.
Day 6: Loxx
Interesting Events: Again, most peole voted for Hullis.
Disappointingly, TA Voted for the vote winner pretty much every night, and over half the votes were complete blowouts where the mafia can just sheep along, throw out a lone "protest" vote, or something.

Pretty sure I appeared on at least 10 of Dunadan's lists, and I was a villager every single time.

because no one ever kills who I wanna kill anyway *pout*

You can kill me if you want, that's fine, I'm just an organizer with no money cause I wasted it all last night to kill T_A on Virgil's orders.
But we have vote records that we should be combing through and I am entirely too sick to be of any help.
