By the way Weedy, I still think that convoluted post at the beginning of Today was the scummiest thing I saw all Game and I can’t believe no one else would follow me on your wagon!!
Fuck. I’m sorry everyone. I guess there was no right answer after all. Stanislaus, the rat bastard, was right when he said my vote wasn’t all that decisive. Once he and Weedy placed their double-votes, nothing any of us did would have been right – unless by some miracle USCDiver, gnarly and I all ganged up on Weedy.
Stanislaus and Weedy deserved the win. And I should’ve listened to USCDiver when he voted Weedy.
I do thank you for letting me be the last townie killed, Astral. Thanks very much for the terrific color and a vexingly difficult game.
I have to give props to Stanislaus, for being ice cold, a good leader and solid strategist. (Basically the last two days have been all his strategy, though I went off-plan voting for choie.)
Red made brilliant claims.
Thanks to Astral for running the game, all the fun colour, and the epic ending! It was a really involving, sometimes nerve-wracking game.
Hmm. When you read the scum thread, you’ll see that quite a lot of the time I say “Hey, what about this slice of fried gold?” and Weedy says “No, let’s do something sensible instead.”
I loved being part of this team. We had a really long way to go to get to here, but a combination of self-sacrifice, judicious camouflage and some button-pushing improvisation got us past the sticky moments.
gnarly, you had me bang to rights. I realise the problem with being super-townie is that eventually being alive becomes a scum-tell. choie, I think you showed some serious skills once you took the training wheels off. And Pizza - loved playing with you. It was really good for us to have a new style thrust upon us. (Oh, and I didn’t say anything at the time because I was feeling tense, but your case on Astral was hilarious.)
This has easily been one of the most fun games I’ve played here.
For you and anyone else who may be interested and have missed or forgotten previous plugs, Special Ed and Total Ulla are currently signing up players on idlemafia for a variation of mafia, The Pod People of Pleasanton. It’s a setup that was created by no less than the lovely jsgoddess, I do believe. Quite intriguing.
Good job, you rotten scums with your cursed roleblocker. Ah well. I look forward to the next iteration, Astral.
Congratulations to the great Scum team: Weedy, Stanislaus and Red Skeezix. That they prevailed despite several slips by their first-time-as-Scum teammate, the Beguiler, makes their victory particularly awesome and sweet.
And congratulations to the Town team. Your smart play kept the game close and made this such a good game.
Is it Night-time now? Absinthe for everyone, with champagne chasers!
Fabulous game by the Scum team here, aided and abetted by some bad play by Town, myself included. Scum played us like a fiddle, and this is a seriously well-deserved win.
