ok, then i will not talk stategy just kind of general mafia knocking around.
what would be your just overall general observation of mafia dotor who?
i mean, just in general, if a certain player is going to reach a conclusion based on how a certain individual flips (either town or scum) what would be just kind of a generic conclusion? not specific to this game, of course, because that could be considered strategy. but just kind of in general mafia terms. based on other games, not this one.
and heaven help us if what i think just happened, happened.
Tell you what: we’ll talk about it tomorrow. Let’s try and have a nice, low-post-count nighty-night (particularly since I’m posting from my phone since ye old wife has usurped ye olde computer).
In the meantime, I’ve always pronounced your name “pee-ker-pa”… I never put saw “cpa” and put two and two together.
oh, fucking hell. it’s what i thought.
I was wondering if, when, and how we would get to that.
Electronicwaffle is my longest running name on the Net. I had an idea for a piece of art that I wanted to do, the title came first, and the art was to follow. I’m not much of an artist, but I like the name too much to let it go.
I just never really had any discipline early one to use one name over another. It’s kinda hard to undo certain things like that, in their respective communities. As a general rule, the more extra curricular I get, the more likely I will be to use Meeko over Waffle. Waffle is on my Yahoo, Amazon, and other ““Real”” sites. Not that SDMB isn’t real, but, I think you know what I mean to say.
Reminds me of a comic I once saw. The Delorean is bashed up, having hit the Tardis. Caption reads “It just appeared out of nowhere!”. .
Welcome Doctor Who!
I got my user name because I went to USC and I was a diver when I registered way back in 2000. I’ve long since moved on from that part of my life, but I still like the name.
Oh yeah… User name.
Funny story actually: I am a medical doctor and my real last name is Hu. Hence, “Doctor Hu”. Except when I registered, there was already a “Doctor Hu” on the board, so I used “Doctor Who”. I’d never even seen or heard of the TV show until I heard about it on the Dope!
(note: none of the above is technically true. But it’s a much better story than “I’m a fan of the TV show”)
Did you ever struggle thru that last turd about Nox that he pushed out?
last 2? If only. He published another!
Apparently I was unaware of that was, and Chronos denies the existence of the hodgepodge that makes up the 6th and 7th book. I understand
NETA was=one
This kind of stuff is really, really, really annoying.
Nice.
Welcome Doctor. Can I use your screwdriver?
Um…names. Snickers was my cat’s name back when I signed up. I had just had to leave her at my parents house - I’d moved into an apartment that didn’t allow cats (but that did have short term leases. It was pretty much my only choice. Bummer, that). Then when I tried to take her back, Dad had pretty much fallen in love with her (and the feeling was mutual). Rather than stress her out again, I left her where she was happy.
I feel rather like Indiana Jones: “You were named after the dog?”
It doesn’t help that I have a hard time thinking of anything clever when registering for stuff - most of my accounts or emails are some combination of my initials and last name, but I didn’t want that for the SDMB. So I took Snickers’ name.
She’s named Snickers because she’s a calico tortie. As a kitten, her colors were more muted and pastel, and she was snickers-colored - her blacks were the chocolate, her browns were the caramel and the nuts, her oranges were the nougat (the 5th form of matter!). A snickers-colored kitty.
Switch the first two letters of Brain Dead and you get Drain Bead. It’s pronounced like the jewelry, not like it rhymes with Bed, though. The pronunciation was because at one point it was an illustration. Don’t ask me to explain an inside joke between 9th graders when I’m now 32 years old. I don’t even really remember how it exactly came about.
and it’s funny draino. because everytime i read your username i think of bread or a toilet unclogger for some odd reason. odd how it plays out.
What about:
Nanook
One And Only
Merestil Haye
Red Skeezix
Cucuy
Gadarene
Natlaw
These are the names I’m curious about. 
Nanook is from polar bear. Long story there.
The of the North Shore part is from when I was posting on Snopes, around 99. I mentioned in passing that I was living on Long Island at the time, on the north shore. So some people there started calling me Nanook of the North…Shore.
We can jump the gun and talk about how we found the dope.
I was a direct path from eeggs to snopes to sdmb. Never posted on Snopes, but saw a link and the rest was history.
