Congratulations TexCat. I was completely fooled.

I’m liking this game. It seems flexible and I like that pace and time is more bound to what players choose to do, rather than a pure cyclical mechanic. Pretty fun!

Congrats to **TexCat** alone. I’d decided she was NOT the Thief. :smack:

Can we play again with the same players? Why not? Or we could open it up for a larger game, which might be cool.

Thanks yall. I had a ton of fun!

FWIW I think you made the right choice Wolverine. Prof P was the logical choice.

I got lucky when Mahaloth lied about the tokens early on. And a lie that IRC, Prof, and I all knew was a lie. Being the Driver is tough. You have to figure out what the person in front of you is before you know whether you want to lie or not and what lies to tell. And Wolverine made a good choice asking Mahaloth questions early before he could know what to do.

I thought the pace of the game was great, but we were all pretty active. I could see that just one AFK player could stall it out.

I am glad players enjoyed it. I was not sure how the game would make the conversion to forum play.

I will start another game of it. If Wolverine plays, I will exempt him from being the Godfather. I will link to the new thread once I get it set up.

I was fooled due to **Mahaloth** protesting so much at the end. Good job TexCat.
