**vote Bobby Bonilla** That shit just ain’t right. He retired 15 years ago…I don’t know who he got to negotiate that deal for him, but I’m pretty sure he hangs out down at the crossroads… ---

Yes, we will let you know what is going on at the start of each Day. This is not a Bastard game in any way nor is it a Gastard game. Our job as moderators is to help you all have fun.

which were never great to begin with. Can we please bold our votes as well? It’s been 10 years (almost) since we started this thing and I am not the spry 20something I was back then anymore. It’s not a rule, but it makes them easier for me to see if I am doing the vote count. Also if they were on a separate line I would also appreciate it. Notice this is only in black type so it’s not official or anything, but it would be nice. ---

For the record, I can’t speak for **Idle** , but I personally would consider it cheating to look at the previous text of an edited post, and so I will not do so. And it’s the norm for Scum to have their own board (or boards, I guess, in this case) where they can discuss strategy. Masons (if we have any) may or may not have such a board as well, and sometimes there are roles that allow for the sending of private messages (forwarded by the mod). ---

> [@MHaye](#): > > There have been cases where Mafiates have posted in the game thread messages meant for the Mafia board, then deleted the text. Generally, this got them lynched because the only reason we could think of to edit was that they named names or exposed strategies, and therefore were [del]witches[/del] Mafiates. > > It’s always a problem because we don’t know what the text said if we don’t see it pre-edit. I suppose Chronos and / or Idle Thoughts could tell us, but why should we believe what they say? > > That said, it’s explicitly legal, so any lynch argument must be based on what the lost text said. That, we are not going to know, so I request the moderators playing the game not to abuse their Ed-given powers to look the edits up. > > Well, since the meals need to be cooked, someone has to do the numbercrunching for the caterers. So the Mods pretty much have to tell us. Totally didn’t catch the typo from this response… I thought you were matching my non sequiturs in kind. ---
