Woohoo. Finally my gut is right. I can go back to trusting it just a little bit now. ---

Yes, it was me all along! I did it! And I’m glad I did it! And I would have gotten away with it too, if it hadn’t been for you meddling kids and your stupid dog! ---

Good job. I had my moments of Lemur suspicion, but never enough to vote for him. ---

[QUOTE=SnakesCatLady] Yippee! Margaritas and catnip all around! ( **Idle Thoughts** , I thought that Pit thread was about you, too.) [/QUOTE] Hahaha. Good to know I’m not alone. Man, I feel like, from here on, I’m really going to always notice the players that have played in this game now more. Like they’ll be a special group of people brought closer together by a game. Oh and in other news: WOOOHHOOOO. Good to know my gut feeling in this game has only been wrong once (dnooman). At this rate, they’ll get caught. ---

Like they’ll be a special group of people brought closer together by a game. [/QUOTE] Oh, I hear that…every time I see a player’s post in another thread, I get this little vibe of “I want to search your post for scum tells…I have no need to do so outside of the game thread, but I _want_ to”. I have a feeling that will last long after the game ends. 🙂 ---

Know what’s sad? When you’ve been watching the thread so closely, the following happens: “Ooo, look, the thread has been updated! I wonder if night is over? Oh, wait, no… **SCL** is the latest poster, but the thread is now at 1,778 posts and it was at 1,777 before, so **Gadarene** hasn’t posted.” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mafia-the-game-iii-kinder-and-gentler/400527.md?page=88) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mafia-the-game-iii-kinder-and-gentler/400527.md?page=90)
