I’ve been gone for hours, and I come back prepared for the worst, and then RQ turns out to be scum, somehow. YAY!!
Thanks everyone who did the right thing…maybe I’ll have my chance tomorrow. No thanks to me, of course. I don’t even know what happened. I think “decided desperation” was aimed at me, though, because that’s particularly apt for how I’ve been feeling all day.
And now, we drink! Long Island Iced Tea, please…because I’m getting wasted.
Err well since everyone knows my role anyway, and I can’t contact him by other means…
Gad can you clear some space in your private message folder? My PM keeps bouncing.
Cleared!
Something I just realized – if I’m correct in my assumption that the recruitment has not yet happened and will happen tonight, and if I’m correct in my assumption that there were four scum to start with, then just what the heck is the delay?
I’d have to guess that the mafia board is kinda slow at the moment, what with only one user, so let’s go! Make your kill, use your recruitment, whatever it is you’re planning on doing.
If I’m wrong about the above assumptions, and there is discussion going on, then by all means, talk it over. But if we’re down to one, then stretching this out till the end of your allotted time is kinda…well…scummy.
Can you tell I’m itching to get this going again?

Nooooo! I need time to think! Otherwise, I’ll be in no shape to get my “decided desperation” on!
(OK, hurry up, scum, but I hope I get at least a few more hours to construct a suspicion matrix or an evil Venn diagram or something. You guys? You’re killing me here. Figuratively, I hope.)

:eek: “Time to think”?! In the hours that scum will be deciding their next move?! Talk about the mother of all scum tells!

Yeah, I guess that assumes that I’ll be, you know, cognizant.
(Actually, I just wanted to say “Venn diagram of evil.”)

If they had the same problem I did, it might take a while for one of them to check and get a PM across to Gad.
Alternatively the remaining scum might just like torturing us.

And if Hal’s right, maybe they are waiting for a new inductee to join them…

A less sinister motive has just presented itself from mafia IV. Apparently Gadarene’s busy for the next couple of days, so he might simply not have picked up his messages yet.
Of course this leaves us all to suffer…
[QUOTE=Gadarene]
*The town is still shaken by the bizarre deaths of zuma and Idle Thoughts earlier that morning, and the cloistered atmosphere has become increasingly oppressive. As the overcast day approaches night, the townspeople’s debates over who to lynch take on an air of decided desperation. Accusations of duplicity abound. Finally, the sun hangs low upon the horizon, and the town makes its choice.
Rachm Qoch, a member of the Mafia, is dead.*
The next day will dawn at 5:25 p.m. my time on Tuesday; please have your night instructions submitted before then.

Haha, that’s funny stuff. I imagine mine for M2 was somewhere around the percentage that tirial and diggit have… I had like 250-260 when that game started.

Oh blast - I’ve sacrificed my hard won lurker status for a game thread (Oh well, its still less than one post a day I suppose)
And to let you know, sorry but my posting will be erratic for the next few days, due to revision (exam on friday).

372 posts in 6 years? I’d call that lurker. Hell, even if it weren’t, for the fact that more than half of them came in this thread alone, I’d be willing to keep thinking of you as a lurker–I didn’t realize it was such a desireable status.
Ha-ha! I wasted–proportionally–less time on this game than anyone else! I win! I win!

Well, I see he’s online at the moment…any chance you’ve got all you need and you’re going to posting the update any moment, Gad? Huh? Huh? <baits breath>
Ten more minutes, and then I’ll be away for five solid hours. I don’t know if I can handle the wait! Any chance of a response before 5:05? What if I wait until 5:10? 5:15 is stretching it, but…
No, I have to go…OK then…I guess I’ll have to figure out how to use the internets on my phone, from the anatomy lab. God, this game has gotten to me!!
*It is dawn. You are standing in the Village Green. Six other townspeople are here.
You are carrying: Nothing but a profound sense of paranoia
Available Exits: North South East West Down*
The day ends at 5:15 p.m. my time on Saturday. There are seven players left, which means that four votes are needed to lynch.
