Dang. Sorry about that Krayz. I need a drink badly. (For the 2+2ers, we often “go to the bar for drinks” during Night when we can’t talk about the game.) ---

The one feather in my cap in my mafia history is vigging the only scum in ragnarok but I still hate the game. ---

_DEAD_ good game guys. apologies if I seemed rude or condescending, that’s just me being silly. though it might have been best that I got lynched early considering some people did not appreciate it. That was a damn fucking cool role though, kinda pissed I didn’t get to play it out. ---

> [@special\_ed](#): > > The odd thing is, in that game, my antagonizing of Meeko wasn’t any different from the games where we weren’t Scum together. So you say now, but clearly there was _some_thing different about it. Though it may have been the way Meeko responded more than your behavior, in thinking about it. I no longer know. That was ages ago. ---

Someone’s gotta die day one, and with these crowds still sanding off their rough edges against each other, coulda been anyone. Sorry to see you die, though. ---

I’m a stay at home dad these days but my kid is in pre school now in anticipation of me going back to school so I have some free time until classes start on the first. Does it count as strategy to point out that I corrected the top 3 wagons gaff almost immediately? I mean seriously guys. ---

I work a 45 hour week myself, but most of the time I can keep the window open and keep track. That’s probably why 1/2 my posts are 1/2 irrelevant I copy what I want to comment on in Word insert my comments at it as I have time and eventually post it. since 1/2 my day is at the computer I have time . sometimes… After the incident early on where I hit submit instead of preview = I preview in word first ---

On a lighter note I think I am having puppies as I type Now to different game mechanics. Where I can see that the whole fake peek thing works in one place. If it is not common practice in another it can really cornfuse-a-player. Damn it’s pool night and it appears i’m needed NOW. If I’m reading things right D2 could start at anytime after all night actions are in ( am I correct here?) I must dash look forward to replies (and it’s my dog having the puppies you you guttersnipes) ---

> [@Gadarene](#): > > **MODERATOR NOTE** > > Sangaman will be subbing in for Meeko. \*\* Sorry about this gang. \*\* The speed of this game is too much for me. I wanted to pop in and apologize, but I see that Day 1 has already ended :eek:. I was working under the assumption that Day / Night was the SDMB standard… Yeah, If I wasn’t already subbed out, I would have asked for one at realizing this. The timing for this game, and the timing for my real life just do not work. ☹ ---

And for the record, I have a job, but some days are busier than others. Yesterday was busy, today was not. Thankfully.
