But ATPG’s not even in the game yet …

Oh, you meant peeker. Nevermind.

I think the occasional also calls for a  
**vote: Hoopy**.

**mod question: ok so i get the basic premise that this will be fun like swimming at the playboy mansion kind of thing. and we really have no clue what, if anything we can do (should be in ed and meeko’s wheelhouse). but if there are scum and they submit multiple kills on a given Night. what the fuck happens then?**

how come i just know that **sach** and i will finally be scum together and the first Night will go something like this:

**sach** : kill **peek**. he is just intolerably unacceptable. plus his data storage mechanism seems to be in need of a defrag. maybe death will accomplish what counseling could not.

**peek** : kill **sach**. woot the fucking woot.

</div>

actually since we get to kind of figure out what we do my first Night action (or fuck maybe i have a Day action) is going to run along these lines.

she looks at you from across the room. you make eye contact. she approaches in kind of a wanton manner. you engage in small talk. she starts stroking your thigh. you are somewhat taken aback but she is persistent. she starts snuggling on you. at this point the power of the goddess is rampant.

**peek** : ok **gad** Night/Day ? action. i fuck **buffy**.

Uh, those aren’t lengths, those are return/error codes:

01 is “normal, above average.”  
I had to look up “00010011111111000011110000111001111111”, which apparently means “more topologically convoluted than the coast of Norway”.

and since we have some new folks (to me at least) it’s always kind of safe to get the penis possesor as opposed the penis enveyor thing out of the way. and now we can add foreskin possessor or mutilated at birth (unless you did it later in which case you are truly a sick puppy) category.

i’ve got a dick and the marbling was removed at birth.

Not sure what you mean. Can you clarify? The scum will still have their team kill in addition to whatever night actions each individual player has (and by the way, there are no day actions).

Episkey, I say CoA or maybe POG Corral, though Risk is obv entertaining too.

Gnarly, I’ll add you to the player list fairly soon. I’m posting from my phone, which is slow and hellish. I usually can post from my Blackberry, but for some reason that IP has been banned.
