May 2008 Doperville Mafia, a clean sweep by the scum team of\*\* bufftabby, cckerberos, Hoopy Frood, and peekercpa\*\* of blessed memory. I guess I can’t not join this game, although I can’t imagine what it’s going to be like to play with such a massive crowd. So IN! ---

My first game wearing big mafia pants ( after the lighter game that\*\* Idle \*\*introduced me to) I remember being schooled by \*\*Special Ed \*\* ( what ever happened to him?) and many others but Ed sticks in my head because he was tough on the n00b II seem o recall being characterized by the experienced at the time as " Meeko’s evil sister" I don’t remember if \*\* Peeker \*\* was in my first ‘real game’ but I did get to play with him---- I created the ‘Parti’ series of games in his honour after he transitioned - players drink all day and play poker all night \* I thought he would like that. ---

My first game was Batman. IIRC, none of the four of us had played scum before that, and I think it was cckerberos’s first game. peekercpa’s ballsy claim of detective was a think of beauty. I thought he was crazy for doing it, but it worked out. I don’t know how he managed it but he was the king of surprisingly effective strategies that seem to go against everything traditional wisdom would dictate. I miss the bastard. ---
