Chronos:
Prof. Periwinkle , you do, of course, realize that that entitles me to move to Paddington Station? Well, I mean, you obviously didn’t realize it when you posted that, or you wouldn’t have made such a blunder, but the rules are quite clear.
Of course, the move to Paddington Station would be easily countered by a move to Harrow-on-the-Hill. I realize that the Harrow-on-the-Hill move would have been forbidden by the rules prior to the 1967 addendums by the Earl of Harrow, but they’ve been pretty well accepted now by the Committee on cross-town moves.

Prof.Pepperwinkle:
Well, it’s a beautiful nonday for a ballgame here at Mamma Mafia Matriculoricum and Hot Dog Stand. sinjin tossed a line drive to EnderW, who bounced it all the way to the 50 yard line before MHaye tagged him with the penalty mallet. HookerChemical swooped in with a 72-point Bingo play, causing crys75 and Red Skeezix to throw him over the ramparts, where he was supposed to have been caught by Meeko, who was actually checking out the submarine races where Suburban Plankton rammed into Inner Stickler, probably by accident. This resulting fracas gave Thing Fish the break he’d been waiting for, doing a double bogey on hole #29 and allowing him to kick Winston Smith’s ball all the way to brewha’s secondary goal. ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies then bought the ball, tripped Dante G in a regulation foul, but stumbled over LightFoot’s right foot, which made a fumble. After Nesta arrived with the jai alai sticks, and Plumpudding rolled a keg of Bavarian Finest onto the field, Pleonast nearly attained Second Ascension, but the blinding lights from scathach’s bagpipe-mirror distracted him, allowing Sunny Daze to score. AngeloftheNorth then roundhoused Hoopy Frood, cascading him over raventhief’s wheelbarrow, barreled into Normal Phase, which pingponged Normal into Hockey Monkey, who had just shown Chronos a red flag. While bufftabby attemped a Statue of Liberty play, septimus had the actual ball hidden in the back of jsgoddess’s catapult. When Drain Bead systematically fired it at Captain Klutz, it entered No Man’s Land, giving sachertorte an extra base and deducting all of Total Lost’s three primary markers. Nanook of the North Shore then rolled a gutter ball, hitting Hal Briston’s twin pins into Khameleon, who raised his dark sword and charged. At this pre-arranged signal Sario fired six warning shots into Prof. Pepperwinkle’s head, prompting guiri and BillMc to simultaneously lynch the lurkers and call for a No Lynch, resulting in the arrival of Idle Thoughts in a gondola, dropping grenades and flowers on the field. hawkeyeop, previously unnoticed as he was disguised as Askthepizzaguy, grabbed the ball from DiggitCamara, who outran Precambrianmollusc, then jumped over Koldanar, who disputed the logic of TexCat’s vote on Toejam due to the fact that it was Zeriel’s previous vote, and not Boozahol Squid’s that prompted Colby11 to release the mechanical AutoChef in ginsu mode on an unsuspecting Lakai. DaphneBlack turned for a moment, but was forcibly ejected from the game by Johnny Bravo. As the evening came to a close, it was left, as usual, to Biotop and snfaulkner to provide color commentary long into the wee, wee hours, and to try to determine, who, if anyone, had been to the last to have seen Peeker’s scorecard.
And then everyone was eaten by giant mutant ants.

Ah yes, giant mutant ants. Good times.
Only the other two. I am immune because that is the power I gave myself.
Idle_Thoughts:
I have no life.
You do until you are killed in game. Patience, Idle, patience.
ToeJam:
Rule Clarification: So in the above post:
which did I vote for? **JSexton **(because Idle is not in the game) or did I vote for the Mod Idle ?
Or did I automatically unvote by casting a 2nd vote and thus vote for **JSexton **for a different reason?
No, you must unvote in red to unvote. Your first vote would be counted and your second one discarded.

Giant radioactive ants.
Well yes, I think the radioactivity was implied – else how do you get giant mutant ants?
I feel bad for a mod trying to balance a game properly if it has large mutant (radioactive) ants, because the ants always win. They even eat the damn jester.

Someone has to eat the jester, lord knows no self-respecting werewolf would do it.

So has anyone ever actually played a game with a jester, or are they mythic disparged characters from Mafia once played by a friend of a friend?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen one in a game, but considering the what the role is , I take that as a win.

By that logic, mutant was implied by giant. Thereby proving that all of our time is worthless to be pointing these things out. If only there was some sor to of…game…we could be playing instead…

Giants are not necessarily mutants. I think if you want large to necessarily imply mutant, you would use behemoth. My choice of giant here required the additional adjective mutant to provide the needed exaggerated menace and to explain the carnivorous tendency. I think you can see the difference.

Isn’t this just what a jester would say to throw off suspicion but leave lingering Scum alignment doubt and thus bring on the desired lynch? FOS Sario .
I think Idle Thought’s Super Mario Brothers game had a Jester role in it.

Interesting. What happened? Did the jester get lynched?
Terminator had a jester

NETA: Ok, why did I have to misspell it, and why was I suffering the delusion that it was actually a legit game… And oh my god, you mean to tell me I finally have grasped Numberwang and what makes Numberwang an actual thing? And that Calvinball is closer to this than not?

Ok gang… Time for Meeko to go full Meeko:

What if the game has started, and it’s all Cube / Hunger Games / Belko Experiment?
.
In that case, I claim Kazan, give me my Gum Drops, and let me be, Wapner comes on at 3:00 and I ain’t got no time to count match sticks.
