Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

So My Towncore: Jamiet Balki Hamilton Pirate (based on D1 vote) Bona (based on D1 vote and interactions with JustWill and D1 vote) RDR/Dip (based on D1 vote) Sweet (based on D1 vote) BunnyGo (based on solveyness and his helpful read on Hamilton) Why don't you think that rdrivera was bussing on Day 1?

Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

I am up to Page 128 and now I need to go and get something to eat. I will be back before EoD hopefully, but just in case I am not, my scans were: N1: Balki (innocent) N2: Damo (innocent) N3: Worcej (guilty) :O ##VOTE worcej. Or should we assume Miller? I mean, conditional on Jamie telling the truth...

Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

It might reveal who the cop is, though. This sort of thing was also attempted in M87 and fizzled out pretty quickly. Okay, let's chase this out. Pretend (for the sake of argument) that you are the clerk and I am not the clerk. You would list off three scans you made. Presumably you tell the truth (...

Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

I am glad that the emotions of yesterday have cooled off. Yesterday was my course's final examination, so I had to make sure that 450 students successfully took a 3-hour long test. Now I have a bit more headspace. I am going to try to tell a story. I don't know whether or not it works, but it is a s...

Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

It's no excuse, but I have been struggling in RL following the death of my grandmother at the weekend, and I have been drinking quite heavily again. It's no excuse but thank you for not shouting at me. I'm sorry for your loss, Jamie. Losing a grandparent can be very hard. I sometimes tear up when I...

PASSED
real dead white male human born north of the equator before 1960?
I think this will be the key to figuring out the person. Why was this passed?

Re: 2²·5 Questions: Game 283

Interesting, presumably it's the white or north of equator in doubt, probably not the 1960. I know I have answered questions about whether or not my pick was "white" before. In retrospect, maybe I should have passed on those on principle without clarification as to what to do in case of someone wit...

Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

The fact that Sparta has come up with a good reason why Ham could be scum also makes for confusing situation. How can there be strong logical reasons for reading him either way? The reason for my post about Ham is that I started a D3 wagon on an eventual town flip, and I am trying to follow Balki's...

Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

- The two players who were most forcefully arguing to not kill Ham (well, I guess sweetandcool should be included here as well) were the NK and the RB target. I feel like I am living in the Twilight Zone. Was I really that forgettable D3?! I should have worded that better. Your point is taken. I sh...

Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

Some thoughts before I call it a night. There is a lot to think over. - Has BunnyGo claimed clerk yet or not? I got confused. - Okay, here is something that is bugging me a bit. Ham's CLERK crumbs on Day 1 are very clear if you are looking for them. So, why wasn't he the target on night 1? 1) Mafia ...

Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

In addition to my rejection of this plan as a matter of principle, I can't help but think there is something desperately wrong with it. I wonder why it's not standard practice to follow this plan in all other vanilla games? Or is it standard practice and I am ignorant? Is Bunny just suggesting Cler...

Re: Mafia 88: Murder at the Meadery - GAME THREAD

What was damo’s very very strong advocacy D3? I don't know. Maybe I should. But I don't. What was it? Did it have to do with Hamilton? Yes. He begged. Begged us to not vote HamBone. That he trusted Ham’s VT-ness. Why would that be? Well…I stopped voting Ham because I thought damo was cop and had sc...

Re: Twenty questions, round 282

So, I take it Boris Johnson is correct? We forgot to ask if he was born in New York City. If so, next thread will be up in the morning (Eastern US). Yep! I was looking forward to seeing how many questions it would take you, once you figured out he was a politician born in the US, to ask if he was a...

Free guess: Boris Johnson What question did you all *not* ask me? In any case, I did choose a politician, born in New York City before 1967, who is a former head of government of a major English-speaking country, who pursued an pugnaciously isolationist foreign policy while serving in a right-wing ...

Well, we at least have a finite number of people now, but it's a very large number of people.

Current member of US House or Senate?
No.

Has this person ever served (formerly or currently) in the US Congress, Canadian parliament, UK parliament, or Irish parliament (which I just found out is called the Oireachtas)?
Yes.
