Hey, y'all - checking in and psyched. These games are always epic. Anyone interested in general strategy discussion? Specifically, we have been given the chance to request roles, and it has been indicated that our preferences will be taken into account when assigning roles. Is there a way to use this information to our benefit? I've been thinking about that as well. But I don't think it's a good idea for us to talk about our own requests. I think that can force Town into lies for their own safety and lying Town is not a good thing. Sure, we can look around at each other and, especially for those we know or think we know well, we can try to make guesses about what their preferences would be. I have my doubts about our ability to make accurate guesses, but I have no objection to the attempt.

Aside from catalyzing conversation, which is always good, I can't see how much that would be trustworthy can come out of it.
If we get some people willing to disclose their preferences, it is wifom as to whether anyone coming forward is motivated to be truthful (even those of us who say that we did not submit a list) until they're dead. Even then, if someone comes up as town or not, there will always be the possibility that they decided to lie about their preferences as town, or pull a Jack Sparrow and be truthful as scum.

Evening all confirmimating and waiting for the jello wrestling to start. You may have to wait awhile, as total lost is, sadly, not playing in this game. No Total....? But... why? I weep! And... another game with this new Meeko kid. Christ.

The current postcount titles date back only as far as Dr. Horrible Mafia, two games ago. If Pleo doesn't do something about them, I might. Post Count progression is half the fun of playing on this board. And if we don't have a RoOsh, Meeko will have to do as a surrogate.

I can't multi quote. Does anyone else have this problem? Select the text and press the 'add quote' link in the bottom right. Boozy? I totally don't get you. Love and Hate on me? Select some other text (possibly in a different post) and press the 'add quote' link in the bottom right. Click the 'reply' link for the thread and then at the bottom click the 'View Quotes' link. Insert the quotes you want. Note: this is the only way to quote from locked threads. Note: doesn't work if you add a quote in one tab (for example a search) and then hit reply in another tab (with the main thread open). Note: the 'Link to this post' doesn't work from a search, you can use 'add quote', insert and preview and then copy that link, but that's a bit cumbersome. Now, back to a quick nap (actually work ) before the Day starts.

[Are you sure? I was positive that it was a horse tell. ;D Neigh! I'm sorry. I failed my Will save. I think I have something like a -10 modifier vs puns, rising to -25 if it's really bad.
It runs in the family.

I've never been a fan of silly board mechanisms, so I have no plans. Although, since you reminded me, I took out the gastardly junk from censored word list.

Dang it, MHaye, don't make me mod-kill someone on Night Zero. I'm in a good mood at the moment; the next editor will not be so lucky.

I don't have a "view quotes" button?? And Cat in a suit? I know, right? And I'm playing in Blocky's Mini and I've offered to start a Mini on Giraffe, too. What was I thinking?

Don't think we are yet "" in game "" but, the OOG is needed either way.
Hey guys, people that know me, people that wish they didn't know me, and people who this is my first game with. [Does that cover everyone? I hope so.]
I just got an Interview with an Ad Agency. Next Week no less! \
Wish me luck!

Oh, Boozy, you gotta know I tried. I just can't believe that girl. Well, I suppose you make a fine replacement in the meantime... you still like calamari, baby? Boozy? I totally don't get you. Love and Hate on me? Don't confuse recognition of your utility for love, Meeko. Or general abuse for hatred.
