I was Nightkilled in Firefly, too...when I was protecting myself (it was later found I wasn't informed that I wasn't able to protect the same person twice in a row). I wonder if this is a curse.... PS: For the topic, tell me what role, in what game, you had the most fun playing!

The Sorority President in Evil Dead. That was a blast. After screwing up so many times and taking so many risks, when that final gambit paid off...it was awesome.

It's a curse. No question.
My very favorite role was the only role I had to sub away from. I was Darkseid in the Marvel game that Story and Kat ran. It was a fantastic third party role, but I got a promotion at work and had to drop out of the game to train my replacement.
That really hurt.

Jester in T2 - that was a great set up as well - will we ever see the borda count return?

I definitely had the most fun as a Vampire in the last game. What can I say, I like killing people!

Coroner in C1 of course!
I also liked being super duper overpowered Half-Elf Cleric in Pleonast's other game.
Pleonast gives me cool roles. I like Pleonast.

I like any role I've played where I've survived past the first two Nights. The ones that stand out in my mind are the Martyr secret role in the cult of Sekham and the vanilla scum role I had in You Solve It. My most favorite so far is the third-party role in Alien Taste 2. I still can't believe I 1) survived to end game and 2) was on the winning team. Probably not coincidentally, I think those were the games I actually played well, although being Night-killed early makes it hard to judge so many games. Honorable mention to Dead Bowie ultimate Scotsman role in Dr Horrible. I don't think I played particularly well. More likely, I played so poorly it wrapped around the end and became good play, since I confounded the scum as much as the town. That game was crazy. Jester in T2 - that was a great set up as well - will we ever see the borda count return? Borda count turns into a blatant anti-town mechanism as numbers begin to dwindle. It's ends up acting like an extra scum in endgame. I really love my multi-vote system. I'm never running a game without again. It's pro-Town, but I think it's a lot more fun for everyone compared to single vote. Coroner in C1 of course! I also liked being super duper overpowered Half-Elf Cleric in Pleonast's other game. Pleonast gives me cool roles. I like Pleonast. :blush: Your analytic skills match well with my interlocking role design. I was hoping you'd play in Conspiracy 3. You better not miss the next one I run!

I had lots of fun subbing in as the Seer (was the role Seer? It was an Investigator, at least) in Pod People. I kept hitting scum every time, so much so that I found it hard to believe myself. I also had fun as the Vampire in C3. I was happy to get my first choice role, because it was fun to kill people. I'm still sorry that I killed story on his birthday, though.

I liked Pod People too. I feel I played well until I was recruited. And then, if it weren't for Kat, I could have won the game....
I liked the role I had in Simpleton II, and felt our team played very well despite losing.
And I can't forget my first game, Psychopath I on Facebook and getting the therapist killed.
Even though I was a lowly redshirt, I loved Evil Dead
I think I would have liked Dr Horrible if I hadn't been so horrible in that game.
So, I guess I can't pick a favorite. It's hard to single out one role in one game.

Pod people was a good set up - that should be rerun without the drama and revolving player rooster. I think there was more sub recruitments than in game recruitment.

Although I didn't hold it long, I loved being the regretful vigilante in Alien Taste the most.

Best part ever: The virgin (paranoid doc) in Evil Dead!!
I know I didn't play well in that game - but the role was awesome and the game set-up was unbelievable great!!
Most fun game: Idle's semi-gastard Mario-game. With the win-con changing every day and everyone going crazy when Pede and I started talking about killing Town to win ;D
Most mind-blowing game: Santo Ruggers "Werewolf" game on facebook. My very first and I talked about it for weeks and even skipped sleeping most night, so I could follow the game!
Best game based on Oog-games stuff: My first mini on idlemafia.com - getting to know all of you <3

In general I like all of my Town roles regardless of how well I do. Other than Bladerunner, I've had a terrible track record as Scum (where foot in mouth disease is absolutely fatal).
The only time I actually felt bad about being lynched was in the Psychopaths game because I was convinced that my death would have lost the game for the Town. I suppose getting bandwagoned so many times has given me a pretty thick neck. ;D

The role I had the most fun in - Blade Runner, the SK/ Rogue Blade Runner. That was probably one of the more powerful SK roles there's ever been, with more stuff to do, and I caught some great breaks in that game. I even almost won it.

Definitely my first game ever, as the Scum Godfather in NAF's gigantic Mafia 2 over on the Dope. If I remember correctly, there were something like 38 players at the outset. There were, I think, eight Scum to start - myself, Kat, Santo (then Pygmy) Rugger, FCoD, and some folks who don't play with us much anymore: nesta, Suburban Plankton, Aguecheek, kiwik.
That game was ridiculous. The game was still really new to most of the players, so everyone participated a lot. I've not had more fun since. The second Day of that game was like a full Shakespearean play, beginning to end. There was a sneaky Serial Killer that almost won, a great fake Cop claim, Day after Day of me and Rugger pretending to hate each other, brewha completely losing his crap toward the latter half of the game, and of course, the right side won. :-)

When he saw the opening color for the Apocalypse game, he said to me "I hope Jesus is a serial killer in the game" and I thought "BRILLIANT!" I think the entire NSFW concept spawned from me thinking "how can I get Jesus into a game as a serial killer." My favorite role, similarly, was being the serial killer in the Gastard game. I also loved getting the Vigilante/Immunizer role in the first Alien Taste, it just sucked that I got killed right away. :\

Rennie seems to be cursed, at that. He always dies right away in Alien Taste. Maybe I should pick a different Pack member to be Vigilante/Immunizer. ;D

Don't have him die the same Night he kills a human. It's that which makes the role so bad. It's not just that it's an active discouragement; it's an active discouragement that also prevents the player from making amends, and means he can never win. If Rennie really wants to win, he can never risk using his power. I suggest either (1) making Rennie a member of the Town, so he can win even if he uses his power and dies, or (2) making him kill himself the following Night. If he lives through that Night, he throws his gun away and never uses it again. (That's the way Pedescribe implemented a regretful Vig in T2: Behind the Scenes.) That also limits the potential chaos should you ever decide to put in an Alien Redirector.

That's Degas, actually, and yes, I think that you're right about the suicide delay.
Rennie just kept getting killed without even getting to do anything.

Creepy Guy with a Shovel in Evil Dead was a lot of fun, also being a groupie in Dr Horrible. I've had some great scum roles but I'm completely hopeless at playing well in them - in fact I've yet to win as scum hard as I try

Which one was the one where Winston Smith fake-claimed, got lynched as a liar, and was Town?
