It's a mad world, my friends, and you're in for one HELL of a ride!

My name is Jeffrey Hope. I was born on December 26, 1989 in Virginia Beach, VA, but I grew up in El Paso, TX and still live there. Sometimes I think I want to get out of here—I'm so bored of this place! In fact, anytime I'm more than 50 miles away, I'm happy.

I first played Mafia as a forum game on a site called Rooster Teeth. I've made myself quite an established presence there, playing every round except for the first, though I am currently trying to get to be the game moderator there. When I came over to MafiaScum (via my browsing around on Wikipedia) and signed up on May 6, 2008, one of the biggest things I noticed different is that, on MafiaScum, all votes are viewable to the public and can be changed by the person making them. On Rooster Teeth you had to send a PM to the game moderator, and once he recorded it you were not allowed to change it (as far as I know, anyway). I'm still trying to cope with the differences, but I think I'm getting the hang of it now.

Origin of the name

As I said, I first played Mafia on Rooster Teeth. The first time I signed up as StrangerCoug was on there. As seems to be commonplace on that site, most usernames have something to do with one of the machinima series, especially Red vs. Blue. Only the former was true in my case: my addiction was to The Strangerhood since, when I started watching the videos and visiting the site, I didn't have a computer that would work with The Sims 2. When I finally decided to join their forums, I implemented the fact that I liked those videos in my user name by making it a portmanteau of that and my high school mascot, which happened to be the cougar. I tried to make my name StrangerCougar, but the site only allowed names to be a 12-letter maximum. I left it as what could fit, and on December 30, 2005, the name as we know it was born.

You will sometimes see "the StrangerCoug", especially when I'm referring to myself in the third person, but the word "the" is not officially part of my user name and is therefore lowercase unless it starts a sentence. Addressing me as "The StrangerCoug" is incorrect.

MafiaScum.net was the last site on which I signed up as StrangerCoug when I still had a cougar to call a mascot; however, since August 2007 it has also been my fursona. (Yes, I'm a furry. Get over it.)

Mafia games outside MafiaScum.net

I do play Mafia on sites other than MafiaScum. Those recorded below:

Rooster Teeth

This is the site I played Mafia on before I came here (and I still play on RT). It took awhile to adapt to the site because of several major differences between the game there and here, most notably:

  • The game pace is much faster on Rooster Teeth. From the start of the game day to the next one is usually three or four days (formerly one week).
  • The first two rounds were night starts, but every round since then has been a day start.
  • Vanilla townies are known as Civilians.
  • The Cop and Bodyguard (the latter actually more like the Doc by MafiaScum terminology) are known in advance, cannot be killed, and are necessarily sane. For the purposes of the win/loss record below, they are pro-town, and the Mafia winning when I was cop or bodyguard are scored in the game record as my being "endgamed".
  • The Cop is always a Day Cop.
  • Replacement players do not exist.
  • Voting is private. Once a vote is made, it cannot be retracted or changed for that day.
  • The player distribution used to be fixed at 10 Civilians, 10 Mafia, the Cop, and the Bodyguard. This is no longer true as of Round 3 for obvious reasons.
  • It is possible for players to get hints from other player's posts in thread; however, the majority of the hints come from the storyline, which in turn often involve the profiles of those playing. The most helpful hints are the cop investigations given the information in the fourth bullet above.
  • Speaking of the story lines, they are often longer and much more detailed than those found on MafiaScum.

This is where you and I get to post quotes by me on MafiaScum that we find interesting. Feel free to add on as desired.

Record

Please note the following:

  • The 7 games I'm playing in where I'm still alive are not counted in the win/loss record or the result record.
  • The 10 games I am or was in that are still in progress are not counted in the win/loss record unless the corresponding game in the game record says otherwise.
  • The 0 games I found myself in that were abandoned are scored in the win/loss record as draws, which in turn are scored as "other" in the result record unless the corresponding game says otherwise.
  • Even if I am confirmed as town, scum, or whatever in a certain game, I will not update the game record to say so until either I die or the game is over, whichever happens first unless the game mod says you cannot discuss your role outside of the thread until the end of the game. This is to prevent any accusations of my revealing information outside the thread that I'm not allowed to. This is the reason why I now use the wording "role not yet revealed" instead of simply "unknown"—it may indeed be known, but you have to check the game in question.

  • The 0 games I am or was in that are still in progress are not counted in the win/loss record unless the corresponding game in the game record says otherwise.

This is to prevent any accusations of my revealing information outside the thread that I'm not allowed to. This is the reason why I now use the wording "role not yet revealed" instead of simply "unknown"—it may indeed be known, but you have to check the game in question. This is especially true for the games on Rooster Teeth, and one of their games actually caused a "discussion outside the thread" accusation by Mr. Flay after its cop posted an investigation and I updated this list to give its result (since it is known who the cop is and that he's sane) while I was still alive.
  • Linking to anywhere on the Rooster Teeth site currently sets off the spam filter on MafiaWiki. As compensation, I use post numbers from the game thread instead. Click on the link to the Wikipedia article on Rooster Teeth above, then click on the link to Rooster Teeth itself, then click on "The Forum" under "Community", then click on "Forum Games" under "Rock Bottom", then look for the Mafia thread in there.
