About me

I don't frequent the forums, except for mafia discussion when I have free time. My self imposed limit is two games at a time. Feel free to PM me if you want to talk about anything.

On October 2007 I had to cut myself off mafiascum for a month, a self penalty to something stupid I did. I'm back now.

Current Status

I'm terribly busy until the 30th, due to a deadline. If you see me posting a lot, tell me to stop :-/

Current Games

Large Themed - Pirates vs Ninjas

Mini 539 - Night 1

Mini 508 - Day 3

Newbie 503 - Day 3 - Nightkilled on N2. Waiting for endgame.

Finished Games

Newbie 390 Townie, Endgamed on night 2. Lost.

First game on Mafia Scum. Lots of replacements, and day 1 lasted forever. Due to confusion, a scum replacement was told he was town, and another scum replacement was told his partner was someone else. The scum turned town became town N1 and was nightkilled, and the fake-partner became scum. (are you keeping up?) Exhausting game.

Mini 473 Urban Dead Mafia. Doc, Nkilled night 2. Lost.

Really enjoyable game. The theme helped. ABR started a successful bus on one of his scum partners, who was playing badly D1. This made me trust ABR for far too long, and fail to protect Oman N1. I managed to find the third zombie, but the Vig was acting so scummy that I thought he was a SK, and decided to push for his lynch first - bad mistake. Zodiac should REALLY have roleclaimed D2. Learned a lot from this game.

Newbie 466 The Revenge of the Newbies, Modded by Thalitha. Townie, endgamed on Night 3. Lost

Second newbie game. I replaced Dr. No early in the game, and played with a very enjoyable town. Managed to find one scum on day two by trusting my guts, then I had to replace out. My replacement picked the wrong choice on day three, but I would probably have done the same. Great scum work by Vitamin R.

Mini 503 Dead People Have Powers, Modded by Max. Replaced on Day 4. Doc, won, survived to endgame.

Game with a very interesting setup. Both the town and the scum understood the setup incorrectly and made several strategic mistakes on day 1. First game where I made a significant contribution to the victory, by convincing the town that I was the true doctor, and managing to pick (and convince others of) the right choice at lylo.

Open 44 Two Fold Mafia, Modded by SomeStrangeFlea. Replaced on Day 2. Townie, lynched in Endgame. Lost.

I replaced on day 2, after a 32 page day one. Even though I lost, I think I did a very solid game, managed to convince most people of my pro-town status, and found out two of the 4 mafiosos on my first read-through. Again I had to defend the "silly one" in a counterclaim contest. The worst thing about the game was Tyler voting on me right off the bat on Lylo because my predecessor pushed him hard on D1. Gogo OMGUS! Note for future games: townies also have to buddy up.

All in all this game had a nice pace to it, and was enjoyable, despite the ending.
