I LOVE reading you guys playing this game, though I would be no good at it if I played. You all did great folks! This is a game of psycology and deduction, and I'm no good at both... if I played, I probably would have died on the very first day.

That's about what I figured. I was sure I was a goner, so I had to decide who I should kill for my last hurrah. Arki/Utena tempted me, just for the Fatal Attraction factor, but then I thought I'd post something on the last day like "Utena, if we just kill Juri, then we can be together!"...in the end, I just picked Cerise to avenge my comrades.

(*Is very late again*) But then you would have to deal with an angsty Juri ghost for the rest of your lives. But it looks like I got your Utena in the end. She symbolizes Shiori, so close enough.

Yeah, I'm going to make a new thread tomorrow then give it a few days to pick up characters. I want to get a decent balance of characters to make the game fair and spirited and in my usual overzealousness I keep playing around with things. That and I'm still considering basing it on this.

And I imagine I'll do better as a moderator than a player. I think my endless bathering didn't really help the situation, and I could've played more seriously.

Oh, God, yes, that O'Reilly segment is terrible.    Definitely worth basing a game of Mafia on.  I'd love to play, and my brother has said he'll sign up just to join the game.  (Don't worry, he's an Utena fan too.)

For what it's worth: After the game had already started, I read up on Mafia theory at mafiascum.net, where the consensus is that three Mafia is too many for a nine-player game.  (Three correct lynches and no more than one mistake is a tall order for the town!)  Three Mafia is better suited to twelvish players.  Just so you know!

You just have to rub it into IRG mafia's face, don't you?

I guess we just suck...

And here I wasn't going to sign up for the next game, but...that concept looks like just too much fun!

Haha, then it's good we won, and yeah. I plan on keeping the numbers low but I -might- add a miller just to keep things interesting, plus I think it'd fit well with the setup.

But I was innocent! You don't really believe harmless little Wakaba tore the student council president limb from limb do you? It was that witch Himemiya striking out from the grave!

But Mikage died pretty early on in the game, which means that one of you two were the real evil master mind behind all of this... But was it Mamiya, or Wakaba that was pulling the strings behind this...?

Or perhaps it was both of you.

Er... Yes, it was all my doing. *Starts playing with two puppets that look suspiciously like dollface and StormCrow*

Not unless you ask nicely, first.

What? No Arki puppet? That's probably because she can control me without one.

Well, you are Utena, after all.

This is going to haunt me for the rest of my IRG life. I do kind of miss my Utena avatar and I have this strange urge to color my hair pink...
