I know I certainly got mine. It's a long one, too.

And here it is:

Askthepizzaguy:

You are the Grandmaster of the Irish Republican Army. Your task is to recruit as many people to the cause of Ireland as possible.


Irish Republican Army

The Irish Republican Army (IRA) (Irish: Óglaigh na hÉireann[1]) was an Irish republican revolutionary military organisation descended from the Irish Volunteers, established 25 November 1913 and who in April 1916 staged the Easter Rising.[2] The Irish Volunteers were recognised in 1919 by Dáil Éireann (its elected assembly) as the legitimate army of the unilaterally declared Irish Republic, the Irish state proclaimed at Easter in 1916 and reaffirmed by the Dáil in January 1919. Thereafter, the IRA waged a guerrilla campaign against British rule in Ireland in the Irish War of Independence from 1919–1921.

The original IRA split in 1922. After the signing of the Anglo-Irish Treaty in 1921, members of the IRA who supported the Treaty formed the nucleus of the National Army founded by IRA leader Michael Collins. However, a high proportion of the IRA was opposed to the treaty. The anti-Treaty IRA fought a civil war with their former comrades in 1922–23, with the intention of creating a fully independent all Ireland republic. Having lost the civil war, this group remained in existence, with the intention of overthrowing both the Irish Free State and Northern Ireland and re-establishing the Irish Republic declared in 1919.

Should you fail in your task to save Ireland, they will either revolt and go to the peasants, or they will be conquered by England. Inishmore is in your hands.

Please select two people to be your loyal henchmen. You have 48 hours to respond. Remember, if you are killed in battle, Ireland is finished. Hence the title of the game: Inishmore, a combination of Ireland and Finish. Plus more, not sure why I put that in there. Probably for authenticity. I will remind you that you aren't allowed to post this PM in the thread, because if you do, it will be considered WIFOM and you will be lynched in the very first round, thus causing Ireland to be defeated before they can even destroy any English or rebels.

By the way, I've always been your biggest fan, and I think you're very witty and clever and deserving of all the fame, praise, and adulation you get. You're the original Blitzmaster, your jokes always tickle me pink, and then green, and then back to pink, and then green again. I love your mafia games, you're the best host evar, and everyone should really join the Capo de Tutti Capi III game by following the link in your signature line.

Give em heck, Master Pizzaguy. No one would ever suspect you're the Godfather anyway.

While I appreciate the sentiment, my friend pevergreen, I must decline your magnificent offer to make me the leader of all of Ireland. I am too much of a loyal townie who would never, ever betray the town* no matter what happens** and I'm a really trustworthy person who would never use such obvious WIFOM***


I am not now, nor have I ever been, a member of the Irish Republican Army. But I didn't say anything about England though. I'm probably the Godfather of that, or at least a henchman. Blatant Capo III ad, in my signature.

[pevergreen]

Damn pizza...now I have to find another Godfather.

[taka]

huh? was that just pizza refusing to be mafia?

[Askthepizzaguy]

Yeah... Of all the players here, I am the most likely to turn down a Godfather role.

[taka]

but.... doesnt that defeat the whole point of mafia? you're meant to play to the best your abilities as your given role, pro-town or not

[ULC]

*goes off to pout*

I have a handful of daisies to handout after learning this was up for signups but I missed it...*grumbles and goes to say something, but a torrent of daisy makes him gag, forcing him to the ground in agony of the sheer volume of flowers as he slowly suffocates to death*

Hey taka.. I think ATPGs joking

[Askthepizzaguy]

No, Beefy, he's right. I am the Irish Godfather. This is just WIFOM, my friend. You sooo won't lynch me now.
