Most of my stuff has been in the gameroom. Won my second game as mafioso, surviving all the way through was pretty fun. Most of my best moments were winning games as mafioso. Now, if I'd only been 3 minutes faster on getting a PM to GH. Stupid carnival... 'Nuther fun moment was the first time a Necromancer got busted out in Netherworld to bring Sigurd back. Nowadays, I get to be the Good Cop to GH and Sigurd's Bad Cops.
Used to contribute a bit to the Main Hall, but alas, it was on its last legs when I got here. Had a good discussion in the backroom once with Sasaki over human rights, not much besides that though.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
Congratulations CR!
Havn't done much except contributing a little to the gameroom community.
What I've done in God Father III was my best I guess but I didn't win and Noble Sons game which everyone seemed to like was failed game taking an unexpected turn.
As for bad memories... Getting lynched, and lynching a wrong player.. I think I lynched CR in the final round once and he was innocent
Hopefully by the time I reach 9000 I can be as impressive as CR is![]()
Only 772 post left to finally make a contribution to the .org.
Edit: blast now only 771!
Before Secura arrived, I added to the femininity of this board.

Good for you CR, that's a lot of quality posts! I'm not sure what my best contribution was; probably adding the first icons/avatars/awards. I think they have added a lot of personality to the site.
Modern civilization is a vast conspiracy against silence
Let's see.... my claims to fame.
When I started here I was a big M2TW player. I was a big advocate of blitz style play, both against lone human opponents and also the AI. I was involved in many different debates on the subject. Then I started posting my blitz campaigns, showing images of what I was able to accomplish with the style, especially the abuse of the Crusade mechanic. I also liked to narrate the quest with funny subtitles. I inspired some other people to attempt the blitz style, and that led to a challenge to see who could accomplish the long victory conditions the fastest. We got it down to like 8 turns or something equally ridiculous, with the HRE, if I recall. I was able to tie but not beat the standing record. Then it was conquering 106 provinces in the least number of turns. After mighty duels, I lost the crown to someone else, Grog, who if memory serves me is still the undisputed blitzmaster of M2TW. He beat me by one turn.... 21 turns he had I think. We agreed it probably could be pushed to 20 but I couldn't put the necessary time into it.
Also of interest was a house rules challenge I posted, which Ramses II CP responded to and made an award-winning AAR based on. https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showt...-Tyranny-s-End. Basically the objective is to wipe out all the other factions while allying with none of them, not expanding beyond a certain number of provinces that you control with your military, not spreading or advocating religion, and ultimately, defeating the Mongols and the Aztecs and turning every single province rebel/independent. An anarchist's dream, perhaps... an everlasting war for independence. Very difficult game to play.
Then I was part of some epic fun in the M2TW Broken Crescent hotseat started by phonicsmonkey. I earned an award for the short story I created which described the eventual fate of my Royal family in bloodcurdling detail. I've got plenty of scars from a brawl or two in the backroom.
At some point in 2008, I was introduced to mafia games. I've been part of, and I've hosted, a significant number of games. A selection of mafia Games I've hosted:
The Futurama Drama, The Full Monty, The Golden Rule, Psycho Mafia, Murder Manor I, Murder Manor II, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Treehouse of Horror, Resident Evil Omega, The Snatcher, Psycho Mafia II, and The Night Santa Went Crazy.
Of my mafia games I hosted, The Golden Rule was among the most interesting and creative, I understand people had a lot of fun with that one. A game which was filled with the most zany role-playing of them all was the Psycho Mafia. Games which involve some of the most epic deaths was my Murder Manor I and II games. A game which I am particularly proud of, writing-wise, as the Treehouse of Horror. A few of those deaths were my favorite Simpsons-themed deaths out of the three Simpsons games I hosted. By far the funniest one was The Night Santa Went Crazy.
I also hosted Resident Evil: Dark Falls, which is still in progress. Read the story here-

Fun begins on post number 6. I consider this (non-mafia) game to be my greatest contribution to the .org so far.
The mafia games are what pushed me from just that blitz guy into something else. Otherwise I probably would have been gone by now since I don't play M2TW anymore. Now I host and play lots of games. Not sure what the future holds, but I would miss the social interaction terribly if I couldn't come here.
