I think I may resign from this game. I'll decide by morning day 7.
What fun I am having is being sapped by others' attitudes.

I need some positivity right about now.
For the record:, to the folks who aren't happy:
1) Folks do not need to work with me. I asked them not to at the start of the game.
I don't wanna. I am clearly not the only person in a group of 110 who could perform this task. Someone else can be your star quarterback, easily! LOTS of talented folks here. Lots of highly experienced, highly motivated, friendly, communicative, active, cunning people. They really deserve a shot at that role, and if I am competing for such a role, people will likely go for me again based on old patterns. I have to decline.
I directed them to anyone else who would organize groups. I even posted a how-to, so others could copy what I do, so I would not monopolize group formation. I did everything I could, on my end, to make it fair and equitable on folks who wanted to be independent but also wanted their actions to succeed once in a blue moon. And may I remind folks, working with me was always voluntary.
2) I've gotten dissatisfied comments from folks who have not done any successful actions, who have gotten half of their actions to succeed, and from folks who have had nearly all their actions to succeed. This is what is puzzling me. If I fail people, they aren't happy. If I succeed for people, they aren't happy.
3) I haven't asked anyone to do anything they don't want to do; every night I seem to repeat, do you still want to do protections? Still want to do kills? Have any specific career in mind I can help with? And I don't turn anyone away because I disagree with their career path. Whatever people want I help with. You'd think there would be no room for complaint but here we are.
Gosh, not only is what I'm doing hard, time consuming, and pretty thankless, you'd have to stretch your brain into all kinds of funky shapes to come up with legitimate criticism of it, but dang, I'm getting a lot of dissatisfied peeps.
Go do your own thing then. Seriously, I'm not forcing you. And I resent the implication. And I don't want to change the way I play just to make others happy, especially since I haven't stopped anyone from doing anything they want, and I've mostly hit folks who aren't even playing the game. There just is no pleasing some people.

Ungratefuls. (I really hate flowers)
I have sent 2 pms (it was 4, all of them to Xenoneb) so far so I maybe should start to contact people.
[Language please - GH] (oh sorry, it was more a sad expression than a cursing of them)
(edits)
If people are bored they could even try to deliberately sabotage my efforts. It's all an expected part of the game. I'm not going to be offended if people play their own way. It's part of the fun....
You guys aren't my lackeys, if anything, I've been everyone's personal assistant, but if you're feeling that way then... try to stop me! Jeepers! Wouldn't that be fun too? I'm not gonna be mad if people try to stop my plans through deliberate 'disobedience'. I'm sorta surprised more people aren't.

I could get the ball rolling. Some ambitious person could give someone else an anonymous email address, and their assistant can post it publicly.
Then, everyone who wants to throw a wrench in the pizza-led machine can contact that email address and begin organizing like-minded folks to stop the groups I put together. You might even succeed, OMG. You see, it's not even that difficult. Or, you could always just lynch me.
Lots of really tempting options. Go nuts.
I hope this puts this chapter to rest so I can keep doing my DJ thing and running around shooting at people for lols at night. Really, helping with groups was supposed to be a side thing to assist newbies until they got oriented. Dunno why veteran players are turning to me unless they really, really want to.
Anyway, I have a Neutral Avenger kill to write. Someone's getting pied tonight real good, I swear it.

I take that to mean the fatlington pd has been wiped out...that TinCow knew the starting strength.
He wasn't being serious. Hence the![]()
What exactly has you mad this time, Pizza?
There was a leak somewhere because I have never heard of a "lucky" shot that good or precise in any Capo game. I guess we just skim over the fact that there are people who want to join the mafia like Chaotix? People who would easily start vig-killing for that very purpose.
Of course, I am White_eyes:D not TinCow. I guess you thought "I am never right about him, why start now?".Originally Posted by TinCow

Told ya. Join my NotW!
You shoot people. For lols. Why do you beg me to latch on to you like a kitten with a ball of yarn?
Two posts a couple thousand posts and a few weeks apart?![]()

Pfff Princess Bride hommage, that's so August![]()
that was me and it seems that the same is true again tonight. I have one person looking specifically for a vig group on standby - hit me via PM or email (email preferred) with your target and I'll put you in touch. first come, first serve.
(maybe I'm somehow collecting some/all of the people that are, for whatever reason, displeased with ATPG's groups *shrug*)
Yeah, Chaotix and woad&fangs publicly claimed responsibility for killing Blackadder and one of the townies N2, and PMs that other people leaked here (with no reason to doubt those are legitimate) said they were looking for a family to join as soon as they became wiseguys (which they certainly are by now)
There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me
Sign was painted, it said private property
But on the back side it didn't say nothing
This land was made for you and me
Whether its WIFOM (particularly the middle posts) or truth, I won't venture.
