The Curse of Kagemusha stems from 2006. As you might know, Kage was the sole winner of Mafia I (the first mafia game on this forum) as scum. You're probably also aware that scum don't have the best track record in my games, particularly my vanilla games. Oddly enough, their fortunes usually took a turn for the worse right around the time Kage died in future games, whether either by their hand or by lynch (the most spectacular instance of this was when Kage got himself lynched on D1 in Mafia IV and then the two mafiosi utterly collapsed, ending the entire game on D3). Because of this, people were very hesitant about killing Kage as scum for a while. khaan experienced it firsthand as scum and actually left him alive - it didn't work as Kage basically singlehandedly got him lynched on the last possible day to save a town victory.
Anyway, I need a freaking drink.
