Yeah but it was after a Winston pick!

I had no knowledge of whether the game had even started yet (the ESPN app showed nothing yet at the time right after I posted, whether it was right or not I couldn't tell). I also wouldn't base a pick off the first minute of a game anyway. I picked Carolina as a "Lock" in that Thursday game where they had a lesser quarterback.

Either way it's up to him. I'm wasting too much time on something this trivial. I think it strikes a nerve to see my integrity questioned in general.

Calling it late is one thing. Don't call it late because I was actually watching the game before I decided to pick it.

Mm I don't have time to linger around so whatever happens happens. Rushjob picks~

Carolina Panthers

Late

I know.

I've also seen him allow slightly late picks before, especially on these London games.

I posted that either right before it right after kickoff. For some reason I thought it started at 10, my alarm for work this morning was naturally set for 9:30.

As (mostly) an observer to this community, I think the way that last game went was a tipping point of sorts.

I view mafia as something that often brings out the worst in people, myself included. This certainly also includes Blade, whom I would say it applies even more to than myself.

I feel like a lot of people have been shading more towards the darkness lately in this community, and that last game is what made some people especially the hosts) realize this.

There's a lot of subconscious unease in the air about the game of mafia. If you wanted to "save" the community, the best thing to do would be to wait for a fairly significant time (at least a couple of months before another mention of it) before trying to reboot mafia.

It's that darkness that causes the bulk of the fatigue for players. It's that same darkness that cripples me so much I had to take 2-3 games off at a minimum before playing again. There's a reactive/crisis part of me I've shown exactly one time in the past year out of mafia. I show it multiple times almost every game of mafia. I feel as of right now I have already gotten all the positive I can get out of it.

This is also why the players who barely/half invest generally have longevity, like Pj for example. He's one of the few people detached enough from the game not to be totally poisoned by it, except he gets treated like garbage half the time for that approach. I'm not innocent in this either.

I personally think it's just an inherently toxic game and that a lot of people in this community have more or less outgrown having it in their lives. I'm not sure that's a bad thing, to be frank.

I have to get back to work and end this now, but if I had more time I'd probably have more to say.

Personally I just don't want to inflict this upon myself again unless I feel I have a reason to do it.
