meet trouble

So... I'm getting another migraine and I have a busy evening ahead of me. Enjoy another picture.

If I can understand what you've been putting out, you can believe me. Nope. 'Cause I ain't. Huh? Not that I'm bending to any sort of peer pressurizing or anything: 3 to DL festivus (Drogo, HM, trouble) 5 to whoop some ass

Blah, blah, circle of trust, blah. Whatever. You people and your trust issues... is it any wonder I don't like any of you? Besides, when have we ever been successful in getting a baddie just for DLing the quiet ones? I'd like to hear from @saoirse before jumping on that DL just for that reason. I do know that Lis had a visitor last night. Some looking at game play might help me put 2 and 1 together.

@Machiabelly, you will be avenged! Wait... we're not using those movies. You know what I mean. I'm going to re-read this when I'm not cleaning out my DVR, but I think I'm starting to get an idea over here. I'm just gonna need a few things.

Because of the delicate nature of the embroidery and the linen, they had these signs all over, in both English and French. It made sense, being on loan to Bayeux from Tourism Northern Ireland, and who among us doesn't appreciate a good GoT pun? Sadly, the original images are so large, I have to crop them waaaaay the hell down to share them here.

Ooh, a hot toddy would be great! Thanks for the thought, @Drogo. Over in the current game thread, we got to talking about the GoT game and the potential of a Varys/Littlefinger alliance. I started thinking about the pictures I took in Bayeux and had to post these. @BizBuzz, you'll appreciate these!

It really was! Even if I was killed before I could recruit you. Just think... Varys and Littlefinger potentially on the same team? Which reminds me that I have a couple more pictures to post in the bar. To paraphrase Mae West, when @Drogo is good, he very good. When he's bad, he's properly devious. We all know I'm shit at finding clues unless they jump out and bite me. Really? You're gonna put me on that list? Whatever. At this point, I don't like any of you, either. See if I include you in any of my plans.

Does anyone have some of that cold/flu tea? I could use some.... Promise, I'll just stay over in this corner, wrapped up in my cuddly blanket.

Honestly, @JTMacc99, Twilight is a great time for these questions. Not only does it help all the newbies, it can also help those of us who might be a bit rusty.

We've been known to get lucky on Day one DLs and nab a villain. Of course, sometimes that initial luck also makes us think we are quite clever, especially if the villain we were lucky enough to DL was relatively low-powered, because then half the DL votes were from villains!

Yup, I'm caprice. Every so often you'll catch me talking about m. caprice (I don't want to change his name, again. Some of our longtime players might remember him as the trying man or ttm), although... the troubled man could work. Hmm.... I changed my name because I couldn't remember my password. Anyway, you're welcome. 🙂 It's nice to see you back. I remember having some fun back-and-forth with you. 🙂

Yeah, we started it up at the Friendly Mafia Fun site to give mods a non-player-name way to create clues. I haven't done it here yet because I had a bit of a brain fart. BTW, welcome back, @BizBuzz! Back to business, I'd be willing to bet that not all playing characters were named in this first story.

Per our Mod: "The game will use both volumes 1 and 2 for its inspiration and feature music clips (*how can it not?) as well as gifs and perhaps movie clips too!" For the rest of it, I'm pretty much feeling my way around. Heroically, of course, but feeling around. That, and trying to keep from getting my toes crushed.

Ah. I was thinking of my profile from Friendly Mafia Fun. The word you are looking for is "perusal." In other news, I got bupkus but you know I'll come up with something before long.

First, I totally want a coat like Peter's. Second, @Lisin, I've really missed your lists. I noticed that you linked to everyone's profiles. I've not created a profile for this name, but you could link to "caprice" for mine. Yeah, I forgot that password.... Third, I'm sorry I haven't filled in a new profile.

PM received ✔️ PM read ✔️

Thanks for another great game, Bob! And I really am sorry that I completely flaked on everyone, especially you, Bob, because I don't do that. I wasn't kidding when I said that m. caprice's nephew is here for a two-week visit. m. caprice surprised us with an overnight trip to Chicago and we left right after I found out that my robbery attempt became a switch with the witch (which amused me almost as much as it did Bob). Wednesday afternoon, we were driving back when I suddenly remembered that I hadn't brought even my iPad to participate in the game. I was so desperate to let y'all know I was an idiot that I texted HM and asked him to pop in to see what the what was. I added my status, but I must not have made my text sound as urgent as I'd felt since he didn't check on the game. Not his problem. Fortunately (?) Silver saw my explanation as true and we were able to nab us a wolf. 🙂

(After adding italics) Hey, yourself! Thank you for recognizing my boneheadedness. I believe you, CP. I re-read everything this morning and never once saw you trying to say that you started the game as The Robber. That was me. I'm liking this vote and only wish that @SilverStormm was actually "Blue" because I had three Blue Spruces planted in my backyard late this summer. So.... 1 to DL JTMacc (Drogo) 4 to DL MarkHB (Silver, Spruce, a1, meet trouble) 2 to DL meet trouble (MarkHB, JTMacc) 1 to DL Drogo (CP)

Because I'm such a sweetheart? Guys, and especially @SVNBob, I'm so sorry!! m. caprice's nephew is staying with us for two weeks, and right after I got my PM from Bob, m. caprice took us to Chicago overnight and I completely blanked, leaving my electronics at home. Okay, so, I started out as the Robber and paid a visit to our former witch. Sorry, Mark love, DLing me, as far as I know, isn't going to help.

If I'm not too late, I'll play along. 🙂

Oh, now I know!! I feel silly, @MarkHB. I tend to think of it as our webdaughter's funnest gig. Spruce, HM, our old (young) friend, CM, is involved with them!

Sorry, I'm with @Drogo on this. I'm not sure at all where you're going with this.

Looks like a fun time, @SVNBob! For as long as ours goes on, I managed to miss going this year. 😞 *wheels in cake and rum punch* Happy birthday, my dear friend, @The Crazed Spruce!

So, I got to see this. I'm trying to figure out how to share larger portions of the pictures. Still, look at the detail in her hair!

That's a good point. I might not know if I've been switched or recruited, or whatever. That's uncomfortable. Anywho, since TJ appears pretty certain about LC: 3 to DL LadyCalypso (Drogo, TJ, trouble)
