It would be great if Tim@NCEES played with us.

I was super excited to see this thread to try to understand, but now I feel like I understand only 2% better than when I first opened this. 

We have a new round starting on Tuesday, modded by @MadamPirate PE!! You can join and experience the nonsense!!!

I am four games in and I have about a 52% understanding of how to play.

This website explains the game quite a little more than has been explained in this thread. Plus if you find the start of the rounds in the mafia thread, the game mods give a very detailed description of the rules. That I haven't fully committed to memory yet.

I cannot help but believe I would not make it past the first lynching, for obvious reasons.

I find it funny how the admins are starting to take interest in the thread, as if it's something to watch for bad behaviour...

Heyy! That's my public radio station!

Must have been in one of the million posts I was tagged in that I never read. Not reading posts in there is a good plan, @Road Guy. It's worked for me. I believe I am the winningest whiniest player to date.

You never play, so how can you be the winningest player?

I fix'd your post.

Really just giving the OP an idea of what really goes on around here, since that was the question.

i've played like 8 times I think, including modding twice, and I still have no idea what's going on. It's like Whose Line

But with more wood chippers and @Audi driver, P.E.

See, the fact that the vast majority of people enjoy it despite not completely understanding what’s going on is a testament to it’s fun!

I don't believe any of that is true.
