I see what's happening here, this is all an elaborate veteran breadcrumb.

(I actually don't know if veteran or little old lady with a gun are roles you guys use here, I've only seen it in instant message-based Mafia games)

I think I've heard of a veteran once before, but not little old lady with a gun, although the latter I'm guessing might be what I've seen called a PGO (paranoid gun owner)? Just going by the vibe, lol. I know terminology varies widely between forums but usually there are multiple names for the same role.

Back at that point in time, I think I was active on a number of forums that had mafia communities but somehow never discovered them, maybe they didn't exist yet or maybe I just never looked. Would've been good fun if I'd started playing then, though, but instead I discovered forum mafia during the pandemic through one of my gaming communities. I drift between several forums these days, depending on where games are running.

This seems like a really terrible reason to vote. Metagaming and whatnot.

I am less concerned with TPC being scum now after more posting.

However, I do find it a bit sus that Mae kind of swooped in for a vote for him after very little engagement elsewhere right after TPC started getting a fair amount of attention, then seems to have disappeared immediately after I called her out for it. Personally I would like to hear more from her.

We used instant messenger here for scum chats and mason stuff right up until the time I stopped playing.

I can’t remember that game specifically but it’s highly possible. I was all over this back in the day.
