Ways not to play scum: lessons from real life
« on: February 15, 2011, 03:07:41 am »
The Aaron Barr debacle.

Let's keep this topic both light and chill, dudes.  It's about the connection between mafia and real-life subterfuge, not "is Anonymous made of awesome or totally over the line."  It's for having fun in yet another mafia-related fashion.

So.

Let's have fun, guys.

Well, OMGUSes tend to be much more common in real life than mafia...

That particular article made me laugh because of the proposed infiltration and bussing.

Seriously, it has an infight and bussing.  I almost want to know how well they would have managed it...

His main problem was saying he was scum and then making empty threats about it, really.

Incidentally, we need a game themed on this.
