i apologize for the slight delay, i've been working more than usual the past few days (covering everyone's shifts is always fun). setup should be done and ready to go either late afternoon today or tomorrow at the latest. thanks for the patience!
I swear I'm trying my best
--Expect me to be V/LA from 10am-7pm PST every Mon, Wed, Thurs, Sat, Sun due to work--
@VenmarL Take your time. As long as I have an universal Strongman Vig shot on D1 that's OK. Everybody dies and I'm the only one standing, and whatever my alignment is we get to win (I'm not selfish, so carrying my Town/Scum team isn't an issue for me).
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
WUT?!? Nero was top tier roman leader. It's a shame he hasn't been in civ yet.

Venmar has broken a promise to you by not getting out roles by late afternoon.
I may be bored doing discovery demands at work, and really want to start this game or go home and play Civ VI... Maybe.

HAHA!
I kinda skimmed his wiki page yesterday. And it was saying that some modern historians question the reliability of the negative sources on Nero. And it was also saying that Nero was popular among the commoners.

Modern politicians don't have anything on the politicians of the Ancient Age. They would do anything to discredit an opponent, and when they could not discredit, they murdered.
