Who's the greatest player of all time on this site?


Players who I consider slightly better than myself and remember being top-tier:
Jeep, Vi,
Mastin
, Glork, Regfan, Faraday, Thor665
Sorry, but Mastin is nowhere near a top mafia player.

I think roflcopter is one of the consistently best players I've played with.

I'm actually the greatest mafia player of all time. Just not all the time.

Like I had that one post that was just... Damn. It was on the ball.

Anyways.

Not in quantity, but two or three at a time maybe. Games that are full of (perceived-to-be) strong players tend to be intolerable overlapping ego trips.
Absolutely. A good game should have 25% great players and 1-2 VIs.

But not always... I've been reading an old game with the best playerlist.

Amrun, Cogito Ergo Sum, Debonair Danny DiPietro, Ghostlin, glowball, jasonT1981, Kublai Khan, lewarcher82, Llamarble, Quilford, Sotty7, Untrod Tripod (rep. by saulres), Vi, VP Baltar, XReckonerX, xvart

uh... oh oh oh, I remember this... vaguely... just not the game.

EDIT: petsPick. My wiki page says that you and glowball had some kind of off-color conversation toward the end but I don't want to dig through the archive to see it :?
Yup. It was almost lost in the 2011 crash, but awesome Tierce managed to cache-save it. I just recently rediscovered it when I found a downloaded folder of it and re-read through it.

It's not only amazing because highly skilled players were butting heads, but all conversations and scum-hunting was done civilly. If anyone stepped over a line, an apology was quickly offered. Players were called idiots at times (as always), but it wasn't excessive and things were fine. It took place over Thanksgiving and Christmas with only one replacement and I'm sure UT didn't replace out because he wasn't having fun. I think even for 2011 it was a bit of an exception. A great playerlist makes a great game. (Also zor is an awesome mod).

And yes, saulres definitely underrated himself. He was awesome to play with.

Oh, and the glowball discussion was pretty funny. She opened up LYLO with a threat to vote because it was her *ahem* time of the month. So there was a little back-and-forth about that.

Heh. I don't seek them out, for sure.

I wouldn't say jerks per se, but on re-reading it, there was an absence of close-minded rage bullying insistence that certain lynches had to be done. I mean, there were a few f-bombs dropped to indicate frustration and anger. Nobody busted out 100% fonts to bolster their incredulity. Nobody was super personal. Nobody was obnoxious.

It certainly was a group that meshed well in their personalities. Being a player that people enjoy playing with should be a consideration in determining a G.O.A.T.. If people are still pissed off at you in the endgame, then I wouldn't consider a game a successful one (even if you are the MVP).

I don't mean it like that.

I mean, play to win and have fun. The last thing you should pay attention to is the number of posts.
