Ok, I accept that Doctors can save each other... I just wished that Doctors couldn't save people from vote-offs. It dilluted the townies' only real weapon to the point where it ended up doing more harm to them than good.
If there were multiple doctors trying to save one person (which happened on multiple occasions) in this situation, their odds of survival got much better.
Crippled townies =
(if you were a townie)

This is interesting, Pale. Lots of thought clearly went into this, and I like the wrinkle having three Mafias brought (there was even the possibility for a townie to pretend to be Mafia if he was gutsy enough... not sure what benefit it would've brought, but it would have allowed some mystery about which mafia he belonged to.... never figured out how to take advantage of that, unfortunately)
But there's one thing I don't understand... Why have Doctors protect their fellow Doctors?
Realistically, why would a doctor from a competing team want to save a member of another team? Regardless, it had an unforeseen consequence, at least for me... one of my first notes was, "Zach = Townie Doctor?" After I (and my townie bud Ceric) began wondering how 18 days kept surviving vote-offs, we came to the conclusion that they must've recruited a Doctor to their side, namely ours, and that was why both Nemy and 18 Days wouldn't die. So, I ruled Zach out from that time as being a townie (even if he had been at some point), and never tried to contact him. In essence, it kept some townies from forming up. And ironic as it is, he would be the last townie left... because he was saved by 18 days, whom he later saved... Overall it would've been better for the townies had Zach just died that day. Apparently, it formed a bond of trust between Zach and Dash, which they would later take advantage of
But yeah, I had a great time anyways. All the espionage, the deductions, the hidden motives, the sad but relieved feeling you get when you see that your co-conspirator has died and is revealed as a townie, but at least you were right in putting your trust in him. Ceric, if you hadn't turned out to be a townie, I would've felt just betrayed, lol.
Congrats, Dash. You did best at what you didn't want - living - but it brought about your ultimate desire in the end. And 18 days had me fooled right up till that first vote
I even sent her a message that very night "I think you're a townie, team up pardner blahblah" Ah, dumb mistake. 
But the stupid mistakes made it fun, too. Overall, well done, Pale.
So... when's the next game? ^_^

At least in my group of friends (none of whom actually play Pokemon, I should note), Jigglypuff is seen as the stupidest pokemon in SSBM. I mean, look at the glassy, unintelligent doll eyes, the blissfully ignorant smile which never leaves its face... We put Jigglypuff into matches just to hear him die ("Jigglllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy..."). Yes, I probably sound like a horrible person after this post, but I had to give the background when I say that...
I find it absolutely preposterous that Jigglypuff held a medical doctorate.

In fact there is a direct relationship between the length of time a Mafia game goes for and the DASHYNESS of the (remaining) participants.
Come on, we were all thinking it, right?

I don't think so, 18 Days. From what I understand, you can be protected from a hit, but you can't be protected from a vote-off. It's just bad luck for the townies.

Well, the voting COULD'VE been an effective weapon for the townies, if we'd had the luck. But 7 times out of 8 we didn't
None of us believed that it was anything more than a fluke that you kept surviving. Besides, what would that mean at the end? We eliminate the rest of the other mafias, then leave you to pick us off? It would've been delaying the inevitable. At least if we voted for you while there were other mafias around, the chances for a non-townie to do the deed would've been higher.Nope, we were already screwed.

"Goldeen Goldeen"
Hi everybody! I knew if I tried hard enough, I'd end up here! ^_^
At least I went out in a blaze of glory, stoicly pulling hoppip with me unto that great abyss, plunging headlong with that evil one, thinking, even though I die, others may live, and OH WAIT NEVER MIND.
I think I had most things figured out by the end, but it doesn't do much good when the townies can't rely on the only weapon at their disposal (voting) to get rid of the bad'uns, and in fact their only weapon actually hurts THEM more than anyone else.
EDIT: I do dig the mangled avatar, though
And I agree, Ceric - nice one. Looking forward to seeing my noble fall immortalized in lead and paper, er red green and blue pixels.

I'll put it this way:
I don't expect to win anymore. I just want Dash out of this for having been the prime reason townies won't win.
If Dash doesn't win, I'll be happy, even if I'm in the "Poke-afterlife."

Change of plan.
VOTE 18 DAYS
The only way anyone but Dash is going to win is if Townies and Mafia unite to continually vote them off. I'm betting that these Dash non-deaths are fluke more than anything. And besides, our numbers are getting so low that the chance that a townie will be chosen to carry out the deed is now very low. 18 Days should've been gone a long time ago. Time to end her unlikely run.

Oh, man, guys, I'm beginning to think YOU'RE BOTH IN CAHOOTS (that looks weird being typed out), and this is some elaborate ploy to look like you're against each other. I mean, there's been a post-drought all day long, and I don't even want to try to decipher what this quote battle's all about. You're both suspicious as far as I'm concerned.

That makes me wonder. We all know that there are Mafia Recruiters...
If Recruiters work the way I assume they do, then our doctor may have... need I continue?
EDIT: Then again... does that mean TOWNIES have a recruiter too?
