General

PJ has been a member of Mafia Scum since November 28, 2005.

(23-24-0-5-1) (Wins-Losses-Ties-Abandoned, Uncounted). Currently alive in 2 games, 3 are in progress. I'm modding and co-modding too many games for my own good.

My counterpart is Glork. I am also Co-Founder of those who use the Too Townie fallacy along with Ibaesha. Right paw of Zindaras; there are also ludicrous rumours that I am the right paw of Felinus Maximus. Enjoys slugging CrashTextDummie, huggling AmeliaSlay, and biting various people, such as al_kohaulec.

Based on the past half year of playing, however, I am considering changing my name to "He Who is Doomed to Lose", unless that handle is already taken.

Currently playing under the character Keln Whist in the Amstaad role-playing game.

Tidbits about PJ on MafiaScum

• My favorite role is undecided between Townie and Mason: I enjoy being uninformed, but I also like the intricacies of night-talking with Masons as well as planning strategies with others for during the day. Edit: I think I prefer Mason.
• My least favorite role is Mafia. I always feel like there's a large burden on me not to screw everything up (which seems to inevitably happen anyways). In fact, if I draw Mafia, I would rather not know who my partners are! Edit: Actually, I do prefer knowing who my partners are.
• I have never been lynched while I have been pro-town. Don't you dare break that record!
• Recruiting roles have a strange attraction to me in games, and fittingly enough, these recruitment attempts have always failed. They have all tried to recruit me on N2. Here are the four games which were completed, and contained recruiting roles:
  • A.) Scumchat Mini Mafia: Cult failed to recruit me N2, because I was not town (but a Serial Killer)
  • B.) Mormon Town Mini I: Mafia failed to recruit me N2, because I was not a Townie (but a Mason)
  • C.) Wheel of Time, Large: Seanchan Mafia failed to recruit me N2, because I was not a female channeler (but Rand Al'Thor)
  • D.) Robotics Mini Mafia: The Cult failed to recruit me on N2 because I was not one of the predetermined "parts of the machine" which could be converted.
• Jelly's three biggest hates in Mafia:
  • 1.) Cults
  • 2.) Deadlines
  • 3.) Lurkers / Non-participants
    • Note: Cultists lurking at deadline would be super-hate...
• Jelly's Top 5 Least Favorite "Don't Lynch Me!" Arguments:
  • 1.) "Help me lynch X, and I will convert you to the cult so we will win."
  • 2.) "Give me just one more day!"
  • 3.) "Trust me."
  • 4.) "But I'm always scummy."
  • 5.) "You're better than this."

Information about PJ

Bustin' spam makes him feel good!

• I am 22 years old, and an alumni from WSU '08: I majored in Philosophy Pre-Law. I will be attending the Mississippi College School of Law for (at least) the next year, with plans to live with Thesp and kristocker!
• I am easily addicted to games. In the past, I have been hopelessly addicted to Scrabble, Chess, Crosswords, and Logic Puzzles, all of which I still find myself reverting back to every so often. I have even submitted some crosswords to Will Shortz for publishing (turned down), and a few Logic Puzzles to Dell for publishing (also turned down), but I will probably do so again when I find spare time.
