Skruffs is a mafia player. He joined in July of 2005, but didn't actually sign up for a game until July of 2006. He's pretty out there.
Here are some games he has been in
- On Tuesday, Sep 12, 2006 at 10:03 pm, I made my first appearance in a mafia game. I replaced into Newbie 256 - Alien Invader Mafia, being run by mathcam, as scum with Thok. I made an initial post, and then voted for Chess83, who had put up a valiant fight... and died. The game was over one hour and twenty five minutes, thanks to Thok and townie thedocsalive after I replaced into it.
Scum win! It was a pretty exciting experience. And an interesting foray in the world of Scum and Townies.
- Newbie 276 - Actor Mafia I was a townie. I was NKed after successfully hammering Sprontalic scum. Chess83 - who I had just lynched off in my replacement game - won as scum in this game after a TIGHT show down between Ether, Save the Dragons, and Chess83. Even though Save the Dragons went so far as to write a song to help persuade her, Ether wound up voting him. I think the one aspect of this game I learned from the most was the fight between the witty, logical, and beautiful Ether, and scum sprontalic about the differences in play styles. I also got my first hint of bait-trappers - which if you look through my other games, you will notice I do not react well to.
- Newbie 293 - Immune System Mafia This was my first complete game as scum. I was paired up with the beautiful SpectrumVoid. Day one I helped coerce a mislynch on Twito, for almost the sole reason of bait-trapping. He had claimed that he was not going to read his PM, and then, when we called him out on that as scummy, said that he was just saying it as a ruse to draw out scum. Lynch! That night, me and the intelligent, sparkling, fearsome VoidyBuns decided to kill Zindaras. This is important, because it started a trend... you'll see. Day three, after tentatively testing the waters and giving lots of time to claim, me and SV started a campaign to lynch Y.C, the most scummiest of hte three remaining townies. I claimed cop and got him mislynched for a scum win. This could have been avoided if Mr. Finch, the REAL cop, had counter claimed. I believe Hemisphere Dancer cost the fatal misvote that ended the game. Oh well, it was just a newbie. :)
- Two Headed Mafia I replaced in at a 6 player near-end game scenario, paired up with Zindaras. This was a horrible game for me, because I replaced into it just before killing Zindaras off in the aforementioned newbie game. After he realized it, I felt like relations were kind of.. strained. The showdown had occurred into a situation with 1 or 2 possible cultists, a vig or sk, and a mafia member. I got me and Zindaras mislynched by advocating attempting to go after a killer instead of after cult-recruits that may or may not have existed. Even though it ended the game for us, I was *right* about the no cultist theory. This was my first ever lynching!!! After we died, the vig killed a townie and the mafia killed hte vig. A tight three player endgame was won by Cogito Ergo Sum/OverTheUnder & Lowell/sprontalic. PetroleumJelly should be commended for swallowing his pride and claiming cultist while actually a mafia member. :)
- [Post Restriction 3] This may have been my FAVORITE GAME to replace into. I replaced in at the middle of day five. My first post restriction - Very Verbose Townie - meant I had to post at least 400 words in each of my first three posts of every day. We lynched scum day after day and STILL had a very close endgame. This was also the first game I survived to the end in as town. I was quite exhilirated at the win. :D
- Normal 53 I replaced into this game during the night phase as a combat medic, and the game was abandoned before the next day started.
- Mini 405 - Loveboat Mafia I signed up to play in this game being run by Sailor Jerry. I was the cop that didn't save the day. I hammered Massive - the doctor - day one. My strategy of the game was to act semi scummy in order to keep the scum from killing me, while also not getting lynched by hte town. Because I had just gotten Y.C mislynched in Newbie 293 - Immune System Mafia, I decided to inspect him the first night. He was also a double voter in the lynch, both the third voter on, and the -1 voter, which I considered suspicious. He was not guilty, however. The next day the conversation faltered - I left a single clue that I had inspected Y.C earlier in the day. The cult recruiter had died the night before through suicide, and over time I realized in scum chat - which was not part of this game and so couldn't count - that the cult recruiter considered fircoal to be his favorite scummer. To me, that was a clue, btu not enough to go on. However when lyingbrian appeared out of nowhere and started attacking me for probing at fircoal a bit, i counter attacked, and he was lynched. Another townie. That night I investigated ac1983fan, who was acting the least helpful to town during the day. HE was also town. THe next day I claimed, and posted my first pro-town compelling case. I thought we had it in the bag - however - a cleared townie put a vote on the only uncleared townie left. Scum quickly wagoned, and with a speedlynch, the game was over. Even though I did not win this game, I enjoyed playing it, and I think my strategy was semi-intelligent.
- Open 11 I replaced ShadowLurker in this game being run by bird1111 on day one. After mislynching fircoal, of the fircoal and twito gang, town woke up to find no bodies. After a bit of speculation, we began to claim roles. Patrick and ripley were suspicious of me, and I was very suspicious of them. This was my first game playing with patrick where we were both still alive, it was very intricate. Twito and Ripley both wound up claiming doctor,a nd after a while, [[nightfall] (the uncounterclaimed cop) revealed he had investigated Ripley and had not been blocked. We lynched Twito/the fonz, for a town win. Woo!
- Marathon 11 (Speed) I was coerced itno playign this game by it's runner, Zindaras. I think to spite me, and hoping I would die, he made me a completely vanilla townie. Boy did I show him! I outlasted a vig, a reviver, a roleblocker, potentially unkillable Mafia, and helped split apart a mason group which had a mafia buddy in it that was dominating the game. It was one hell of an experience, and it rebolstered my faith in myself. Awww! :D
- Mini Mafia 415 This game, run by Jules, has no significant flavor. In a way, the lack of flavor.. gives it flavor! I replaced ixnayonthehombre. It was modkilled by MeMe after Jules disappeared after hte server upgrade.
- Meadow of Sorrow I replaced into this game being run by al_kohaulec Day Three. I helped cause the death of Zindaras, the third time this has happened. I had my vote stolen by Thesp day three. Night four, I was given a Totem of the Night by Dahen, which protected me from nightkills. One of the most stressful aspects of this game was the role and alignment altering abilities of the scum. Namely.. Spectrumvoid, Blackberry, and Zindaras. (hee hee hee) Evil Zindaras. I felt SO BAD for getting him lynched at deadline, and it turns out he was scum after all. Blackberry showed up as a mason on being lynched, too, which was disheartening. I thought it was game over. Town never really understood what was going on with the scum until Dahen showed up as an Alignment Changer. That didn't make any sense, because I believed his claim about being an Indian Giver. When SV voted herself, though, the game was over. I was a vanilla townie. An awesome game that I enjoyed replacing into.
- Mafia 59 - Hell On Earth I replaced into this game (run by Kelly Chen) in a LYLO situation of sorts day five. IWas Borg Scum with theopor_COD. We got an alien lynched day 6 and endgamed everyone else. Including Spectrumvoid (who was also scum).
These games are Still Ongoing
- Open 2 I replaced Rosso Carne on day three. I hammered MNOWAX, who was scum, and was nightkilled night three. What an honor! ^.^ I was a vanilla townie It is now day 6.
- Exile Mafia I signed up for this fascinating game by GreenLiquid, which I am excited to be played in. The lynching mechanics are unusual. I was lynched day one, out of me, RagingRabbit, JDodge, and Cheesefan, I was lynched. I enjoyed my part in this intriguing, complex game. I was a vanilla townie, It is now day two.
- Mini 404 - Diablo Mafia I replaced into this game run by Zindaras on day one. I hammered TheJiveMachine, who was scum, day one. I hammered myself day three. I was a vanilla townie. This was an awesome game, for me. I very much enjoyed my day three lynch. It is now night four.
- Open 14 I replaced into this game being hosted by TheCentralScrutinizer on day one. It is day two. I was lynched Day one. I was a vanilla townie.
- Animaniacs! Mafia This is a game being run by petroleumjelly. I replaced mole on day two, just so I could be in another game with the wonderfully intelligent, and charming too, Ether. After a successful lynch on day two, I was nightkilled. (I was not part of the succesful lynch). I was a vanilla townie.
- Kingmaker I waited MONTHS to replace into this game, and was nightkilled the first night. I must have been too obvious, as I was the kingmaker. It sucks because I was going to replace [[Shanba], who I think deserved to win.
I am still alive in the below games
- PS2SUX Mafia I replaced into this game (currently) being run by petroleumjelly on Day Three and helped lynch Romanus, who was part of the Microsoft scum group. It is now Day 4.
- Mini 414-Anime Mafia I signed up to play in this game being run by IH. It is still day one, and I am still alive.
- Mafia 61 I replaced IH in this game being run by AndrewS, day one. I helped get a successful lynch on Scum Lalmstreak day one, and survived to day two.
- Calvin & Hobbes Mafia This is an interesting themed Mini Normal being run by Mr. Stoofer. While we play, we apparently also get to make rules. It is still day one, and I am still alive.

Off Site Games
These games are all on Other websites which host Mafia Games. Check them out, they are fun!
- Roman Mafia This was my first game on WiFom, and was run by Strelz. It was my first time in any forum mafia game being scum! I was in the Barbarian Mafia with Cyan and DivineChaos. It was a very convulted game - we tried to kill the opposing mafia's godfather night one, which failed. Lots of power roles and role blocks wound up getting Cyan lynched and DivineChaos night-killed by day three. I tried my best to get the roman mafia lynched, but Primate, unfortuantely, saw through my plans. :( I got lynched. Really sad, I hadn't been lynched as scum before (obviously). Town did wind up winning that game.
- Mini-Stapler Mafia This game run by CPE started a streak of very bad day one endings for me. I was an Insane Day Cop/Vig (50% chance of either). I investigated Cubus day one, got a guilty, claimed, got him mislynched, and died that night. It's horrifying just to remember. Town did win, though. Yay.
- Unluckyville This is a game run by Primate. I'm still alive in it, and on day three used an ability that skipped an entire night phase and went straight on to the next day. Two scum were successfully lynched without a night phase in between. It is currently on Day Six, and I am still alive.
- Heroes Mafia This game, being run by Sentinel99, is in Day Two. I am still alive.
- Forum Lyncher This is an experimental game being run by Colin. A seven player Lyncher game with 4 townies, a lyncher, a jester, and a mafia. It is in day two.
- Faction Mafia This game, run by Strelz, had a very unique setup. Three 3-party factions and 3 'miscellaneous' roles vie for control of a small town. I replaced IH in this game on Night Four. I won as the sole surviving mafia, too, after killing Primate fanatic, getting the other fanatic lynched, and then nightkilling the remaining townie. I like replacing in near end game as scum.
- Blinding Light and Darkness Mafia You should definitely click this link! Thestatusquo is taking signups for this game - It's worth signing up for! I promise!
- Mafia : A Universe in Peril Speaking of games run by TheStatusQuo, this is an awesome game he is running. Stormtroopers are good, Padme is evil, and Savethedragons gets killed twice! Doesn't get better than that. I was lynched, Day 6, as a Vanilla Townie. Le sigh. You can not win them al. One of my favorite games, regardless. Thanks Shea!. :)
Modding
- My mini normal, which is titled "Early Morning Mafia", is currently on night two. After the one-shot vig was lynched day one, town woke up to find two vanilla townies dead. Sadness abounds. A surprise lynch turned unproductive day two! Now th scum lurk in the dark, planning their next moves...Feel free to PM me if you wish to replace in! Yay!
These are all games I plan to run at some point.
- Double Newbie Mafia - Hee Hee Hee.
- Forum Mafia Mafia - Possibly Co-Hosting with IH, if that chance comes around.
- Ghost Mafia - Dead players are not prevented from talking about the game.
- Good Cult, Bad Cult - Light vs Darkness mafia game. White, dark, plenty of grey. Ready to go!
- Office Hours Mafia - A possible Sequel to the mini I am running now.
- Page by Page Mafia - Speculative game similar to a Marathon game.
- Paint Easel Mafia - Speculative themed game.
- The Thing Mafia - One bad guy, but who? A Designer Style mafia with one 'bad guy'.
And others..

Skruffs and Other Scummers
A few people stand out to Skruffs in terms of how they play and who they are. Zindaras is an awesome guy who has the unfotunate knack of being in front of the Skruffs train in any game we are both in together. I've nightkilled him as town when I was scum, gotten us both lynched as town in Double Headed Mafia, and gotten him barely lynched at deadling as scum (sneaky Zindaras!) in Meadows of Sorrow. I made him King in Kingmaker 2 the night I was killed. I replaced into Famous Cats Mafia with his clone after Zindaras One was knocked off. And I bug him daily on AIM. Yay!
Spectrumvoid is perhaps the scummiest female I've ever met. She was my first scumbuddy in a newbie game, turned out tob e scum WITH Zindaras in MEadows of Sorrow, and was scum in Hell on Earth, too. Shame on you, SV. Shame! Endgaming SV in Hell on Earth was a very happy thing for me to be able to do. Secondarily, I believe that she has a secret 'thing' for being endgamed.
Ether is the LEAST scummy female I've ever met. She's always town. :)
Now_a_ranger is perhaps my favorite 'newb' on the site. He's a very fun and enthusiastic player, if you cna keep his attention long enough to keep him in the game.
Primate and Patrick are excellent foreigners who I turn to a good deal for questions about modding and possible setups in games I am in.
Thestatusquo is.. sexy. I think?
Glork is undefinable. But he likes meatloaf.. so he's good.
