I'd say about the same. How about the theme? Anyone think there's some significance to the bolded Sopranos reference?

[Destiny]

Yes I'm still an evil robot sent here to try to annoy Mafia players worldwide by posting post counts and being inactive.

[Destiny]

Unfortunate double post but when I said post counts I meant vote counts. Even robots make mistakes.

[moon_lit_tears]

Big enough game, and Outlaw mean enough...could be a cult.

[Destiny]

It's really good to see that there's some actual discussion going on. I am usually busy working at the weekends so would like to participate as much as I can during the week.

[Eternal Phoenix]

My account is so little used I can't even see profile pictures. Or signatures, if you have those. Anyway, I'm here. Let's have some fun.

[Destiny]

I apologise. My memory is going in my old age from all of the things that I've seen. Where is my apprentice Now?

[Eternal Phoenix]

I will take your word for it. Keanu the gangsta kitten. I don't remember us doing much in the way of cults back in my Gamewinners days. We did have a fondness for a third one person faction, though.
