Obviously scum...

[SNFaulkner]

I guess everyone is crazy busy scums at work...

[Magicalundies]

Oh east coast time, just as well, its all the same to me. Anyone eat any good cheese lately?

[SNFaulkner]

Does cheddar count as "good"?

[SNFaulkner]

The wifey's mom brought me some sort of weird rare cheese that I don't know the name of. Begins with a W I think. Anyway, it's in my fridge. You may have seen it or heard her talk about it.

[TexCat]

Crazy busy at work during December?? I thought everyone was on vacation, taking the time they can't carry over to next year.

Is there bad cheese?

GO GO GOOGLES

4. Winnimere // $30 to $45 per pound
This ooey gooey wonder won Best of Show at the 2013 American Cheese Society conference. When it comes to expensive cheese, this one is actually relatively affordable. One spruce-wrapped wheel costs about $45 and includes the wintry seasonal flavors of berries, smoked meat, and forest.

12. Wyke Farms Cheddar // $200 per pound
Cheddar is a classic, a staple of any pantry. It makes sandwiches taste better, pairs perfectly with most beers and wines, and is the perfect snack. Wyke Farms turned one of the most traditional cheeses into something extraordinary by infusing it with gold leaf and white truffle.

13. White Stilton Gold // $450 per pound
This is as opulent as it gets. The folks at Long Clawson Dairy first made this cheese for the Christmas season, and it's now a favorite among celebs. It’s made with real gold flakes and gold liqueur.

I have a useless body that cant breakdown lactose, so fresh cheese tends to be a bad (sour cream will end me) aged cheese has much less lactose though, and what i "try" to eat.

One of those is cheddar, so not that one. And no gold flakes, so not that one either. But I don't think it is the first one either because it is less ooey gooey and more cumbley. Also, I think it has cranberries in it? W-somethingsomething-Dale?

[Magicalundies]

"gold liqueur. "

UGH

UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH

Is that like Goldschlager? Which is just cinnamon flavoured with gold flakes.

[Magicalundies]

Wensleydale is an historic fresh, mild cheese made in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire since 1150 by Cistercian monks. These monks continued to make the cheese until the dissolution of their monasteries in 1540. Traditionally, sheep's milk was used, but over the time cow's milk was also used. The art of making the cheese was passed by the monks to the farmer's wives who produced a blue variety of Wensleydale at their farmhouses. Today, Wensleydale is produced mainly from pasteurised cow's milk with sheep's milk added to enhance the flavour. Wensleydale Creamery in the town of Hawes is seeking to protect the name Yorkshire Wensleydale Cheese under PDO designation. But there are other producers of Wenslydale cheese in parts of the UK, mainly in Shropshire and Cheshire.

Wensleydale with Cranberries is a hand-made Yorkshire cheese that is sold fresh & young at only three weeks old. The cheese has a sweet flavour of the fruity succulence of juicy cranberries with honeyed undertones.

Sounds interesting, i dont know how i feel about things in cheese other than cheese, i guess its cutting out a step somewhere.

[Magicalundies]

I so forgot about Goldschlager, now i feel gross.

YES! That's the one. There's a wedge in my fridge. Feel free to have some next time you come over.

Goldschlager is good...as far a cinnamon liqueurs go. Much better than cinnamon schnapps, aftershock, hot damn, fire water, and *gags* fireball.

[Magicalundies]

wait, you mean ive been drinking swill that is fireball when ive could have been fancy with Goldschlager?

[LightFoot]

Nights and weekends I will have time to play- not much to play with at this point, however.

there should have been some activity last Night w- curious to see what unfolds

It does depend on your budget- however they all make a great marinade on beef ribs

Goldshlager is more $$$.

Also Fireball is technically cinnamon flavoured whisky.

OOO! at last! A use for fireball that won't end in misery!

gold flake ribs, we are indeed living in the future.

[SNFaulkner]

Gold flake ribs, gold flake cheese...I feel like I need a top hat and monocle.

[Magicalundies]

that tum yum soup i had for dinner is all of a sudden not good enough.

[SNFaulkner]

I ate for lunch today that tri-tip you guys smokered yesterday. I wept a little when I was down to only a few bites. Suddenly nothing is good enough.

[SNFaulkner]

Alright then, my time is up here at work. Off to the pitcherteria.

[Magicalundies]

ya, it was better than the tri-tip we actually had in Santa Maria last weekend.

Don[t muc them up with sauce ( unless you just use it as a dip - that you won't need) a good sear and Yum!

[Colby11]

All this talk about cheese..... You better have a Gouda answer for this.

[SNFaulkner]

Cheese puns are super scummy. In-game and out.

[SNFaulkner]

Sidenote, I'm actually quite impressed we went this long from the time cheese was first mentioned to the first pun.

[Santa is Sad]

Greetings.



For a somewhat detailed discussion of the switches on Night 0 before agreeing "100%" with HookerChemical that the switches are not important to Town players.

How do you feel about bear's 1 post?

Got my PM. Ready to kill. But even more ready to kill the 3PK! Fuck that dude, whoever you are.

[SNFaulkner]

I kinda got a "fuck that dude, whoever you are. But it's not me. No way is it me. Why are you looking at me?" Vibe from it.

Having lost this game twice to the SK, I am empathetic of that position.

What did you think SNF? Too over-the-top?

[Santa is Sad]

I see you already replied. Wouldn't it be kind of ballsy for the SK to make that post? After all, it drew your attention.

[SNFaulkner]

A bit, yeah.

Normally, I'd say we vote for whomever seems non town. But should we change that approach this game given the jerk has won 2 out of 3 times and focus on him?

Have you known bear to NOT be ballsy?

True enough.

The last two SK's Dante and Death of Endless played pretty much low-key games. They avoided Town attention and scrutiny and let the noise-makers go after each other. We'll have to see if that template plays out here.

Fair enough for this early in the game.

[SNFaulkner]

It's only 1 post in n0 thread, so I'm not too hung up on it...yet.

My "Improved Butterzone" theory last game was that the most Scum will not to be found among the Scummiest-seeming players on Day 1 nor among the Towniest seeming players. They'll be most highly concentrated among the in-betweeners.

[SNFaulkner]

I think David Koechner is sitting next to me at the bar.

Like 90% probably him.

And to undies, he's apparently old friends with DMac.

One of these I'll stop being lazy and run some numbers to confirm or deny the truthiness of butterzone/improved butterzone.

Oops. I meant to quote myself, not edit. Oh well. What's done is done.

This is very close to where I live, the hubby loves his Wensleydale. I like cheese with apricots in.

It is certainly seems intuitively true. Getting attention in Mafia usually gets you killed by somebody. And while no one wants to die, Scum and third parties can least afford it. Not getting killed is a higher priority for the heels, less so for Town.
