This is a my version of the traditional Group Hugs EDH deck that has served me well. A deck like this is a control freak's best friend, and is frequently passed around to people that want a chance to control the game. The intention of a Group Hugs deck is not to win, it is to help other players to do some crazy things, and try to balance out deck interactions. After playing this deck I discoverd that it is actually capable of winning a few ways, and in a large multiplayer game it can be possible to sneak in a win when the last player is already down. The problem with that is that next time you try to be a benevolent hugger you may run in to suspiscion making people target you more.
