You really can't be that...well I can't say it because it will get deleted. Are you really unfamiliar with the phrase, or the meaning in this case? He means that he is the one in charge of keeping track of these people's actions during the game. Hey, we outlawed slavery in the 1860s in this country, so I don't understand your silliness at all.
