PM MY ASS.

I'm definitely in, but not right at this moment since I'm home. I'll read up on the game x100 tomorrow while I'm at work and not in a position to be coding the gallery like I am right now.

Gio, didn't we talk about self-image in Key West?  Your ass is totally not fat enough to need its own IRG account.

Anyway, posting here instead of PM'ing me is okay too   So far we've got Gio and Arki.  Five to go!

*disappointed*

I'm in.

The game, silly! I'm in THE GAME!

Great!  That's five already!  I'm going to cap the population at nine, because with more than that you really need extra roles to keep things interesting, and I don't want y'all to know whether there's a doctor, cop, etc.  So if you want to get in, get in now!

EDIT: Archambeau is in, too -- six so far!

I'm reading the site now. But, question - where exactly is the game played? Maybe I should keep reading before I open my virtual mouth.

::brings her grumbling here::

Depending on how it's played it's usually done mostly in PM, and the results are posted in the threads (a la  Exquisite Corpse), but there are other versions where people decide on who's what in the forum.

Part of the fun is the secrecy, though.

Haha, that's true. I'm interested in seeing how it goes on here. I've never played a proper forum game. The way we did it was through a bot you could send various commands to to investigate, kill people off, etc.

OH!!! ME TOO!!! MOMMY SAID YOU GUYS HAD TO PLAY WITH ME NOW SO I WANNA PLAY MAFIA OMG GUISE LET ME JOIN PLEEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE RULES (cribbed a little from mafiascum.net)

0. Regardless of your win condition, the object of the game is to have fun.  Do not flame.  Be nice.  Remember that lying and treachery are part of the game; if you are feeling morally outraged at someone’s lies or accusations, take a step back or ask me to replace you.  Do not post in anger.

1. Rule One of Mafia: Don’t talk about Mafia.  Do not discuss this game by any means outside this thread unless your role specifically allows you to do so.  (The only people in this game that are allowed to talk outside the thread are the Mafia themselves; they’re allowed to talk at night to strategize and decide who to kill, but not during the day.)

2. Use bold text to place your vote: vote satyreyes.  To make my life easier, if you’ve already voted and want to change your vote, please unvote before you cast your new vote: unvote satyreyes, vote ikuni. You can also unvote without casting a new vote.

3. When a player has a majority of votes, that player will be executed (or “lynched”).  From the moment the deciding vote is cast, that player’s fate is sealed, even if I’m not around at that moment; in other words, unvoting will not save him.  Vote wisely.

4. Night begins when I post the death scene.  No one can post to the thread during the night.  Night ends when I receive all players’ night choices via PM (the Mafia decides who to kill; cops, if any, decide who to investigate; doctors, if any, decide who to protect) and post the results.  I reserve the right to end the night early if someone is taking too long to PM me with their decision.

5. Dead men tell no tales.  Once you’re dead, you can’t post to the thread until the game is over.  That said, if you want to make one farewell post that doesn’t contain any game-related content (along the lines of “thanks for the game”), I’ll allow it.

6. Do not delete or edit your posts!  No, not even for spelling errors.  If you need to correct or add something, make a new post.

7. Do not quote my PMs to you!  It turns out that there’s a really game-breaking strategy where townies can figure out whether someone’s a townie by testing them to see if they know the specifics of the PM I sent them (e.g. “What’s the fourth word in your role description?”)  Don’t do it.  You can state your name and your role; that’s all.

8. QUESTIONS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME.  Ask in-game or by PM, whichever is appropriate.


The Players (in alphabetical order):

1.    Archambeau - Kaoru Miki, Townie.  Lynched on Day 3.
2.    Arki - Tenjou Utena, Townie.  Survived!
3.    Cerise - Kiryuu Touga, Cop.  Killed on Night 4.
4.    dollface - Chida Mamiya, Mafia.  Lynched on Day 4.

Game Over.  Town Wins!

Have fun!

Quel epic.

This is going to be amazing to the extreme.

TO

THE

EXTREME

BABY!

Day One will begin around 8:30 PM EDT tonight.  If you have any pregame questions, now is the time to ask!

Don't worry; from what I've seen, Day One of Mafia games can easily last several days of realtime.  Missing the first several hours probably won't affect anything.  Probably.
