Mafia coordinator sign up thread (includes list of upcoming games)

[Drew-Sta]

I really want to mod another game but don't think people will appreciate updates coming only in the morning / evening.

 

[Misanthrope]

Numbers the way they are, could be we're heading into a real lull

 

[Drew-Sta]

Possibly. I thought more people, with the return to the NRL, would join the FFB fun and get involved.

Clearly I am an optimist...

The big issue is we've really failed to win over many new guys beyond the likes of Pharaoh, SeeJay, and Hogg who I recruited from off site.

Anybody who is an FFB regular either plays, has played, or isn't really of the intellectual level required to play. Then there's guys like Twizzle and GKD who are labouring under the illusion they're too cool for it.

I'd spam for new players, but... well, it could garner bad results.

To be honest, fresh blood is fresh blood. At worst, we get some duds who disappear on us. Couldn't be much worse than our current dwindling crop of active players.

As it stands, several people who have signed up for both this mafia and my last have basically been inactive upon signing up. Pugzley in the last one, and a few I can't yet name in the current one.

 

[Drew-Sta]

Ok, I might send out a few feeler and see where we get to when the next sign up hits.

 

[Drew-Sta]

Ok, I have a 15 player mafia game I want to run. The structure will be:

6-7:30am - Night update to complete.
12-1pm - Day updated if needed.
7-10:30pm - Night updated if needed.

It will be a continuation of Drew's Story, and there will be traditional aspects to the game with a twist. The idea is to generate discussion that will keep the game flowing while I am unavailable.

I will run this post June 19th, 6:30pm. Roles will go out then.

Is this ok?

I am also keen to try and get some other people involved, so will be posting the game thread sign up to other parts of the forum.

 

[Drew-Sta]

Thoughts?

 

[RHCP]

I'm all for trying new things.

Don't mind twists in mafia games either.

 

[Drew-Sta]

I think this will be good. A few different things, everyone will have something to do too.

 

[Misanthrope]

Sounds good to me, Drew!

 

[Apey]

I just don't have the time to play any more unfortunately. Still would like to do Seinfeld Mafia and Meme Mafia one day.

 

[Drew-Sta]

Meme mafia would be fun.

 

[SeeJay]

Im assuming we will run dutchys game after the current one, then drews?

 

[Misanthrope]

@SeeJay: I've talked to Chad about mafia. What do you think about bringing him in?

Pacific Time Zone is a drag. Most of the action hours for you guys is when I'm waking up and getting in the shower/driving to work/trying to get my work sorted in the morning. Not that I'm complaining mind you, this is fun, but some of the hard deadlines were hard to meet in the LoTR game.

 

[Dutchy]

We don't all rush it like Micky does.

 

[mickyj]

I actually had no deadlines for actions last game.

You think chad would like it and be active? No harm in bringing him in to try.
