Suffering from ads?

The situation this time was a one-off, and Trokair was too late. There is no anti-noob sentiment, as long as you are willing to play the games properly it's all fine.

Please consider joining gladiator and nuclear war, especially the latter since we will finish soon. Everyone that wants to, within reason, can play.

Put an end to popups!

If we figured out a workable scoring system, a mafia "premier league" would be a logical extension.

As it stands now, I prefer the first come, first served system.

How did you get to Geneva so fast? Or have you got a DL there too?

Let me play the next game too!
I'm good at playing the games, but rubbish at actually getting onto the sing-up sheets in time because the games invariably end in the evening GMT or at the weekend. I realise that it's a pain your all having to wait over the weekend for the next round, but I've got a feeling that the thread won't slip down the forum in that time.

I like the idea of having two games of 16-20 players... there's enough players for this I guess... And the games wont take too long... being among the first people to get killed in a 30+ players game can be very annoying...

If you'll actually read the thread you'll see it is so. You'll also see me defend Trokair, since Duke originally gave suspicion as the reason for swapping Jonny for Trokair. Trokair ws last in nonetheless.

If there's a timing problem concerning the duration of both games, then we could allow people who are already "dead" to cross over.

Well... if the 24 hour vote/kill time is kept (Maybe have the same GM for both games... or at least from the same timezone), and both games has the same number of players, it should be much of a problem

True, but I never claimed that your post originally said what I changed it to in my quote.

But! But! Damn! I'll have to rewrite about five lines of Chapter Three now.






[edit] A query. Why does Chaunk have Columbo as an avatar, when, in the current game of Mafia, he's playing Charlie Chan, and Spaced Cowboy is playing Columbo? Is he just an admirer of Peter Falk's work? [/edit]

Looks like Trokair is doing a fine job in keeping interest. I mean he even used "docpile" correctly, even if it is not a standard word.

For the Mafia Premier version I think in addition to the change that the mafia can choose his killing style suitable for each victim, perhaps he could also be required to provide names for a couple people that has alibi and false alibi.

It can still deviate by a week or so depending on if and how quickly the Mafia is caught.
I think allowing "dead" players to cross over would still be the easiest way of keeping two independent games while still shuffling the player pool somewhat.

I find it very suspicious that a settler would actually read some of the threads before commenting on them.

Why are you wasting your time at 'poly? You should be out alongside Supercitizen, fighting the good fight!
