I feel that it is enough for a seperate voting thread. Really, guys. It will be difficult as fuck to keep up with all of the votes if they're in this thread this time.

Also, when is Zona's space monkey mafia?

How many players is this game supposed to have?

Shooting for around 40, I'd say. Closing signups in 3.5 hours.

That makes a good point. I like the voting in the thread idea since it is able to generate more discussion on the spot, but 40 people is quite a bit. I guess it may be moved to a separate thread. Thoughts? Qatol, Ace, Incog, etc.?

It's completely up to you, man. They won't be the ones having to count the votes page by page and keep updating the votecount multiple times a day. Do what is easier on you as the mod, which makes it easier on the players.

That's my advice.

I am here to play again!
I think I've established a reputation as being wonderfully useless in mafia games by now O.O

For all those who joined since last night, I've got you signed up, and I think you're all new players to (TL at least) mafia, so welcome to the game!.

Wow, 33 people. I'll leave sign-ups open until Saturday, Apr 17 2:00am GMT (GMT+00:00) (testing the new time/date thing, so it's equivalent to Friday, April 16th at 10:00 p.m. EDT) tonight for any last people who haven't gotten access yet to come and post. After that, I'll be sending out roles sometime tomorrow, and the game will start on Sunday, Apr 18 2:00am GMT (GMT+00:00).

For those of you that don't live in EDT, can you tell me if the time/date shows up in your local time? I want to make perfectly sure so nobody gets confused by the date/time.

Edit: Also, be sure to glance here after signups are done, since then balancing will be done and mafia numbers will be posted.

I'm really looking forward to this. I've played mafia before but only in person, never on a forum, and never with quite so many roles. I've been checking out the Mafia XX thread just to get an idea of how it all plays out. Should be fun!

Quick question about the roleblocker. Does role blocking mean that the person targeted loses their ability for the night? Also, can you elaborate on which roles are or are not allowed to PM.

I'd move it to another thread. It's just too big and unweildly otherwise.

I'd also recommend looking at this thread so you can get a feel for basic strategy.

Roleblocking does mean that the targeted player loses their ability for the night. So it doesn't do anything for greens, but it disables blue/assassin abilities.
I believe that the only roles who will be allowed to PM are the mafia, and then only to each other. I find it highly unlikely that any other role will have that ability.
