Oatsmaster is going to have some time constraints and I already do so I'm looking for anybody interested in taking a light role in helping to host "The Game". In addition to cohosting duties (which will be rule moderation, action resolution, vote counting) you will also be asked to take part in an observation podcast series!

This special podcast series will be designed to help people analyze the postgame and dig deeper into often unanalyzed subjects like night kill selection, blue actions and mafia planning. If you don't want to cohost but have time to take part in this, you will be given special observer access to read the regular observer quicktopic, the scum quicktopic as well as the thread. You will also be given a full list of night/day actions each cycle. At the end of each cycle (or at the end of each day/night combined) we will record a discussion critiquing the play of the town and the mafia as it happens. I think 3 maybe 4 people is enough. Marvellosity is on board for now.

I'd be interested in doing that observing thing generally, but I'm
1) lazy
2) bad
3) in possession of a german accent.

Due to 1), I'll probably stop reading the thread at around d2 gg.

€: what I'm saying is I'd be willing to try, but I cant promise to pull through.

Since Red Team's Prize looks like it's invite-only, can I put up the OP for [N][M] Noir Mini Mafia?

There are currently no open games for signup I believe.

I will open up the game in around 2-3 days, because I don't believe everyone I invited is going to participate.
EDIT:
I have nothing against two minis being up for signups though! Ask Foolishness!

Well, Red is a themed mini, right? So a normal mini should be possible?

Marv as FiveTouch in LIX is the most standout town game in recent memory.

Honestly I think a large post from Ace or Myself as well as one of the newer players about how to play the mafia end of the game would be a interesting set of guides.

Well the town guide I want to write is sort of a guide about how to properly form a case and how to push your reads effectively so people will vote with you.

If you want to focus on an important aspect of scumplay we could put them both in the same post. Pushing mislynches or how to disrupt town focus/atmosphere, something like that.
