EPTTL Video Mafia
I know there is already a webcam mafia that's hosted regularly on Wednesday's (koibu - http://esportsmafia.com/), however, I feel like in the interest of getting to know one another we should start our own TL Mafia version! We would do it the same way the esports mafia is done, i.e. We will host a Zoom chat (can be downloaded free here - http://www.zoom.us/) and people will join it and we can get games started based on how many people are signed up.
It's super simple and I think it adds to the community bonding spirit if we get to put names and voices to faces. Obviously you don't have to take part if you don't want to (I can just stick my stream up if you want to watch) but I like the ability to see faces when playing mafia, it's a completely different game when you can get tells and make cases based on facial expressions and it's not as manic as voice mafia. I think it's a nice inbetween from voice and forum.

A lot of people seem to be scrubs with getting zoom downloaded so here is a guide:
+ Show Spoiler [zoom setup] +
First and foremost go to the Zoom Website (click me!) and then click the top right login button!

Once you've done that you get taken to the login page, you have several methods of registering here. You can either login with a Google account, a Facebook account or you can sign up with your own details and e-mail. In the interest of stopping the Google/Facebook super watching powers, it's probably best to just sign up with your regular TL name and an e-mail address. In order to do this click the sign up button here:

Once you have done that enter your details in the boxes provided (I think last name can be left blank) and hit sign up!

After you've signed up it's time to download the Zoom client! There is a Windows and a Mac link.

Once in the settings you want to make sure all the settings in the audio and video tabs (on the left) are correct and people will be able to hear/see you properly! You can hit test speakers and test mic to test audio!

Once you are all done, just wait in the TL Video Chat on skype (send me your skype if you haven't) and when the time comes I will send you a link that will automatically open the zoom meeting for you!
Setup

Voting
DailyMafia employs a single-target majority lynch system via the “Formal” process for deciding who the town should kill on any given day. At any point during the day a player may “formal” another player whom they wish to kill. Another player in the game must second the formal to put the player on the chopping block. The defendant has 5 minutes to give a defense before voting commences. During a player’s defense, other players in the game may talk and discuss as long as it is related to the person up for lynch. Once the player is finished defending and everyone else has concluded their thoughts on said player, the vote commences. A majority of the town (strictly greater than fifty percent) must be voting in order for the player to get lynched. A player may vote to lynch himself.
General Rules
Days typically do not last longer than 40 minutes. As the player count decreases so does the day timer.
The town is allowed one 10-minute extension to use on a day of their choosing. This must be voted on and a majority of the town must be voting in order for the extension to be activated.
No talking is permitted during the night phase. Mafia can only suggest names for the kills (which must be confirmed by all members of the team) and they cannot discuss strategy.
Stream/VoD'S

Need moar pplz!
Post after this to show interest or PM me!
Also, I think we should do what dailymafia does and host a skype chat with everyone that shows interest, so if you do want to play, post your skype name here too!
The best days seem to be the weekend and in the interest of making this fair to all timezones it will be hosted during the day and so the following times are most likely (subject to change based on response) when it will be taking place.
Saturday/Sunday 00:00 GMT (+00:00)
Sunday/Monday 00:00 GMT (+00:00)
4 hours later would be awesome.
