Alternatively, I can ship out the latest batch of snow we got this morning -_- Generous financial contribution? Bah, Kita, work your magic. It's raining wine where you live (yeh yeh I'm a wine fanatic. I took a trip to the NE US last year, including the Finger Lakes, I fell in love with that area pretty fast) But I will never understand the weather patterns in the NE US. WTF? >_< Although I am being told at work that I might be NYC-bound again for another business trip.....someone kill me please. | ||

Veterans joining aren't going to be the issue, one mini just finished this morning and there are two more in progress. The real kickers are getting enough people in the newbie category to join. If you know people from TL or if you came from another mafia site to here, definitely pull your friends in! Edit: there are actually THREE minis in progress. | ||

But I PRed massively, and (somehow) I managed to qualify for Boston though not by much, still really thrilled at all how it went. There was rain on and off the first 6-8 miles of the course, so that was extremely annoying but it got better. Although, I am cringing at the decision to commit and go next spring if I should survive the registration process (which is a pain in the bum) nevermind the cost of getting to Boston. My in-laws live there ironically, so I'd in theory have a place to stay, but still, airfare from Europe in of itself is a joke. :/ Still training for a full is very time intensive, and it's not a light decision no matter which race it is. That said, my legs are still damned sore. And I mean damned sore. Ice bags will be my best friend the next several hours. | ||

On April 29 2015 21:47 disformation wrote: As I already mentioned I've read Newbie Student Mafia VIII. Currently I am reading Newbie Student Mafia VIII (halfway done). Since it seems like this one will take a bit till it starts: Can the Vets recommend me some good Mafias to read? Though I should probably not only read them but try to analyse the plays of people I would have read wrong afterwards. Not sure if will actually get around to that. xD I would say as a beginner stick to the 13-player or 9 player games in terms of reading. Obv different if you choose to play in a large game, which I did do for my second game ever on TL, that's your perogative, and is a good way to mix up even if you ARE inexperienced. But for reading: Newbie LX: Not much the game itself, but geript (as mafia coach) provides a great out of game analysis (page 62) on how to take apart people's posts. This and any other game with external analysis would be great to read as a beginner. (My only game whilst here that I've played with external, so if others have other suggestions, that'd be helpful, even for me.) Student VI: Pretty easy read and textbook game. You will find that in a number of games mafia may be comprised of a team that either doesn't fancy playing mafia or gets caught out too easily, this I recall as one of them. Slytherin Mini and Linux Mini Mafia are also easy reads, and Linux lasted shorter with two modkills. Still you get a sense for how people play in different formats/styles. Hammertime Mafia - 9 player game, pure vanilla and instant majority lynch. Very spammy game, but same deal as the two vet games I mentioned, even if IML doesn't get played often here. Most games here are plurality, no post restriction, and PMs are not allowed. There have been some exceptions. I honestly think you'll get a good sense of the diversity of play and the type of players you'll be on with around here and how games go in general. I'd also recommend Horn of Africa and Debauchery but those two games had very (generally speaking) high-level play, and were very spammy, so they might not be the easiest reads for a beginner, but only if you have loads of time to spare. | ||
