24: Mafia - Sign ups

[KotZ]

*Clock ticking* The following takes place between the beginning of sign ups and the end of it. Events occur in real time. Some moles have infiltrated CTU, The Counter Terrorist Unit headed up by Jack Bauer, the man who famously does not eat or use the restroom as he solves world problems in a single day. He needs help finding the moles who would do the world harm. Are you up to the task? Or are you one of the moles?

1) Have you ever played Mafia before, and what's your experience? If not, have you read some of the games we've had on here?
2) Can you commit to the game timewise?
3) Do you talk in a quiet voice and then shout really loud, repeating what you just asked?

The sign-up thread will run until we hit the bare minimum at least. I'm hoping for 15 but this can be done with a bit less. For your convenience, the rules (modified and stolen from Kintobor, who in turn stole from def) have been attached below, so everyone knows what they're getting into.

The Rules

1. Each player will be given a character to play, who will be aligned with either the CTU (Town) or the Moles (Scum). To win the game, the Town must kill off all the Scum, while the Scum needs to outnumber the Town. Third-party (neutral) characters have their own win conditions as outlined in their roles.

2. Each day you will be able to vote to lynch a player.  Voting is mandatory. Voting should be done in the following format; Vote: Character (Player). Similarly, unvoting is to be done in the format; Unvote: Character (Player).  No other format will be accepted. A majority vote is required to lynch a player. Failure to vote will incur a 2-vote penalty the following game day.

3. A game "Hour"/day will last a maximum of 72 hours. You may not vote in the first 24 hours. The day will end when a majority vote has been reached after 72 hours. After the "Hour"/day has been concluded, an "Off-hour"/night stage will commence, which will last 48 hours. "Off-hour"/night actions must be sent to the host in the first 20 hours of the "Off-hour"/night stage.

3.5. Players may not target the same player two nights in a row, and may not target themselves.

4. The alignment of lynched players, as well as those that died during the "Off-hour"/night, will be revealed at the beginning of the next "Hour"/day.

5. You may not quote or pretend to quote anything sent to or from you in PM with the game host, or in PM with any other players. This includes all the details of your character and role, as well as any night action results. Role claims and reporting of night action results are acceptable, but in your own words only. Do not attempt to use the structure of your role PM to your advantage.

6. Do not play the game outside the thread. Similarly, do not post out of character inside the thread. Game tactics and roles may only be discussed in the game thread or via PM with other players. Private discussion is done at your own risk and should be treated as part of the game.

7. If you are dead, you may not post in thread or discuss the game with any of the players. Any information you had becomes void, and may not be passed on.

8. You may not edit your posts.

9. You must post in every day thread. 

10. If you encounter a problem or have a question, please contact the host via PM.

11. Violation of any of the above rules will result in a 5 vote penalty for the first offence, and death on your second offence.

12. There are no hints or clues in the day/night images.

13. The Town automatically loses if they have not lynched all Scum/Evil players by the end of the "Day" (essentially 12 game days and 12 game nights).

1) Have you ever played Mafia before, and what's your experience? If not, have you read some of the games we've had on here?

Half a dozen or so games, here on EB.  Almost won once.

2) Can you commit to the game timewise?

Yes!

3) Do you talk in a quiet voice and then shout really loud, repeating what you just asked?

I have quiet voice.  Let me know if you can't hear me, and I'll put caps lock on.

[Khscarymovie4]

1) Yes, many games.

2) For the most part yes. But of course not tommorow or New Year's Eve and New Year's day. Those days I will be busy. 

3) WHAT DID YOU SAY?

Guilty as charged.  I'm ready to step back into the Mafia scene!

1. Well, I just hosted a game, and last time I played I was murdered Night One while on an intergalactic battle station, so I'd say I do have some experience.

2. I can definitely commit to the time provided.

3. Let's see how small the font can get... 

AND HOW BIG THE FONT CAN GET!!!

[Trekkie99]

So soon?! Sign me up!

1: Yes. Four games so far I believe

2: Definitely!

3: No I'm the opposite in rl. I speak really loudly and then repeat myself in a quieter voice 

Calling @Kwatchi, @Lord Duvors, @Actor Builder, @mediumsnowman, @Sandy, @Peanuts, @Drunknok, @Umbra-Manis, and anyone else who's missed out on some of our more recent games! 

[Tariq j]

1.) Lots of games! I've been a SHIELD security guard, a samurai, a Doctor, a sound editor, a juror and most recently, Batgirl. Im pretty sure I won an Oscar for my soundtrack. 

2.) Yep. Will be able too.

3.) REPEAT WHAT I JUST SAID?? YES!!!

[Asphalt]

1) Yes, but it's been a while.

2) I'll be out of town, incommunicado, from about Friday until Jan 1st but otherwise I'm fine - if that's an issue, then just leave me out.

3) I think so I think so

[mostlytechnic]

1. Yep, played a few time.

2. Yep, nothing is more important than rooting out the moles (or taking down the ctu, depending on which side I end up on)

3. Mostly when talking to my children who like to ignore me, mostly cause they've always got earbuds in.

 Well as I said I was interested in getting some people who haven't played in a while to join.

Oh wait. You were killed night one last game.  Oof sorry.

Ouch. This got personal! 

[Bob]

1) Never.

2) Usually.

3) I’ve never seen the show. 

[Trekkie99]

Two more to go!

[KotZ]

Almost there!

[Lady K]

1) Have you ever played Mafia before, and what's your experience? If not, have you read some of the games we've had on here?

As many as I can

2) Can you commit to the game time wise?

Yes

3) Do you talk in a quiet voice and then shout really loud, repeating what you just asked?

And then shout again while asking my two young adult sons if they can repeat what I just asked them to do (Because Overwatch, and now Destiny 2 are so more important)

Ok, admittedly I need my daily dose of Destiny 2 as much as them......
 

[KotZ]

One more to go!

[KotZ]

I'll keep this open until January 2nd and then we'll get this game started if we don't have a 15th.

[Zepher]

1. Mafia yes I've done it.

2. Yes! Haven't played in a while, so will have to remind myself of what a wild commitment it is, but I'm ready to get back in.

3. I often shout when I'm excited and I'm often excited and don't really have a quiet voice. 

[Trekkie99]

That's everyone! Happy new year!
