Just waiting on one more. If all goes well Day One should be up later today.

So far, five have confirmed.

Excalibur Mafia 4: The Next Chapter (Players only please!) It has been about one hundred years since the events of the previous game. In that time, the United Nations of Earth has expanded deep into the galaxy and, for the first time, encountered two different alien civilizations. The Arkantii, a lithoid species, and the Trillek, an avian species. The three of them, rather than fight, decided to join together and form the United Planets. Yet the galaxy is turning out to be a very lonely place. With all their exploring, the United Planets is finding a plethora of alien life, but hardly any alien species. Still, that doesn't mean the galaxy they're exploring is safe... Players (8): Commander Te'voka - Darkdragon Lt. Commander Dustin Pherson - Duvors Lt. Commander Hiveon Cheseelo - Zepher Lt. Commander Dr. Hailey Macdougal - Tariq j Lieutenant James Riley - Rumble Strike Lieutenant Christine Arnold - EmersonDAnite Lieutenant Reechsavo Heecan - Jimmynick Lieutenant Gabriel Fenton - KotZ Rules:1) You are either Town or Corrupted. The town need to eliminate the mafia and the mafia need to outnumber the town. In the hopefully unlikely event of a parity, the mafia will win. There are no third parties.2) A game day will last 72 hours. You may vote after 24 hours. Even if a majority vote is achieved, the day will not end early. Nights will last at most 48 hours, during which you can send in your night actions. 3a) Do not talk about the game outside of the threads.3) Each day you can vote to lynch a player. Voting is mandatory. It should be done in this fashion: Vote: Character (Player) Unvote: Character (Player) Ensure your vote is in bold so I don't miss it please!4) The alignment of players who have been lynched, as well as those who may have died during the night, will be revealed at the beginning of the next day. 5) You may not quote or pretend to quote anything sent to you by the game host via PM. This includes the details of your character and role, as well as any night actions results. Role claims and reporting of results are acceptable, but in your own words only.6) If you die, you may not post in thread or discuss the game with any players. Any information you had is not allowed to be passed on under any circumstances. 7) Don't edit your posts, please! 8) Please try to post every day!

I'll close the sign-ups now. If anyone wants to join between now and when I send out roles, feel free to PM me.

I don’t see why not.

We'll give it another day or so. Feel free to reach out to people to try to recruit them in as well.

We've got six people in, we need a couple more!

Still hoping for a few more spots!

I've included a basic rundown of the rules in the first post!

This is the 4th or 5th iteration of Excalibur Mafia! The ten year anniversary of this mafia. I'm looking for an unknown amount of players and I'm going to try to keep it open for a couple of days. If you've never played mafia before, feel free to give it a shot! For anyone new wanting to participate, I've included a simplified version of the rules below. Simply put, mafia is a game in which the town attempt to vote out the smaller mafia before they're outnumbered. Rules:1) You are either Town or Mafia. The town need to eliminate the mafia and the mafia need to outnumber the town. In the hopefully unlikely event of a parity, the mafia will win. There are no third parties.2) A game day will last 72 hours. You may vote after 24 hours. Even if a majority vote is achieved, the day will not end early. Nights will last at most 48 hours, during which you can send in your night actions. 3a) Do not talk about the game outside of the threads.3) Each day you can vote to lynch a player. Voting is mandatory. It should be done in this fashion: Vote: Character (Player) Unvote: Character (Player) Ensure your vote is in bold so I don't miss it please!4) The alignment of players who have been lynched, as well as those who may have died during the night, will be revealed at the beginning of the next day. 5) You may not quote or pretend to quote anything sent to you by the game host via PM. This includes the details of your character and role, as well as any night actions results. Role claims and reporting of results are acceptable, but in your own words only.6) If you die, you may not post in thread or discuss the game with any players. Any information you had is not allowed to be passed on under any circumstances. 7) Don't edit your posts, please! 8) Please try to post every day!

I love this a lot!

Coming Soon! Excalibur Mafia 4 or 5 or 6, I can't remember which because it's been about eight years. Signups to follow soon.

Something that really hurt Vidiyo was the price.

Probably a very unpopular opinion: I dislike the amount of licensed IPs that LEGO has now. I went into a LEGO store for the first time in awhile recently and I feel like over half of the store is comprised of licensed products, a majority of which comes from the IDEAs. LEGO used to be very good at coming up with their own counterparts to popular intellectual properties, i.e. Adventurers taking the place of Indiana Jones. It's lost its charm a little bit, but maybe I'm just nostalgic for a different era. I feel as though most of LEGO's big original themes (Space, Pirates, Town, Castle) are gone, with only Town/City remaining. When I look through the various themes on their webside, the majority of them are intellectual properties. With that said, some licensed and IDEA sets have still been very good, I'm not knocking all IPs and IDEA sets. Just lamenting that there's a lack of originality and creativity and more reliance on established properties.

That's actually really funny. "Here, have a free set for your troubles --- just kidding no set for you."

Night Actions: Night One: Rumble Strike (Investigate) - Ron (Zepher) Failure Kaanare (Protect) - Susan (Jack Sassy) Success Scum Kill: Fred (Rumble Strike) Success Night Two: Kaanare (Protect) - Ron (Zepher) Failure Scum Kill: Al (Kaanare) Success Night Three: Scum Kill: Cheryl (Hinckley) Success Night Four: Scum Kill: Ron (Zepher) Success

I don't think anything will ever be as bad as Bloodbrick.

Main Street Mafia 2: Conclusion - It's All Over! It's been a few minutes since Geoff has been taken away and arrested and Ron has a question. "What now?" he asks. "Do we win??" "Well, no. We do." Susan pulls out a gun and aims it at Ron. "Mon dieu!" "Cool it with the French accent, you're from Milwaukee." BANG That marks the end of Ron (Zepher). He was a member of the Town. "It's all good, you can come out now boss!" Out of the Town Hall steps Bill, the Godfather of the Maintown Mafia "You've done well, you two." "Bill! You'll never get away with this!" "Oh, but we already have. We outnumber you now, so we win. That's how mafia works." "...Shit, he's right." "Don't worry, we're not going to kill you. We need you to run the businesses that we're now taking over as fronts." "NOT SO FAST!" shouts someone from off camera "It's the FBI! We're saved!" Gordon shouts. "I have good news. We've done some research and we're going to launch an official investigation." Agent Johnson says. "...Is that it?" "Yes, that's all we can do for now. We'll give you a call in a couple of weeks to let you know how it's going. Ta-ra!" With that, the agents leave. Congratulations to the winners, Jack Sassy and Tariq j! --- The game is a series of unfortunate missteps and misfortunes by the town and some good misdirection and confusion by the scum team. I'll get your night actions out soon, but it's nothing too complex in a game this small.

Anyway, Cheryl is killed. "Bad news." Gordon starts. "Cheryl was murdered last night. And she was a member of the Town!" There's a collective gasp of disappointment.
