From next Sunday I hope to run the Resistance/Avalon game Revolution III. It's a hidden role game like mafia. Slots open!

Probably just gotta wait for Election Day to wind down, and people to get a little break from the very intense MMMM.

It makes me a little sad panda to look at old games and see that the entire playerlist no longer plays mafia here.

Edit: What brought this on was looking at the playerlist of Operation Overlord and realizing that none of the 13 player playerlist or the two spoilspecs are still around.

There's some funny posts in the old games. This is from the very first mafia game on this forum:

Hmm, I thought it's only popular in Russia. It's not well suited for forums, because you need to see and hear a person to properly guess their motives.

Web played in the first mafia game to actually finish (Pirate Mafia, Mafia #3 in December 2008).

Caz played in that game? And Persus13 played a few games back.

...Today we also learned I can't read.

There's a lot of amazing quotes buried in the old games, yeah. I'm too lazy to go quote mining though.

Edit: Okay one single quote

I'm not evil. I'm just Bad. :P

Honestly even realizing I've been playing mafia for seven years makes me feel old.

And I'm not even that old!

Mafia got me through high school and my teenage years. I think it's one of the things that defines me as a person.

I was actually introduced to the forum by my first ex. I made an account, posted like three times of my own accord, and then he talked me into learning to play Mafia here. He actually liked DF, LOL, and made mods and LPs (can't remember what you call them here). I was just an extremely lonely college student.

He also introduced me to: drinking loose-leaf tea (and the very first time I had chai), falafel, homemade granola, action movies, science fiction books, math with proofs, 1st-person perspective computer games (e.g. Portal), Thai food, Chinese vegetarian cooking, and The New York Times. . . . Yep, I owe him a lot. I'm really glad I got to meet you guys.

Meph's Beginner Mafia game must be counted as one of the forum's all time successes as it seems to be the entry point for these four:

I... may join. Just to see what the hell is so great about these forum games.
I've been studying the rules of a few more popular mafias, but I haven't actually played one.  I'd like to have a go, please.
Arr?  I'll join if possible.
All right.  Sign me up, please.

There's more not quite mafia about recently which could maybe interest you. There's the Revolution game in signups, but also there's a game of Coup in signups on the main board. We played one night werewolf a month or so back as well. All alternative hidden role games.

Cool, I stickied it.
Neat, thanks!
