Mafia 10 Sign Up Thread
« on: 16 May 2013, 13:56 »

The last Mafia game I ran probably turned into one of the bloodiest games so far with just one survivor.

I'm hoping to repeat that this time around!

The concept is very simple. Its based on the horror film The Thing, and if anyone wants an idea for the storyline, it's shortly after the events of the film (the game never happened), and a research team is now beset by an infected member of their team.

There will be a few differences in this game. Namely;
There will be a number of Things among you, but you don't know who they are and they don't know who the others Things are.
Everyone will know who has what roles, you know who the Doctor is, who the Soldier is. Everyone will have a role to play.
The Things will be able to infect others, but these newly infected Things will have no idea who infected them. It will be risky though.
Game days will be shortened (No 72 hours to play through day, it'll be 24 hours for days and 24 hours for night).
Lynchings will be done differently. How? Gotta sign up to find out.

So? Who wants to play? If I can get 14 players, great, but more will make it more fun.

Never played in one of this, and don't know the movie, but I read the wikipedia article about it. Dunno if that's enough. I'd like to take part.

Tvtropes might give you a better idea of the setting. But just act paranoid, it should help.

I wasn't going to play anymore but you just had to make another horror movie themed one. And since I was murdered in the first round in the last one, I'll go ahead and give this one a shot.

You weren't murdered. You killed me and got killed because I was innocent. :-D

Err, Linds is referring to the last game I ran, Mafia 5; in which she was murdered on the first night by Unicorn, Loki and Black Sword.

And folks, there's still three spots left, so it'd be really nice if people took part. I'll be starting the game on Thursday, so there is still plenty of time to sign up. Think of it as a last send off for some of the players.

Yes, I vigilante killed you, but that was a completely different game... Like that horror game was the only one I was legitimately disappointed in being killed first because I like horror movies. Which is really the only reason I'm participating in this one.

To be fair, Linds, you were kind of the most obvious target to remove in Mafia 5. You track record made your elimination a priority....

From the looks of it, Mafia 10 will be the last game for a while as everyone recharges. I suspect we'll all be rarin' to kill each other in August.

I'll take that as a compliment.  :-D

I'm thinking of playing, though I'm not sure I want a distraction from other stuff I'm trying to deal with... oh what the hell, last one for me for a while. Maybe Loki will have a chance to kill me night 1 and I won't have to do anything.  :wink:

Why? Its a last gasp of desperation and venting of frustration. Just imagine all the crap happening over the previous days and then you see big and ugly, are you going to have a sharp and witty comment or are you just going to say "Fuck you too!"?

But now that I have said it, if he winds up dead in the first round, everyone will suspect me (regardless of whether I did it or not). And if he doesn't, everyone will suspect we are on the killer team!

Seriously, I have to get some real-life stuff fixed. Sorry guys :(
