idea pertaining to newbs and games (Mafia)

[Snowflake]

Maybe in the new game the mafia can change killing styles (only one mafia any way) but he has to leave some kind of a clue, like a card with an arrow in a heart or something as his signature.

[Anita Blake]

that would be a good way to differentiate it from mafia

[Trokair]

Ok, guess it's time to end this. How about everyone digest the options and near the end of the current game a possible decision can be made.

Edit: Alright, Cheiftan type person thing........ uhhh..... yeah.

As I have suggested before, you can use the same story for 2 games, maybe a couple of small changes would be needed but not many.

[Snowflake]

By that time both Trokair and Anita may not be newbies any more and I wonder if we will be able find any more newbies.

It doesn't have to be strictly newbies, as it will be a rather dull game with only two players. The game can be used to soak up excess players from the other one, so that everyone who wants to play the games can in one or the other.

Its about bloody time, eh?

Well, since I will be running another Mafia game some time in the future, I will be doing my normal rules. First come, first served, and t'devil take the hindmost.

I think that having two games at the same time would be better for everyone. It sounds like the game is getting too crowded and people who want to play aren't getting the chance to. This will give everyone a better chance of getting into the game.

At the going rate, we'll have a new player everyday.

Either that, or allow people who missed out on the last game to get priority for the next one.

You know, there's only two people that have played in every game of the 19 so far, because there's always been more people interested than there are places.

Next game I run, which may be Mafia XX - the next game, I will be allowing anyone to play as usual, new or old. You have to start somewhere.

My only concern is about people who sign up and then don't participate, but there are many regulars who are pretty guilty of that.

Anita, Trokair, you asked first, as did Alva and Drogue. You get the first 4 slots in the next game, I reckon, as long as you can hang around untill the current mafia are caught.

Nice to see new people, I always think. Certainly its nice to meet new people who are markedly more polite than some of the folks who've been here a few years

Thanx Jam, or Trok, whoever you may be

[Ljube]

Would you be so kind to point me to mafia 12 Jamski.

[Jamski]

I see no reason why a settler couldn't join the main mafia game. But then again 2 games at around 16-20 each would be nice.
