Further note:

Mafia team players are allowed to *look* at the Mafia QT at any time - but you are not allowed to *post* there outside of the night phases.

PLAYERS:

Check your private messages, as all role PMs have now been sent out. PM me back with any questions about your role.


A reminder of some very IMPORTANT rules:

- Players in the game, including those who have died, must not contact each other to discuss the game, via PM, email, Skype, Discord, or any other means. This applies NOW and it continues to apply until the game has ended.

- All communication should take place in the game thread, once the game opens. This has been posted seperately on this forum in the Forum Games section. The exception to this is the Mafia night-time discussion, which may only take place in the Mafia QT. Mafia players have now been sent a link to this location.

Sign-ups are now closed and I will perform the draw. You will all get a PM in around an hour's time, with your role.

Sign-ups close in about 7 minutes, FWIW, and the game will start two hours after that, at 11pm BST.

GM NOTE

In order that I can do the role draw and prepare the PMs, sign-ups will close TWO HOURS before the game starts.

GM NOTE

Apparently I don't know what time zone I currently live in. Of course UK time is currently BST, not GMT. The game will therefore start in four hours, at 11pm BST.

For the serious answer, judging from Jamie's posts back on page 1, they will:

1. Track the game.
2. Compose a PM regarding your play at the end of turns for you to learn from.
3. Hang out in the god thread for active discussions once you die.

Dunno if that helps. Looks like its mostly PM based.
Precisely this. At the end of each game day, each player still alive will receive a PM from me (but drafted by one of the coaches) giving some feedback on their play so far. The two coaches will also be in the God QT to give additional feedback and answer questions for players that have died.

In general, ghug sucks, bo is the worst, and I am the most cool. Any statistics that deny those true facts are fake news.
Bo isn't the worst, at least he isn't at the games I play.

The spreadsheet ceased being updated at M22
Ghug may have gotten much worse since then, I dunno.

Re: Mafia tutorial / newbie game?

Id go through all the games and update it but I think win % is relatively easy to calculate based off the data already in there on a player like ghug for example
