Hi I am new, quick question
I am starting a game with some friends, can you play with less than 7 people? If so, is anything different compared to a full game? Thanks :-)

Pacific Northwest FTF
I've only ever played FTF with people who don't really care about the game and want to be done after a year, and I always feel a twinge of jealousy when I sew those people having fun playing in real life on that crappy coast across the country. This is just a post to see who might be interested in getting something set up on this side of the country. I'm in the Seattle area.

Conundrum
So the people who make the schedules at my school are kinda dumb. I signed up for both AP Micro/Macroeconomics and AP European History. Only one class of each is being offered. And they happen to be the same hour. So I need to drop one and pick up some other course. I really don't know, so what (preferably AP) course would you suggest for me to take instead of AP Micro/Macroeconomics (because there's no chance I'll drop Euro)?

MAFIA XI: Sign-ups

Hello everyone,

As Mafia X, the All Stars game, is being set-up/running, I’d like to also set up and run a game with an emphasis on learning. Ghug will Co-GM. I am looking for 13 players interested in playing. Please note that this is a multi-week commitment. In addition, there is a minimum post requirement of 5 per 48 hours, and that’s just the minimum not to go into Mafia CD, it’s expected you will post much more than the minimum.

The format is extremely vanilla, and will focus on basic Mafia, the ability to lie, deceive, convince, lead, elucidate, and win with your words.

Days will be 48 hours, nights will be 24 hours. Phase shifts will probably be 3 pm PST / 6 pm EST.
Game will start with 13 sign-up at or after July 14th.

I don't think we're making All-Stars Mafia 10. Maybe this could also be a non-numbered mafia game? Maybe I just don't want to miss a mafia game, lol.
Valis2501 (2850 D(G))

I'm sure someone will fill in number 10; in absence of communication that was my understanding.

Not a huge deal though. We did skip M5 in favor of a joke about the search for Mafia 5, and come back to it.

I didn't think it should be since it's an all-stars game, as opposed to a regular game
Yoyoyozo (95 D)
07 Jul 15 UTC
But you're not complaining that this game is being numbered as Mafia XI? This also isn't a regular game. I think for the sake of simplicity, we should number both of these games. If someone wants to go back and look at the games for some reason, knowing the chronological order is important.
Yoyoyozo (95 D)
07 Jul 15 UTC
Also, I call BS. There has to be another reason why you want the All Star game to not be numbered. This doesn't strike me as a particularly important matter but I'm curious as to why you brought this up.
Brankl (231 D)

There seemed to be a lot of interest in GMing the all-star game, so I'm surpised more of those (failed) candidates haven't signed up for this yet. I don't really care what type of game it is, I just want to play some more Mafia! I hope that's ok--I figure I'm still a beginner.

Good luck getting the requisite number of people on such a short time frame. I think the GMs would be better off taking time to set up high-quality games with reliable players with lengthy lead time rather than throwing one together at the last minute. This feels rushed to me. But hey, I can't participate until early August anyway, so it doesn't directly affect me.

@Jeff,
wtf? Is Mafia going to turn into a game where we set them up in secret, vetting each player and confirming by PM, then reveal which of the already established community gets to play this game?

What's last minute about it? The starting conditions is 13 players AND after-July-14th. It could start in 2016 for all I care and all I've said, is that enough lead time for you? If someone shows up with a day 0 account called "IgetModKilled" I'm gonna ask them not to participate; I'm not gating by experience doesn't mean I'm not gating by reliability.

It is summer. There are distractions and vacations. Mafia is a time commitment. If people realize that and are truly all in, go for it. I'm just a bit jaded by those who drop out from the game after it starts. Anyway, truly, good luck with it. Mafia can be great fun.

Don't be a drag, participate!

Thanks for the well wishes Jeff. I'm hoping it runs smoothly. It shouldn't take more than 2 weeks with only 13 players.

Getting Germany every single game
Hi everybody, I'd like to ask if anyone has experience with an account getting a certain country every single game. One of my friends who I've played in several games against has drawn Germany out of the pot every single time. We're onto the fifth time out of 5 games he's gotten Germany.

I'd put it up to chance but we've reached 5 sigma and are on our way to 6. Thoughts?
