All this game does is make me angry
The interpersonal aspect of this game is just so frustrating. My expectations for how this game is played is completely thrown out the window.

Brand new game with full disclosure (A Midsummer's Eve)
I have just created a brand new game, password protected, non-anon and full press. If still permitted, I would like to play this game with someone whom I know in real life. This player is Doug7878 who is my Dad.
The password is the word "agree," entirely in lowercase.

Day phases will be 48 hours and Night phases will be 24 hours long.

As of today we do not have subs. We believe that since this is an invitational game there should be no reason for substitute players. So if someone drops then we would modkill the player that drops.

----Players----

ND: GM
Captainmeme: GM

Chaqa: A participant in every mafia game on webDip, something unique among the players here and an achievement held jointly with only one other person on the site. This includes GMing two games, another joint record (this time with two other people).

Fluminator: Well known for always getting a Power Role, Fluminator used his Oracle ability to gain a joint MVP award in M8 by successfully targeting mafia and sparking the town’s victory push.

Ghug: Started playing in M2, and has not missed a game since, gaining the MVP award in M3 for his performance at MYLO to secure a town victory. Ghug currently holds the record for the most total points in Mafia.

Guak: Another regular who only missed M1, and has displayed high level play throughout all his games, especially as Mafia, for which he won the MVP award in M7 after the most successful bus attempt the site has ever seen.

Hellenic Riot: Although he’s only played one phase (being killed N1 in his only game) on webDip, he equals the record for the most GM’d games, and brings a lot of experience from play on other sites.

Krellin: One of the participants in the first mafia game on the site, and the Mafia MVP from M2, Krellin is one of the most iconic early Mafia players and is making a return specifically for this game.

Maniac: Now the king of second place, the M5 MVP held the records for Highest Total Points and Most Points Per Game (for players with 4 or more games), before a loss in M9 led to them being taken by Ghug and VashtaNeurotic respectively.

OB_Gyn_Kenobi: A more recent participant, OB_Gyn started playing in M6 and has only missed one game since. He made his mark with a fake rant upon being revealed as mafia in M5; the first of its kind on the site and one that took a significant number of prominent town members in and helped secure victory for his team.

President Eden: As the player who first brought the game to webDip, PE is the reason there is a scene here at all. After GMing M1, he took over a Vanilla Town player as a substitute in M2 and subsequently carried the town to victory, earning an MVP award.

thdfrance: After getting shot by the Vigilante N1 in both of his first two games, thd persisted and turned his survival record on its head, making it to LYLO as both the Doctor and the Friendly Neighbour in the following games.

tvrocks: Another more recent participant, tvrocks first played in M6 and has only missed one game since. He notably led the town to victory in the lategame of M8 by shooting the werewolf and then lynching the correct target at LYLO.

uclabb: Another regular, having only missed M1. The term ‘fear-killing’ instantly brings uclabb to mind - notable for being the only player (so far) to have gained this reputation for always being killed by the mafia early.

VashtaNeurotic: Currently holds the record for the Highest Points Per Game (for players with 4 or more games), at an impressive 3.17. He also equals the record for the most games GM’d, and holds a joint MVP award for his faking of the Vig role in M8, both helping take down the werewolf and wasting the mafia’s roleblock.

WardenDresden: One of the original players, Warden has only missed Mafia 6, 5 and 9, the last of which he co-GM’d. He earned an MVP award for M4 after an early bus on a teammate allowed him to gain the trust of most of the town, eventually taking the game to a draw thanks to the roleblock-NK immunity interaction, but getting very close to winning the game for the mafia.

Wjessop: The newest player on the roster, having only played in M9, Wjessop was awarded MVP in M9 for his excellent play and assistance in helping the Mafia achieve victory. He was almost universally townread until he counterclaimed the Oracle, putting in one of the strongest first game performances the site has ever seen.

Yoyoyozo: Originally participating in M6 and having joined every game since, Yoyo is notable for both his strong performance in his first game, being one of the main forces behind the first scum lynch, and his insight in M5, being the only player to correctly identify both mafia members at LYLO.

y2kjbk: The only player from the winning side of M1 playing, y2k has only missed three games since Mafia’s inception on the site, and has taken the position of GM once. He is a proven survivor, often getting to late game and making an impact there.


If you have been added to this list by mistake please let myself or Captainmeme know. If you have any suggestions for the roles or game itself please comment below. We will be unveiling the theme and roles the day before start. All roles will be PMed before game start with the game beginning on July 21st, 2015.

Good Luck!

Looks like a solid roster. I wish captain was playing, since he is definitely deserving, but it will be good to have a veteran GM and co-GM.

So are we keeping power roles to a minimum? Making this a game of more pure scumhunting?
Fluminator (1500 D)
08 Jul 15 UTC
Bo should be in. Coming in drunk and scum slipping in the first post allowed his scum buddies to bus him instantly and gain the town cred to win the game. What a selfless move on his part.
I'm pretty sure him not being in is due to him being unable to play mafia until August/September.

Not a bad group, surprised some of this motley crew scrapped over the low bar set by Ghug, but hey-ho whatever.

CDs and the collapse of empires
Just wanted to observe how frustrating it is when a player becomes less committed to the game when they look to be in trouble. What can possibly be done to stop this ruining end games for everyone else?

(Also, someone (ghug?) mentioned not long ago a game where Germany recovered from 2 centres to solo. I can't find it again, can someone point me in the right direction?)

The Deathcount of Wall Street
I was thinking of doing some research on how many people died by Wall Street practices (through sucking companies out causing unemployment, profiting from and at the cost of pension funds ruining people's pensions, etc, etc.).

Does anyone have an idea of where to start and how to go about this?

Why so many gunboat games ?
I don't really have a problem with gunboat but I thought this game was designed for people to talk between themselves and scheme and form alliances in advance and fool your allies telling them you will, for example, support them somewhere but end up attacking them instead. For a few weeks I've seen only gunboat (live games)
