I think there should be a way for prospective players to communicate (if allowed) with the remaining players.

This keeps appearing in the Forum... but it seems webdip formatted, because the threads morph around it

Further clarification:

Players will be modkilled if they continually and excessively refer to DeathLlama9 as DeathLlama9 simply to make his arguments seem ridiculous through the overuse of his name.

Saladin, Balki, and TrPrado will not be hazed by the more experienced players.

DemonOverlord will not be referred to as "the fake LittleItaly".

Being Hellenic Riot will no longer be considered a power role.

All players will try to take Bo_sox seriously.

y2k will be smoking throughout the duration of the game but this will not make Vashta neurotic.
Yoyoyozo (65 D)

@wjessop

I need further clarification. How much should we try to take bo_sox seriously? Should we try to look past the fact that he's the worst, or should be serious enough to realize that looking past this is futile?

@yoyo:

I appreciate that this rule will be amongst the hardest to follow of the new rules being implemented to webdip Mafia. All I can say is that the GMs will observe this rule with leniency.

Actually I have already written all of my essays for this game. I have certain keywords which I can easily change to player names, but the arguments all well over 20k words with lists of statistics (lol) from earlier games are in place. Page 1 you will see a huge multi-part analysis from me...

Remember, with me it's always a "brainslip" when I'm right and a "scumslip" when I'm wrong. If I'm scum, I make perfect sense.

Can I be exempted from the bo rule? I was laughing so hard half the time last game.
@TrPrado, I will no doubt use a healthy number of posts to pontificate about the game of mafia, and the state of existence itself. I will do so with piercing and epiphanizing candor.

I believe the general rule is that if you fancy yourself some kind of prodigy detective, and you own a magnifying glass and a trench coat, folded up, in your Thomas the Train toybox, you will likely interpret my contributions as nefarious, and begin a single-minded effort to silence me. If you are town, you will conclude that I am mafia, and immediately lynch me. If you are mafia, you will conclude that I must be in a secret rival mafia, and immediately kill me.
ND (879 D)

I am going to work to earn town credit it will be my only goal.
@ND, what do your advanced logistic regression model say about people who provide perfectly accurate quotations?
I'll tell you one thing I'm going to do differently in this next game. I'm going to be freaking bitter, snarky, and generally disgruntled.
Espi (338 D)
18 Sep 15 UTC
Don't do it BB, don't give into the dark side!!!
and I won't defend myself passively when ND targets me, based on an assumption that ND must be response testing because he couldn't possibly be so foolish as to suspect that I am scum based on such a nonsensical argument.
I guess that, what I'm trying to say here, and I just haven't taken the opportunity to say this yet in the aftermath of the last game, and I suppose I need to get it out...what I am trying to say is...

@ND, YOUR ARGUMENT TO MISLYNCH ME LAST GAME WAS STRABISMIC DRIVEL! IT WAS WORSE, EVEN, THAN YOUR FALLACIOUS REMEDIAL HIGH SCHOOL, CLASS MEDIAN STATISTICS. AND THAT IS SAYING SOMETHING

LIKE A MISSPELLED "SWEET PEE" TATTOO, IT IS SOMETHING THAT I WILL NEVER FORGET. I WILL TAKE IT WITH ME ALWAYS. AND SEEING YOUR NOXIOUS MONIKER ON MY COMPUTER SCREEN WILL BE AKIN TO STANDING IN FRONT OF THE MIRROR, LIFTING UP MY SHIRT, AND GAWKING IN HORROR AT MY INDELIBLE MISSPELLED SCAR AS I CONCEIVE AGAIN THAT THE ATROCITY WAS NOT A NIGHTMARE, IT WAS A THING THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED.
Completely unrelated question: have we ever considered supporting bold or italics html tags on this forum? I feel like they might be useful.

@BB: I really don't want to get into last game analysis, but I will say that (like I said in-game previously) I don't regret the vote and I would do it again if you or anyone else said something like that in-game. I would fully expect everyone to lynch me if I said something like that. There is another thread for analysis of that game if you want to take it there.

So does anyone here live (or used to live) in the area arounf Albany up to Saratoga Springs, NY? Did you like living there? Not like it? Any opinions would be helpful provided they are truthful.

How can this move be done?
I am in a world game, and just saw a fleet move from Ukraine to Poland. How is this possible. I double-checked the map, and also looked at the orders for said country (just to be sure I wasn't seeing an army instead of a fleet). Is there some secret passage I am not aware of? Or am I just dense and missing something? Thanks in advance for any answers you have.

Full press anon live game Saturday afternoon (CET)
Looking to play a live game with full press with at least a few Dutch people this saturday at 14:00 CET, but looking for a few more players. Were aiming for a game with 15:00 minutes phase lengts and good quality play and press, and no nmr's. Just as a full disclosure, I know the other dutch players from F2F - but we havent played together online before and there will be no metagaming between us.
