Looking for a decent game (RR96%)
I'm looking to join a game with players that will actually play. I haven't played for a couple of years and was quickly reminded why I stopped when in Autumn 01 3 people failed to submit orders in my first game back. My RR is 96% (I'm still ashamed it's not 100% - I CD'ed once before RR was visible and didn't know it would negatively affect my stats). I prefer to play classic. Other than that, I'm not too bothered on rules or phase length. Also, I love players that "ready" often.

Throwing a game
What is everybody's opinion on players throwing a game? There's a debate going on in a game of mine whether it's a form of metagaming or a valid strategy, or just unsportsmanlike, and I'd be curious to see how everyone feels about it.

Gunboat as Austria: Suicide pact with Italy
Premise: Whenever playing gunboat as Austria and you are attacked by Italy right out of the gate, one should always give up as many centers to Turkey as possible and get your last dying armies onto the boot to drag Italy down with you. This is the only way the madness will stop.

That was my main reservation on the Ezio vs. HR vs. Balduran thing. I could justify ANY of them being scum because they had all equally bussed...

So when HR made that big case on Balduran, and my own research sort of agreed with it, I figured it was at least possible. I also figured that if HR was wrong, he was probably scum, hence my "vote HR if Balduran is town" thing.

I waffled a bit at the end, but the deciding factor was just how indifferent HR seemed to the Balduran flip. Town HR would have been royally pissed off.
Once it's apparent there's bussing you know HR is scum
Chaqa (3971 D(B))
28 Feb 17 UTC
I guess.

The big mistake of town, IMO, was actually the Moscow lynch. Both of us kind of figured he was probably town, but I know I didn't feel like taking up the torch and defending him because it would have been a really hard thing to do.

So who is MVP?

I would vote for Vash.
I mean the reaction "oh bollocks" I felt was appropriate, because by then I was decided upon HR and it seemed Chaqa was too.

Maniac is a hybrid. He can subtle meta shift between 4-5 unique identities that make him fun to play against/with.

ND (879 D)

I am GMing and Brain is going to be my Co-GM if our proposal is accepted. I have spoken to Brain about this and if he is not allowed to Co-GM then I will accept applications from the community for my Co-GM position.

I'm resigning from the Mafia council. I've done what I can to try to help the community, but I'm really not interested in Mafia anymore and I want to divert my effort to other things.

The amount of anger and hate that we get for trying to make sure that people can have fun playing Mafia here is really depressing, so I want to thank HR and Flum for continuing to put up with it. I just don't want to anymore.

@ND - Your GM request was taking a while to process for a couple of reasons - you submitted a player who is banned from GMing as your co-GM and we were divided on whether to allow that, and you submitted a setup that was incredibly far from a Vanilla game directly after I released the GM guidelines that recommended a more vanilla style of mafia for the majority of future games. 28 was supposed to be Maniac's game in any case...

Thank you for the feedback Captain and I am incredibly sorry to see you resign from the council. If someone from the council would like to speak to me I would be more than happy to work through any concerns about the setup or any other issue. If there is a schedule of future GM's (I am unaware of this though) then I would like to request to be added to it with a setup, but this can be handled through communication or email if necessary.

I feel like I handled some very controversial issues recently professionally and cooperatively. I think I am a creative person and my setup is fun. My character issues are that I was rude to ND recently so I reached out to him to collab a game together.

I think the bigger issue is what I did last may. And really I was an assistant to DO in her game. I feel I was helpful and professional. I hope you understand I want to be an ambassador to the games and keep new players playing.

See discord V if interested.
