Raids in Belgium on Terror Cells; 100+ Arrested Across Europe
http://www.cnn.com/2015/01/15/world/belgium-anti-terror-operation/ "A Western Intelligence source tells CNN that the ongoing terror threat appears to involve up to 20 sleeper cells of between 120 to 180 people ready to strike in France, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands." 2014 was a year that will remembered for a lot of violence in the Middle East...might we remember 2015 as the year that violence came to Europe and the West?

Can't Ready Up Building fewer units than earned?
I want to save one of my builds for later. I entered one build but left the other blank since I don't want to use it yet. The order won't allow me to 'Ready' up. Will the one build still go through? Is this a bug, or is it a rule that I must use all my builds?

CONGRATULATIONS to wpfieps
Check out gameID=153815 where wpfieps managed to solo as Turkey - gamely playing on while Italy, Austria, France and Russia all DMR'd. Never even considering cancelling or drawing the game.

It's players like that who make me hate this place sometimes.

Mafia Sign Up Thread
If you're interested in playing a game beginning sometime after January 11, post here. I'll take on the GM role alone initially but I would love to have a co-GM if anyone is interested in that.

We can also discuss details of the next game. Preliminarily, there will be no SK and two primary factions (town/mafia). I would love to get creative with power roles if others are interested too.

Yeah, sure, I'll give you a hint on the theme:

For the original mafia crew here on webDip, it will sound quite familiar.

That's your hint. Have fun.
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))
18 Dec 14 UTC
Yes, I am going to cut off sign up for now. We have 20, and that should do just fine. If you all want to run a game in my absence, feel free to grab M6, but I will simply be observing from Japan. A break never hurts, though, I don't think.

Maybe get one more? Then the ratio is 16 town to 5 mafia.
bo_sox48 (5202 DMod(G))
18 Dec 14 UTC
At this point, I am expecting at least one or two dropouts, and if not, we have alternates. That's why I'm capping it at 20. We can reopen it again in January. For now, let's just keep this thread bumped periodically so that we have it (or we can just repost then).
ALEXTREME333 (0 DX)
18 Dec 14 UTC
There's a format of the game designed for bigger crowds where there are 2 mafia families instead of 1. They work to take out the town and the other family. In case someone wanted to switch it up.
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)
18 Dec 14 UTC
So then continue with signups and number 21 and above are the alternates?

Could always use Mafia Traitors to balance things a bit.

No, usually I complain on the rare occasions that I have to.
Fluminator (1500 D)
18 Dec 14 UTC
That would be a good theme. And then on one random day all the players who died come back as zombie hounds who can only post messages with the letter z. Then next day phase they are dead again.
o btw bo pls pls pls crack down on deadposting

i was a pussy about it in m1 and i regret the precedent that set

Boko Haram in Nigeria

A similar number of casualties to catastrophic terrorist events like 9/11 and yet this has been reduced to a sentence on the scrolling text at the bottom of your TV screen. Funny how some lives are less important than others.

Inspired by Sh@dow's thread about comebacks, would anyone like to share links to games where the *opposite* happened? That is, where a power was on 16 or 17 SCs, a move away from a solo.... and then they horribly, tragicomically ballsed it up?

Gunboaters how do you signal allies?
The one move support arrow is obvious. I also give fake supports for my own units to point allies down a path. (Of course this assumes our allies open and read the expanded detail maps. And allies may need to go a couple maps back to get the whole story.) What do you do?
