I‘ve been told that several people are planning to host games, so to avoid any problems like people cutting into each other‘s game signups and other things we may need a schedule of games.
For anyone who plans to host a game, you can either write in this thread for what month/day you‘re planning a game or edit it in the schedule yourself if you can.
Note that there‘s no limit to how many games can be had per month, but try not to have 2 games running at the same time.
Sign-ups!
To everyone who usually plays MG or those that don‘t want to miss signups, we‘re testing a new way to alert everyone to a new game instead of mass tags before each game.
All you have to do is go to>>this thread<<and press Watch on the top corner of the thread. I or a host will post there and notify everyone like this whenever a new game starts.
While hosting overall isn't necessarily hard, it's very easy to mess things up as we have seen plenty of times already. This naturally happens more often with newer hosts.
In order to get these new hosts familiar with how the game works behind the scenes and make it a smoother experience for everyone (no one wants a cancelled game!), we are establishing these sets of rules that follow the methods that have been used in the last 50 games:
-If it's your first time hosting, it's MANDATORY to have the help of someone that has hosted before. As long as they aren't banned, it doesn't matter if this person hosted twenty times or just once. This experienced host will be the "Main Host", while the new one assumes the role of "co-host".
-Tasks will be split in a rather equal manner so that the Main Host can keep things in check while the Co-host gets hands-on experience to learn properly.
-The Main Host has the final say when it comes to decisions (ideally, this won't need to be enforced heavily, it's mostly to avoid possible issues).
Once the game is over, the co-host can host on their own and even take the role of "experienced host" for a new host in need!
So cute
If the game starts at the end of the 22nd my time (UTC+2), then I think I can find enough time to catch up and post 5 times on the 23rd. That will be the limit of my participation for Day 1 though ^^
I wouldn't mind starting the 22nd at all, its even better for me schedule-wise.
Only chose the 21st initially cause I thought it would be better for most so if theres no objections we could start on Saturday instead of Friday.

Well, Day 1 is usually pretty random anyway so not being active at that time is not that big of a deal. If you can play comfortably from Day 2 onwards then all should be good.
Of course theres what Gry said too, if you cannot be active through the following week and have to force yourself to play then its better to not force it.
Tomorrow I'll be sending confirmation pms so will add you aswell in case you feel like taking a spot o/
Change of plans, I may be traveling long distance soon, for a well deserved holiday, may or may not happen in the middle of the game.
But mafia takes priority over anything else, so I don't care I will still spam the hell out of the thread, from the airport, while recovering and while catching up with my mom that I didn't see for 2 years! Try to get me killed mafia! I will drop my flight if I have to!

Dont force it too much, maybe you can take this as a way to play more chill. Enjoy your stance with your mom and come bite some necks when you are free

Im extending the sign ups to the last day, sadly theres quite the number of drop outs
So anyone that might be thinking of joining would be extra-welcome.
Back in the panda days, it was so easy to have a 24 player game, too late for this game but we need to invite new players from other threads to boost the ranks. First rule of mafia game is tell everybody about it!
