MAFIA 48: SIGN UP THREAD

[Jamiet99uk]

According to some historians, the beginning of the DARK age was the fall if Rome. How appropriate that we play THIS flavour as the 'dark' era of webDiplomacy begins!

Dark era of webDip?

What are you talking about?

The new dark mode for your display.

I prefer mine 96 hours late

##call GM, are we required to read role PMs? Asking for a friend.....

[RagingIke297]

##call GM, how will roles be randed? If it's up for discussion, I would like Dargy to print out all the players and roles, cut them into little strips and put them in two seperate bowls. He will then draw one from each bowl to get what player gets what role.

[ND]

##GM NOTE:

Darg and I use random.org for each of our games. So that is what we will be doing this time. We will send out the role information an hour before the game begins so expect to see them between 5-6PM EST tomorrow.

I second this motion.

##GM NOTE:

Are you required to read your role pm? As a GM I don't like to dictate what players do and don't do. So, that's up to you.

That's a sad time, I was looking forward to seeing Dargs arts and crafts skills post game

I'm very tempted to do this, and then base my first vote off of the result. I'm too lazy though.

I'll do it if you do it, maybe if enough of us commit Darg will consider the possibility of maybe thinking about the idea

I have two IMPORTANT responses to this...
First, could I cut the strips into different shapes, each one appropriate to my understanding of the personality of the player? If so... I might try to persuade ND to try this with me. On the other hand, I am not allowed to play with scissors.
Second, if it were up to ME, I would assign roles by saying things like: "Ummm... xorxes should be Bodyguard... and Percy should NOT be Emperor... and Vapor should be anything BUT VT... But ND is too honorable to use my methodology. :-/

You can 100% use shapes for players based on how you understand their personality, on the condition that mine is a snowflake. You could use anything, exacto knife, laser beams, doesn't have to be scissors. That would be really funny to have a game where the GM assigns the roles to players, but you would need to advertise that bit beforehand

Nice.
What’s the shape of failure?

[dargorygel]

I think that would be a blast... in a wild 'everyone has a role' kind of game. People would have to promise not to have their feelings hurt.

Maybe I will sign up to GM such a game.

We could call it: "THE GM REALLY IS GODLIKE."
