Hi I am new, quick question
I am starting a game with some friends, can you play with less than 7 people? If so, is anything different compared to a full game? Thanks :-)

Pacific Northwest FTF
I've only ever played FTF with people who don't really care about the game and want to be done after a year, and I always feel a twinge of jealousy when I sew those people having fun playing in real life on that crappy coast across the country. This is just a post to see who might be interested in getting something set up on this side of the country. I'm in the Seattle area.

Conundrum
So the people who make the schedules at my school are kinda dumb. I signed up for both AP Micro/Macroeconomics and AP European History. Only one class of each is being offered. And they happen to be the same hour. So I need to drop one and pick up some other course. I really don't know, so what (preferably AP) course would you suggest for me to take instead of AP Micro/Macroeconomics (because there's no chance I'll drop Euro)?

"The Puppet Master" is a character in Ghost in the Shell, for those wondering. Which is what I'd like the theme to be. I believe that's the connection Fluminator was making.

While I'm happy to flavor the deaths/narratives/characters, again, the roles will be kept to a minimum.
Fluminator (1500 D)

My profile says "Rank: Pro" so if I was you, you wouldn't realize quite yet.
(It's actually a little funny I'm apparently a pro since I only play like one game every couple months here, and I've never solo'd yet. Stinking people wanting draws)
Fluminator (1500 D)
06 Aug 15 UTC
Maybe I'm secretly Valis for knowing he wanted to do "Ghost in the Shell"

Maybe the "2501" in my username comes directly from the 1995 movie Ghost In The Shell

Fluminator (1500 D)
06 Aug 15 UTC
Nope, 11 pages is too long. How do you guys even have a sign-up thread be 11 pages long? You could have had a mini mafia game in here in that time.
wjessop (100 DX)
06 Aug 15 UTC
Or you could have had another full mafia game, Flum ;)
Fluminator (1500 D)

Sure. I'm hijacking this thread for my own mafia sign up.
It involves swords and knives.
You may or may not survive.

I knew the number sounded familiar when I watched Ghost in the Shell, and I immediately came back to this thread after watching it. How in the hell did I not make that connection, Valis?

Some roles I'm thinking about having in my game.

Titanic: When the person gets lynched, everyone on the wagon goes down with him.

Mastermind: Mafia has an extra teammate who is secretly a serial killer. They don't know who it is. Serial Killer can't kill the mafia.

Aggressive Survivor: Must constantly be yelling and picking fights with players at every opportunity. Wins if can get 1 person to ragequit the game. Force Modkilled if he ever posts something that isn't riddled with offensive language.

Inspiring Cult Master: Inspires his first target to make his own Cult. Has to get recruited into that Cult, somehow get the first Cult Master killed off and get the Cult to win in order to win the game.

+1 Whore: Can +1 a player's post after he is dead for every +1 he gives to the moderator.

Diplomat: If there are ever 7 players alive in the game, he can force everyone into a diplomacy game where the first person eliminated is the lynch of the day.

We should play with a fool.
Fluminator (1500 D)
07 Aug 15 UTC
Maybe a cult leader fool. So the rest of the cult have to stop their leader from trying to get himself killed.
Or a circus crew where you have a bunch of fools and they only win if all of them get lynched. They lose if any of them die through other means.
LittleItaly (355 D)

Getting Germany every single game
Hi everybody, I'd like to ask if anyone has experience with an account getting a certain country every single game. One of my friends who I've played in several games against has drawn Germany out of the pot every single time. We're onto the fifth time out of 5 games he's gotten Germany.

I'd put it up to chance but we've reached 5 sigma and are on our way to 6. Thoughts?
