[QUOTE=USCDiver] Are any of the veterans out there following this thread? How many of you are going to be interested in Cecilvania? [/QUOTE] /in! This summer is my prime Mafia playing time, before I have to get busy again… So i’m gonna milk it for all its worth! ---

Do I qualify as a vet? If so I wouldn’t mind trying Cecilvania (finished my Masters; more time for Mafia 🙂 ) ---

I’d like to play in Cecilvania. I know I only have one game under my belt, but I’d be willing to bet my prior game knowledge matches or surpasses a lot of people with more games played. (What can I say, I was bored at work and reading a finished game of mafia was a great way to kill a couple days.) ---

We could always do a quick game of LolCats again while we wait for the two games to end… 😃 ---

Hmmm… I can’t do mafia until next sunday at earliest, two/three weeks from now at latest. So if it starts late enough, I’m in. Otherwise, I’ll wait for the bus to come around again. Oh, and I’d kind of like to mod a game. It doesn’t look to hard, as long as I have a couple of months without heavy work (and starting mid-June, I will). I have a really cool idea too–it’s kind of like consipracy, except that the questions are in which side gets which power roles. And the town is a town of mafians with townies trying to take back the city. (unfortunalty, it sounds like that was stolen by batman…ah well) Not finished with it yet, but I’d like to try it. How much expirience does one have to have to mod? ---

…That’s the mafia bus. and I meant Cecilvania. With Shadow Facts Stamp of Approval! I don’t think I’m newbish enough to play the other–that, and I think Conspiracy was absolutly brilliant, and I’d love to play something like it. So…yeah. ---

For those that are worried they might not be able to get on the Cecilvania train, there’s always my game on the other board too! Don’t forget about me, please. 😃 ---

My [game is posted](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=467356). Anyone who specifically requested to play in this thread after I announced it has a spot reserved. Anyone else who would like to play can sign up for the lottery in the new thread. Happy Killing! ---

Thanks for stepping up, **CoG888** , my schedule has been pretty hectic lately and frankly I forgot about running the game. 🙂 ---

[QUOTE=pedescribe] How much expirience does one have to have to mod? [/QUOTE] You don’t need experience; you just have to be organized. Counting votes is harder than it looks. I consistently made mistakes until I automated the process with a matlab script. Also, you should have someone else look at your game setup. More scrutiny is good for finding game-breaking or otherwise weak portions of the game setup. You won’t find everything, but more consideration will be worth it. ---

I am quite happy to sub into Cecilvania if needs be. It means I get a chance to last longer than my usual first couple of days before being knocked off by scum. ---

FTR, I’m absolutely down for the Cecilvania game. Maybe **storyteller** and I can actually be on the same side for once (not counting the brief stint as crew in the Pirates game), otherwise we always have our little showdown, it seems. 😉 ---

Just a brief announcement; I expect to get Cecilvania started early next week (I’m out of town at the moment). (Cross posted in the Doperville game thread) ---

Right now I have a Mafia scheduling conflict. Cecilvania is about to start, Atarus’s game on the offsite boards is about to start, and I was asked to join a game on another board where I played for about 2½ years. And that’s coming up to the starting gun. Can I manage three games of Mafia at once? Plus three running D&D games and another I’m still building the character for? Can I hell. Consequently (because I’m already committed to this other game) I’ll have to sit out of one or the other of Cecilvania or Atarus’s game - unless I get killed out of one game PDQ. ---

> [@USCDriver](#): > > Just a brief announcement; I expect to get Cecilvania started early next week (I’m out of town at the moment). > > (Cross posted in the Doperville game thread) Dangit! Alright, if you had me on the list, take me off, I don’t want to be tempted at this point. ---

[QUOTE=RoOsh] Weren’t you guys both Town in the FireFly Game? Though in that one you STILL had a Showdown… After you had a showdown with Me Day 1. (-\_-) [/QUOTE] You know, you’re right. I just don’t remember much about that game 'cause it was a while ago and I was killed fairly early, at least compared to my normal longevity, and I quit following soon after I was killed when I stopped playing for a while. Of course, I’d really love to get to play with him as scum some time. I could imagine us having that sort of showdown for Days and just completely leading the town around by the nose, and when one of us finally got lynched, the other would probably be scott-free.
