I hate you Ender, but fine _sigh_ I’ll play. Given the current game on Giraffe, I almost wanted to stop playing mafia 🙂 ---

> [@storyteller0910](#): > > Given this, it would be _terrific_ if we could find three more and get to 24. I’ll hold open sign-ups for another 24 hours, and if we make it to 24, great, and if not, I’ll make a few adjustments. Since I doubt we’ll make it much past 24, I’ll say that’s the upper limit unless there’s a crazy rush of interest. Just call me crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaazy Ender! :moustache: You can’t see it, but that’s quite a distinguished smilie I’ve posted. ---

OK, so I think we’re at 25 and possibly 26, if Lightfoot’s post indicated a sign up. I can work with 26. I’ll post rules tomorrow and send out roles somewhat thereafter. ---

Start with [this post](http://www.giraffeboards.com/showthread.php?p=900630#post900630), and look for basically every post made by \*\*Askthepizzaguy \*\*for the next several Days. “We’ve decided to find it charming” ---

I left the Mod a pm, and as I’ve not gotten a response, I’m also posting here. I am in the process of moving. As in, spent last night at me new place, and forgot my shower curtain at my old place moving. As in, I have no Internet at my new place yet, had to use my cell phone charger to charge my kindle keyboard e-reader, to use the e-reader to find how to program my universal remote on my old school CRT tube TV, to change the channel on the TV to 3 to use my digital to analog converter box, to see the weather report that Atlanta will get an inch of snow or less tonight. ((Trust me, Atlantans will stock pile milk eggs and bread tonight - we suck at driving, and add ice or even one inch of snow, and we shut down…for a week\*)) That to say I will be touch and go for the next IRL week or so, will post where I can. thankfully the kindle has free 3G. Tell me that wasn’t a mistake on amazon’s part. \*Mid-February 2010, Atlanta was shut down for a week over ice and not even 2 inches of snow. I wish I was joking. All I had for two days was Beer and fluffernutter sandwiches.
