I hereby declare my eligibility for the NBA draft… whoops- I mean I’m in for Mafia. ---

I’m in too. I’ve played the Werewolf version but not Mafia. ---

I’d like to post a correction. The cowardly reporter is told if someone is out, not the Policeman. The Policeman is told exactly if the person is or is not Mafia. Otherwise, the same principle of using evidence applies. ---

I’m in. I’ve played this as “Werewolf” on ifMUD, and “McCarthy” on IRC. ---

Aslan found and nearly scared me via AIM (I didn’t know who he was, I swear), so sure. I don’t precisely understand but I’ll spend a little time checking out other games and obeying instructions and I should get it down mediocrely. 🙂 AIM: redperilcuon, Mail: [doomtrout@hotmail.com](mailto:doomtrout@hotmail.com) ---

We don’t have any werewolves, but you have one Werebear! And I’ll tell people now, SK stands for SaberKitty, but it also stands for Serial Killer. _bear runs away from the angry kitty with the blue text_ And if you want to see some games in action, go to [http://www.mafiascum.net/](http://www.mafiascum.net/) and select FORUMS at the bottom of the page. There’s also a link for role descriptions at the bottom of the same page as well. ---

Aesiron has joined in IM. We now have 30, so no more players are allowed. Thanks to everybody who signed up! I’ll probably have all the emails and everything else set up in an hour or so. ---

Oops, still need another player. I was counting **Werebear** as another player. ---

[color=blue]raaaaar! _chases silly bear_ we start when we all have our roles, have confirmed that we recieved and understand them, have sent in night choices, and when we know what happened night one -SK (who didn’t kill anyone… yet 🙂 ) ---

I hope the game won’t suffer due to inactivity but I’d say it’s very likely here. ---
