I think capybara said on the other board that she wanted to play…
I’m not noticing anything, and my name’s bolded.
… all of 'em were masons (however briefly) in one or more of the previous games
I have to admit that I was a bit concerned about the size of this game. M2 had three kills a night which brought the numbers down fairly quickly. I’m not sure if that’s a fantastic way of game size control, but it does make the game more manageable quickly, albeit at the expense of several dead players.
M5 will have 1.5 night kills at the beginning of the game (about half od M2), with the potential for 2.5 if the Psychopath gets activated. Plus - players won’t die enmass and have to wait 4 months to get a shot at playing again. Minus - the game will stay fairly large for quite a while.
I think perhaps M2 suffered from ‘inactive’ players due to the sheer volume of discussion generated by 34 people. If one can’t keep up with the posts, then one can’t contribute. I’d say it might be good for us all to try and keep the number of extraneous postings to a minimum (“Hi, I’m here, reading”). At least in the beginning. Of course there is the problem of starting the game discussion with absolutely no information, so fluff posts become unavoidable but oh well, I’m babbling now and we haven’t even started yet.
Thanks for remembering me, Hal, but I just can’t right now! School and applications and stuff need my attention. I guess I’ll ask to be put on the sub list, though, if there aren’t too many there already. Blaster, please consider me a sub!
(I’m saying, right now, though…NO MORE SPREADSHEET from me!)
Actually, I was planning on simply making my vote count spread sheet public since it won’t have any role information on it. If I’m going to be doing it ANYWAY, why reinvent the wheel?
Um, no, the only previous game I’ve played in was Mafia 2, and I was a Citizen.
I’ve confirmed.
I’d like to play, if there’s still room.
Okay, with MonkeyMensch dropping out (sorry to see you go), there’s one spot left. Unless there’s any rule/role questions, I will begin PMing roles soon after the last spot is filled.

On second thought, before I confirm. Can anyone tell me the true daily time requirment for average participation? I will be on vacation several different times during July and August where I may or may not have internet access.
I feel certain I’ll be able to read through the thread and vote. Maybe make a few content rich posts of my own, but I probably won’t have the time for a detailed analysis each Day.
Should I sub out of this round? I really want to play, and don’t want to wait another 4 months to get a chance, but I don’t want to take up a spot if someone else wants to play more.
Aaaaauuuggghh!
One more spot? Surely someone is around to take it. Where is JSexton this time around? Or Kat? Or Pygmy Rugger? Come on, Pygmy, maybe we can spend two more months pretending to hate one another!
My apologies, I spoke to soon. The player list is filled. 
Anyone still interested in playing, please feel free to still post or PM me. Life is unpredictable and I’m certain subs will be needed.
I will be drafting and sending out PMs presently.
IMO, as long as you can read the thread and make a few content posts per Day, you should be fine. As has been shown from previous games, in fact spending TOO much time can actually be detrimental to the game. Speaking for myself, I’d rather see a player make only a handful of posts in a Day and have them all have good content (or at least an honest attempt at content) as opposed to making a dozen or more posts, and having half of them be fluff, and the rest pretty much random.
IOW, if you were able to follow along in the forbidden thread, you should do fine, I think.
Ok I’m in. I’m working until later tonight. When do you anticipate officially starting? Will it be a Day or Night start?
Who is number 30?
Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease still have room… Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease… Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease…
CRAP.
Well, can I get a spot on the sub list at least? Please? I followed all M3 and M4 and really want to play this one. Curses at that whole no-computer-all-Monday thing.
(c’mon somebody, drop out! No, don’t, that’s just me being selfish.)
I removed MonkeyMensch errantly.
…gotta learn, read e-mail and PMs BEFORE posting. :smack:
Sorry… but you’re on the sub-list, so you’ll probably have a chance.
I’m still confused, but that’s okay. I’ll just wait to see what shakes out.
I would like to point out that **Dragoness **has not had the opportunity to play before.
