My guess is that it it’s probably hard to jump in a big game mid stream. It’s probably true.

No joke though, if some of the people who initially signed up don’t confirm that they are in I’m happy to give you a space. It’s likely there will be one, or 5.

I’ve completely lost track of whether or not I signed up for this.  
If I have, then I confirm.  
If I haven’t then never mind.

There should be a New Second Official sign-up list for those who have already signed up in the official sign-up list. And then one after that. Eventually everyone who wants to play will have room through sheer attrition if we have enough sign-up lists. Indeed, if this were to go on long enough, eventually it might come down to one player (the “winner”), and there would be no need for the game. Sign-up list Mafia!

Seconded. I am looking forward to meeting some of the players whose names are oft-repeated legends of Mafia lore. One of my life goals is to be an Oft-Repeated Legend of Mafia Lore. Got a ways to go.

There are lots of names I recognize. Some I don’t though.

I don’t know most of ya. I’m not even 100% sure I know what this game is all about. Does that disqualify me?

Oh, and I think that the game is fully finished. We are writing role pms and doing final checks and fully expect the game to start shortly after the new year. There will be PMs and a new thread.

And they’ll randomize the list to determine who will be assigned pro- and anti-town roles.

Wait, I should have phrased that differently, shouldn’t I’ve?
