I’ve always said the best way to learn how to play is to play. Watching does that too, but it’s not as fun.  
ETA: Oh yeah, and allow me to remind everyone there is now a mafia wiki that is specific to us: [http://wiki.flyingcowofdoom.com/mafiaWiki/Main\_Page](http://wiki.flyingcowofdoom.com/mafiaWiki/Main_Page)

So feel free to go there and make your personal article page and edit as you see fit. 🙂

Just wanted to say hi to everyone. I will be watching with interest since I won’t have time to play in another game until, who knows when.

This one is going to be awesome though, hawk has some great stuff going on.

Well, I guess you guys are right, if I changed my style enough to not be taken for scum I think I’d get lynched for being scum. At least I have a ready made excuse for making anti-town suggestions when I finally get to play scum.

I want to play, but I am producing/directing a play that opens one week from tomorrow, so my participation in the first week would be limited (although not zero). If that’s OK, then I’m in. If that’s a problem, feel free to put me on the sub list. I leave it up to your discretion, **Hawkeye**.

If my memory serves me well, Rapier isn’t so much a newbie as he is a Gastard. I could be wrong though.
