Also, may I suggest setting up a Google group for the mafia discussion? It’s very easy, secure, and much simpler than doing it via email. You can also open it up afterwards so the town can read the mafia’s discussions. ---

[QUOTE=JSexton] Also, may I suggest setting up a Google group for the mafia discussion? It’s very easy, secure, and much simpler than doing it via email. You can also open it up afterwards so the town can read the mafia’s discussions. [/QUOTE] Good idea. I’ve set one up and i’ll send the address to all Werewolves. The forum I used to play this on allowed pms, so it was a bit easier in that regard. Sadly, it’s now defunct, thanks to an overreacting mod (nothing to do with me, though 😉 ). I’ve been jonesing for a good game, so I thought i’d start one up here. I make 15 players so far. That’s enough for a game, but in case anyone else wants to play i’ll leave it open until.. let’s say 6 p.m. my time (that’s in exactly 5 hours from this post, so check the time stamp to work it out). Players so far; **Richard Parker Menocchio Rubystreak Ogre Miller Enginerd jsgoddess hocow Kat Rysto sturmhauke JSexton Suburban Plankton ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies MadTheSwine** ---

I’ll stick in some extra roles so we don’t have just hordes of basic Townspeople and Werewolves. Once i’ve emailed everyone i’ll start things off here. ---

Woohoo! How do you plan to address the issue of keeping non-players from posting in the game thread? On other boards, that’s accomplished by giving the narrator moderator powers for that thread, but that’s obviously not feasible here. Game integrity is fairly important, as it ruins games when spectators chime in and say “JSexton is obviously lying! Look, back on page 3 he said this, and on page 17 he said something else!” Is a strongly worded post from you enough? Will the SDMB moderators take offense? ---

Hmm. I suppose it depends on whether posting in here to upset the game counts as being a jerk or not, which would probably incur a polite unofficial warning. I don’t think there’ll be that much of a problem, though. Anyone interested enough in the game to be following it along probably isn’t going be evil enough to try and ruin it. 😉 ---
