Operation Michael Mafia sign-ups

After the Russians were out of World War I, the Germans were able to begin offensives on the Western Front, with the hopes of pushing England off the continent and forcing France to surrender. Eventually, the efforts failed as the Americans joined the army while the Germans had no new allies. This mafia will be split into two halves. In the first mafia, told from the perspective of the Allies, the roles will be fairly standard and will include vanilla. In the second mafia, told from the perspective of the Central Powers, the roles will be fairly berzerk and will be non-vanilla. This second one is recommended for more experienced players only and there are no promises it will be fair or balanced. Nobody can join both mafias, but may be able to replace if dead in the other game. Sign-up for which one you want below. There are no maximum or minimum players, but I'm hoping the two will be fairly even in terms of numbers.

Allies (vanilla) sign-up
  1. madmitch
  2. djelebert
  3. Loose Canon
  4. betiko
Central Powers (experimental) sign-up
  1. aage
  2. strike wolf
  3. Skoffin
  4. Pikanchion
Either sign-up
  1. dakky21
  2. DDS
  3. ZaBeast
  4. BuJaber
  5. Ragian

Rules: Standard Rules apply, with a few additions. Every player has a team objective and a Token objective. The token objective upon completion will give points in the Great War site event (you will actually get a token prize). Standard Rules:
Spoiler
1.The moderator is always right. Do not try and argue with them. However we are all human and we all make mistakes. The moderator will try and fix any mistake he or she may have made.

2. Do not edit/delete previous posts. Whatever you say goes into historical record.

3. You are allowed to quote your PM but be advised that I always bastard-mod in this way so you have greater chance of ruining things (by this I mean I write each role PM different with different wordings).

4. The game will not be discussed outside this thread, unless your role specifically says you can.

5. All ‘votes’ and ‘unvotes’ must be in bold. If they are not, they will not be tallied. (I.E. Vote: Mandy). You must first unvote and then vote to change your vote from someone. Mods may change this according to their wishes.

6. Lynching requires a majority of the town vote, once the majority has been reached any unvotes will not be counted. The majority is half the player's alive +1.

7. You may vote ‘no lynch’ to end the day without a death.

8. Days will start with a limit of 7 real-time days, but will be extended on a whim or by request.

9. Nights are as short as possible. I will wait 24 hours, then send a PM advising of 24 hours remaining. The only exception is on weekends (since site activity is low). Weekends only count as half time (so Saturday/Sunday is counted as only 24 hours).

10. Once your death scene has been posted, it's over for you. You can no longer post anything related to the game. Whining is alright, **Voices from beyond the grave** are alright, as long as nothing of substance is revealed. This means you can post something like "Damn you mafia!" or "Oh well. Go town!" but you cannot post and add to the discussion. This is a serious offence.

11. Be attentive and active in the game. You will be replaced if you don't post. If something prevents you to participate for a long period of time, announce it here or via PM. Help everyone's enjoyment of the game by being active and sending your actions promptly. A post at least every 48 hours is expected.

12. You cannot talk at night.

13. If you have any questions or doubts, send a private message to the moderator and ask for help. It would be much worse to remain unsure about your role, mafia rules, whatever than to ask the moderator and then understand

14. Have Fun!
When you sign up, make sure to choose which game you want to play in, and make sure you read and acknowledge rule #11 (the most important rule).

Have no fear. After a week, I'm going to heavily promote it. Hopefully we should get some new people playing. It might only be 7-10 player games, but those are easier to balance anyway.

If you could wait until the Easter event is over (Easter event ends April 4th, so April 5th therefore) I could headline this and it wouldn't compete with other headlines. So, if you could plan your promotions to start then?

I'd like to join the experimental one. I can join the vanilla instead if stuck, but just rig the random role generator so I don't end up vanilla :lol:

Based on this comment, mitch I've added you to the Allies play.

I think Dukasaur is correct. The Monday after Easter I will post this Global and give it a marketing push, then the following Monday we will start.

It's not really fair to move mitch to the game which will probably never start, but start the experimental one with Skoffin in it. Either start both or don't start either. Or put mitch as well in this one, Skoff is free to quit it... Just saying. I don't like Mitch play either but it's not fair what we're doing here.

Are War Medals actually going to be given out as prizes? The above only says we'll be given tokens as a prize.
Please clarify so I can decide to sign up or not.

Thanks.

Yes, the war medals are the tokens I mean.

I just found everyone also gets a Zeppelin token for participating.

The Zeppelin token has never been used for anything yet, so it's unknown what it will be good for.

If we can get 3 players that would be perfect for a 7p allies and 9p no-vanilla game.

Ragian, I'm probably going to move you to the vanilla game since I think you have enough patience and are kind enough. Maybe you too Bujaber depending on who else we get in the last couple of days.
