Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
Glad to have you all aboard.
Everyone: PLEASE go and recruit some more folks. We have a nice number now, but the game design for the 5 family version would need 60+, so I'd love triple our current numbers. I have these visions of a game starting slow for 1-2 nights but then featuring 15 attempted murders -- I think it'd be a wild challenge.

Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
Sounds bloated, unwieldy, & completely OTT.
New (ish) to the org, and just found these - they look amusing.

I received several calls to join. I then went to a Chinese restaurant last night and when I opened the fortune cookie it had Seamus' name followed by the word 'join'. I think prudence dictates I not offend the Will of Heaven.
I'll join.

OK, after some thought I'll try this one more time.
After all, you guys will need someone to lynch in the first round.

Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
After each "night" phase of the game, all the players get to vote on who they think is a murderer. The person with the most votes is lynched/killed.
Take a look at a couple of the completed games, and you'll see exactly how it works.
Mmm, lotsa recruits. This game is lookin' good...

Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
Sorry - my post was ambiguous owing to lazy grammar. I'm new to the org, not the games.
They are old, far far older than we'll ever know....
Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
Aye, that was quite clear ... nothing wrong with the grammar
Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
According to wiki,
Mafia was created by Dimma Davidoff at the Psychological Department of Moscow State University, in spring of 1986, and the first players were playing in classrooms, dorms and summer camps of Moscow University. The game then became popular in other Soviet colleges and schools and in 1990s; it started crossing borders, first in Europe (Hungary, Poland, England, Norway) then the United States; now it is played virtually everywhere.
Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)

Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
Intriguing, and thank you for shattering my carefully crafted air of mystery.
Now, what did they call it? It surely can't have been Mafia back then & there.
Show me that answer for your Starter for 10.....
Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
While we have enough players for the 3-family version of the game -- and thanks for your support -- we still lack the 60+ needed for the 5-family free for all. PLEASE try to recruit a few more folks -- all the new names here so far are a pleasure to see.

Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
Here's a history of Mafia and Mafia-like games, that dates them back before Davidoff. FYI, Davidoff remembers a game called "Ubiitca" (Murderer), which is similar.
Re: Capo de Tutti Capi (Sign Up Phase)
I was just reading the rules over, and my gosh Seamus Fermanagh you have let yourself in for a lot of work. The amount of pm's you will be receiving daily...tis a credit to you for thinking up such a unique take on mafia.
Also, aside from congratulating the games master, I also wanted to reach my
300th POST!!!!!!!!
Not that this is really significant, but hey, I'm a simple person...
