Don't give out any RL data, give them the stuff on GH the player.
NATIONALITY: .orgah
STARTED PLAYING MAFIA (YEAR): [insert year]
HAVE PLAYED MAFIA ON THE FOLLOWING SITES: the .org. ??????
BIO: Narrator of the Pirate Mafia series, 100% failure/success rate when attempting to lead a town (depends how you see it), host of the Rock/Paper/Scissors championships, erm… what else can one say?
Edit: if you give us your life story (as a player/GM I mean) I can pirate-talkify it for you.
*achieved the rank of general
"established a tradition of serial killers leading towns and then dying late game explicitly because of it"
*likes to quote Roman classics*
'mon, let's make a list. Hmm… how bad is he as a moderator? :clown:
NATIONALITY: Pirate
STARTED PLAYING MAFIA (YEAR): '06, though we're not sure which century.
HAVE PLAYED MAFIA ON THE FOLLOWING SITES: The .Org
BIO:
GeneralHankerchief, is he even still around? Apparently so. As the founding member of mafia at the .org, he is known affectionately around those parts as being "over the hill", "decrepit", "desiccated", and "dirt's grandpappy". And yet he is so devoted to that backwater site that no one ever visits that he's never even ventured out to play mafia on another site. He's the grizzled old timer who sits in a rocking chair on the porch every day telling 70 year olds to git off his lawn. He's been through at least seven depressions and four world wars, and affectionately refers to Kaiser Wilhelm I as "that spry young Prussian boy". Please be advised that he may show up dressed like a pirate, wearing an onion on his belt, and that for him, this is perfectly normal. During this event, he may mutter things like "where am I?" or "who in the hell are you people?", and this will demonstrate that, even in his twilight years, he's still the sharpest bulb in our particular knife shed. He may talk about the "good old days", before there were any "roles" like cops added to these games, having to hunt using only wits alone, and how people used to play without alignment reveals, and if they were mafia, they had to write their own murder narrations or else it didn't count. And believe it or not, that's completely true, we had a team of archaeologists look into it. Please handle with care, as he is extremely fragile and we would like his raggedy old bones returned to us in some semblance of being intact, and he definitely has the osteoporosis.
-edit- will add to this as I think of more.
BIO:
If I actually know what's going on I might not suck.
BIO:
Living (for now) proof that age doesn't necessarily equal wisdom.
BIO:
Has spent nearly ten years exclusively in one mafia community. Doesn't notice the smell anymore.
BIO:
Is thoroughly unimpressed with everyone else's stories of how they singlehandedly carried [floundering faction] to victory in scenarios X, Y, and Z. Not because he's done better, just because he doesn't care.
BIO:
Oh, everybody else is doing pithy, short bios too? Cool, cool.
BIO:
GeneralHankerchief: Old and delusional, until he isn't.

Heh, I'm ancient and GH remembers entire eras of mafia "Before Pizzaguy". Ages of history and pages of threads and years that went by where there was some goddamned peace and quiet.

Your representative's Championship game started just a few hours ago: http://www.mafiauniverse.com/forums/...a-Championship
I want to talk about and spectate the game - what do I do?
If you wish to actively spectate and show support for your representative, then there are two ways of doing this.
1) There will be a private spectator thread on the site for each game that you may request access to. Simply register on the site and PM the user "Thingyman", and I will add you. Feel free to spectate games that your representative isn't in as well. These threads are published after the game completes.
2) We have a spectator chat on Skype, with currently more than 200 people in it. It's very active and fun, I highly suggest you join it if you have Skype. It's way more active than the on-site ones. Just add me: thingyman.
None of these two chats/threads will be spoiled!
Finally, we kindly ask that you refrain from commenting too much on the games in public on this forum, as the other representatives will easily be able to find and read through this (as has happened in the past). I can't control what you do here, but out of respect for the integrity of this Championship, it's best if you don't discuss your reads on your representative or the other players or make comments that could potentially indicate your reads. I.e. even something like "oh man, our representative is totally being his usual self right now" is not good. Speaking very generally about what has happened so far in the game (so as to update your fellow community members) without commenting on it is fine though.
I hope this doesn't seem too strict to you guys, but the game can become very uncomfortable (and unfair) if there is discussion about it outside of the game thread. If you want to have your own private spectator chat, that is of course also totally fine and I even encourage it (I'd love to be added if you make one of these) :)
I wish your representative and your community all the best of luck for this season! :)
Congrats to gh for a well earned victory!
So we let him off the hook here so that he can go and play with other people?
Visor and I made the wild card game, the ride isn't over yet. :croc:
Wildcard game is stacked
Should be interesting
It can't be that stacked if a couple of schlubbs from our neck of the woods made it in.
I had some respect for this tournament, once. Then Zack and I both made it to the finals. Then Visor and GH made it past the first round.
Tsk tsk tsk. Don't these people realize we're casual mafia players, not pros like the more elite forums across the world?
Maybe that's the problem, the amateurs are making stoopid moves the elites don't expect. :clown:
Good job GH and Visor!
Apparently the jury is looking for someone who can post relevant gifs, I just pander to my audience.
If it's all about posting cat .gifs, then I should hasten my incorporation into these games.
I suppose i should congratulate visor sometime then. I'll put it on my schedule.Quote:
