Pirateship Mafia Fan thread ^_^

**boudica** · 01-02-2009, 00:04

I understand that the thread has been locked but after playing mafia for the first time and being a massive fan of low to nil-budget games :D I thought I'd start a fan thread.

Don't you boys ever tidy your rooms? I'm not sure if General Hankerchief maybe posted a list of 'confirmed' players rather than sign ups but this is what I tallied from the locked thread:

Signed up (11/50):
Reenk Roink (courteously in)
seirei "I still can't get over those lost 3 minutes" khaan
Sigurd Fafnesbane (don't anger him, he's a viking AND an AM)
YLC (wonders what those letters used to stand for) ~ ABsent?
Seamus "I graciously let GH steal half of my Capo ideas" Fermanagh
glyphz (Reenk's protege)
Rythmic (halfhearted pirate)
pever "I am one of the few who can truthfully state I actually bothered to read the rules" green – OUT!
Andres (probably wants all that referral treasure)
shlin28 (still operating off his BR3 high)
Aries "I can't be bothered to read the rules of the game I signed up for" 777777

Johnhughthom
Kraven88
Jolt

Quintus J

Tiberius of the Drake

which makes 24. :)

..ish

I think it's weird to post a game (although I'm sure there may be extenuating circumstances) in November, and then postpone it to May.. would General Handerchief be willing to pass on the administrators reins? I don't want to wait til may

If GH is agreeable, anyone else fancy a shot at GMing it?

It probably got locked because there weren't enough signups and it was designed to be a huge game. It's a shame, because I tried to do a huge game too but there weren't enough people in it, and it ended up only being 29.

Hmm... I'm pretty sure I signed up, too. There tend to be more players when people are less busy in the Summer. Perhaps that's why GH is waiting until May.

Though I enjoy the rise of the new players, I also miss the old faces.
It'll be good if we can all play together again.

Im eagerly waiting for Pirate Ship to start

I had also signed up. I believe he simply quit adding names at a fairly early point in the process.

In the meantime I have some interesting things cooking in my kitchen...

Folks, this game is my baby and I fully intend to see it through. You can count on that.

That said, it didn't look like we were getting 50, so out of courtesy to other hosts (since I was taking up a spot in the queue) I decided to postpone things until May. By then, it'll have been long enough where we can get a new group of players.

Also, had things started right when I posted the game, I would have been in deep trouble since I wouldn't have been able to devote much time to the game (due to real life), which I hadn't forseen before that. The mid-May start date was designed so that I'd have plenty of free time to devote to making sure that Pirate Ship Mafia is what it deserves to be.
