Mafia Hosting Queue 6.0 | Requests to Host Games

[GeneralHankerchief]

Thanks to Silver Rusher, Sasaki, Andres, Seamus, Sigurd, and Askthepizzaguy for their previous iterations of this queue.

Please read this first!

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

As per discussion in this thread, these are the current number of games allowed to run at one time (though some leeway is allowed - i.e. a host may begin signups for his or her game if the currently running game is in its final phase or two:

Regular games (10 or more players at the outset of the game)

• One at a time.

Mini games (3-9 players at the outset of the game)

• No queue required, but mini games should conclude within 120 hours of game start

Speed Mafia (number of players will vary)

• No queue required, but exercise good judgment when creating one.
• Phases limited to a maximum of 30 minutes

Non-Mafia games

• Consult with the moderator before setting one up, but I will usually have no objections. Not subject to the queue.

tl;dr if it's a mafia game for 10 or more people, it goes in the queue. Otherwise it doesn't.
Restriction subject to change based on current activity levels.
See Gameroom rules and reference for additional information.

In your request, please note the following:
Name of host - Name of game (if known)
ex. GeneralHankerchief - Pirate Ship Mafia III

• You cannot request a new slot of same game size in the calendar until a previous game of yours with the same game size has reached concluded status.
• Liaising with other hosts if you need additional time/want to trade slots etc is permitted in this thread.

Visorslash - Rise of the Snake Cult

Is that a reference to what I'm thinking?

[Visor]

Is that a reference to what I'm thinking?

It might be, but I don't know what you think you know I'm referencing.

[El Barto]

Put me in as someone who can host whenever, I have a couple low-maintenance setups that can get quite complex and can start with a couple days' notice, and I have one or two that are more elaborate and would require a ‘real’ booking.

[GeneralHankerchief]

I'll slot you in behind Visor for now. If somebody wants to leap you, or if somebody needs you to leap them, that can be negotiated in this thread at the particular time.

[seireikhaan]

Ya, I'll host one.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Whenever you're ready, @Zack.

[Zack]

I'm in the middle of hosting a game on CFC right now, so skip me for the time being.

[GeneralHankerchief]

@Visorslash?

[El Barto]

If he's not available I have a game ready to host, can start within 24-48 hours of finishing signups.

[seireikhaan]

I can also get my game up and signups going within 72 hours if the need arises.

[El Barto]

If such be the case then I be votin' fer mutiny!

[Visor]

I can host, but there seems to be quite some interest so I'll pass to whoever is next in line.

I recently finished hosting a 30 player game and playing quite a bit, so I'm taking a bit of a break.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Alright Barto, looks like you're up. Feel free to start the signups whenever.

[GeneralHankerchief]

khaan has negotiated a jump in line ahead of El Barto in return for 10 gold once/if Pirate Ship IV starts, he'll be starting signups within the next couple of days.

[Beskar]

Out of curiosity, who would be interested in a Diplomacy game?

It would be seven players and it generally only runs for 16-20 rounds.

[GeneralHankerchief]

I'd be down for sure.

[Zack]

I'd play. Kennigit I know would be interested.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Tentatively putting myself on the list to host sometime in the New Year.

GeneralHankerchief - Polandball Mafia

[El Barto]

Yuo is of owing ten doubloons if yuo is of wanting to host such game in spot of mine!

[GeneralHankerchief]

@Zack is next in line to host, but I take it from his recent posts on this site that his RL schedule is too busy until around the new year. @Visorslash, are you ready?

[Zack]

Go ahead and move me to the end of the queue.

Well no, but I always design my games after signups finish and before I open the thread later that day so.... (okay thats only 90% true)

I have some things I've always wanted to test out, no idea how many players I will get either. If you're willing to go with something a bit experimental I'll throw it together ASAP and opens signups now.

Indeed, you open the thread on a different day.

[GeneralHankerchief]

I certainly would be fine with experimental, especially since you're up front about it. Feel free to start signups at your convenience.

Sign-up thread is up.

[Zain]

An idea is bumping around in my head, a non-mafia PvPvE game for the imagination. Refer to The Mansion which I hosted years back, I wish to make another of a similar style.

Thoughts? Permissions? Recommendations on recruitment/signups?

Would love a partner to help me gather players from various forums, as I am not around. As well as someone to bounce ideas off of and help me develop the plot/game mechanics/etc.

Thanks all!

[Myrddraal]

I missed out on the original Mansion game, and would definitely play such a game if you wanted to host another.
