Asterix and the Gauls [Concluded]

[Ignoramus]

I am worried though. 2 days of signups and still only 29 people. I can't really trim the game much further without dramatically altering the game.

That's why I scaled back my plans for my game. The original concept required 50-60 players, but it's very difficult to get that many for a mafia game, so I scaled back to about 30. AFAIK, only Capo, Capo II, and Swords in the Moon have achieved 50+.

Summer vacation, I'm in.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Not doing badly so far. I'm going to update my ads with the new list of people.

I think people are more likely to join in a game with someone they recognize.

[El Diablo]

In - although I will be inactive through weekends.

If this is an issue then please remove my name.

Got your PM. Still need somebody?

If not, put me down as a replacement.

[Ignoramus]

I can squeeze you in. Haven't done the allocations yet.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I'll ask to remove all Asterix ads now.

[Ignoramus]

Thanks, ATPG. Thanks also very much for your help in advertising. PM's are being sent out as I speak.

The first few days of the Conference had been relatively uneventful. Not much was discussed as the agenda for the discussions was being prepared. The main business would begin tomorrow. Everyone went off to bed to prepare themselves for a demanding day tomorrow. Suspicion still filled the air, but the calm of the first few days had done something to eases the tensions between the parties.

It is now Night 1.

The deadline for Night 1 orders is Monday, June 18th at 2:00am GMT.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Gosh, I am just so worn out from plotting the destruction of the Romans.

*yawn* I'd better take a nap now.

[A Very Super Market]

Obelix? Hm..... he doesn't plot destruction....

[Jolt]

Aww...I'm not Cicero... *sobs*

[Caius]

Aww...I'm not Cicero... *sobs*

Neither Im Cato.

[Jolt]

Neither Im Cato.

Now we need to be on the look out to see who speaks Latin. :D

[pevergreen]

CountArach studies latin

[Captain Blackadder]

We also need to be on the lookout for anyone speaking gaulish?

I recommend that we do what saskai did in rubicon and tie up the mafia in townie actions. How about we do it in order of signup the first 3 protect the forth the 4,5,6 protect 7 and so on so forth. Anyone who refuses is scummy. The mafia did say that it worked in rubicon and if we do it here then the town has a very good chance of winning.

The only other thing I can say to my fellow townies is that don't go for a mafia victory

Where's Abokasee when you need him?

hmm... i think we need to have 4 people trying to kill the person the three are protecting... we just need to figure out a way to organize it. i was one of the mafia in rubicon it really was a hinderance.

[LittleGrizzly]

The rubicon strategy is definitely a winning one im just not sure how we work it without a leader like sasaki did in rubicon.

I have been contacted by someone to do investigations, these aren't really nessecary for a townie win, but i figure it better to keep myself and my contact busy, ideally a 3rd person intrested in keeping busy can pm me and we can organise protection on a target...

Although if its going to be workable im willing to try it...

That would leave me working with splitpersonality and lord winter, we have no name after us to protect but i figure the best thing would be for us to not reveal our protection target... (so the mafia don't know) as it is under the blackadder system mafia know who's protected...

Lord Winter and Split, any objections of us 3 protecting together ?

If this isn't going to work need to now asap so i can try and setup protection with others.. (ohh and split no forgetting orders and making the rest of us look scummy...)

Edit:

How stupid would it be if i worked out who my partners should be using a completely different game.... very

so umm let me see...

CDF and tratorix... you willing to protect with me ?

[Askthepizzaguy]

I think you just volunteered to be the leader of your people, LittleGrizzly.

You didn't ask for the position, and that tends to make you the ideal candidate in my eyes.

[LittleGrizzly]

Not that I object to it being me... as i can trust me... im just not sure if someone should be given such power because they make the right noises...

I would be willing to do the job for a few rounds if people really think its a good idea.... but i would really prefer some proven innocent to do the job.... even if its only because it gives the mafia less excuse to disobey my orders.... (along with ordaniry townies who disobey orders to make life complicated)

[A Very Super Market]

I refuse to refuse your orders! Hail to the Great Bear of Miniscule Proportions!

I should know, I've followed a few.
