Then there is National Retail Worker's Nightmare Day.

Ugh, don't remind me.

OK people my game is coming up but I currently don't have a working CPU and it likely won't be able to have one this month.
Now I have my Wii and can host using that but there are a few drawbacks. I won't be able to quote something for you but I can answer as specific as I can. I have a USB keyboard so the typing will go as fast as possible.

So I am asking the Mafia community do you guys want to wait till the new year with a repaired CPU or do you want to start the game on the 7th of December with sign ups starting on the 1st with me using the Wii?

It doesn't matter to me either way. I leave it up to you guys.

I need responses before 30th because if I am to get the CPU fixed it will be on that day. So that leaves 4 days.

Just postpone your game and let Khush host. Do yours next year on a working PC.

Mop it up · « **Reply #328 on:** November 25, 2009, 01:55:13 PM »

Yeah, you want your game to be as smooth as possible so I think you should wait. I just hope that Khushrenada can get a game going because I don't want to wait that long...

Well, I wasn't expecting to do my Phoenix Wright game so soon and since I'm not ready for it, I'm not going to do it. Instead, I'm going to bump everyone ahead and take the 40th spot and use a different theme. I do like how everyone just sort of dumped it on me. Maybe I'd like to play another game. Oh well. I can take it. In fact, I'll even start sign-ups right away here.

vudu · « **Reply #330 on:** November 26, 2009, 01:01:25 PM »

I suggested you because you were next in line. If you want to be a baby about it we can get someone else.

I said I can take it.

Khushrenada I am sorry that this thing type of thing happened. I think I gave myself too much time. Darn CPU messing up when I need it.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #333 on:** November 26, 2009, 02:43:58 PM »

No need to apologize. I'm just not quite sure how I'm going to work this myself. I can get on here once in awhile at work and after hours, it is all iPhone. My computer has been down for awhile and I just haven't gotten around to fixing it. But, I'm good. If I can win a game with it, I can host a game with it. Or my Wii. I've got options.

that Baby guy · « **Reply #334 on:** November 26, 2009, 08:22:45 PM »

If you want, I can run the game, if you come up with the rules and start things up. I don't mind running them, but I make it all a bit more complicated than it needs to be when I create them alone. Why not?

Mop it up · « **Reply #335 on:** November 27, 2009, 02:09:19 AM »

I'm sorry Khushrenada, I thought you were next in line...

Khushrenada · « **Reply #336 on:** November 27, 2009, 10:06:56 AM »

I was. I just hadn't bothered to work much on the Phoenix Wright theme. I need to come up with a mystery. Running the game will be fine for the most part. Hardest thing will just be story so you can feel free to play Thatguy. I think you'll like it.

OH GAWD, I missed a star wars mafia? that sucks

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #338 on:** January 15, 2010, 02:54:36 PM »

So Khushrenada's Phoenix Wright game is next. Since the first game is on Wiiware right now this is pretty good timing. I don't know if I am going to play in Khushrenada's game. I have to help out Stratos with his game which is after Khushrenada's game.

I had an idea for a Mafia game based on Mario Party but I don't think it would go over very well. Because the series is prided on being unpredictable, there would be no special roles, just townies, Mafia, and the Godfather. Instead, any player may or may not receive an ability for that day, such as their vote counting double, investigating another player, protecting another player, etc., and these abilities would be determined by a role of the dice before each day begins. I've a feeling that people wouldn't like it because of its random elements, plus I wouldn't want to host it myself because I'd want to play it.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #340 on:** January 15, 2010, 04:22:36 PM »

That is actually a good idea in my opinion. There are some elements of randomness in previous Mafia games. Namely the Mario Kart Mafia games that Plugabugz hosted.
Also the townies only idea would work well to try and get everybody to improve their play.
Would the Mafia be able to use these random abilities?

Stratos · « **Reply #341 on:** January 15, 2010, 04:24:28 PM »

Randomization has been used in games before. I know F-Zero did it and the 'abilities' sound similar to the powerups from Mario Kart mafia so I think it is grounds for a good game.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #342 on:** January 15, 2010, 04:28:42 PM »

Oh Stratos check your PMs. I sent you many PMs about the conversations on your game from a few months back. When you make heads and tails of it send me one clear and concise PM about your plans for the game.

Most abilities would be available to all players, whilst a few would be player-specific. As an example, a protection from a Mafia hit would be a useless ability to a Mafia player, so that one wouldn't be obtainable by one of them.

The host queue is still pretty large so I'll just continue to think about this one.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #344 on:** January 19, 2010, 11:16:02 PM »

I'm going to make a sample AAA mafia post someday soon.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #345 on:** February 16, 2010, 01:44:25 AM »

And you did.

Well, with Mafia 42 wrapped up, I figured it was time to open up some more future hosting slots so any game from 46-50 could be yours.

And now I'll just bump this thread as reminder for Stratos who is next in line to host.

Stratos · « **Reply #346 on:** February 16, 2010, 02:00:26 AM »

Wait...I thought my game was 42?

*pouts*

Oh, well. I'll probably kick off sign ups around the 1st or so.

that Baby guy · « **Reply #347 on:** February 16, 2010, 03:02:36 AM »

You could always make it "The Hitchhiker's Bootleg Guide to the Galaxii" and have numerous errors throughout.

Stratos · « **Reply #348 on:** February 16, 2010, 05:22:10 PM »

I'll just refer to it as 'Mafia 42+1'

vudu · « **Reply #349 on:** February 16, 2010, 05:41:44 PM »

That's some Kingdom Hearts zen **** right there, yo.
