SIGN-UP DEADLINE

Best get the sign-ups rolling for now. Sign-ups will close Sunday Feb. 7 at 3:00 EST.

POLL DETAILS

One thing I was thinking about doing with this game is having all days end at 10:00 AM EST with night actions due half an hour after and the next day starting at 11:00 AM EST. The reason for that is because it seems to be the time of greatest overlap for all our players worldwide. In an effort to keep the advantage fair for all players and allow them a chance to be around before the voting ends to make a play.

That said, we'll take a vote on it. I'll make a poll and when sign-ups close, we'll see what the winning side is.

As for rules, story, roles, all that is to come soon enough. I just wanted to get the word out on the game and get it rolling.

LIST OF PLAYERS SO FAR

Maxi
GoldenPhoenix
Vudu
Stevey
Thatguy
Toruresu
Mop_it_up
Stratos
Plugabugz
S-U-P-E-R

I'm in. I haven't played any of the Phoenix Wright games so I am loss of what character to pick. Also someone should get Kairon to play. If I am not mistaken Kairon's Avatar is from Phoenix Wright.

Plugabugz · « **Reply #2 on:** February 02, 2010, 01:01:41 PM »

10AM EST is 3PM? Is that correct?

It should be i think.

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #3 on:** February 02, 2010, 01:03:29 PM »

I'll play Plugabugz mafia

vudu · « **Reply #4 on:** February 02, 2010, 01:39:28 PM »

In as Godot.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #5 on:** February 02, 2010, 06:25:46 PM »

In the Poll I think that the Yes option was at the top and the No option was at the bottom. Now they switched places.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #6 on:** February 02, 2010, 06:49:47 PM »

I'll keep my eye on it to make sure there is no mod influence. I also voted myself so I will know if the position changes. That said, when I made the poll, I thought the yes was on top myself since I put it in option one but I couldn't remember and didn't think anything of it until now.

I'm going to participate in this mafia game.

Im in again

Mop it up · « **Reply #10 on:** February 02, 2010, 09:15:53 PM »

Sure, why not?

I'm afraid I had to vote "NO!" in the poll, as I'm either at work or asleep at 10AM.

EasyCure · « **Reply #11 on:** February 02, 2010, 09:24:09 PM »

I really want to play but i can't!

and i love pheonix wright too..

Don't look at me. I didn't do anything. There's no record of any meddling in the moderation log, but I don't think that sort of stuff is tracked. Of course, I can't think of any other mod who might care besides me.

Stratos · « **Reply #13 on:** February 03, 2010, 02:45:20 AM »

I've never played a Phoenix Wright game so I'm not sure what character I could be.

Kairon · « **Reply #14 on:** February 03, 2010, 03:38:36 AM »

If someone wants Butz so much, I'd be willing to give up my avatar for awhile.

vudu · « **Reply #15 on:** February 03, 2010, 01:24:34 PM »

No one wants to be Larry Butz--not even Larry Butz.

Plugabugz · « **Reply #16 on:** February 03, 2010, 02:59:35 PM »

In as Tricia Takanawa.

S-U-P-E-R · « **Reply #17 on:** February 03, 2010, 03:22:00 PM »

It's been a long time. I'm in.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #18 on:** February 03, 2010, 04:32:00 PM »

It has indeed. I didn't think you were coming back. Awesome surprise. Best of luck.

And now a little fun from Awkward Zombie. Comics! Yaaaaaaay.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #19 on:** February 03, 2010, 06:05:59 PM »

Wow SUPER is playing. I haven't played a game with you yet.

Khushrenada those are great comics!

EasyCure · « **Reply #20 on:** February 03, 2010, 09:17:11 PM »

I think Stratos should be Larry... i feel like the character suites him perfectly

I hope Mop_it_up has played the game so she knows what I'm talking about and can back me up! hehe

if not...linky! conveniently on my clipboard from my last post!

that Baby guy · « **Reply #21 on:** February 03, 2010, 11:17:33 PM »

Has anyone taken that detective fellow yet? I can't recall his name, but he's generally clueless. Could it be Detective Gumshoe?

Mop it up · « **Reply #22 on:** February 04, 2010, 12:25:10 AM »

Wait, Kairon's author icon is a character from Phoenix Wright? I thought it was a drawing of Kairon...

Dasmos · « **Reply #23 on:** February 04, 2010, 01:47:40 AM »

Maxi reminds me of that security guard in the bonus case of the first one.

Also I'll be Edgeworth.

Got a picture and reason why he reminds you of me?

Dasmos · « **Reply #25 on:** February 04, 2010, 09:03:03 AM »

Why he reminds me of you is as follows (from the Ace Attorney wiki): "Meekins is a clumsy, excitable and overzealous individual." and "He's pretty annoying, but also lovable" and if I remember correctly he's also really polite. I dunno just reminds me of you.

He hasn't visited in close to a year, but Gumshoe is still the avatar of Garnee.

I doubt he'll mind if you take it.

EasyCure · « **Reply #27 on:** February 04, 2010, 01:25:12 PM »

Hahaha meekins = maxi!

Prepare for some "check your PMs" from a megaphone!

EasyCure · « **Reply #28 on:** February 04, 2010, 04:35:24 PM »

I was on the fence about joining this game but as I write this I'm waiting to hear if id be picked to be part of the jury of some criminal case and to be honest, I don't want to picture a courtroom setting for a LONG time after today.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #29 on:** February 05, 2010, 01:33:27 PM »

Khushrenada could you add the roles? There is 2 days left till signups end and it would be best to get any questions out of the way now rather than later.

MoronSonOfBoron · « **Reply #30 on:** February 05, 2010, 01:51:42 PM »

You know, I run an AA-based Mafia forum community (and game series), so I'm very interested in this... but as much as I would love to join, my schedule is filled up. I'll content myself to watch; I'm eager to see what you do with the AA concept!

It will be Saturday when I do that. With a smaller turnout, I don't think I'm going to do anything special so I doubt there are going to be any questions. Instead, my focus will probably turn to the story more.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #32 on:** February 05, 2010, 07:01:49 PM »

Alright. Game starts on Monday correct?
Superbowl is on Sunday.

Stratos · « **Reply #33 on:** February 06, 2010, 04:28:25 AM »

Yeah, but who watches the SuperBowl?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #34 on:** February 06, 2010, 09:43:19 AM »

Oh just about everybody in the world.

Hmm signups lately haven't been as big as they used to.Why is that?

Casual player burnout. It's the same reason the sequels for Deca Sports, ExciteTruck, Boom Blox, etc. didn't sell as well as the first games in the series. Not enough to differentiate them.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #36 on:** February 06, 2010, 10:38:48 AM »

Vudu don't you typically like no frills Mafia games. You think if roles get too complicated that it will mess up the game?

vudu · « **Reply #37 on:** February 06, 2010, 11:15:18 AM »

Correct--but I'm not a casual player. I don't mind playing the same game over and over again, because each one has its own nuances and the unpredictability of other players keeps the game interesting for me. But I can see how one could potentially get bored after 40-odd games.

Mop it up · « **Reply #38 on:** February 06, 2010, 09:40:08 PM »

Yeah, I was also wondering why the turnouts have been getting smaller. Perhaps people will start to miss the game and return? Maybe you should call it ExciteMafia Party Bash, that should get people interested.

Ha ha, I can totally see a resemblance to Maxi.

nickmitch · « **Reply #39 on:** February 07, 2010, 10:44:42 AM »

Can I tentatively sign up until I can see if I can get NWR on campus?
If not, I guess I can just try to play on my phone again. Maxi reminded me that my perfect attendance is important.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #40 on:** February 07, 2010, 05:57:57 PM »

Yeah sure. I should be home in an hour or so and close the thread and get things rolling.

Mop it up · « **Reply #41 on:** February 07, 2010, 06:02:01 PM »

My prediction: I'm going to be out the first day. Whether it is through voting or the Mafia hit will depend on which side that Thatguy ends up on.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #42 on:** February 07, 2010, 08:54:40 PM »

Do you want to just save us the trouble and agree to take each other out on the first day?

that Baby guy · « **Reply #45 on:** February 07, 2010, 11:15:06 PM »

Sure, so I'll use my mafia hit on you, if you turn all the votes against me. Sound fair?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #46 on:** February 08, 2010, 12:28:22 AM »

What I find funny is that the game hasn't even started and you guys are planing on taking each other out. You two could be on the same team.

that Baby guy · « **Reply #47 on:** February 08, 2010, 02:40:39 AM »

No, we're not on the same team. If we were, I wouldn't aim my mafia hit at her.
