The New OFFICIAL Mafia Hosting Sign-Up Thread (READ 1st POST!)

[sonicchaos1993]

So you want to host a mafia game here on Hamumu? That's awesome, since mafia here is run by the community and dedicated hosts help this game survive. In order to make sure that our hosts have mafia experience and to prevent broken games, there are some requirements to host. Make sure you read them all before you sign up. Failure to do so will result in your post being ignored and silently ridiculed.

Hosting Requirements:

1. In order to sign up, a potential host must have played through the majority of 3 games at the time he/she signs up.
2. Upon signing up for the first time, a potential host must post 1-2 posts from each of the three games. These posts must show a full understanding and knowledge of the game works and display intelligent thought. Posts that are simply "Vote: Robot because he's a machine" or bandwagons do not display knowledge and understanding of the game and should not be posted as examples. Posts must be approved by an experienced host before a potential host can be added to the list.
3. A host's name may only be on the list one time. This includes the game in progress--once your game has ended, you can sign up to host again.
4. Hosts are required to be able to check on their game at least once a day. If you are unable to do so, you should get a co-host that can do so.
5. Any game that is broken due to host error will result in the host being required to play 3 games before signing up again. A host that repeatedly host broken games may be required to have an experienced mafia host as a co-host or, in extreme cases, no longer allowed to host games. The 3-game penalty will also be given to lurking hosts, unless the circumstances that caused said lurking was beyond their control.
6. Mafia players that object to a certain player being a mafia host should direct their objection, along with the reasoning and evidence behind it, to me via PM. If there is a case to not allow somebody to host, or to only allow them to host with an experienced host as a co-host, I will have the mafia community vote on the issue.

Remember, hosting a mafia game takes a lot of work. If you aren't willing to put the time into hosting and checking on your game, you may want to reconsider hosting a game.

Bah, I can't host my Mafia game at the time it will end up falling, due to practice exams, so I'm pulling out.

Against my better judgement, I'm putting myself down to host My Little Mafia. What could possibly go wrong?

I'll Host Mafia Mafia, A team sport.

[seamonkey]

This is just me restating the schedule, not signing up (especially since I never did get myself authorized to do so). Also when Julian skipped himself the numbering got off and it's bugging me. I'm also fixing that.

As I'm currently addicted to this game and its given me a great idea for a mafia setup, I'm going to switch the theme of my game to Borderlands Mafia.

EDIT: Also, it appears that hyperme was never added to the list (unless he asked to be removed somewhere that I didn't notice).

Felixrain should be next, but he hasn't posted a sign up thread. How long should we give him before delaying his game?

[sonicchaos1993]

1-2 weeks is reasonable, but we should take into account that signups will need some time to run as well, and we don't want too long of a break between games.

Also I could use some input on the setup I have drafted up for Borderlands Mafia, so if you want to take a look at that shoot me a PM. Note that, since I'll need to send you the role list, you can't play in the game if you do this, but you could co-host if you wanted too.

Skip him, he hasnt visited/posted in forever and our games take long enough as it is.

[sonicchaos1993]

I'm going to go ahead and start making a signups thread for Borderlands Mafia, if Felixrain doesn't post signups before Friday (a week since the last game ended) I'll go ahead and start BL Mafia assuming there's enough signups and nobody objects.

[sonicchaos1993]

(Double post since this is too important to just edit in to my previous post)

I just realized after making signups for Borderlands Mafia, the annual All Star Game (if we are doing that annually) would normally start around this time. There isn't enough time to set this up to be the next game but if enough people are still interested in this we could possibly do it later on. Only issue, of course, is that we seem to have less players than last year so it might just be the same players as in most normal mafia games. Thoughts?

[Gigacat]

:/ It happens right before my game AGAIN :P Ahh well, i support this although we may need to downsize.

[texasjoshua]

Im good for another All-Star Game, someone want to sign up to host it? I'll do it if no one else wants too.

[Julian]

I can host it.

[hyperme]

Changing numbers to be correct and also changing my game theme.
