Made 1 hour left to the deadline!

According to your PM.

Game will start soon. Gimme a few hours to get all the final details straightened out and then we will begin. :)

Some basic rules(for when game starts) -

1. This game will be non-standard/parody in nature and thus alot of things won't play similar for most Mafia "pros", but i'm guessing most of them will be able to integrate neatly into the flow of play & newbies especially will have fun with this I think.

2. No telling anyone what side if any you'll be playing(If there will even BE any sides perse).

3. Roleplaying will be allowed and possibly even ENCOURAGED(again as long as it doesn't break any of the other rules, like giving away your side outright.).

Warning to pros: As roleplay is encouraged don't take it as a sign of "scum" as in this game it's not a sure tell, as such.

4. You can chat about the game with other Goggers on the board but try to keep any game OT chat(talking about how you like or dislike the game or etc) in here and not all over the general forums & again don't tell anyone what side you're on.

5. There will be a number of "rooms" in the game, some accessible from Day 1, others only accessible when they become "open" on a following day. All the rooms will be open on the last day.

6. When a new room must be searched for clues(to the ongoing mystery of what is happening overall or who the killers might be), or if a room is being entered for the very first time by anyone, simply bold type "Examine Room" if the room is being entered for the first time by someone/the group or "Search Room for clue" to search a room for any evidence

There may be other things you can do with a room as you progress(as a group or individually) which you are free to guess at as the game goes on. (Example: Search room for food/tools/x)

7. Game is "won" by the side with the most surviving players on the last "day"......Will you survive? We will see.

(Another note....as the game goes on to the last day in most instances, even if the side totals balance out, the game can and will go on even if there's only two players left. Just a head's up.)

Hooray(!), although I'm going to bed now so I won't be here until after work tomorrow.

No problem. The game is set so that it can progress even if a member or two will be busy at a given time. Though I want to encourage a post at least once a day. Is this fine with you?

Yep, feel free to poke me if you think I'm not posting enough.

Could I get a PM when this starts? I easily miss out on stuff.

Well i'm gonna try for tomorrow or so.....but I will let everyone know via PM when it starts.

To all: Game will begin today(Dec 10th) around 6PM or so EST. A map of rooms will be up shortly before, along with the opening post. Please PM me if you can, before that time, that you've read the rules posted ITT and if you will be ready then or not.

What is that GMT?

11 PM


Of course this is an estimated time. The game may start sometime around this time roughly. Of course you don't need to post to the game thread then. You can post whenever you can between when the game thread is made and 12 hours or so afterwards.

That's cool.
I've got to take my daughter to a birthday party this afternoon, but I'll be free from about 8pm GMT....

No problem. The time is just when the first post and game thread will be up. Players have between then(11PM GMT/6PM EST) and 12 hours afterwards to post their initial posts so as to be fair to all and give everyone enough time to acclimate into the game's style of play.

BTW TO ALL: When I said the game will play for a week or so I meant as in game "days"(Day 1/2/etc)....not real world time. I expect the game to take about 3 weeks or so to complete...all things considered.

Further Rules-etc:

1. Each player can search any available/"open" room one time per room per "day", for either clues or Useable Items(tools/weapons/food)...this is done by bolding their request(i.e. Player01 searches Day Room for items(tools/weapons/food)).

If a player searches a room(ex: the Day Room) for items(tools/weapons/food) on Day 1, they may not search that room again for another purpose(clues) until the next "day", but may search another room for either clues or items(tools/weapons/food) if they so choose.

2. Any weapons or tools found by a player in a weapons/tools search of a room become theirs, but any clues found during a clues search of a room by a player become known by/property of all players to use.

3. Players may trade/gift items by agreeing to a trade and then bolding their actions in subsequent posts(Player01 gives Axe to Player 02).

4. Some rooms will be unavailable to enter when the game starts. Players are free to move about and search the available rooms for that day as per above rules. More rooms will become available each "day" as the game progresses. Check the updated map for more info(Map will be posted to game thread upon creation.)
