Mafia Game 23: The Dresden Files (Registration Open)
Isaac Send a noteboard - 18/07/2011 07:53:15 PM
Okay the game selected by a narrow margin was Dresden Files, which coordinates well with the new book for the series coming out Tuesday July 26th. For more information on the game check out these links... Dresden Files - wiki, Dresden Files - TV Tropes, and the TV show on Hulu which has all 12 episodes of the series, now canceled. We will be following the book series, not the TV show, but the flavor is sufficient and an extensive knowledge of the series is helpful but hardly mandatory.
The game will follow the traditional Day/Night cycle but in game Day's are roughly 2 week periods between Full Moons and New Moons with Nights simply being that night. Except for Day/Night 1, which will be slightly longer, we will be using 13 day long game Days and 48 hour game Nights as deadlines and of course Days end on a majority vote for lynch or no lynch.
If you are not familiar with the rules, just go to our New Mafia Rules page, which has just been updated to the new v 4.0 and includes a lot of helpful guides and links. Since they did just get updated veteran players may want to review them as well, the core rules are more or less the same as the Version 3.2 Rules but you may want to compare them and review some of the additional material attached to it. Also this version of this post removes earlier discussion about role generation, click on Edit 5 below if you want to review that but its been removed to streamline this main post. Any latecomers or new players joining us who want to review that should click on that earlier copy, but it was removed primarily because it uses a lot of our in-house jargon and violates my tentative truce with the concept of brevity, pertinent details will be reviewed after the game begins.
Registration is Open
Registration is expected to close either Saturday evening, with the game to begin Sunday Afternoon.
Players Registered - 7

Plus, it'll do a lot to handicap those who "know" the books vs. those who don't *NM*
