UPDATE ON MAFIA CHAMPIONSHIP

Originally, the plan was for this season to feature 135 communities. We will now have 165 participating communities, which means that this season alone we will have more different communities represented than all other seasons combined. Approximately 60 communities are participating for the very first time. Of the returning communities, about a dozen of them are resending a previous representative, while the rest are all sending fresh faces.

As a result of how big this season has gotten, we'll have more games to look forward to than ever before. We will have 11 qualifying games, 2 wildcard games and 1 finale game = 14 games in total.

All kinds of communities are partipating. Besides the sites dedicated specifically to mafia, we have forums dedicated to popular entertainment, sports, poker, board games, online games, video games, role playing, LEGO, personality type testing, stick figure animations, science, atheism, music, mathematics, comics, students, etc. Some of these communities started playing mafia more than a decade ago; Others just started this year.

Despite this being a forum event, we will also have communities that play the game via various chat clients (Discord, Telegram, IRC, custom, etc.) and via webcam (with games often streamed on Twitch.tv). And not least, there are communities centered around mafia game variants that you can buy on Steam (Town of Salem and Throne of Lies).

This season will also have the biggest international scope yet. For the very first time we will have representatives from Romania, Hungary, Chile, Portugal, Ukraine and Czechia as well as our first person representing a Japanese community. We even have our first Native American.

In addition to this, we of course welcome back countries such as USA, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Poland, Italy, Indonesia, South Africa and Ireland, meaning that we'll have more than 20 different countries represented in total.

_________________________

Next update: I am hoping very much I will have all the info I need from all of the representatives by Wednesday at the latest next week. Assuming I do, I will schedule all the qualifying games on this day and get back to you with your representative's start date.

So instead of paying attention today in Statistics, I had the brilliant idea of what started as a Les Mis game that morphed into musicals in general! I looked through the old games list and didn't find this one! So I have an excel sheet with 23 roles so far. This game won't be until after my surgery this summer (late May), but I wanted to get my game on the list.

YESSS. Les Mis/general musicals is actually a theme I wanted to see happen, ha! Les Mis is my jam, so many nights watching it with my friend in undergrad--one of my usernames elsewhere is a Javert line, lmao. Another must-play, assuming it happens after finals.
(my dad also constantly pokes fun at Russel Crowe's singing...I don't mind it, I mean it's definitely not great, but I find it almost hilarious)

On this train late, but as far as musicals - I liked the Wicked musical, but I've never been able to make it through the book. Would be excited by Little Shop of Horrors (never seen the musical, but I found the original black and white movie and watched it once).

Sadly, the only musicals I've seen live are Wicked and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Would recommend the second for inclusion. I'd also like to add Addams family or Spamalot because I 😍 their soundtracks.

Spamalot is one of the only 2 musicals I've seen live! I saw it on my high school trip to London. (the other is Beauty and the Beast whenever it came to Austin, but I was a kid so I don't really remember that one)

Do you wish to spectate and/or talk with players from other communities?
We have a big chat on Discord (300+ members) for those that want to spectate and talk about these games. The representatives will be added to this channel too after they die. Or if you just want to chat with people from other communities, we have a general chat too that is unrelated to the Mafia Championship.

1) CLICK HERE TO JOIN: Discord - Free voice and text chat for gamers
2) Tag one of the red or blue people in the chat (write @Thingyman or @staff for example), let them know who you are and from what community, and they'll give you the necessary permissions to see the spectator channel. This is necessary to avoid the wrong people (the representatives and their backups) joining the channel.

You don't need to have Discord installed in order to join the channel, as there is a web version.

Do you want to have your own private community spectator chat?
This is definitely both allowed and encouraged. However, I ask that you please do everything possible to make this chat private and inaccessible to your representative, backup and your representative's opponents. It's important that your thoughts and comments don't influence the game. In other words, please don't post about the game in public threads -- this is very important.

Where do I get more info?
Refer to this thread: Season 4: The Time Is Now!

This thread will tell you all the details about this season. It also includes the list of participating communities and their representatives.
__________

If you need to get in contact with me, my Skype is "thingyman" and my Discord is "Thingyman#6075". From this point on I will be checking in less on the various sites. I will make sure to pop in again though when your representative's game starts and post a link 🙂

I don't know Dubzy, I thought we would just bump it straight from D to A one day. But I wouldn't want to hold you back from having as many games as possible in active development 😛

@Bottle of Bear is baby modding??? Has he even played a game since the noob game? 😛
 
PippyPony said:
Also, based on how many posts he likes, he follows along with the games more than some people who are actually playing, so he (and ski, for that matter) might as well just play 🙄
Click to expand...
Wellllll as a spectatortot, I don't like any posts relevant to game play. 😉 wouldn't want to give any hints/ clues, but yeah. At least once a day, when we're both spectators, Ski texts me multiple texts analyzing the game/ yelling at the players, and all I think is "oh is that game still going?" oops.
 
PippyPony said:
Oh no 🙁 Does she get a shot at another round, or is that it for the championships?
Click to expand...
Every player votes and 1 player advances from each group. There's a board of judges that also pick 1-2 people per game to play a wildcard game. So it might be over but it's unclear. Can't talk about the game but I'm not overly upset I died early
