there is only one hell:
the one we live in now
Faith. A belief in that which cannot be proven. Today we mostly associate it with a belief in the theological and supernatural, but throughout history mankind has held faith in any variety of ideas: faith in the authority of an autocrat; faith in the dominance of a culture; faith in a brighter tomorrow. Indeed, faith and hope often blend together, inspiring even in our darkest moments a genuine belief that what we do today will have consequences stretching into eternity.

But as with all human ideas, faith can so suddenly and so easily turn into a tool for hatred and violence. Yet, to lack any faith - to only believe what our limited minds can experience in our short and fleeting lives - leaves one helpless, standing alone in a cold expanse, waiting for the shadow of death to overcome them.

Faith is a rock on which we can stand and look out over the abyss. It is up to us if we choose to jump.




Welcome to this game of mafia! This is a closed-setup game. However, it is a "traditional" game; there will be little that isn't featured on the SA Mafia Wiki or the Mafia flash thingy. However there might still be some surprises thrown your way! Who knows?

To sign up, simply say whether you want to play or be a replacement, whether or not you have PMs, your AIM if you have it, and your email address. I'm "eccoraven" via g-mail. IRC is the best way to get in touch with me outside of PMs, as I only check my email every other day or so.

The standard mafia rules apply: don't do anything that could be construed as "not in the spirit of mafia." But I'm not a huge stickler for rules, so as long as you don't break the game it'll probably be fine. For instance, feel free to edit your posts to fix things like formatting, even if you get caught by the ninja; just be honest about it.

However, please remember that I reserve the right to punish someone as I see fit for whatever thing they do.

My unique quirk: please ##unvote before re##voting. I will not count revotes without unvotes unless you are a double-voter. It doesn't matter what votebot says; votebot is just for your convenience, only the votecounts I present are to be assumed accurate and reliable. If you think you see a mistake in a votecount I have posted, please contact me privately so I may check it.

Posting is very important to me, however I will not expect you to be abuzz with posting things left and right. If you haven't posted for a while, I'll probably prod you with a PM casually, maybe with a "hey go post GO POST NOWWWW". If you have a reason why you're not posting, feel free to tell me -- I like to think I'm fairly reasonable. If you aren't posting and it's going to be a chronic problem, I'll ask if you want a replacement; it's up to you, I just want everyone to have a good time, you included. However, if you're put on probation for more than a day, then I will replace you without warning. So don't get probated!

Try not to post like an illiterate. I know capitalization and grammar are difficult, but you're all adults. A modicum of effort goes a long way. If your posting gets especially bad, you even risk being put on probation and then replaced. Neither you nor I want to have to deal with that.

Every game day will have a deadline. If majority voting has not been reached by then, the day will end with no execution. The Day 1 deadline will be at most 5 days long, and they'll only get shorter! Note that if I am ever for some reason unavailable for a deadline I've set, you should assume it to be floating.

If you are living with, or otherwise have direct RL contact with, another player in the game, please tell me when signing up. It won't affect your chances for playing the game, I just like to know these things in advance.

Anyway! This game is for 25 players. Players new and old are all welcome, however deferential treatment will be given to newer players.

I've just remembered I'll be travelling the 19th-26th, so if this game looks set to start before and during then, I'll have to give up my spot because I won't be able to get online for most of that period, sorry for sucking so badly.

Gonna retool the game into something else if it doesn't fill up by this time-ish tomorrow; probably pulp genre fantasy themed, something really mindless and intellectually deadening.
