We used to have a game every weekend but it slowed down a bit lately. I'm not sure we'll get back to it.

Well I'm sure you all have fun -even if it isn't playing mafia.

Hey, I guess I'm not the only new person to have recently joined.
As you have probably gauged, I'm new to this forum, and fairly new to mafia for that matter. I've found a few of the mafia communities which seem more chilled and shall we say 'noob-friendly', and I was hoping to really learn mafia. I do a fair bit of performing arts as a hobby so I've played the game in person a lot, but the online version is understandably very different as one relies on arguments of a different kind.
But anyhow I'm in the process of reading the mafia guides, and I hope to make friends along the way. Question is: I see you've talked about a shortage of mafia games, and I'm wondering if there's any chance that there will be one soon, since I'm eager to begin. Also, when would you feel the time and experience level of someone is high enough to host a game? I'm just curious, as when I figure out the game itself, I feel that looking at it from a moderator's perspective can offer a fresh viewpoint and skills.
So, uh... yes. And I don't know whether all you guys are the kind of person, but I'd love to get to know people better and vice versa so I don't know, perhaps someone can introduce themselves to me and ask me something about myself too. I do enjoy getting to know potential future company so I hope this request isn't too weird.
This got a little long winded, but I'm eager to make a good first impression so... yeah. Hey!
And who is this person with the amazing Margaery as an avatar? I do quite like Game of Thrones!

Hi P
We've literally just finished one but signups open sometime during the week, usually Wednesday onwards and the game will start probably, like, Friday or something
Depends on who's hosting. Not sure who will host but we'll work something out. I really enjoyed myself last game with quickit (the new guy lol) because he got me pumped for the game. I think a lot of others like him too and i'm sure we'll like you too!
You can host a game whenever. It's not a matter of being here for a certain amount of time and earning a... badge.... or whatever, brownie points or some shizz to be able to host xD Whenever you feel ready just say. Actually there is a very forgotten about mafia central place (i think there's one here? we had one on an old sims 3 forums we used to play on but we've since moved and i THINK the thread is here too, now) so you can find the hosting thing there, fill it in and stuff and we'll arrange your game. Also if anyone wants cohosts i think any of us would be willing to help cohost if it's your first time... or any time
Margaery is our little Hermione/Hermy
She's obsessed with game of thrones. Quite a few of us watch GoT, actually. Me included xD
It's nice to meet you though!
I'm Emily/Emzy... errrr
My favourite colour is purple? Do people care? Idek
We're all a laid back jokey bunch so just don't be TOO serious and don't be rude and shizz and you'll get along with us all just fine xD
What do you want to know?

Thanks! It's Poison Ivy, as I do like her as a character. I love comics and graphic novels in general, and have amassed quite the collection over time. And DC > Marvel, always.
And lots of you guys love GoT? Neato! What's your favourite house? I myself love house Greyjoy. Mainly from the books, as there's not much to say for anyone but Theon on the show. Although next season looks promising Greyjoy-wise. And they've been staying pretty neutral so far, and have a strong fleet of warships, so no time like now for them to get going. But anyway...
I don't really have a favourite colour. Maybe... I don't know... grey. Heh.
Where are you all from then? I'm from New Zealand, although I lived in Canada for half my life so my accent is a strange mix of both, and I'm also half Norwegian on my Dad's side so I've picked up just a hint of that. I'm in Uni in Auckland right now, so... yeah. Life. Anyway, I'm writing up a wall again, so... I'm eager to learn more about you guys too!
And out of curiosity, do you guys use your actual names for the most part, or just nicknames that happen to look like regular names? I can switch my username to my actual name if it's part of the 'deal' here.

Hello p! My name is Nadine, some people call me Lizzy (since LizzyBallet was my name on the old forum, so don't get confused ). Here's the link to the Mafia Central if you want to book a hosting spot or want to see what game is next (I don't think it is up to date at the moment, we've been slowly getting back to playing) : ultimatemafia.boards.net/thread/33/mafia-central-home-allI'm from South Africa. I don't think we've had someone here before from New Zealand, so that's pretty cool! We have lots of Americans, one Scot (Emily, who you met), a few from England, Wales, Germany, yeah, I think that's it. I use my actual name but quite a few people use nicknames, so go with whatever you prefer. I can't wait to get a chance to play with you!

Hi Nadine!
South Africa? Neat! I went there two or three years ago. Loved it! As a fun fact, I've been to every continent, even Antarctica!
My name's Dagne/Dagny (a Norwegian name, and also the name of a book character from a book my mother likes; I forget the title). And I'm not actually sure of the spelling, as it's been spelt both ways in the past (weird, I know). But I guess I typically go with Dagny (pronounced as spelt, hard G). Feel free to call me either that or P, or whateer else you want, as I'm not fussed.
I'll take a look at the mafia central and sign up for something when/if I feel ready.
And I must say, you guys are all nice! Real nice! I like it!

Alleen is also a South African. Yay for someone who's been here! None of the others have, where did you come here? You are so lucky to have been able to go to all those places! I'd love that! I'm happy you like us We like new people.

We went to Cape Town for a few days and then flew across to Pretoria. So I guess I saw both ends of South Africa.
I'm actually one of the few people who haven't read Hunger Games or Divergent. I probably will at some point. I've also heard of Clockwork Angel, so since someone I know likes it I could try it out. I enjoy a variety of books. I think one of my favourites has to be 1984, which I found really... good. Ahah.

I'm 15 and from Scotland! Our group are from the states, England, Wales, South Africa, Germany.... That's it i think. Some of us use nicknames some of us use usernames. I'm using a nickn.... bahahaha usernames and nicknames are basically the same thing. Whoooops Let's try that again. Some of us use nicknames and some of us use our own names. I'm using a nickname people usually call me. They call me Emzy or just Em.

Hi P! It's nice to meet you! I'm Caro (short for Carolin) which is my real name and I'm from Germany as Em already said. It's really cool that you've been to every continent! I never left Europe but at least I've seen a few places here. I would love to go to Japan though! That is one of my dreams and yeah I would also like to meet some of the people from here. We only play mafia games on the weekends because it's too stressful during the week with all the different time zones and stuff but sign ups are open usually around tuesday/wednesday, so keep an eye out. I'm not sure who is going to host the next game, maybe I'll do it again because I had fun last weekend. But we'll see. I'm looking forward to play a game with you though

And yeah, Viserys, while rather good-looking, was quite like a watered-down Joffrey. They seem to get worse, don't they? First Viserys, then Joffrey, now Ramsay... I've briefly been to Scotland, although I haven't seen much. In one or two years I'll be taking a year of uni in Oxford though, so I'm excited to (hopefully) see more of the UK, and Europe while I'm at it! Em or Emzy, I'll remember that. Neat!

I'm not sure how I'll go about it yet, but I've got relatives in Canada so maybe I'll start from over there. Either way, Florida sounds like a blast. As someone who quite likes LEGO (shh, I know, I know...), I'm looking to visit the new Legoland they have there. Savings, ehh... heh... nyeh...
