[spoiler=Season 2 Information]

Hi everyone!

So as some of you may remember, I hosted the 2013-2014 season of the Mafia Championship. It featured 100+ players from 45+ different communities and was even endorsed and supported by the creator of mafia himself who agreed to chat with the ultimate winner.

Now it's time for season 2 and I was hoping that you guys would be interested in participating once again. The first time around you guys were represented by SB.

If you guys are interested, I will leave it completely up to you how you go about choosing your representative. Activity-wise it won't be as insane as the first season, seeing as it's 13-player games this time (more on format below), but nonetheless it will still require a lot of activity. Expect maybe 500 posts per day for the first few days.

Also, I wish to address this head on: I can understand if you guys are skeptical after the game that SB participated in. For one, it was horribly balanced and it also had a bunch of egos fighting each other, so it made for an unenjoyable experience. The first problem won't be an issue this time (the setup has been run 200 times and town wins 52 % of the time), and the second problem I've learned to do careful vetting for and it worked for the last 2 games in the series which were very enjoyable and every single player was happy about participating. Apart from some players that participated in Game 3, I never received a complaint during season 1 - every other game went off without a hitch, so I hope you won't be too quick to condemn the entire series based on Game 3 :)

The info:

The current plan for season 2

65 different communities will be represented.

1 player per community for the entire season (preferably).

5 qualifying games will be played with 13 players each.

2 players advance to the finale from each game based on post-game votes.

3 additional players are granted wildcard spots.

Game setup

The game will have a very basic mafia setup: 3 mafia members, 9 vanilla townies and 1 cop. The cop starts the game with a random vanilla townie peek. Roles revealed upon death.

Some communities are not very used to playing basic setups like this, but for the first season, we utilized a setup with a good share of power roles, so this time around we are trying something new. For season 3 we will switch it up again.

Days will last 36 hours and nights 12 hours, meaning 48 hours (2 days) per game day. With one exception: The weekend (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) will be one game day (so day will be 60 hours and night 12 hours on weekends). This means the game will last a maximum of 2 weeks.

Timeline

The first game is set to start April 6th. The other four games will take place in the 1-3 months after that. I will make a Doodle and find out the best times to start the 5 games so that preferably everyone gets to play during a time that suits them well.

In addition to this, it is also a priority to ensure as much as possible that all the players in any given game has no prior history of playing with each other to ensure a level playing field (but I cannot 100 % guarantee that this wont happen).

I don't think it'll be good to have a thread discussion of the game because some of us will inevitably know the alignment of the person participating and it'll be difficult to keep that hidden, especially if they're scum and then by extension we know their buddies too.

Yeah, all communites are being strongly advised to NOT openly speculate on roles or anything of that sort in an open forum where their representative's competitors could technically see that. Rather they should only comment very broadly and generally on the game, or they should keep their discussions in private places - such as quicktopic, yes. But for those who want to spectate with people from other sites, we'll have a Skype spectator chat. It attracted a ton of people last time and was super fun.

I just labeled it as discussion to make clear it's not a game topic. Obviously we're not going to openly talk about the game as it's being played.
