[Tapper]

Righteo people, last few games died prematurely and if not that, they most certainly had to roll over, belly up, and beg for attention of the signees to actually get a post every now and then.

We have a couple of high TMDI's scheduled that await players. Players we somehow never seem to get, despite having the biggest amount of players ever before the summer. So, let's see who is around and available, shall we? You still interested? You have time? Show us where oh where you are and post below, before we're forced to unleash dibs to run Mafia 51.80, 51.82, 51.87 and finally 51.995 and 51.996!

So far, the following people admitted their addiction answered the call for battle:

Answered with a (conditional) yes:
- Tapper (next two/three weeks)
- alt146 (can play but not with high-posting intensity)
- Bent (busy at work, can play but not spam)
- Venge (can play from work, not in the weekends)
- dibs (is Irish, so has no life and will play. always. Therefore, he didn't even reply to the post )
- MTS
- Grief (until december)
- Stalker (can play while at school)
- STD
- PB (but not in the weekends, on account of hand-egg)
- Ment (not next week, but has loads of time after that)
- Breadmaster (available, but not able to spam)
- bwgan (needs a blackberry, but has kids, so can tell her daughter to play for her)
- Sixty (although not now!)
- Baudin (but gets tough after the 27th of september)
- Gemsywhemsy (because she's the Queen of HHM)
- General King (modcrafty)
- The Dude (another one not lost to the warrens)
- D'rek (cause RotTK is far from finished!), but problematic with uni, especially tuesdays and wednesdays.

Maybe:
- Bubba (yes, yes, yes, he's maybe back, make the man a Ben for life!)
- Lisheo (still enjoying the married life. He'll be back )

Not yet called in to say yes, but expected to volunteer:
- dkt (can always play, albeit by post and thus dependant on south african postal doves since they're more reliable than adsl, but never in the weekend).
- Morgoth (once dibs starts winning too many games he'll feel required to join in)
- Morgoth45 (announced he was back)
- Silencer (has some exams soonish, but is an addict)
- Gavin (the one carded longest term member of HHM who actually isn't a member of HHM according to his group)
- Slick Mongoose (always good for a game or two)
- Hinter (cause he was in the last game)
- HD (because what other game can you play drunk, and be good at, too?)
- Obdi (unless he's modding, then he's bound to be occupied by ill fate)
- Yellow (probably busy, but he's an addict too).


Lost in the warrens:
- JA (we miss him )
- J_slr (solely on modcraft, I think?)
- Q21 (spiralling down to legendary status)
- Macros (asking us to hold our breath so he can win by default)
- Malaese (although he has been seen at times in SH, you heard it here
first!)
-The Dude:just dissapeared one day, we miss him, and his mentophobia...

[Tapper]

I am Tapper * hi Tapper * and I admit I am a member of HH Mafia * applause *

I can play for the next few weeks until the start of october when all hell will break loose at work, expected to settle by the second week of that month, and then available again.

[alt146]

I think it's just a busy time for a lot of the mafia faithful and a lot of the old players seem to have disappeared - Q21 and Jslr both had to concentrate on their studies, Maccy cant get on at work, JA moved countries, Lish is getting married (or drunk or both) and Morgy is increasingly busy in RL. There's a whole bunch more that just havent been around lately - Yellow, Kurt and other's I've probably forgotten. It's a pity, but I dont see too much that can be done about them.

I try play as much as I can, but since I started working (and now that my trainee period is drawing to a close) I have maybe a quarter of the time that I used to to play

So I'm interested and can judge how busy I should be on a week to week basis, but I dont expect to have much more time to play than what I do at the moment.

[Bent]

I tried to play the last game, but got covered up at home with the wife and stuff. I am at work now, but I cant dedicate a ton of time while here. I guess this means, that I can sign up, but my contributions will be low, meaning not alot of super spam, etc. like I used to be able to do. But I should be able to at least keep up and contribute.

[Vengeance]

Hi my name is vengeance...
I can usually only post for a couple of hours a day at work. I am hardly every around computers on the weekends as such that is my slowest time.

I am usually a mid poster although if the stars align themselves right I can spam. Expect more of the same from me going into the fall season.

[drinksinbars]

i dotn see why everyone gets so snippy about posting. you dont need to post a fuckload to play. these smaller games have more tactics and are harder so more rewarding. people just need to work harder.

yeah Dibs, but if scum, I want to post alot, to push the play where I want it, and if inno, I want to post alot to make sure my team has at least info on me, where if I didn't post, I would be an unknown, blah blah blah.

[Vengeance]

See it can work other ways as well. As scum I like to float along in the peripheral not quite leading but not invisible either. As an inno I like to do the same but for different reasons.

[drinksinbars]

yeah but thats your choice. its not really anyone elses place to dictate. regardless of what other people do you must make cases on their behaviour. the amount of posts dont really help, its whats in them that counts.

[MTS]

Seems I've picked a bad time to pop my Mafia cherry.

I guess I can play some, depends what I get up to, I guess.

This is very true. There has always been players who have been able to be on for longer periods of time then other players. The players who are always on have always complained about the players who only come on and post a bit. None of them are at fault just different access and styles...

[Sir Thursday]

My period of travels etc. has now finished, so I am up for playing again. +1 to population of Malaz Mafialand!


I suspect participation will increase back up to the levels it was at last spring once we start having games with more activity in (people see a fun game being run and want to join in), so playing a few minis might be a good idea.


Sir Thursday

[Bent]

welcome back STD.

[Mentalist]

I'm done work and am currently unemployed and out of school.

I have a shitload of time, though i'll be gone for the entire week next week. Yay for a much-needed vacation.

once i'm back, I should have tons of time to play, untill I manage to find a job.

[Peanutbutta]

I'm available during the weeks.

Weekends are pretty much no-go with Football back on. GO CHARGERS!

Welcome back
now, about that Deathmatch....

[Breadmaster]

Yes, the summer seemed to kill my activity, as well. The one game I tried to come back for I ended up getting modkilled for inactivity.

I would like to try and pick it up again, but will never be able to invest boatloads of time to it, so I will be another in the pool of low posters. Added to this is the fact that my laptop power cord is completely dead, so I can't play from home at the moment, but that should be fixed within a week.

I do think about the games a lot, so, as DiBs was saying, I don't necessarily think my participation will hinder a game.

Anyway, that's the situation for me. I should be around to throw my hat in for the next game, but don't expect a spam-fest out of me.

[bwgan]

When I am playing I can barely think about anything else, although it doesn't mean that it translates into lots of posts...I am just a low poster in all the forumses. Added to which when I think of something to say, by the time I have typed it out someone else has said it... .

I haven't been around much since my hols and I can't post in work. Humph...I'll just have to get a Blackberry...or something.
