Cliffs:
- 135 communities participating
- Your representative plays in a 15-man qualifying game whenever it suits them best in late April, May or June
- Setup: Mountainous (3 mafia goons vs. 12 vanilla townies). Going pure mafia this year to try that out for the first time. You have only your reading/bluffing abilities to count on.
- Your representative must be prepared to deal with potentially 500+ posts per day for the first few days. And they must post at least 10 times each Day Phase. So a lot of activity is required.
If you have any questions, let me know
Thx Tatts for posting this.

What are times for day/night, etc?
Who did we send last time? I think Khell and Blend should go as a team, then they'll confuse everyone with their weird dynamic.

Okay... Now I can, wtf
That's largely up to your representative. There are 9 qualifying games with varying phase lengths and times for when days end. I'm sure we can work something out that suits your rep at least well enough.

If Nom thinks that then Nom has a lot to learn yet. Not once it mentioned how his avatar looks like a hole. Nor how dragons/animal/warren alts could copulate with said hole. Nor speculation on how perhaps this was the ultimate cause of the birth of Shadow after a Night with Thyrllan.
I'll second Nom

I agree Nom should give it a go, 500 posts per day though, quite a tough ask.

I agree with sending Nom!
There is no struggle too vast, no odds too overwhelming, for even should we fail - should we fall - we will know that we have lived. ~ Anomander Rake
My sig comes from a game in which I didn't heed Blend's advice. So maybe this time I should. ~ Khellendros
I'm just going to have to come to terms with the fact that self-vote suiciding will forever be referred to as "pulling a JPK" now, aren't I? ~ JPK

Nom! Nom! Nom!
When I subbed in halfway through, there were like a thousand pages to read. I did not read them. I picked out one person who I thought was posting in a sitting-on-the-fence kind of way and just kept repeating over and over that they were scum. Unsurprisingly, no one listened (I wasn't exactly able to give details), they were scum, we lost.
The best thing about doing it is coming across the weird different ways that non-Malaz people play (and the obtuse abbreviations they use), it's actually quite an interesting learning experience. And Tatts is a rank amateur when it comes to their posting numbers. But just point out to them how pointless it is to post that much - they love that

Yes yes I've been summoned
If Nom thinks that then Nom has a lot to learn yet. Not once it mentioned how his avatar looks like a hole. You all already know that very well. Nor how dragons/animal/warren alts could copulate with said hole. You already know that very well too. Nor speculation on how perhaps this was the ultimate cause of the birth of Shadow after a Night with Thyrllan. One birth and after one night? Hah! That's really sweet speculation.
I'll second Nom
That's about 2/3 of posts of our average game
Ofcourse, can't say no to that, it's honour and all that.
Haha, that might just be your statistically most succesful tactics as town
Oh I will!

lately you've been either scarily insightful, or just completely wrong about everything.
Either way, it makes for exciting watching, usually.

lol thx for quoting that
that's actually meant to say step 4 (you've done it, so no worries), I switched stuff around
you don't HAVE to name a backup, mind you, but it's usually nice to have one elected

Update on The Mafia Championship
Exciting news: We are expanding to 150 participating communities, which is more than last season. In fact, we may even go for 165 communities depending on how some invitations go.
On that note, if you know of a community that might be interested in participating and isn't on the list in the linked post, let me know and I'll be happy to give them an invitation: http://www.mafiauniv...l=1#post1070949
Since none of the representatives chosen at this point have indicated that they can only play if their game starts April 24, I have made the decision that the qualifying phase won't begin until May 1st in order to allow me more time to get everything properly organized and to get all representatives properly prepared. This will have no impact on the overall schedule for this season; the qualifying phase will still be wrapped up by early July, after which we dive into the wildcard games followed by the finale game.
As for how to spectate your representative, I'll get back to you with more info on that, but cliffs: Your community may of course create your own private spectator chat (that your rep can't access), but the general spectator chat (where all communities gather and chat together) will be on Discord this year. If you want an invite to the server already now, just write me.
