Anywho I thought up a character last night, I'll submit it later tonight after I get everything at home taken care of now that I'm home from overtime and I find the patience to check my PMs twice in a day because Shade's been arguing about economics with me for the past TWO MONTHS and it's exactly what you'd expect.
But seriously, "overtime" is helping out with data entry instead of my normal job... but data entry isn't actually that boring when you're getting paid nearly 3x min wage to do it
AA is pretty great, even if my disjointed playthrough spanning a decade and out of order means I have the timeline all screwed up, but hey, it's that sort of game.
I can probably be in for Mafia again, though as long as it's not one of the super duper involved ones, and my activity level isn't going to be as insane as it once was. But holy hell, do I get a lot of PTO at this job and they cap us at 5 days carry over for the year so I have to find something to actually use it on.
Yeah, mine technically wasn't that bad, I already had the job, they just needed proof of one specific thing which I had to track down myself (took 3 hours after it took them 2 weeks) but it delayed getting some other critical paperwork filed that could have been worked on in the intervening time.
And like, even if you're really unsure about what times specifically will be open, you can always swap games once signed up too, they allow that and generally people are pretty friendly about being accomedating.
The first round runs from May 10 through early July, so there's some leeway with the dates if you want to try. After accepting you basically get linked to a big Doodle form where you list your availability and there's plenty of times to choose from so assuming your not like booked solid you could probably make it work. Game 1 starts May 10 so if you want to squeak something in fast we can rush this through and see if you can get posted to that.
You could probably handle it Jeod assuming you don't have a substitute teaching assignment at the same, and be sure to read their forum rules too because they're much stricter about things like "Don't reference your role PM" etc.
Multiple people have been, since I've gone a few years now in a row. Shade even was my official backup once despite his obstinance. I think Sunflower was once too but only because I promised her I wouldn't sub out.
Not only did I hit the maximum, actually, but I specifically hit the maximum while claiming people hitting the maximum were scummy and doing so got me town cred.
The requirement is 10 posts per phase, it's not that much, and the past 2 years they've actually had maximums too not just minimums so people don't get blown out of the water.
Hey everyone, we've been invited to Season 8 of Mafia Championship!
Given I'm about to start a new job and I'm gonna be super busy, I probably can't do it this time. I say we send Shade, but we can discuss possible options here.

This doc is the invite, and has a link to this year's setup. Seems like it has a fairly balanced set of roles, some power roles and vanilla, so it's not mountainous at least.
I think the problem was how they reacted to my argument of "scum wouldn't sabotage if both were sent together, let's send this combo that's exactly the scum team together and find out". They agreed with me... while accusing me of being scum, which was flat out nonsensical and not a town sided argument at all.
