    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.

    Remember that time I was literally the economy in a game of mafia?

  3. 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.

    I'd honestly rater have to be doing that than re-interview for a chance to keep a job I've held for over two years.

    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.

    Sorry, don't think I should risk it. I don't want to be the guy who has to drop out due to life events. In perspective: my substitute gig only goes on for a few more weeks before summer break. Last week I was contacted by a recruiter for a potential IT gig. I am going to either spend the summer earning my teaching certificate in prep for fall or be working a new IT job, or worst case scenario be working wherever and whenever I can because neither my wife nor I have gainful employment.

    Ah, didn't realize the plans were that firm, sounded more nebulous the first time you said it.

    See the thing is we're at a bit of a crossroads at the moment where we aren't sure how busy or not we'll end up by summer or even fall, so a primary candidacy is out of the question for me.

    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.

    Wasn't I a backup at some point for you?

    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.

    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.

    But yeah I hit the maximum a few times last year :v

    "A good amount of activity on a daily basis."

    It could only be Orange or Shade. :v

  10. 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.

    Like if you're going to accuse me of being scum... don't follow my plan...

    I feel like having a GM-confirmed Townbot kinda broke things. Maybe. I mean, the arguments Jeod and Orange were having were both valid, I was having the same thoughts. But it was mostly them being unwilling to be sent D2 that got them marked.
