  1. Hi guys Orange’s Championship game has been scheduled :) GAME 10 (JUNE 8, 48/24, 9 PM EDT EOD) -Rosen (Sufficient Velocity) BeautifulShy (Nintendo World Report) Dragomir (Thriller Bark) Echks (Hypixel) Fransisc0 (Forums of Loathing) genny (Student Doctor Network) Hyde (Werewolf Online) Kaves (Mafia Mystery) onjit (Everybody Edits) OrangeP47 (W3D Hub) Laurentus (Wintreath) RBHeadge PE (Engineer Boards) Schiavetto (Pokemon Showdown) TheGoldenTyranno (DuelistGroundz) Timsup2nothin (CivFanatics) Do you wish to spectate and/or talk with players from other communities? We have a big server on Discord (1,000+ members) for those that want to spectate and talk about these games. The representatives will be added to this channel too after they die. Or if you just want to chat with people from other communities, we have a general chat too that is unrelated to the Mafia Championship. 1) CLICK HERE TO JOIN: https://discord.gg/CwDKmjQ 2) Upon joining the server, please inform us of who you are and which community you are from. We will then give you the necessary permissions to see the spectator channel. This is necessary to avoid the wrong people (the representatives and their backups) joining the channel. You don't need to have Discord installed in order to join the channel, as there is a web version. Do you want to have your own private community spectator chat? This is definitely both allowed and encouraged. However, I ask that you please do everything possible to make this chat private and inaccessible to your representative, backup and your representative's opponents. It's important that your thoughts and comments don't influence the game. In other words, please don't post about the game in public threads -- this is very important. Mafia Championship Podcast For the first time ever, there will be a Mafia Championship podcast. The first episode goes live on Twitch at Sunday 4 PM Eastern - i.e. tomorrow. It will feature 4 former winners. There will also be podcasts on the following Sundays. It will go live here, if you are interested: https://www.twitch.tv/mrthingyman/ Where do I get more info? Refer to this thread: https://www.mafiauniverse.com/forums/threads/25499-Season-7-General-Information This thread will tell you all the details about this season. It also includes a list of the 165 participating communities and their representatives. __________ If you need to get in contact with me, my Discord is Thingyman#6075
  2. Hi guys I'm going on a short vacation tomorrow. Will be back Sunday, April 29. As for the deadline for choosing a representative (or someone volunteering themselves), I am extending this by a couple of days to May 3. When/if your representative is decided, that person should please either PM me on Mafia Universe or reach me on Discord: Thingyman#6075. During evenings I will quickly check messages and get them the information they need to prepare for the game.
  3. Hi guys! Your representative's Mafia Championship game has started: http://www.mafiauniverse.com/forums/threads/8583-Season-4-Game-4-Undertale-The-Mafia-Championship I wish them the best of luck. Remember to please keep discussion of the game to private channels where the players wouldn't be able to see your comments on the game. Also, if you want to spectate the game along with people from other communities, you can join the Discord server here (500+ people): https://discord.gg/zdeEhcg. Just remember to tag @staff and ask them for access to the spectator channel upon joining server
  4. Yup, he's confirmed. Unfortunately he still hasn't sent me a bio, and I really need that ASAP. Maybe some of you can help me fill it out for him? NATIONALITY: [...] STARTED PLAYING MAFIA (YEAR): [...] HAVE PLAYED MAFIA ON THE FOLLOWING SITES: [...] BIO: [Insert whatever information or fun facts that you wish here. Talk about your mafia-related accolades, impressive stats, fun anecdotes, favorite role to play, strengths and weaknesses, your approach to the game, other players' quotes about you, or take out the piss on the whole thing and make some jokes. The ball is entirely in your court, this will be how you present yourself to your fellow competitors and to the 165 spectating communities and your fellow players.]
  5. Voe's game is starting this Monday. He hasn't been online since Thursday though and I need him to confirm his participation; Does anyone have a way of getting in contact with him? @Category 5 Hurricane - if Voe doesn't get back to me by tomorrow evening, are you still good to take his place?

From this point on I will be checking in less on the various sites. I will make sure to pop in again though when your representative's game starts and post a link
  7. Excellent - Cat 5, could I have you sign up on the site too, in case Voe needs to be replaced by you? mafiauniverse.com

  9. If you have someone confirmed as the rep, please tag me or PM me to confirm it to me and I'll send them the info on how to proceed
  10. UPDATE ON MAFIA CHAMPIONSHIP Originally, the plan was for this season to feature 135 communities. We will now have 165 participating communities, which means that this season alone we will have more different communities represented than all other seasons combined. Approximately 60 communities are participating for the very first time. Of the returning communities, about a dozen of them are resending a previous representative, while the rest are all sending fresh faces. As a result of how big this season has gotten, we'll have more games to look forward to than ever before. We will have 11 qualifying games, 2 wildcard games and 1 finale game = 14 games in total. All kinds of communities are partipating. Besides the sites dedicated specifically to mafia, we have forums dedicated to popular entertainment, sports, poker, board games, online games, video games, role playing, LEGO, personality type testing, stick figure animations, science, atheism, music, mathematics, comics, students, etc. Some of these communities started playing mafia more than a decade ago; Others just started this year. Despite this being a forum event, we will also have communities that play the game via various chat clients (Discord, Telegram, IRC, custom, etc.) and via webcam (with games often streamed on Twitch.tv). And not least, there are communities centered around mafia game variants that you can buy on Steam (Town of Salem and Throne of Lies). This season will also have the biggest international scope yet. For the very first time we will have representatives from Romania, Hungary, Chile, Portugal, Ukraine and Czechia as well as our first person representing a Japanese community. We even have our first Native American. In addition to this, we of course welcome back countries such as USA, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Poland, Italy, Indonesia, South Africa and Ireland, meaning that we'll have more than 20 different countries represented in total. _________________________ Final reminder: If your community hasn't picked a representative yet, your deadline is by the end of tomorrow (April 23). Next update: I am hoping very much I will have all the info I need from all of the representatives by Wednesday at the latest next week. Assuming I do, I will schedule all the qualifying games on this day and get back to you with your representative's start date.
  11. Out of the 8 qualifiers last year, I believe two of them were 72/24, one was 12/12 and the rest were 36/12. This season we included the 48/24 option. I think that one and 36/12 are the two most popular options.
  12. Re: choosing the length of Day Phases. Each rep gives me their preferences wrt start date, length of day phases, and some other stuff too. Then when I have all this info, I try to make everyone happy. So ideally and hopefully likely (I managed it last season at least) you will get everything that you want - a start date and day lengths that suit you well.
  13. Hi Jeod You'll be able to follow the game live, yes. We will also have a huge spectator chat on Discord with more than a hundred people cheering on and commenting that you are very welcome to join. In addition to that, we also encourage that you create your own private spectator chat, but it's important that this chat/thread is not only inaccessible to your representative, but also your representative's opponents. Technically I can't prevent you from helping your rep if you really want (since I can't monitor your private communications), but it is very much against the rules to help your representative in any way once the game has begun.
  14. Hello everyone VERTi60 let me know that this would be an appropriate place to post this. __________________________ I would very much like to invite your community to take part in Season 4 of the Mafia World Championship. The Mafia Championship is an annual online tournament series that pits representatives from various forum Mafia (aka Werewolf) communities against one another as they compete to determine the Internet’s greatest forum Mafia player. Each participating community democratically elects one person to represent them and become their “Champion”. Season 1 ran in 2013-2014, while Season 2 and Season 3 ran in 2015 and 2016, respectively. As of Season 3, a total of 160 communities have been represented in the Mafia Championship, making it the largest cross-forum event on the Internet. People from all over participate in these games -- we have American, British, Australian, Danish, Romanian, Spanish, Italian, Swedish, Polish, German, etc. communities. I hope that all this sounds very exciting. If you are interested and would like to send a representative, please let me know as soon as you can. You can use this thread to discuss interest/volunteer yourself/nominate others who you think would make good representatives. More information here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1E9x7nJkSPmv1ZtSKFdSmLsvD4DQoX13i2MA9VG5p4W4/edit Cliffs: - 165 communities will be participating -- hopefully you will be amongst those - The setup this year: 15-man Mountainous (3 Mafia Goons vs. 12 Vanilla Townies) - Qualifiers take place during May and June. So your rep would just need to have 2-3 weeks where they could play during either of those months (they play in just one qualifying game at whatever time suits them best). - Your rep can choose between 12, 36, 48 or 72 hour Day Phases - Your rep needs to make a minimum of 10 posts per Day Phase - The activity will be much higher than what you're used to - expect maybe 500 posts per day the first few days - Deadline for deciding on a rep/volunteering: April 23 (apologies for the tight deadline, I only discovered your community today -- if you need a couple more days, we can arrange that)
