I miss mafia but I cannot ever commit to ten posts a day. I will continue to watch you all creepily. (Thank you for some of the best entertainment out there! :3:)

To be fair, most of those requirements are 10 posts per *game day* not 24 hour period. Most of our game days are 48 hours, if that makes any difference.

The "10 posts a day" requirement is a good rule of thumb. However, if someone posts a large case on a single player for one game day, how is that not better than players who post 10 garbage posts?

It is much better. I've seen bowmore and others literally post just to get above an arbitrary cut line. I'd rather have content than "I'm just here so I don't get fined lynched.

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. It will feature 4 former winners.

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 want to comment on the game please do it on Discord, we have a channel set up there that Max can't see. Let's help Thingyman keep external influences out of their game as much as possible!

Had a dream that I found some online community dedicated to sandwolf where users would largely try to find a way to recontextualize “classic” sandwolf posts. It was a few hundred people and sandwolf was not aware of it. Common jokes included something about “sandwolf smokescreen” which I didn’t understand the context of.

OK old timers.

Is there any way to pinpoint the first game? Who started all this happening on SA?

Obviously soju (...was that his username) was the one who got votefinder up and functioning, but we had games before that. Where did this community come from?

I remember playing some terrible rapidfire games in BYOB where I was messaging with my scum team member on AIM about what we wanted to do but there was not a ton of automatic accounting at all and it was kind of a mess.

Who here has memories of first games that aren't recorded in votefinder? It would be fun to build a history of our community, I think. Many of us have been playing this stupid game for more than 10 years.

KCW ran some threads in GBS. They quickly filled and were terrible. There was enough interest games moved to TG and eventually the game room because we had too many threads.

Eventually games got good once Tom Tucker started creating them.

It's Soru who started votefinder. Speaking of which, his quantum leap game was great.

I played for a couple years before votefinder was around, there's a few games I've been meaning to track down. My Fables and Gotham Central games were some of the first I ran, I'd like to read those again. Slenderman mafia back in 2010(?) was where I first started talking to my current partner, I think I still have those aim logs saved somewhere.

Oh! And the Tao Jones game, something Black Sea? That was a great game. Tao was my favorite mod back in the day, they had so many wonderful setups, like Everyone is Richard Nixon Mafia.
