Hello, yes! Is being very good day for posting, no?

Hi all, stickup got me watching hockey and I have Eastside Hockey Manager on steam so I decided "Well I might as well do Mafia Hockey."

Picking a semi random team, I have decided to replace Arizona Coyotes with Mumbles Scumhunters. I'm gonna do a random draft to rebuild the league so I can't just look up "Who should I try to sign?"

Quote this post or PM me if you would like to be included, preferably with a position you would like to play.

I know nothing about hockey. I hope I do not get fired in the first season :ohdear:

Put me on defense, coach. The perfect blend of not having slapshots sent at my face and not needing to skate the entire rink.

This process is definitely not as friendly as it was in Football Manager, jeez. Here's what I'm looking at currently, based on the AI auto generating a depth chart for me



Goalies: Birdstrike (#1)

Defense: Hats (#1), Poque (#2), Keane (#3), Asiina (#4)

Left Wingers:edit Pinterest Mom (#1) not pictured, Podima (#2)

Centers: Fisk (#1), Stickup (#2), Wren (#3)

Right Wingers: Moat (#1)

Podima you said you wanted to be a physical player last night and defense got full quick (and hats is a finesse defense) so I put you as the #2 LW because he is a hot prospect and also a physical player. Moat you would have been the 4th center so I put you as a RW that can also play center, although based on this depth chart that probably won't happen.

If anyone would like to be in a different position or anyone else would like to join, please let me know!

the player list looks really strong so far, don't you want to be part of this? I've also started working on some of the role PMs so maybe it'll actually start a reasonable time after it fills! wouldn't that be neat!

there is only one hell:
the one we live in now


On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them, “They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don’t know where they put him.” So Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb. They both ran, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and arrived at the tomb first; he bent down and saw the burial cloths there, but did not go in. When Simon Peter arrived after him, he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths there, and the cloth that had covered his head, not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place. Then the other disciple also went in, the one who had arrived at the tomb first, and he saw and believed.


HAPPY EASTER


May each of you, regardless of faith, have a truly blessed day. God has conquered death itself for his love for us. Eat bread, and drink wine and milk! Rejoice, and be glad.

mario maker 3ds doesn't have most of the online sharing features so is kinda garbo

but you should know if you'd rather play a very good waifu strategy rpg or a very good mario kart that's not a decision anyone else can make for you

I ended up getting Awakening. Biting the bullet, despite having trouble getting into these games due to Anime plots. Now do I refrain from getting all the DLC...

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.mafiauniverse.com/forums/threads/7692-Season-4-The-Time-Is-Now%21?p=1070949&viewfull=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 (Lumpen), 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.

(by dbd)

from the dude who brought you failed (but fun) concept games "the death of cecilia" and the "bodega murder mystery" but also the triumph of crime scene last year~

  • starting some time in may, has been in the works for almost a year now off and on! i'd like this to grow into a potential series of games (hopefully).
  • detective teams of two scour environments, interview suspects, and flirt with danger, death and bamboozling from detectives and suspects alike with the objective of looking for clues, analyzing them, and trying to piece everything together to catch a murderer. (exact specifications will be given in thread, but trust me, it will be tough to solve).
  • there may or may not be rogue detectives helping the suspect!
  • there will be a few really cool mechanics in this game that i won't reveal yet.
  • you can pre-sign up, but you can also wait for the thread to be posted in a month. just PM me if you have any interest.
  • there are three sorts of roles you're able to sign up for. detective team roles (of 2), suspect roles (1), and forensics/other roles (coroner, etc). the latter is for people who want to be involved but don't have to be as active (there will be only a limited amount of these roles).

let's have a fun!

I'm too busy to play right now but the thread has been dead as poo poo and DBD bringing up a not-mafia game and being met with cries of "yes! I shall play this, for it is not the Devil's Mafia!" made me confused. But carry on, angry goons, carry on.
