Amanuensis Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) @OrlokTsubodai and @Kipper you both have been nominated. Are either of you capable of participating? I would also nominate all of our moderators, but @Gamma Fiend has been gone for some time, @Metacognition seems busy lately, which leaves only @Alvron and Wilson actively running our community, the latter of which has already said she can not partake in the Championship this year. Alv, what about you? Are you capable of and interested in being our representative? And because I think we need more competition, I would also like to nominate @Jondesu and @randuir. While they may both be newer members of our family, I have personally been impressed with them since their very first games.

Jondesu Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 I appreciate that, Aman, but I'll need to decline. That's simply too much workload for me to keep up with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kipper Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 @AmanuensisI'd be interested, but I don't know where the details are about the game, and until I do, I have serious doubts about my activity level. I'll only be consistently available after exams in early May. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alv, what about you? Are you capable of and interested in being our representative? I am very interested but sadly I have to pass again this year. While it's likely I will have the time for the May match, I can't guarantee it. Thanks for the nomination though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlok Tsubodai Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 @Amanuensis, I'm flattered to be nominated. Whilst I could play, I'm not sure I'd be a brilliant representative. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeTess Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Thanks for the nomination, Aman. I've checked, and provided I don't end up in the qualifier starting April 24th(I'll be rather busy till the 26th), I do actually have time to participate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanuensis Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 So far it looks like the candidates are: Myself Kipper Lopen Orlok Rand Anyone else have someone they'd nominate? Herowannabe is also a great choice, although I know he's meant to run a game soon. @Herowannabe do you think you're capable of playing this year? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much work on my plate at the moment to take on a game that intense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thingyman Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 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!?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. Finally, to communities that haven't elected a representative yet: Remember that your deadline for electing a representative is April 23. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkness Ascendant Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 6 days and 7 nights... Now we must pick who shall fight Aman the king of tl;dr on the Shard Shall he cast walls beyond sight Should we pick him as our bard Randuir the swift, quickest of blight Newly cast, yet strong a card Should he be chosen as our light Orlok the fencer, as he cries en garde! Deep of thought and care I recite Should he be chosen to be starred --------------- That's who I can think of, I would pick El but she seems to be busy around this time. (I know Rand can't play but I couldn't help adding him). Hope you liked that lil bit at the end @Elbereth 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually do have time from may 1st to halfway through July, as I indicated earlier. Or was that a comment on my capabilities as a player . Also, have an upvote for the poem.

And you are correct, but I shall be explicit - I do not have time for this right now. Very much no. *shudders* I don't know that I'd ever have enough time to properly devote to the championships, given last year, but definitely not right now. I have no one new to nominate, but do agree that those suggested would make excellent representatives of our community. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There haven't been any new nominations for a while so it seems everyone has had their say. The nominees are: Aman Lopen Orlok Rand Everyone can vote for up to two nominees. If you would rather do it via poll, pension Wilson for only she has the power. She keeps all the good powers for herself.

Amanuensis Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 (edited) Given that Lopen will be co-GMing LG33 soon, I'm going to vote for Orlok with Rand as a back up (we need a representative and a replacement in case something unforeseen happens, just so the rest of you are aware). LG32 has 18 players left, IIRC, and it's still a couple weeks away from the first qualifier, so I think Orlok should be able to handle both GMing the tail end of his LG and starting up the competition (if he even gets put in the earliest available game). I'm mainly voting for him over Rand because he's been a member of our community longer, though I have no qualms with sending Rand first and having Orlok as his understudy. In regards to voting, I think everyone should vote twice, like I did above, with the first bolded and the second normal. The person with the most bold votes should be the representative while the player with the most votes total (bold and normal) should be the replacement. That makes sense, right?

Hemalurgic Headshot Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Okay, Aman and Rand. I didn't include Lopen because of what Aman said above.^^^ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elenion Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Aman & Orlok. Rand is an excellent player, but I think our representative should be a long-time member of SE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Droughtbringer Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Rand and Aman Aman is an amazing player, and I think that he would do well with just the entirety of what's going to be going on outside of here. Rand is also an amazing player, and although he is new he was able to adapt to this environment insanely fast, and I think that would serve him amazingly in the new environment that he would be put into. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkness Ascendant Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Aman would be an amazing choice, but truth be told, I see the mafia championships as a chance to learn something new, as Hael did. Aman doesn't need more power and skill Orlok Randuir. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
