I'm not sure what the rush is.  Why not let XX start first?

It's surprising that we got so many newbies, and I'd love to cater to their schedules if possible.

No rush, other than a dearth of games currently.

But really, this is for the newbies, not the rest.  I think some of them are without games (raerae, sudgy) or have few games ongoing (liopoil, mcmc, Jimmmmm), and one is brand new (my friend--two if mail-mi returns).  So I thought they'd like in on the action.

If they chime in with "wait, not next week!", then not next week.

Separately, if Jimmmmm's was close to filling, we could wait, but to the detriment of the newbies waiting, I think.  The idea floated by Ozle was a perma-open sign up for newbies that just auto-starts when full, but I don't think we'll get to nine newbies, so this was sort of the compromise.

But hey, anyone in the game is free to ask for it to be postponed.

Early or mid/late-week next week?  This is totally selfish but I'd like a tiny break.  Plus lio and mcmc and others (?) are still alive in DS9 and we all know that's crazy with a capital Q.  What are everybody else's thoughts and feelings?

I was thinking PMs on Monday, game start on Wednesday.  Or something like that.

I feel like the newer newbies should have more say than I do.

That game is, in fact, tough.

This one I promise will be easier for everyone.  It can wait a week, no problem.

I'll be fine, as long as it isn't in the next couple days (which it doesn't seem to be heading to) (and I would be fine, it's just I would be gone for a bit).

I think some of them are without games (raerae, sudgy)

I've decided only one game at a time (especially at the beginning).  I know people do more, but I don't want to overcommit, and I want to be safe.

I currently imagine mail-mi wearing a dark trenchcoat and a bowler hat, hunched over a bit, toothpick in his mouth, holding a gun in his pocket.  One bead of sweat trickling down his nose.

is this getting big enough to have 2 newbie games going? Perhaps start one now with people that are ready and start the next a little bit after? I don't know. Just a thought. I--or someone else--could run the other one if you wanted to play in it.

Or do we want a game with only newbies? Both are good with me, just throwing out options.

I think a full newbie game would be entertaining to watch, and hopefully fun to play.

the OP now has 11 players listed: has it been expanded to be an 11 player game or is it just to be able to list the veterans who have signed up but might not be able to play?

I agree... I guess the question is for the newbies... would they rather play with some vets or with all new playes? If they want to play with vets, then I suggest breaking it up and reqruiting a few more vets and starting them both at the same time... Robz I guess could even be in both if he wanted.

It might be fun to just have this be an ALL newbie game I guess.

While this is my first time playing mafia on a forum, it isn't my first time playing mafia.  (I'm sure this is the case for a few other's, too.)  So it won't be like a complete newbie game.

Just keeping a running list.  The game is 9 players.

I plan to send PMs tomorrow and start the game on Thursday.  Is that okay with people?
