I doubt Vox would ever have the time for this but id really like to see how he would perform in this environment. He's like never lynched and always copped/ NKed.
I've been told killjoy has organized the scribe a account to keep tabs on everyone on the hosting list at the moment. I haven't checked it myself yet, but if we have *anyone* on the list who is ready to go, or anyone off the list for that matter, I'm happy to greenlight them.

How often is HP checking in here? Seems like it's been a while since she's posted. Maybe let another sign up of a different type of game fire and when she gets the message, see if she'd be willing to go next?

The finale, which I will be in, is scheduled for August 3rd.
Root for me or boo me. I still feel bad I'm the reason your guy got eliminated from game 3 so quickly. I'll do my best to at least justify my presence there and give Iso and MTGS a shout-out.

I can vouch for the sweetness of the site. Signed myself up the other day. Very slick design. The ISO button alone was game changing for me... it brought up the posts in CHRONOLOGICAL order! Not reverse.
Problem is that I doubt the pacing of the games is similar to what we have here. Not to mention I have grown (unfortunately at times) attached to the playerbase here on MTGS. So unless we did some sort of one-of game over there once in a while, I will be sticking here.

As a staff member (only unstaffed to play in the finale) I can say this:
I didn't design the site at all, but I looooooooooooooooooooooooooove the ISO function HER MER GERD
And the rest of the site functionality is indeed top notch
I have suggestions but I'll put them in a suggestion box at this point. Site truly is the best place to go right now that I can see. I'd love to steal a couple elements from other sites and add their distinctiveness to our own.
But we will also be hosting games with longer day and night periods for folks just like you.
In fact, I will be hosting a game with longer periods and I'd like to invite several of you folks there personally but if you guys think you can play and not skip phases or sub out I would welcome all.
It won't be a month per day or anything crazy like that just... manageable for your standards.

I truly do enjoy watching how the iso functions. I will be up late many a night pushing that button for as long as it takes to give me satisfaction, and in the end, I feel like it would help me understand what's going on between us better.
That's so bad that's like a single entendre and I'm sorry I even wrote it, but I'm too lazy not to post this.
Whatever that attachment is isn't working, Thingy.
Also, though I haven't been back around nearly enough to have a good idea for nomming any sort of rep, I'm definitely looking forward to watching this thing this year. This faster pace is more what I'm used to, having played the lion's share of my games either face to face or on epicmafia.

Azrael, Iso, Cyan, Sir Chris, Gentleman Johnny are my top picks.
DCIII and Voxxicus too but they are on breaks.
Seppel and Megiddo are also very good, but I think they would get quickly (mis)lynched due to their playstyle. Maybe Iso too, he already proved that last year.
I know Cyan didn't like the style.
Iso played last year and I feel we should send different people.
Seppel I love but mislynching him would probably happen...
Chris is ineligible...
Azrael previously did not have the time.
I feel Gentleman Johnny would be my top pick. I think he has a great handle on his game right now. Oh and just because I listed all those other people doesn't mean that GJ is my sixth pick... just listing those relevant reasons for others not wanting to do it.
The great thing is that we have a lot of awesomeness to choose from.
In fairness, I was transparently townie in that game and Pizza took the paranoia bait.
I'll second a nomination for Xyre, if he has the time/commitment ability. I would also be in favor of Az - again, if he has the ability. I know he had to bow out last year due to time issues.

Game 3 of season 2 definitely too short a showing for Iso. Would love to see him sent again.
And there are several other names I'd like to see. You want to have the time to invest, and you want to be able to cope with the clashing styles you'll meet. How well can you handle both adversity and diversity? Can you bluff people who don't know what your usual town tells are? Can you avoid being lynched by people who have no idea what your scum game is? Can you shoot the right people at night? Many skills are needed.
Or you could click buttons and hope for miracles, just like any other game.
When does the next tournament kick off? At the moment, I'd be hesitant to sign on, but if it's after the trial I have scheduled for April 12th, I might be able to put my hat in the ring.
EDIT: Hmm, April 25th. If things stay calm, I might be available. But again, if I got the nod, we'd need good alternates in case things get busy on me. It's feast or famine right now.
I think the key issue is finding someone who can cope with the comparatively insanely short days, since they'd need to be online an awful lot.
It's an extreme difference. When I played on here last year, I found it very very challenging to adapt to the different circumstances, and I'm used to 24 hour phases and week-long phases both.
You guys are on one extreme end, and this tournament is the other extreme. And for that extreme, it's also on the extreme edge of competitiveness and activity levels. I think it would be difficult to overstate the vast differences here between a game on here and a game in this tournament.
It would be comparable to say that the difference is as extreme as the difference between a regular forum mafia game and a game of mafia played over an instant messenger client or a video chat. The style and approach is going to be that great.
Candidate needs to be downright Borg-ian in their ability to assimilate and adapt. Both Iso and Sir Chris did well with adapting to the fast phases, at the very least.
You mean we can't make fun of them until the game is over?

Either way, we're all gonna burn
So, the game is over now. Yeah, I don't understand how you got mislynched either. It was a very silly wagon.
*hangs head in shame*
We still got em, boys.
Hi everyone! Sorry for that lynch. Worst decision I made that game.
Sad face no excuses.

The GJ way path to no lynching:
Could just come and play a regular game on our site. There's one in sign-ups almost constantly and they fill pretty quickly.
I'd join if there were plenty of MTGS peeps
