Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
I'm going to want to kill myself if this starts soon, since I'd be hosting a full game of my own and playing a complicated, intricate boo game. But...c'mon, man! How can I pass up a boo game?!
Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
It's been a while since I played mafia (two years actually, so that means I can play the rookie card during this game right?) but this sounds really awesome and I've been wanting to play again for a while now, I'm in!

Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
I'll sign on as a sub for this one if that's cool?
Idk how much time I'd have to devote to a full game asap. But replacements seem to be needed more and more all the time.

Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
I'll try it although I probably shouldn't. I hope I can keep up! I'm not used to playing so many games at once anymore.

I'll play, but expect a lot of questions from me during the game. MP knows how stupid I can be when it's not a classic Mafia game.

Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
I am having to back out. While I do love a boo game I just do not have the time to devote to such an intricate game with so much to remember.
I hope everyone has a fantastic time playing bc boo does make great memorable games.

He received more than twice as many votes as any other candidate running. I think the point remains valid.

Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
Without getting into an intense debate about the rise and fall of totalitarian powers, it's pretty clear that the Nazi party used heavy amounts of German history... the Nazi party used a lot of violence and intimidation methods to gain support. They set fire to the Reichstag for Christ's sake! In addition, Hitler was appointed Chancellor in 1933 by the President of Germany. The Nazi party had the most seats, but lacked a majority. They only took power because other parties failed to unite against them. Hitler made himself dictator through the Enabling Act-- something that passed the Reichstag with Nazi soldiers literally about to storm the building.thellama73 wrote:He received more than twice as many votes as any other candidate running.

Nothing about Hitler's rise to power was democratic. Democracy is by no means perfect, but it also did not contribute to the rise of Hitler.

Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
Unless you consider the majority of France's population wanted retribution against Germany for WWI and that put pressure on the talks in Versailles to be excessively punitive to Germany... because that was a huge part of Hitler's rise to power.Dom wrote:Without getting into an intense debate about the rise and fall of totalitarian powers, it's pretty clear that the Nazi party used heavy amounts of German history... the Nazi party used a lot of violence and intimidation methods to gain support.

Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
Did more than 17 million people vote for Hitler to be Chancellor or didn't they? I rest my case. :P

Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
No.. they did not. Hitler received no votes for Chancellor because Hindenburg appointed him to be the Chancellor. This gave him quite a bit of power in addition to his paramilitary forces he had recruited since 1923. As soon as Hitler became Chancellor he called for the dissolving the Reichstag and new elections. In addition, his paramilitary forces used violence against competitors in the elections of 1933. After the Reichstag fire, Hitler requested that he be able to use parts of Article 48 of the Weimar Constitution to restrict civil liberties and use force to suppress opposition. He did so. The Communist party had, effectively, no chance of winning any real power in the election-- not because of their policy being unpopular, but because the Nazi Party had essentially banned them (which they later did the day after the election). The violence and intimidation used heavily impacted what candidates could be voted for and were voted for.thellama73 wrote:Did more than 17 million people vote for Hitler to be Chancellor or didn't they? I rest my case. :P
Yes, the Nazi party received 17 million votes in the election of 1933. However, Hitler was already Chancellor when it happened. Hitler had total control of many facets of Germany at that point. He had a small army at his disposal. The people of Germany were hardly free to choose a party.
This is a criticism of a parliamentary republic, not a democracy. The elections were hardly free and fair. I don't see how you can credit Hitler's rise to power to democracy in Germany.
Not that I'm an advocate for a strict democracy-- just saying.

Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
I'm not crediting Hitler's rise to power to democracy, I'm saying that he was able to rise to power legally within a system that was more or less democratic, insofar as people could vote for their representation. The point is that people always act as though allowing the people to vote someone insures against tyrants, when this is manifestly not the case. Americans have been told for decades that we have to bring democracy to the Middle East as if that will suddenly eliminate oppression and violence. But I digress.

Re: Monopoly Mafia Sign Ups
I think with the biggest mafia downtime season approaching (AKA the holiday season), as well as the insanely active Doctor Who game, and Zelda just starting might have something to do with it.
Nonetheless, I agree, TH. Let's try to regain some momentum here! Only 10 players, right?
