Noted!
Self-voting is almost never legal on RYM anyway. so if that's even allowed here I'm sure I'll forget within the next ten minutes.

Re: Death and Taxes: An Economics Mafia
Wow, we're filling up quick - awesome! And great to see some new faces as well. Welcome!
If any of you (new or old) have any questions whatsoever, please don't hesitate to let llama or me know. We are here to serve. (And possibly to meet children, from what I'm reading.....)
Also, llama is pulling double duty here as a mod and a host. So if at any point during the game you have an issue with another player or with my hosting, please please please go to him to vent and/or get it resolved. If you have an issue with llama's hosting, I don't know who you should go to, but you can try him first. He's a pretty reasonable guy.

Normally speed games do not work with my work schedule, but given this one is 48/24, then I'm definitely in!
Of course, given the theme, I'd probably be in anyway.

Wait, it's possible to kill hosts in this game? wtfIf llama dies and Russti is still alive, we move to a proportional tax system and tax 30% of all earnings instead.

Sunday would indeed be great, although I'll be out of town part of the weekend.
Russ, you mean 19 players, not 17, right? If so, we need 6 more people (or 4 if it is indeed 17). Let's get this game happening!!!!
So awesome.

As an accountant in academia that always exhibited a high level of interest in economics, I just can't get over how awesomely fitting these roles are. I love them.
And of course Ludwig von Mises would get (perhaps) the most powerful non-role check civilian role.
