I may drop to a replacement if this starts next week, sadly. I'm off to Paris on the 24th till the 4th of May so it would be a really bad time for me tbh.

Just do what I do and play exclusively on mobile. Even in Paris if you find any available WiFi you should be able to use your phone on airplane mode.

I ain’t gonna be posting all that much either, so at least people will be aware ahead of time of your inactivity for periods

I'm from Sweden, so actually my phone and internet work just fine in France too but I don't usually phone mafia. And I post a lot. I won't have time at all really and I'm no lurker. I'd be really pissed if I got mislynched because I couldn't post enough. If it starts this week, like tomorrow, that's another story. But missing the first 2 phases is really bad.

Welcome to my paranoia! I tend to word vomit myself and feel like if I don’t post on the same level as past performances it looks fishy. That’s obviously not the case, but if it happens once when you’re bad, people can cling to that.

This site is unforgiving to phone posters, but if you see what I’ve posted on GoC, I post exclusively thru phone because I’m usually driving on the move. Give it a try for a bit and you’ll start to get used to it..unless you have elephant thumbs and autocorrect every single wotd

But I also hope this game begins closer to the 4 May end.

You're welcome and encouraged to take part if you think it'll be plausible. If you suspect though that it'd interfere with the real-world tasks ahead, and/or that there'd be a high chance of replacement, then it may be best to resist the pull. Either way is good with me. :beer:

It's a tough call, because the next handful of months are going to be really busy, but I do want to play and could manage playing even if in a limited fashion. It doesn't help that my decision is sort of dependent on what my dissertation chair thinks of my next draft as well, but again, I've been feeling the mafia itch for quite some time and this seems like a cool setup and player list to jump back into with. I'll think about it over the next day and let you know for sure either way.

Alright, well, I've decided to sit this out after all. Sigh. It's alright though. I'll stick to my plan of getting back into mafia again after settling into the new job and such. I just really can't justify it until then even though I miss you all.

Have fun though! :D

You know what? Screw it. I'm changing my mind. I really want to play. I'm making good progress on the dissertation. Spring 2018 semester is almost over. Let's do this. I'm so in. :slick:

Obligatory pre-game slank warning: I won't be posting like a madman. I'll just have to play at a lower intensity level and restrict my game time to whenever I'm done with work each day. The longer day cycles will help here too; I don't think I could handle anything faster than 48/24 right now.

I promise I won't change my mind again. :p
