A Heist

Game Size: N/A
Game Start Time: Around March 26th (Opening Day)

You don't need to know anything about baseball to play this game, though a little baseball knowledge wouldn't hurt for flavor. Major League Baseball's regular season officially kicks off March 26th, and I wanted to celebrate that with a thematic mafia game. As long as we have enough people on board by the time the season is getting started, we'll get this game underway. It will be a straightforward game following Heist format. Should be a quick and painless experience, much like a real baseball game!

I think there's a typo, the Rob Manfred option should read "BURN IN BASEBALL HELL"

It doesn't mean anything, it's just a bunch of letters.

Well Opening Day was scheduled for March 26th. That’s an excessively early date anyway.

A delayed season is all but official now. If people want to play a mafia game, I can start this whenever regardless of whether real baseball games are happening.

Baseball needs a shorter season anyway.

I don't even know the rules of baseball. I'm way too ghey and European.

But I do enjoy simple mafia games. ^^

There's balls and long wooden things and ass slapping and outing one another.

I'm sure you'll find something.

I know nothing about the game's rules but looks like it is fun. But i will play for sure when I know if I have time when the game start is near.

You can automatically put me in the last slot available and ping me via Discord if the game don't starts earlier than a month from now on.

Posted: **Tue Mar 24, 2020 11:04 am**

I am familiar with the rules of baseball.

When is a good time? I can start this whenever, and there is no limit on the number of players. I’ll take however many people sign up.

Question is for everyone who’s interested. This game can happen whenever. The more the merrier.

I'm in queerantine until after Easter, at the very least, so I have all the time in the world.

I’m absolutely flexible for the foreseeable future until perhaps late May but hopefully that won’t apply.

Posted: **Tue Mar 24, 2020 5:50 pm**

I’m good whenever

Posted: **Tue Mar 24, 2020 5:51 pm**

5 (or 6) is doable as a micro-game, but I don't intend to start this right away. If we could get a few more (9 would be a splendid floor) in the coming days then we can get to playing ball fairly soon.

I want to play, except i inned in games starting in 6 and 15 of April. I can play with the second game another one but the first is the MU bastard mash and i wish to not go multitabling with a 12/12 running.

So the closest best time for me is the half of April, few days before Easter who is for me in 18th of April.

I'm planning to have this game running as soon as possible. It won't be too big either.

For 48/24 I'm in, thread opened at night was scary when I was scum but you are not playing so maybe maybe I can play with night thread open too ^^

Please don't make me the Yankees or the Braves, K? Or the Designated Hitter, if that's how the roles go, lol.

If I were to include the Yankees, they'd be the mafia.

Posted: **Thu Mar 26, 2020 5:34 pm**

Also we're one player away from my ideal minimum. If we can get that I'll start this in a couple days regardless of whether or not anyone else signs up.

Yes, I am, way back. I started going to Mets games with my Grandpa when I was maybe 4 or 5. I grew up at Shea Stadium. Mets>Cubs>Any National League Team (except the Braves)> Mariners & Twins> Meh. I tried to hard as a kid to be good at playing softball or baseball, and I was the suck. But my husband and I bonded over baseball when we first met, even though he,like my Mom, was a Yankees fan.

And I would root for, well, pretty much anyone before I would root for the Yankees.

Posted: **Fri Mar 27, 2020 6:35 am**

Ugh, I feel your pain. Wife does not like baseball, but I, a lifelong Red Sox fan, have to pretend her family being 2009 yankee fans is the same thing every time we see them.

So painful.

Posted: **Fri Mar 27, 2020 11:47 am**

The Red Sox won the World Series a couple months after I moved from Massachusetts to New York. It was delightful.

Posted: **Fri Mar 27, 2020 8:04 pm**

I am so fucking stoked for this to start.

Posted: **Fri Mar 27, 2020 11:49 pm**

Yeah!

Posted: **Sat Mar 28, 2020 12:06 am**

I’ll probably send out role cards tomorrow evening. But if anyone else wants to hop in before then, go right ahead.
