The Syndicate

Hello, Syndicateers!

I am pleased to announce that we have been invited back to the annual Mafia Championship hosted by Thingyman!

Now it's Season 4! If you aren't quite aware of what this is or you want to discuss it with your fellow members, consult the Mafia Championship S4 Discussion Thread for details and discussion.

If you want to commit as a possible player on behalf of The Syndicate, please PM me, and do so by 10:00AM Eastern on Tuesday, April 11th. We need a quick turnaround, so please get me a decision by then. If you have not PMed me by that time, then you will not be eligible to play.

Note that it will be a very intense time commitment to play in the Mafia Championship, so be aware of your commitments and schedule before nominating yourself as a potential nominee. I also highly recommend all prospective players to read the content spoilerized below where Thingyman explains how the tournament will progress before committing.

A list of the players that commit to me will thereafter be made public so that all of us can vote on the player we want to represent The Syndicate via secret ballot. The player with the highest weighted voting score will be sent to Mafia Universe to play the tournament. This voting process will last roughly 6 days so that we can get Thingyman our nominee by Monday, April 17th at the latest. More details regarding this stage will be provided when the nominees are made public.

Thanks for your prompt attention! I am very thankful to Thingyman for extending an invitation to us again, and I hope we can continue the completely kickass precedent set by Golden last year.

Here is information regarding the Championship courtesy of Thingyman. Please read if you are interested.

The mountainous setup is glorious. To hell with roles, there is only the hunt and the evasion of the hunt. Good luck.

I hope some of you volunteer. There are so many excellent players here who could be great representatives.

Members of The Syndicate, I am pleased to present... your nominees for the Mafia Championship Season 4!
To cast your vote, PM me with your preference order of all five nominees. However, if you really do not want to send a ranking of all five candidates, you may submit anywhere from one to four. Please clearly indicate your exact preference order, otherwise your submission will be invalid and not counted.

I will be awarding weighted points as follows: 5 for highest preference, 4 for second highest preference, 3 for third, 2 for fourth, and 1 for fifth (last). If you send less than five names, then this order will still be followed but instead any name you do not submit will receive 0 votes. The nominee who receives the highest weighted accumulation of votes will be sent as our representative!

You have until Monday, April 17th at 10:00AM Eastern to send in your votes.

I am incredibly excited that we once again have the opportunity to send someone on behalf of our community at this gathering of mafia's best and brightest, and very much look forward to seeing the player that our community has awarded with that honor.

Thank you all for your continued dedication to our site!
