Hehe, oh well, it was a thought.

Unfortunately the same applies to me.

Well Bah...BAH I SAY!

Signups for #12 are open now, but I want remind everyone that it should ideally be newbies-only.

Joe's game was put on hold for now, but it's most certainly not dead.

Put me on the backup list. Don't want to post in the actual signup thread for fear of putting off newbies. >_>

Okay, I'm officially giving up. I don't know what the hell we are doing wrong, all I know is that I'm out of ideas. GOG Forum Mafia is dead.

I don't understand why there are so few people willing to play. Mafia 1 had no trouble getting 12 players if I recall correctly.

Filled up in three days.

Exactly! Perhaps there's been some change in the forum demographics caused by some of the more recent changes to GOG.

I honestly don't know what's going on. I think part of the problem could be that some people are conditioned by now to simply ignore any threads with "mafia" in the title -- we've been spamming General discussion for a long time now, for lack of a better outlet. Other than that, I just don't know.

And it's not just #12 -- I'm getting incredibly tired of #11, too. There's a lot of material for discussion out there, and like three or four people discussing it. That probably isn't very good advertising, either, and I really feel there's nothing else I could do for it. I feel I've tried hard enough.

=(

Also =( I'm new and looking forward to playing, but at this point it seems like it might not even get off the ground.

5 new players in a 12 player game is a good start

Maybe fill it with the rest of us and generate some interest with an active game being played

Yeah, that's probably a good idea. Especially since 12 is supposed to be simpler than some of the latest ones, so it might help draw in new people afraid of the complexity.

Hmmmm, I have a question, and I'm really bringing this up because I want to see, well, if the players and the people who have modded think something like this would fly. As far as a game idea, I don't have one, but what about a game with, while not, deep flavour, just things that might end up feeling, more detailish of the things going on. Like, a player who was roleblocked might be found, say, unconcious in a bush, or maybe something more subtle...I'm not sure how to flesh it out exactly...
