Oldy Mafia 2

CrashTextDummie · Post Post #6 (isolation #0) » Sat May 03, 2014 1:57 pm

Last Oldy mafia was predominantly 2006 and older. Ythill I believe was the only original player with a 2007 join date.

I remember you scumlurking through the entire game, Poro. Do you intend to actually play this time?

Or would you be modding?

I also remember UT tactically replacing out as scum and I still hate him a little for that.

Generally interested.

I misremembered. Oldy Mafia 1 happened in 2010 and featured several people with join date 2007.

2009 seems an appropriate cut off with a decent shot at getting a large together.

EDIT: Though I suppose there's still enough people around from that era that the game wouldn't feel very special. The main draw of the original for me was that quite a few inactive old timers came back for it.

If this is happening and I'm a part of it, I only have one request in terms of set-up, and that is for it to be suitably old school. No neighbors, ninjas, fruit vendors, etc.

No hydras either.

Resurrection wish list:
Pooky
LML
Thok
Ibaesha
Talitha
Seol
mathcam
Vismaior
Save the Dragons
Kelly Chen
BabyJesus
MBF
Dragon Phoenix
MeMe
Spectrumvoid
Stoofer
Zindaras
al_kohaulec
Pablito
Adele

If you're not on this list, you were in the first Oldy Mafia (MBL, Glork, Yos, etc.) or I've seen you recently enough that you're not in need of resurrection (Thesp, etc.) or I've shamefully forgotten about you, but needless to say I'd be thrilled to play with you again.

Go big I say. Get a couple of blockbuster comebacks and I figure the rest of the oldies will get out of hibernation and flock to this thread.

You could have mass PMed my resurrection wishlist while you were at it.

This is shaping up to be quite a game!

Oh come on, Ether. You know you want to play in this game. You did win the last one for us in endgame!

Also, apologies for forgetting VitR, indeed an amazing vet. But really, there are a lot of people I could have wished for. Erg0, GreenLiquid, Norinel, Brian McQueso, etc. The list is endless.

Just PMed your entire wish list. I'm not holding my breath, but anybody we get out of there would be great.

<3<3<3

I'm a lazy bastard and should have done it myself, but thanks much!

And look, already a smashing success! OMG LML! OMG Zindy! Welcome back!

Zindaras, standard deadlines are shorter these days, 2-3 weeks. I'm fine with going for short deadlines in the interest of keeping the game from becoming a 100+ page monster anyway. By the looks of it, we're going for another large, i.e. 20ish people.

EDIT: OMG Thesp!

Could you drop him a note in case PMs don't reach him anymore?

Heya CES, StD, Green Crayons, Yos! How much more awesome can this player list get?

PJ is in. Glork is in. VitR is (sneakily) in. Come on you maybes, this player list is irresistible.

I mean, any game with DG, PJ, and Glork is a game I want in on. Then again, I usually hate games larger than 15 players. I'm so conflicted.

Heya MBF, how come you always manage to be late to these things?

I empathize with people who worry about the size of the game, but breaking it up into smaller games kind of goes against the spirit of the idea. I want to play with

all

of you again!

Game length could be tweaked on the set-up end, i.e. by making it multi-faction and openly declaring it as such.

Sadly, I simply don't think I can manage to put enough time in it, especially with the way my life is right now, and not for the number of months this game would call for. I'm sorry. Maybe next time.

Aw.

Understandable though and it was nevertheless a pleasure to see you again around these parts!
