Night and Day Mafia Signups (Game over!)

[ThinkBig]

Because you're her hydra partner.

Not in this game

[Titus]

I think Titus is in the right here. She signed up first and should be honored first.

Because you're her hydra partner.

Titus has /in'd 5 out of the 6 last large games, and

replaced into the large game I was playing.

It's not fair for me to have to wait 6 months to play a large game. As soon as both KH and Night and Day opened signups, she was already pre-in or first to /in,

it should not be a matter of who joined first.

As well, a lot of you are familiar with and like Titus, and I have no problem with playing with Titus if she wants to remain. I am focused on the game, not on personal issues. For example, in our last large where she replaced in, I could have vigged her many times but I didn't, I chose to vig scum. I always place the win condition as priority over any personal matters.

The large theme I subbed into was anonymous.

As far as I am concerned, the mods should have done much worse to you.

You treat players like garbage. I am open to trying again in 6 months to a year if I see you be nice to players you view as less skilled. Your conduct is why you are in this position.

I'm. Not. Playing. With. ABR.

You called me a son of a bitch in this game, please leave my mother out of mafia games...?

[ThinkBig]

Guys this is getting fucking ridiculous and it's only the signup thread! Get over yourselves and let mastina handle it. I'd hate to get banned or see anyone else get banned. Take this out of the signup thread.

[Bulbazak]

After what you did to Mollie in Team Mafia and after the crap you put me through in Mafiaception, I'd prefer not to see you in a mafia game again for a long while. You're not at Katsuki levels where I'd just plain refuse to play with you if it came down to it, but you're close.

[mastina]

Everyone. Silence. Now.
I'm not going to lock the signups thread right now (even though my gut tells me that's what I should do right now).
But I am going to stomp my foot down.

At this very moment, I am not letting Albert B. Rampage into the game.
This is not a final decision.
I do not have the time/capacity/capability to, right now, as of this moment, give you a decisive answer one way or another.
When I have the time, I intend to mediate the issue and explain fully and entirely exactly what I am going to do.

I don't have that right now (honestly as-is I'm risking being late for a test), so I can't give you what you want right now.
I do promise you that I will give a thorough lookover on the issue when I have the amount of time I need to make the call.

So let's continue with the signups.
I'm a mod who wants to trust in humanity a little bit--so don't make me feel my faith was misplaced.
The topic will remain open.

If you want to discuss the subject further, bring arguments to MY inbox, via PM.
I will take them into account when I am able to.

Good luck on your test mastina!!!

Mastina, feel free to add me to the replacement queue. Not sure what my availability will be over the next month-plus, but I'll at least try and keep an on and off eye on the game.

Mastina, why are we bolded in your OP?

[mastina]

Good luck on your test mastina!!!

I'm not the testee, I'm the tester.
Well, assistant tester anyway.

Mastina, feel free to add me to the replacement queue. Not sure what my availability will be over the next month-plus, but I'll at least try and keep an on and off eye on the game.

Mkay, have done!

Mastina, why are we bolded in your OP?

At the time I didn't see you as a confirm because you hadn't confirmed in here, but I'm counting this as a confirmation.

[Aristophanes]

Oh lol, we totally forgot to didn't we! XD

And that's pretty cool! I hope you never have to kick anyone out while testing!!

[79 CE]

Confirming yay! <3

Final answer:

I have a long speech prepared if you want to know the details behind it, but ultimately, in spite of me wanting to find a way which would work, I couldn't find anything fair.

If ABR was let in with caveats attached, it wouldn't be fair to him--they'd be too restrictive.
If ABR was let in without caveats attached, it wouldn't be fair to everyone else who voiced their displeasure at his joining of the game.

I have offered him a reserved spot in my next large game if he's interested in that as compensation, but I can't in good conscience let him into the game. If I placed restrictions on him, he'd either be strangled by said restrictions or upon breaking them be ejected from the game; if I didn't place restrictions on him, then I simply don't think the game I'd run would be a fun one. Regardless of which of the three would happen, no matter what, it simply wouldn't be fair.

And of the "not fair" options I had on the table, the one which overall felt the most fair to me was to offer ABR a spot in my

next

Large Theme but not to accept his in for this one. My apologies if this is not a solution you're happy with. It's the best I could come up with.

/In. This seems interesting, and reminds me of Light and Darkness.

Speaking of that game, if Vedith is Town I hope they don't forget their Role PM.

[Gamma Emerald]

LOL that's what I thought of too
