Team Mafia 2023 Pre-Registration

Team Mafia 2023 Pre-Registration!


I am happy to announce the return of Team Mafia this year! You may be asking yourself "what is Team Mafia?" Team Mafia is a bi-yearly site-wide event (every 2 years) that sees players form teams to play games of mafia together! Each team member will play in a game but also share a Private Topic with the rest of their team so that they can work together to play each game.

Full rules and details will be released later this month. We anticipate starting in March and finishing by the end of May.

This is the pre-registration topic. We want an idea of what the head count might be so we can design games and set team limits. In years past we have done 18 teams of 4 players and struggled to fill player slots and cover replacements. We anticipate we might need to have less player slots this year than in years' past.

Please pre-register if:


You definitely know you want to play.

You are interested in playing depending on conditions personal to you.

Please don't pre-register if you don't plan on playing.

Please share this pre-registration with your friends and potential teammates so that we can have an accurate idea of how many players to expect.

This is not the final sign-up thread.
Pre-registration does not commit you to participating, feel free to reply if you want to play but are unsure.
You will not be picking teams or committing to the event at this time.

I did want to note as I stealth edited the post to add that pre-registering by replying to this thread doesn't mean you have to commit to playing right this moment. Please post your interest even if you are unsure whether you could play come March.

I'm just doing a head count, not making lists of people who are definitely playing vs interested vs not interested.

That's part of the purpose of pre-registration. We could do as few a 3-player teams depending on the head count. We're trying to find out what number of teams and how many players per team is best.

We haven't made any decisions on that stuff but I don't see why not.

We'll do our best as always but it's a site wide event so the less blacklisting the better.

I know people are thinking about teams, we are considering a format with 3-player teams so keep that in mind as you think about who you want to play with.

Also if anyone has some marketing skills, especially email marketing, or even professional writing skills, please reach out to me. We plan on sending an email out to all former players about the recent site upgrade and Team Mafia.

My rough plan is to take the head count from this thread and double it.

I think there is sufficient enough interest to plan for 4-member teams. We will have a mechanism to put teamless players into teams when the time comes. Take it from a former TM winner, sometimes those are the best teams.
