Given that nobody has nominated themselves yet, except perhaps Timbo, the selection procedure may be a moot point.

I'd hydra but since that isn't an option I'm probably out. If no one else is interested in going I would do my best to keep up.

I like the idea of people who are interested in going volunteering then we vote that list.

I'll do it. But ONLY if there's turtle sex involved... If there isn't: no thanks. I would nominate my buddy starseed as well.

Like GirlySport's game, I wouldn't be able to commit the time.

I'd nominate HockeyGuy15 though (among many others).

So far, GGG and Oling have said they wouldn't be able to participate. It would be good to see what others who have been mentioned would say about participating as well.

- Mrkajz
- Squiggs
- HG15
- Starseed

Anyone else?

For me, I don't think I could make that time commitment either. 500 posts in 24 hours is massive to just read, let alone try to analyze and provide insight. Couple that with the fact that I am yet to win a mafia game, and I'm not sure I'd be a great candidate.

Most of them are of course short posts, and that pace won't hold for the entire game, but the first few days will probably be active, yeah

Well, we should decide to pass on this by the end of the day Friday unless someone comes up at the last minute who would like to play!

You guys can have a few more days.

If anyone is considering it and not going for it because they don't think they're skilled enough, I would say don't worry about that. This is mostly about having fun and building bonds between communities.

Yeah hopefully he wants to, he'd be our best ambassador, imo.

Personally I'd love to do it, but can't realistically commit the time.

I also think Rathji, GPMatt, Drury18, Devo22, and East Coast Flame would all be solid choices. I'd probably give the nod to squiggs as the runner up in the most recent game if he's interested.

Thank you for the support and the PMs. I had missed this thread when it was posted. Unfortunately I cannot enter this year. Hopefully I can participate next year, when my job will be different. Good luck GGG.

Hi guys

You may already be up to date on this, but I thought I'd pop in with new information about your representative.

They have been been scheduled for the game below.

Game 7 - June 6 (72/24 phases, American deadlines)
Azrael (MTG Salvation)
Cobalt (Gay Teen Forum)
Colby11 (The Giraffe Boards)
fdas (Art of Problem Solving)
GGG (Calgarypuck Forums)
Gorf (Smashboards)
heuristically_alone (xkcd)
Kennigit (CivFanatics)
Khris Kruel (Something Awful)
Leelou (JetNation)
Legato Endless (Giant in the Playground)
MightySpeck (Warlight)
Newcomb (Dark Lord Potter)
SilverKeith (MafiaLandia)
Stanari (Flight Rising)
tmofer.mashiro (Kaskus)
yogsloth (GOG)

The game is taking place on Mafia Universe. You can find the specific subforum dedicated to the championship here: http://www.mafiauniverse.com/forums/...mpionship-2016

I want to talk about and spectate the game - what do I do?

If you wish to actively spectate and show support for your representative, then there are two ways of doing this.

1) There will be a private spectator thread on the site for each game that you may request access to. Simply register on the site and PM the user "Thingyman", and I will add you. Feel free to spectate games that your representative isn't in as well. These threads are published after the game completes.

2) We have a spectator chat on Skype, with currently more than 200 people in it. It's very active and fun, I highly suggest you join it if you have Skype. It's way more active than the on-site ones. Just add me: thingyman.

None of these two chats/threads will be spoiled!

Finally, we kindly ask that you refrain from commenting too much on the games in public on this forum, as the other representatives will easily be able to find and read through this (as has happened in the past). I can't control what you do here, but out of respect for the integrity of this Championship, it's best if you don't discuss your reads on your representative or the other players or make comments that could potentially indicate your reads. I.e. even something like "oh man, our representative is totally being his usual self right now" is not good. Speaking very generally about what has happened so far in the game (so as to update your fellow community members) without commenting on it is fine though.

I hope this doesn't seem too strict to you guys, but the game can become very uncomfortable (and unfair) if there is discussion about it outside of the game thread. If you want to have your own private spectator chat, that is of course also totally fine and I even encourage it (I'd love to be added if you make one of these)

I wish your representative and your community all the best of luck for this season!
