    Well I'm on holidays now and work shafted me on shifts so I'm basically doing nothing for the next month or so, so I thinks to myself I thinks: Perhaps empty should give another go on infiltration. We had some really good funtimes in the past, so I feel maybe it's time to run again. There's a lot of mistakes I've made in old matches that I'll try to work on, and I think we'll go for a simple round, just basic classes nothing too fancy.

    For those of you unfamiliar with infiltration, it's the empires flavour of forum mafia (or werewolves in some circles), 20-30 forumgoers sign up, I randomly distribute mafia (northern faction) amongst you, about 4-5 depending. The remainder are brenodi forces of some kind, most are just personnel with no abilities but there's a few with some tricks up their sleeve to give you an edge. Each 24 hours we switch between day and night, during the day everyone votes on who they think should be lynched, during the night, northern faction spies and the special classes murder innocents, eachother and stuff. There'll be a big post explaining all the rules if I get enough signups, I'm hoping for 20, I'll settle for 15, if we get under 15 I'll call it not enough interest and scrap the idea for now, since the game isn't that fun with low player counts (it tends to end REALLY quick)

    So yeah, signups thread, I've lost count of the number of rounds so we'll call this round 1 for version 2. Feel free to discuss funtimes or gripes you guys had in previous rounds, suggestions are welcome but I wanna keep round 1 simple.

    Also guys PLEASE stay active through the match, if you're inactive (even as an innocent) it slows the game to a crawl and it becomes boring. I'm going to think of a way to reward activity, one idea I have is thus:

    Each NF spy + whatever class that does kills during the night tells me their kills.
    I subtract 1-3 kills from the entire total (depending on remaining players), and pick people I deem the most active out of the people being killed to survive. THIS WONT BE JUDGED OFF THREAD POST COUNT.
    IE if you stay active as an innocent you'll probably STAY ALIVE. Attentive players are alert players are players who won't get shanked.

    That's just an idea, but I think it may become reality if I continue to have problems with inactivity.

    16. Brutos (Even you?)
    17. Blizzerd (le gasp)
    P.S. I'm thinking of doing some highlights reels and then throwing them in the OP of the main thread once the game ends, so people who missed the game can get a gist for what went down, both in-thread and in personal chats, if you get juicy chatlogs etc during the game, send them to me and if they're funny/dramatic/awesome I'll put them in the debriefing once the match ends!

    BloodRaven why you delete post?

    As for the thread, I'm in conditionally that there's at least 20 people and that even if the infiltrators get totally undetected until the end (this happened before, because I'm awesome), then it lasts at least a week.

    Basically, last couple of times I've played, it sucked because not enough people got involved and tonnes of people went inactive, or it was over in like 3 days.

    We're up to 10, good start! If we keep gaining numbers at this rate I might wait til 25 players (30 would be AMAZING.)
