Attention Gafia!
The voting period for the Mafia Invitational is over.
The representative for Gafia at the 2016 Mafia Universe Mafia World Championship will be...
Sorian, the Prolific Poster Boy!
If he is unavailable, his second will be
Burbeting, the Bear of Love!
I have a list of the remaining competitors, so if both Sorian and Burbeting need to drop out, I will make further announcements from there.
Thanks to all who participated, either by self-nomination or by voting, and join me in wishing good luck to our representatives.
If you were a nominee and would like more information on the voting results, you may message me by PM or on Discord.

Can I just say that to me this is an extremely tough choice. Any of those players would be great reps.

That's a great collection of players. I'm sure I'll be happy to be represented by whoever ends up being chosen.

"There have been 12 votes by 4 voters."
Do we need to pass a voter ID bill?

I wanted to make my joke so I did, logic be damned.

I love how the player titles start off nice and slowly get more and more insane, ending with Xam lol. I have to assume Retro did that on purpose!

I like this Top 3 Idea, it makes it easy to see who everyone generally agrees on even if it's not their first choice.

It's not that I'm unwilling to vote for Burbeting, it's just that in theory we want a representative who can survive more than one day phase.

Hi guys Your representative has been scheduled for the game below. Game 5 - May 23 (36/12 phases, American deadlines)Azure (Stickpage) Beck (NovoCiv) faZ (NADoTA) Flare (Survival of the Fittest) Ghowilo (Gtx0) Jaime Lannister (Zelda Universe) jpmegami (IGN Boards) Knight (Old Gold & Black Forums) Kuhn (Neoseeker) Linkcat (Elements) My Immortal (GameFAQs) Panther (Fifth Avenue) Sorian (NeoGAF) Stork (DailyMafia) SVNBob (Previously.TV) Spirederman (UK Football Forums) OPEN/RESERVED SPOT The game is taking place on Mafia Universe. You can find the specific subforum dedicated to the championship here: www.mafiauniverse.com/forums/forums/36-The-Mafia-Championship-2016I 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 140 people in it. It's very active and fun, I highly suggest you join it if you have Skype. Just add me: thingyman. Please let me know which community you hail from when adding me. 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!

We could maybe start with spectator threads for the unofficial game our representative is playing in right now.
The way we do spectator threads here is usually one on this forum and a channel on Discord like you guys do with Skype, but we have had some issues with the former being a bit forgotten.

Thanks for the information, Thingyman. We take security seriously here, so I'll make sure that any discussion is well protected. (In the case of this forum, we usually allow access to spectator threads on an account-by-account basis.)
Right now the plan is to limit any discussion on our end to a private, invitation-only chat on Discord. If that's a problem, please let me know.

Hi guys Sorian's game just started: www.mafiauniverse.com/forums/threads/2202-Season-3-Game-5-Mean-Girls-Mafia-ChampionshipIt's already gotten 100 posts in the first half hour. Strap yourselves in for this one  If you want to spectate and/or talk about the game, remember to please either do this privately or PM Thingyman on the above site to be added to the private on-site thread or better yet: Add Thingyman on Skype and I'll throw you into the very active and fun spectator chat on Skype with 200+ ppl. Good luck to your representative and your community!
