Newbie Game Queue (Old, Locked)

[Nobody Special]

A clarification, if you please...

I am New. I am in one Newbie game. Am I able to join a non-Newbie game at this point, or do I have to wait to be Dead in my initial Newbie game? (The rules aren't quite as clear on this.)

The reason I'm asking:

Any player is, of course, welcome to join other Game Queues as they feel ready...

The way I understand it, for your first game, you can only be in one game until you are dead in that game. After that, you can replace into as many games as you can handle, but you can only start one game from scratch until you are dead in your second game. After that you can /in or /replace into as many games as you can handle. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

I don't read it that way at all. I guess I'll wait for Vel-Rahn's official word.

The rules in Post 0 only apply to the Newbie Queue. You may play as many games as you want, up to the limit of allowed games

as specified in each Queue

.

I don't recommend playing in more than one Newbie game when you first join however. If you're new to the site, we

strongly

suggest that you only play in 1 Newbie game to start with. Reason being is that we play differently from site X, and while you may have a blast playing games on site X you may find our way of playing not to your liking. Or this may be your first game anywhere and you just don't like it at all. This lets you get out of the one Newbie game in a relatively short amount of time and it doesn't disturb the other queues.

Effectively what it boils down to is this:

tl;dr: finding replacements sucks. Please don't go hog wild and sign up for 5 games, hate playing here, and then quit. We then have to find replacements for you in all 5 of those games.

Thank you for the clarification. I'm going to take it rather slow (for me), and only play in two games at a time. I'm seriously addicted to this type of game, and I've played it a lot elsewhere, and I'm comfortable with the gameplay on this site.

The waiting time for a game to start is currently 4-5 days, on average.

Also, you can watch the first post in the thread to see how full the next game is. That's where they keep track of the newbie players, the SE's and IC's.

From the wiki:

Formally, it is used as a distinction in Newbie games for a player between Newbie and Inexperience Challenged (i.e. Experienced), for players with two finished games on mafiascum.net.

I know you've finished one game; if you have another completed game, then you are an SE.

PACKBAT!!!!!

Good to see you here; I look forward to playing with you.

If you mean an Open game, as in the setup is Open (all roles are known before gamestart), that thread is here. Although, playing a Newbie here would help, to learn Our Ways.

I really,

REALLY

need this. It's a Newbie slot, so anyone may replace in. We're fast approaching deadline, and I

will

extend if I get someone today or tomorrow. Still only sixteen pages! A bargain at twice the price! You'll never get this type of opportunity again, so join NOW!

Am I trying too hard?

[Nobody Special]

Nobody Special - I've only ever played mafia on epicmafia.com, which is live mafia, and I'm looking forward to my first game here. I'm assuming newbie games are short and simple games, and I don't mind reading through 16 pages of chat if I have to, if yours is a newbie game, I'd like to join.

I wouldn't call them short. Simple, yes (comparatively). Role PM on the way, thanks!

[Nobody Special]

I need a Newbie replacement for Newbie 1043. Day One and only FOUR pages -- it'll be just like joining a new game (much like a watermelon is like a canteloupe -- they're both quite tasty, right?).

Shoot me a PM if you're interested.

[Nobody Special]

Thanks all! Deer replaces Soccerdude10293847 in Newbie 1043.

[Nobody Special]

I need a Newbie replacement for Royal Flush for Newbie 1057 -- 3 very short pages (and obviously Day One). PM me to jump the queue and take this slot!

[Nobody Special]

I need a replacement for Deer in Newbie 1043. It is Night Two, 17 pages. Send me a PM to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity!

[Nobody Special]

/In for the next noob game, as the first one I was in I trolled (a lot) and the second one I was in I forgot about it.

That's not the sort of thing you admit to :/

Especially in the thread where the Mod who had to replace you (when you forgot about the game) can see it.

[Nobody Special]

I need a replacement for TheJakalope in Newbie 1057. It's Day One, only seven pages. PM me to jump into this game.

While new to these forums, I am not new to the games.

Also looking forward to having a shot at playing a game where people won't kill me within the first few days because they disapprove of my clue solving attempts...

(Pssst: To join a game, you have to explicitly

say so.

Like this: "/in for next" (slash optional but highly recommended.)

[Nobody Special]

You should send him a Private Message (click the PM button in his post).

[Nobody Special]

You're an SE after your second completed game, per the OP (third bullet point in the section Player Game Limits).
