mafiascum Card Deck (Taking orders again! ~5 decks left!)

[talah]

DrippingGoofball did the art, and diginova designed the card frame and box. It is definitely boss. :)

And yes, the international shipping is in addition to the cost of the deck(s).

Well, I'll just go ahead and add this to my DGB art collection, shall I?

Seriously great stuff MS folks <3

Transaction ID : 6SG123686M004004H

Paid 3rd March 2015 local time. 2 decks plus international postage.

Are these coming out soon?

[talah]

Thanks Mith.

[talah]

bout a week and change

BADUM TISH

[talah]

Thansk to memegenerator.com.net.au, and myself, for that frankly poor observational image.

Still, I want the cards or I will spank Majiffy raw.

[talah]

So we're agreed - the decks, a copy of Fallout 4 and a PC which can run it will be shipped out as a "thanks and sorry for the delay" to everyone who ordered an MS deck.

Spoiler:

Hey as an aside Majiffy, there seems to be a lot of interest in spanking you. I wonder if we could do something along the lines of taking a plaster cast of your gluteus maximus and mass-producing spankable rubber replicas.
We could even package it as some sort of game which came with small bats and the catchphrase would be "That's-a-Paddlin!" Maybe it has some sensor built in which measures quality and intensity of spanking.

Best name I can come up with right now is "Spank-Me Jif!" even though that doesn't make sense. Game names don't have to, y'know.

So to-do list: source cast, find rubber producer, make pilot, push into cult/underground status, sell pilot, advertise heavily into mainstream, make more, profit.
You can have like a 0.5% royalty on nett profits? You'll also be liable for any losses but pffffft

[talah]

Oh, OHHHH, I get it now. Sheesh, I'm an idiot.

DayZ standalone. That's never being finished. Did I win?

[talah]

Woulda been great if you had a similar ongoing availability deal going on with your T-Shirt printers actually.

Thenk-you for the update, kinda going stir-crazy waiting for my awesome MS decks to show up so I can share my experience here with other folks :)
Every time someone asks about my tee I explain the game and the site to them.

Spoiler:

Any interest in a "Spank-Me, Nova!"' spin-off? Some people just need a good paddling.

[talah]

Every time someone asks about my tee I explain the game and the site to them.

I cannot figure out how to explain the site and game to people without making it sound either lame and/or criminal.

Any tips?

I start by explaining the basic game mechanics (Day/Night, scum/town, lynching, PRs, forum format mechanics etc). I might have had the easier job since I've rolled scum I think twice ever so my focus has generally been on scumhunting and use of PRs. I guess mainly for me it's been about sharing enthusiasm about playing, or about doing something which is a bit different and mentally stimulating, which makes explaining it pretty easy.

[talah]

Every time I've explained the basic game mechanics to people, I've gotten weird looks.

Titus's explanation is probably the safest and most accurate one without getting into the nitty-gritty.

I think if I got that reaction I'd give an over-the-top weird look back but that's just how I interact with people anyway.
Then again I'm not really out to sell the site, but the game is pretty cool and is part of my experience so I enjoy sharing that with others.
Plus the shirt art rocks.

There's probably a discussion in the MD forum about this :)

[talah]

Lynch man. It's called lynching.
We do it because we have foreknowledge you'll murder us if we don't murder you :eek:

[talah]

Egh - we do it the easy way here

Dec - Feb = Summer
March - May = Autumn (note the word - it ain't "Fall")
June - August = Winter
September - November = Spring

See? Easy!

[talah]

Easter Eggs in Autumn confirmed^

[talah]

I had a chit-chat today with a colleague who plays a game called 'Resistance' which also uses a card set and is similar to Mafia.

I'd really like to get my hands on the decks I ordered at some time in the near future if it's possible.

I apologize about the excessive delay as well. I take the blame for it and underestimated the amount of time it would take to get it going. There should be no further excessive delays.

Just waiting on the final invoice from the printer.

I'm still waiting on diginova to get back, he had to travel (for work I guess?).
I wish I had a positive update... diginova did send the final check to the printer last week, but I haven't heard from him since.
I got an update Friday from diginova - he spoke to the printers at PAX, the colors were a bit off so they were getting that sorted.
The latest from diginova: His submission to them for production never went through, so they were waiting on each other.
I am back to waiting on an invoice. Following up with diginova.
Still waiting to hear from digi.

Please?

[talah]

He said he's never rolled spy but he always gets accused of it because of his beard :)

[talah]

If you have a better suggestion than bringing the (promised absent) additional delay to the forefront and begging for it to be over with I'm all ears. Sounds like you think I should gently suck up and appeal to a sense of puffing miff's ego up. Not the point sir.

[talah]

Considering there are more than one of these a day in your country (4+ shot in a single incident) perhaps it will never not be too soon.

I just want a deck I can use to play with mates and another I can give to someone as a gift. Time and situations are passing me by where I'd love to play face to face mafia with a random deck to hand cards out of.

I'm sure I'm offending everyone's sensibilities here but 9 months is a ridiculous amount of time to wait Mith, man.

I really love the idea and I want it in my hands :'( :'(

Yeah so I think I'm going through the stages of loss here.

[talah]

Yeah thanks Mith. I'd hugely prefer to see these come out rather than being refunded, and I appreciate the frustration you're feeling as we're all feeling it.

(I'm awoling from this thread and will shut up <3 merry times and decks of cards and diginova with a milkshake talking to scummer friends and smiling as the prodigal son)

[talah]

I um. I've siteflaked twice now and pop in to see if we have an awesome deck coming in yet :)
I miss Flay.

[talah]

I'd post a gif of an ace of spades with an undulating quadz-avatar-head at this point if I had teh skillz.

[talah]

Just to troll I was going to say "I'm going to give my puppet a handjob to celebrate" and then I thought about the practicalities.

[talah]

By the way and super off-topic...

GRATZ and I'm really happy to see you back Jiffy <3

[talah]

Anyway I dunno if that's a thing to be gratzing a person on but still.

Cards cards rabble rabble, hype for soon, haven't changed address etc etc

:D

[talah]

Molla did you get yours? Are you doing the double-sarcastic troll thing?
Eh? Eh?

[talah]

Probably. They probably won't get delivered tho.

[talah]

I got my shirts, all 3. Very very fucking awesome. And I am embittered by the saga of the printer's foil (new Agatha Christie novel).

[talah]

Wait, shirts were still being sold and you got some?!

No I bought 3 on the issue they had. I've been here a while :)

Wasn't the shirt thing done in late 2011 early 2012?

Your join date is 2013

Indeed, indeed. Looks like you missed out on the reissue. The front artwork (especially) is frocking awesome, and the back has a big MS logo over the shoulderblades.

:P

[talah]

It's 9.55pm and it's my 39th birthday tomorrow.

Guess I should man up and realise some things take time.

Instead I'm re-watching the UK Office where Gareth has an annoying mechanical cookie jar and David is talking about a black man's cock.

I've made my choices folks.

[talah]

Yeah apparently I'm 39 now. Any word on diginova and printing and cards and postage and thinggggs?

[talah]

I think it would be nice if diginova read this thread or his attention was drawn to it.

[talah]

I'd like a refund please. I'm siteflaking and the ongoing MS card deck scenario is like some kind of ongoing joke.

You had the artwork and you could have had the cards done by now but somehow "diginova the ruler of the wiki" has been made responsible and has not been relieved of the duty he's obviously unable to undertake over the course of 2 years.

Please contact me by email to arrange. I'm done.

[talah]

Just by the way I've donated a substantial amount to the server fund, bought t-shirts, and made a successful transaction which was over $1k (including postage) with another scummer buying her artwork.

But this, this is bullshit. And sorry if you don't like to hear it but it's true.
