(Yes/No)
    - Yes. More to the point I will point out that this setup is swingy and that in this game and any other I mod I make no claims to ascribe to the normal site mod meta y'all are used to as I reject sterile pre-planned mafia experiences.

Putting this back into signups.

Update 3 - This has expanded to 24 players. I would like to start signups next week.

[T-Bone]

Just begin sign-ups you're the only one in the queue.

[Cabd]

1. Game name
   - Fate Grand/Order: Epic of Remnant
   
2. Flavor
   - A themed anon-account game focused around 14 "servants' fighting for the holy grail. More specifics in game signup thread.
   
3. Number of players
   - 14
   
4. Are hydras allowed (Yes/No)
   - Nope! Nor are their mains!
   
5. Your modding experience
   - Lots. Prior large theme games such as "Mafia in the Lostbelt" should suffice as proof.
   
6. Current modding commitments
   - None
   
7. Reviewers
   - Penguin_Alien
   
8. Reviewers agreed to FINAL version? (Yes/No)
   - Setup is partial upick. Setup will be go-live after we mathematically ensure it's fair-ish to both sides and minimizes swing as much as is possible given the game style.
   
9. Backup or co-mod
   - Also Wife_Alien
   
10. Backup or co-mod's experience
    - Lots. Large theme "Warehouse 13" should suffice.
    
11. Backup or co-mod's commitments
    - Holy Matrimony. But yeah seriously, neither of us have anything but this going on right now, with the exception of a single newbie moderation.
    
12.

(Yes/No)
    - Nope!

Game would ideally go into signups no earlier than June 14th, but looking to get the approval process done sooner over later.

[T-Bone]

You can begin sign-ups once you find a back-up mod.

[Jake The Wolfie]

Ircher has agreed to Backup my game. They hosted SIR Mafia, a Large Theme under the Alt of Covid 19, as described on their wiki page.

I do not believe they are modding anything at this time.

Have fun.

Go for it

[T-Bone]

I am setting myself to v/la for about 2 weeks. I'm moving to the Boston area, so that is going to take up a majority of my life for the foreseeable future.

I'll still monitor this thread and launch games as needed. If you need game related Listmod style help while I am on v/la, please message one of the other Listmods.
