Hasn't enough players signed up for a Mini (Little Italy) yet...?

Way more than enough to start. Just wait for the listmod to check in.

I seem to recall reading elsewhere on site that there are issues with the review process that take priority over starting existing games.

Just wait it out. The site's not going anywhere.

What kind of issues have they been having?

Judging by the first post things were up to date to:

oh I thought you meant you saw something more specific

nevermind then

[PokerFace]

I apologize if i sounded impatient earlier when i was not in the queue

Especially since i do have some rules that need perfecting in my game. And by that i mean I've never truly run a main forum game on this site so i need to find the right values for deadlines, prodding, and the like

What are the current standard day and night deadlines?
How long should a player have before they get prodded for being idle?
You know how some games give scum time to discuss strategy before the game, how much time should they get?

[PokerFace]

and Cabd just pmed me the answer to all that

@Tierce

, It seems I am going to be out of town from June 5-9

It might be a good idea to shuffle my queue placement so that my game won't start until after that. Otherwise I will need to find a backup and I don't currently have one

Woah, no one pmed me to pre-/in but it looks like I got a descent number of people already signing up, and here I thought I was too old

Wednesday, I thought I would rule out hydras to make it an easier modding experience for myself. Today, I thought I would let the people signing up vote on it. Looking at the signups so far, looks like we got 5 people out of 12 against it already. I think I'll call it there given my original opinion, so no hydras gonna be in this game. I'll PM cyberbob to let him know he can re-signup if he still wants to play

@Jet Skiies, sorry but you two will either have to signup individually or wait for another game to play

Rule post below (My rules are a bit over explained as I post too long by habit)

Spoiler:

The Rules, Stolen from shaft.ed, TSQ, Mr. Stoofer, Flameaxe, Jdodge:

00. I reserve the right to edit these rules at any time should something truly unexpected occur.

01. All votes must be made bold or made using the vote tag. Unvoting is not required but I heavily prefer it. Any attempts at disguising your voting will be prohibited. If its treated as a vote and I think its a vote, its a a vote!

02. A majority of votes is required to lynch. If there is a lynch, no amount of bitching will prevent the lynch from happening. I am a moderator, not a charity.

03. When you live, live well. Live long. Prosper. When you're dead, shut up. Don't post in the games thread. Lie in a grave/furnace/corpse pile. Rot.

04. All days have a 14 day deadline. All nights have a 48 hour deadline. The thread will lock during night given the nature of the game

05. You can vote for no lynch to occur during the day. Simply post VOTE: No Lynch. Should this vote reach a majority, it will happen. If no majority is reached during a day then there will be a no lynch when that day ends

06. Quoting or faking any PMs you receive from the mod will get you modkilled and blacklisted from any games I am running now or in the future. You may paraphrase anything in the PM. If you are worried you are quoting more so then paraphrasing you should probably PM me before I modkill you

07. Each player must post every 48 hours. If they do not, I will prod them. If they don't respond to the prod in 2 days, then they will be replaced. If you have already received 2 prods and you go idle for 48 hours a 3rd time, I will force replace you. This rule will be temporarily ignored if you give V/la notice 2 days before going V/la. Anyone found to be faking V/la will be mod killed

08. Don't talk to each other outside of the game thread unless your role says you can. If you disobey this rule,

you will be modkilled or force replaced pending the severity of your actions

09. No small or invisible text. Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts if you have the power to do so

10. This is a game. Have fun and respect the other players. Don't be a dick.

11. If it seems like it should be illegal, it probably is. Considering the fact rules sometimes can't cover everything. Please use your common sense. PM me if you think something you are about to do could break the rules or possibly ruin the game.

12. I am human. If I fuck up and make a mod error that personally looses you the game, then I will give you a technical auto win at the end of the game to make up for it

13. I respect anonymity on the internet and in mafia. If there is a scum group with a QT, I will

NOT

be posting a link to it at the end of the game. It is that scum teams decision as to whether or not a link to their QT will be posted at the end of the game

14. If I have to modkill a player, the following will occur. If that player was town, the day will immediately end as though they were the lynch. If that player was non-town the day will continue. Basically the worst case scenario will occur for their side. Please don't make me have to invoke this rule or any modkill related rules. I don't want to do it, I felt bad just writing them

15. The game will start with a Pregame phase. During this phase, any roles with the power to night talk may talk. Pregame will last 48 hours, you must PM a confirm to me saying you received and understand your role during Pregame, or i will look to replace you during day 1

16. If you have a night action and think you will be V/la during the night cycle, you can send the action to me in advance

17. If you have a night action and have already sent a target for your action, you can change your target before the night is over by sending me a message with the new choice

18. If you have a night action and forget to send me a choice, you get nothing.

19. Posting in the game thread can be done during twilight by any living player including the person who was just lynched, up until the mod locks the thread

Vanilla Townie PM:

You are a

Vanilla Townie

. You have no night actions. Use your vote during the day to help lynch all non-town players. You win when all non-town players have been eliminated. You do not have to be alive in order to win. Good luck

Tierce can you please make my setup review thread public so players can read it if they want?

[PokerFace]

Thanks again for replacing into one of my games

[PokerFace]
