This will be the thread to nominate someone for entry into the Mafia Championships 2021 hosted on Mafia Universe. Below is some information based on the game and requirements for the representative.
Spoiler:
SEASON 8 FORMAT
The tournament structure
150 communities will participate, each sending one representative. QUALIFIERS: 10 Qualifier Games will be played, consisting of 15 players each. I.e. every representative plays in one Qualifier Game. The players themselves vote post-game to determine who is deserving of advancement. 1st and 2nd place will advance to the Semifinal Games. SEMIFINALS: A Jury consisting of finalists from Season 7 will select 25 additional players to advance to the three Semifinal Games. From each game, five players will advance to the Finale Game based on a post-game player vote, just like in the qualifying phase. THE FINALE: The Finale Game is played. Once it has completed, the players vote to determine who shall receive the title of Season 8 Champion and a winner’s certificate signed by Dmitry Davidoff, the creator of mafia.
This year’s setup: Gold Rush 15er
The setup features 15 roles consisting of the following:
2x Mafia Goons
1x Mafia Roleblocker
1x Town Motion Detector
1x 1-Shot Town Vigilante (n2+)
1x Town Doctor
9x Vanilla Townie
Flips are alignment only.
Relevant mechanics info
- Day start.
- Majority elimination is enabled Day 2+, but majority is not required at any point for the elimination.
- Tied votes will result in a player being eliminated at random from among the tied players.
- No outside communication. I.e. you may not contact the other players outside of the thread (unless you are Mafia and wish to speak with your teammates).
- Phase Lengths and Deadlines will be up to the players themselves (I’ll organize your representative into a game with deadlines that suit their preferences).
- Thread is locked during Night Phases.
- Votes are automatically locked in at LYLO.
- Mafia factional kills are assigned. They can be tracked, watched, roleblocked, etc. (In this setup, that means they display as an action to the Motion Detector action.)
- Mafia share a factional Night Kill, which is a single standard shot for their faction. The mafia faction kill is mandatory.
- Mafia may communicate at any time.
- Each individual player may make a maximum of 150 posts per day phase (this restriction is lifted 2 hours before day end).
- The game will have a host to oversee everything and make sure everyone’s following the code of conduct, but otherwise the game is completely automated (automatic votecounts, thread locks and reveals alignments automatically, the bot receives and processes actions, etc.).
Expectations of Nominees:
Your representative should be prepared for having to read upwards of 500-600 posts per 24 hours during the early stages of the game. Additionally, there’s a requirement that each player must make at least 10 posts per Game Day. Only active players should apply/participate. I repeat: Your chosen player needs to be able to promise a good amount of activity on a daily basis.
You may nominate or second only one person. You cannot do both. A person can only be nominated and seconded once. First nominations/seconds will be taken. Any after that can be cast for another person. You cannot self-nominate. Anyone who has played Mafia games with us is eligible to nominate/second. You do not have to be a current player or playing on MU.
Once someone is nominated and seconded, they can either accept the nomination in thread or privately. If accepted, they will be put on a list to be voted on after nominations close. If declined, the nomination will be removed and the players who nominated/seconded, will be able to nominate/second someone else.
I recommend mentioning the player so they are notified.
Nominations will close on 4/22 at 9:00pm EST, at which point a voting thread will appear.
Good luck to all nominees and represent MMO-Champion well!
Nominations:
Xanjori - Nominated by Foxxi;
Foxxi - Nominated by Cereal; Seconded by Cruel2u; Nomination Accepted
Krayzy - Nominated by Bwon;

Due to anarchy, I am going to assume we will send Foxxi and she can choose her backup by talking to them. If anyone objects to this or wishes to throw their name in, please post below. If we get someone else who is willing to go and wants a vote off, we can do that.

The masked fox does speak with a tongue of the purest silver, that much is true. But what does it say? "Trust me. Trust me, for I speak the truth. Trust me, for I will sacrifice myself for the good of your beloved town!"
I'll send Foxxi, I hope you get to go and have a blast.

Why are we fannying about with all this nomination stuff. Just send the person with the most votes. Like last year and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that and the year before... forget how long it's been going 8th year now?

To get a list down of people to vote on, instead of one large post with everyone on it. I'm not adverse to doing it with just a vote either, but since polls only allow 10 options figured everyone could be included this way

I expect your nomination will be coming along shortly :P
Don't have time sadly. It's a shame because it's always been that way. Work gets in the way all the time, it's why I can't sign up for all our games. Mod-ing is a easier way for me to stay involved. All so have a 3 year old son now. So life really can pwn me from time to time.
I mean, the alternate option is we can just send Foxxi and let her pick her backup.

This is just nominating people to be voted on. Foxxi will already be on that list. Either second one of the other people or nominate someone new. Anyone with a nomination and a second will be put on the list for everyone to vote for.
