Well the community is dead again or people have been waiting days for this.

Overview: Blade Mafia games are meant to push the limits of Mafia but still maintain a semblance of balance. There are roles that have appeared in Blade Mafia games that have, as far as I know, never appeared anywhere else on this site. It's the ultimate meta at own risk game: Some have had renamed roles, and some have had roles you think you recognize - But you don't. The balance is rough and may tilt somewhat to one side when all is said and done. Again, meta it at your own risk.

Flavors are set to their roles and there is no connecting thread between them. There are no safelists, and anti-town players may (within reason - asking for a ton of flavors or asking if a flavor someone else has already claimed is in the game is crossing the line) inquire as if to specific flavors they wish to claim are in the game. As such, nonsense that already ruins games like a day 1 massclaim completely ruins the Blade Mafia setup, so it's strongly encouraged not to do that. I still remember being policy lynched as Town Jack in a game town later rightfully lost for refusing a day 1 massclaim. Most important town loss in B8 history tbqh.

Note I am significantly busier than I was during the previous 4 Blade Mafias (They were all like 7+ years ago!). You can direct any question you need to Crescent if I am not available.

The game is set up to have 18 players. This isn't quite the original version I had, but I think it's better off anyway. If I get a few more than 18, I may try to expand it. Blade Mafia 4 had like 31 players it was nuts let's not go that high.

Oh also, the game likely will not be ready until later in the week, though the setup itself is complete.

I think I could make a Blade game work, but add me to the bottom of the list and bump me to replace if it gets full enough with players that have enough confidence to actually commit.

If you want, I'll make you a deal. Regardless of my alignment if you are starting to go off the rails, I'll @ you in a post and just say remember the sign up topic. And that way you know it isn't anything attacking you or belittling. Just a reminder of you wanting to be better.

Sounds like a deal to me. And when you do that, I will take a walk. Sometimes all I need is fresh air and a lap around the park.

Yeah, when I was in college, I had all the time in the world to play games like this online (primarily Survivor ORGs). Granted, it wasn't grad school, and I wasn't very good at regulating myself back then when things went awry (now, I'm fine with that, it's just recognizing the need to regulate that I'm struggling with, and I appreciate the help there).

Problem is I keep saying "aight I'll actually get work done and defend my thesis" and then it never actually happens.

But now my thesis defense date is set in stone, so my days of procrastinating on my research end now lol

I'll join with a caveat that I have a lot of people scheduling my nights away right now, so I may be a fair bit less active in general.

That still means that I fully read topics and keep myself up to date, but you may see more of a "pop in to give thoughts rather than stay to make bad jokes" style from me.

What are you defending?

Masters thesis
Or are you asking about the specific topic? My research is on holograms (though unfortunately not the same kind of holograms you see in sci-fi movies lol)

Kinda. Traditional holography works similarly to photographs but for 3D objects. So it's like looking at a 3D object through a 2D window (like, you can see different angles of whatever is recorded on the holographic film).

My particular focus is on digital holograms, though I've basically only done simulation work, as my research is purely theoretical. I've had the opportunity to make some holograms, but not the same kind that I'm doing research on.
