Maybe. I do kind of want to play a game with Dedalus.

But the Mafia needs to get started more.

Hahah, no. But you started a new game with me, so that'll be the official one.
 
I don't think there's enough people for Mafia though :s dang, need more members :(

I could probably set it up, I don't expect it to be too difficult to organise. I think double elimination might be better to keep it short, but also fairer than single elimination.
 
Yeah but round robins take ages.
I guess if you have the 5-ish games running at the same time it works, but still...
 
To be honest, it hasn't been that confusing for me, even though I have three games up. I thought this would be taxing on the brain.
 
I'm okay with multiple games because I just press the button to see what the last couple of moves were to refresh my memory
 
Yoshiwaker: "this will lead me to a 27-move checkmate" *loses queen on move 9*
 
I won against Glaceon / Icemario. You guys should check out the replay, it was a really interesting and quirky match. GG mate. :)

I was going strong until I went on the offence, and Fanta moved that one Pawn forward, which pushed me back. I laughed a bit when that happened because I didn't see that coming at all and it was a pawn of all things, but it ended up wasting my turn and she began to steamroll all of my schemes, which costed me the game, which eventually ended through her Queen and Bishop's (knew one of those darned things would be the end of me) cornering of my King.

Still, that was a fun match. Good game.

I won against Yoshiwaker. Man that was a strange game. And that opening is definitely not something I'm going to repeat anytime soon.
