The little girl gave a cry of amazement and looked about her, her eyes growing bigger and bigger at the wonderful sights she saw.
The cyclone had set the house down very gently--for a cyclone--in the midst of a country of marvelous beauty. There were lovely patches of greensward all about, with stately trees bearing rich and luscious fruits. Banks of gorgeous flowers were on every hand, and birds with rare and brilliant plumage sang and fluttered in the trees and bushes. A little way off was a small brook, rushing and sparkling along between green banks, and murmuring in a voice very grateful to a little girl who had lived so long on the dry, gray prairies.
While she stood looking eagerly at the strange and beautiful sights, she noticed coming toward her a group of the queerest people she had ever seen. They were not as big as the grown folk she had always been used to; but neither were they very small. In fact, they seemed about as tall as Dorothy, who was a well-grown child for her age, although they were, so far as looks go, many years older.
Welcome!
It's an interesting adventure, being in Oz. Pity someone's trying for yet another hostile takeover of this lovely fairy land.
Wizard of Oz Mafia is a game for 25-30 players. Color will be based on L. Frank Baum's novel and not the musical. Signups will start now and will close either when all slots are filled or Story's game ends, whichever comes first.

Any idea when this might run? And how long are Day/Night cycles?

Post by Sister Coyote on Sept 12, 2013 9:20:46 GMT -5
It'll run when Storyteller's game finishes, and right now I have a fairly long Day/Night cycle set: 5 day Days and 2 day Nights, but that's not set in stone yet.

As always, one does not need to be familiar with the source material for the game to work.

I have posted the rules thread; can someone remind the folks on Facebook that we have openings and I'll take care of Giraffe?

Well. I think BOTH would be a bit excessive.

Assuming you're still looking for players...I'd be interested in signing up, but it depends on when you're planning to start the game. I'm going out of town Saturday morning, and won't be back until Wednesday (Oct 9).
If that will work with the schedule, count me in. If not, put me on the sub list.

I could conceivably start as soon as tomorrow, but Sunday is a bit more likely. Your call; with five-day Days you'd have a fair amount to catch up on but not be completely out of the loop for Day One.

I should be able to find some time in the evenings to keep mostly caught up. We'll be at Disneyland, so heck, I could limit my Mafia play to 'only when we're standing in line' and be just fine
