Congratulations!!

Elizabeth is a good name. That's our little girl's name too. Very happy for you all, and the pictures are adorable... it makes me wish we'd paid for a baby photoshoot. :)

Thank you!! I love the name Elizabeth. The photoshoot was so worth it (it was my Christmas present). :) JVoR thought it was silly until we got there and he saw the poses and props. I loved our photographer. I think she managed to get 7 or 8 poses with different props/outfits in under an hour, without waking the baby.

I'm about to turn 40, so yea, we'd stop at 2. The goal was to have a 2nd already. Life can be unfair at times, but  on the other side of it, our first-born is an absolute heaven-sent angel... 

The first was called a chemical pregnancy, it sucked, but frankly we didn't know and it was over 3 weeks after I got her pregnant. The 2nd was tough... 9 weeks we had a heartbeat, 11 weeks we had a traumatizing miscarriage at home. Anyway, sorry, we should be talking about the chubby little DanVoy baby.

Don't sweat it. The litter joke was funny.

I am so sorry. From weeks 6-9 of this pregnancy, my doctors thought I was miscarrying and kept telling me I should just go home and wait for it to happen. It was an absolutely terrible time. I hope your wife is doing okay. Good luck with everything. <3

They did imaging on a Monday to try and confirm that we lost the baby, then on Tuesday she actually had the miscarriage. As traumatic as it was, we're both glad it happened, because she was freaking out that she'd go for the removal procedure and the imaging might have been wrong. 

Either way, she's doing well. I'm thankful for her everyday, she handles everything so well.

Invitation to The Mafia Championship Season 3

Hello everyone, it’s that time of the year again :)

I am making this post with the hopes that your community would be interested in participating in Season 3 of the Mafia Championship. It will be bigger and more epic than ever before.

This year we’re expanding once again; 136 communities will be invited to participate, making this not only the biggest Mafia event ever, but also the largest cross-forum event in the history of the Internet. We’ve also moved the venue to Mafia Universe, a new site created largely because of this series.

 

Are you interested?

As always, how you decide your representative is completely up to you. To guarantee your community a spot in Season 3 of the Mafia Championship, I will need to know of your community's interest within the next week (until April 4th). Following this, you will have an additional two weeks to decide your nominee (until April 18th). Additionally, it would be a very good idea to also name an alternate.

Remember that your representative needs to be prepared to deal with a lot of activity. Expect at least upwards of 500 posts per 24 hours during the early stages of the game. The representative needs to not only be able to read all this, but should also at least be able to manage making 10+ posts per day phase.

Season 3 Specifics

 

• 136 different communities are invited to participate. If some decline the invitation, I may opt to allow larger communities an additional nominee.

• 8 Qualifying Games will be played with 17 players each.

• 2 players advance to the Finale Game from each game based on post-game votes.

• 1 Wildcard Game will be played (Wildcards are decided by a jury consisting of former finalists), determining the 17th and final spot in the Finale. Runner-ups in this game will be first in line to replace any finalists who may have to drop out.

Season 3 Timeline & Important Dates

The first Qualifying Game is set to start April 25th. Additional games will take place in the 1-3 months following. I will create a Doodle and find out the best times to start the various games so that preferably everyone gets to play during a time that suits them well.

In addition to this, it is also a priority to ensure as much as possible that all the players in any given game has no prior history of playing with each other to ensure a level playing field (but I cannot 100% guarantee that this won’t happen).

Season 3 Game Design & Setup

For each season, we’ve changed it up. This time, we’re doing something new again!

The setup is called Matrix12 and is inspired by mafiascum’s popular Matrix6 setup, if any of you are familiar with that. In short, the concept is that there are 12 different possible setups and the host randomizes which one is used. The players know what setups are available, but not which one will be used!

More on the setup here: http://www.mafiauniverse.com/forums/threads/1374-Setup-Discussion-Matrix12-%28Proposed-Season-3-Format%29

Regarding lynch mechanics: There will be a deadline each day phase, and the person with the most votes at the end of the day is lynched, unless a majority has already been reached before then, in which case the day ends prematurely.

Days will last 36 hours and nights 12 hours, meaning 48 hours (2 days) per game day. With one exception: The weekend (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) will be one game day (so day will be 60 hours and night 12 hours on weekends).
