It is an online game that we play here. Long story short there is a good team and a mafia team and the innocents are trying to lynch the mafia during the 'day' phases and the mafia are trying to kill enough innocents that their numbers are even during the 'night' phases.

Your personal thoughts on the game, worth learning or not? Cause I have a lot of time at work to blow on well.. doing nothing but staring at cameras.

I may not be good for an unbiased opinion... :look:

Seeing as I'm running a game now, playing the other currently active game going on right now, and have a game to run in the waiting list...
So, long story short, yes, I think it's worth learning. There is also a class about it in the classroom, which you will be able to see when you become a citizen, if you want to learn about it.

Perfect, I look forward to learning the games ins and outs. But if you are that dedicated to it then it most be a flawless game. Something I will be-able to sharpen my skills with.

Welcome to Tar Valon Gill! I have read all of the Series up through Knife of Dreams. I am re-reading everything now (Currently on Crossroads of Twilight). I have read many other book series (Dragonlance, Drizzt Series, Sword of Truth) and the Wheel of Time is by far my favorite! Looking forward to getting to know a friend of the Vendrisaur!

Hello, and welcome to Tar Valon! :joy

I am very happy to see we're going to have ourselves an awesome, active member again. One cannot have enough of those, in my opinion. :pleased-1: As everyone else, I am at your service, and if you have any questions (though I believe Vendri more than likely explained the most important things) or would like to talk, write to me.

Hope to see you around more.

Welcome to Tar Valon, Gill. :D

I have to disagree with Ary about the rapid beginning of the books. I didn't like the prologue the first time I read it, and I hated the first few chapters. I put the book aside for a few months, until my friends convinced me it got better. I enjoy the prologue and early chapters now, on re-reads, but thought they were terribly boring the first time through. Guess it depends on personal preferences. :laugh:

Pathfinder is the best. :shifty You said you paint? What kind of painting do you do, Gill?

The book series is amazing, but not as amazing as the community here. There are so many people on the Tower with common interests with you (and me!), it's awesome to find people with whom to connect... explore topics... and hang out. There is so much potential for the Tower and its people to mean something to you. :) (That is my personal opinion.)

Your personal thoughts on the game, worth learning or not? Cause I have a lot of time at work to blow on well.. doing nothing but staring at cameras.

Mafia was one of my first loves on the Tower. A lot of people may be intimidated meeting the longer-standing members if they're new, but it's quite easy to rub elbows with everyone--when they're trying to kill you! D:

Thank you, thank you. And I just realized that post kinda came off self centered a bit... hmm oh well

Eh. That's what introductions posts are supposed to be like, I think. :)

I was wondering, does this book series have a slow start or is it rather rapid?

I'm on my first read through and got stuck around 8-9. The first half of the series is definitely fast, but it slowed down for me. :embarassed:

XD

Edit: Oh yeah welcome.

I wondered if you'd make it here, after your activation email wandered astray. Welcome. :P

Also, more TN people = OP.

Yeah, the books do depend on personal preference. :)

As for mafia, definitely give it a go. I am an avid player and am in the active game right now. :pleased-1:

Hey Gill! Heard you'll be coming camping with us! Look forward to meeting you.

I'm also a Biology nerd. I'm taking Medical Microbiology right now, and loving it!
