Real Name: Stan (I'll give you three guesses what my last name is.) Always Referred to As: Stan (since my screenname is unoriginal and gives people trouble) Age: 32 Location: Philadelphia, PA
Mafia Info: I started playing random forum games on the realms. Most notably was the WWII bomber game run by Kalel. Then Peers ran the first Realms mafia game. I gave it a shot and was instantly hooked. I ran the second Realms mafia game, and went on to run a total of 35 games as of this post. I am the realms Mafia Forum Junior Moderator for what it's worth. Given that we have 2-3 full-fledged mods who play mafia, it doesn't seem to mean much, but I still consider it an honor to have been nominated. I consider myself a mediocre player at best, but I'm a decent and dedicated mod. I am known around here for my strange character choices, my love of bad puns, and my poor typing skills. At one time, I'd recruited a huge number of mafia players to the realms. Only a handful are still around. I finally managed to get us a clan tag. YAY!
Personal Info: I've lived my entire life in a 20 mile radius. I went to college 10 minutes from home and bought my first house in the next town over. I currently live in the town next to the aforementioned town next to the town I grew up in. I am married and have 2 young daughters. My wife and I met in high school and have been together for 15 years, married for 9. My girls are named Illyana and Katya after Magik and Shadowcat respectively. I'm currently working in OTC Pharmaceutical R&D as an analytical chemist/supervisor.

Real Name:Jeff Sometimes Referred to as: Pax, Paz, Paxie, Nemesis Age: 27 Location: Boston
Mafia Info: I can be kind of a horrible person when I play. I've taken to abusing the hell out of the swear filter as strategy and there isn't really a dirty trick that I'm above. I'm kind of the Rick Flair of Mafia.
I love being a Neutral of any kind. It's just the role that makes the most sense to my brain. Give me a survivor, SK, cult leader and I'm a happy camper.
I love to mod games. I love that people say things like, "It's a Pax game so blabity bla can happen!" If I became stale and predictable I'd die.
Personal Info: I'm really a great person! I just like to have fun.
Real Name: Andy Sometimes Referred to as: Robo, RO Age: 17 Location: Los Angeles, CA
Mafia Info: I started playing when I was 13, just because I was curious. I was instantly hooked, to the point where I was signed up for virtually every game at a given time, despite being rather terrible. I played for about a year and a half, until the start of high school, when I went on hiatus for two years or so. I came back for the summer of 2010, but I felt that junior year was too important to have the time-eater that is mafia as a part of my life, so I left for almost a year again.
As a player, I can get overexcited easily, and also search for the smallest details and hammer them into accusations. I've tried to do that less lately, because it's usually wrong. I've modded a game-and-a-half, and they were both horribly unbalanced with over-revealing write-ups. I think I could do a lot better now that I'm older, but who knows when I will get one going.
Personal Info: I'm a swimmer for my school team; my favorite stroke is the butterfly. I spend much of the time when I'm out of the pool on the court practicing basketball, despite not playing competitively. I compete for my school's Mock Trial team as well.
I'm about to go into my last year of high school (barring catastrophe) and I'm not sure where I want to go or what I want to do with my life. I'm leaning towards engineering, and attending some place in the West like Harvey Mudd.
I don't play Clix anymore, but I have lots of Warhammer models I'm working on for both 40K and fantasy. I also have a different taste in music from the majority of my generation (not to sound hipster, I'm honestly not at all, I don't look down on others because of what they like).
Mafia Info
Yes i am still new in terms of playing mafia on this site, but a few months ago i completed my first as a mod.( Mortal Kombat). I thought after playing some games on a few other sites i would see how it feel to look on the other side of the coin sort of speak.
I used to play on MOTL before they stopped allowing games due to perosnal attacks and such. Currently i Play on mtgsalavtion. I have to admit when i first started playing i was terrible and sometimes i would post defensively with agression. Which appears to be my downfall still so i am still learning. Hence why i am trying to Mod here and get a birdseye view of what really happens and see if i can get a few pointers
Personal Life
Well i work in a mail room as a contractor for IRS, and sad to say i live with my mom. When i not working i'm into video game, watching tv or movies. Hobbies include MTG and WOW card games and Playing D&D online.
Real Name: Shaun Pal Age: 33 Location: Shanghai, China
Mafia Info
Well, I've now played like 3-4 games of Mafia on this site. I had fun. It's a nice low impact way to enjoy myself while I'm at work, and it doesn't really take up too much time.
This Weekend, we played about 8 games of Ware-wolf at a house party that I modded and it was good. After just a few games on this site I could tell that I had a much deeper and fuller understanding of the game
Personal Life
I guess the biggest thing in my life, is that I'm a geek. To the core. I have played Computer games, video games, board games, role-playing games, card games, LARPS and any other sort of game I could find since I was 6.
I also have a bit of wanderlust. I've traveled all over the US (I've seen approx 45 of the States), I've been all over Europe, Down to Central America, the Middle East, South East Asia and now China.
I'm engaged to be married to my girl of 8 years next summer. I got my Masters in Business at American University in DC and now I work as a manager for a US manufacturing company that has a factory over here in China.

Glad you could admit that.
"Why would the possibility of me being wrong ever stop me from doing something?"
Mafia Info: I was involved in some Mafia games on another forum (Grey Dog Software, if anyone cares), and from there played some at a MAfia-dedicated forum, and decided I'd like to play some here. So I, um... sort of introduced Mafia to the Realms. Ran a couple games. And the rest, as they say, is history. I'm better remembered for that early period than for my last two games, which crashed and burned for various reasons... okay, mostly involving me.
Personal Info: Computer programmer. Occasional gamer. The guy behind HCUtils, for all your PbP needs. Occasional depressive. Returning to HCRealms after about a year's absence. Geek (which should go without saying).
Real Name: David Harvey Sometimes Referred to As: logan, hey you, CD, the Blockbuster Guy Age: 34 Location: North Houston TX
Mafia Info: I'm almost always clueless as a player, which is why I like to run games more than play in them. I like movies, music, Marvel, and Mystery Science Theater 3000 and have run games based on each. I ran the Mafia Outcomes thread for a long time, but real life issues made me give it up to someone else. I'm always learning and try to make each passing game more and more successful. My best game series is the Mad Musical Mafia Mayhem Series
Personal Info: I'm on Facebook and I keep my profile current there. You can look up my Facebook page by putting @yahoo.com after my screenname. I work at Blockbuster, although I hope to start a new career soon. I'm a single guy, but I hope that changes sometime soon as well. Some women have even gone as far as to call me handsome or at very least cute. I have an interesting sense of humor which comes from having four older brothers to banter with .
I like Heroclix a lot and play on Monday nights right now, although not always. I really wish they would stop changing the rules all the time, especially as drastically as they have been doing as of late. I like playing games and try to be at least competitive. My brother Jon got me into playing it and even though he isn't as deep into Heroclix as I, we still like to play a good game now and again. I play a lot of games with my brother Ken who is more local.
I play Fantasy Football, Basketball, and Baseball with my family and have won the Harvey Cup for Fantasy Baseball two years in a row. This is extremely odd since I really hate sports and have no interest watching them on tv. What makes this even odder is the fact that my family has some serious sports nuts in it and they are all very competitive.
Real Name: Brian Woodyard
Sometimes Referred to As: Thor, ThorKnigh, fireball(high school nickname)
Age: 28
Location: Abilene, Tx(if you don't know where that is im not suprised haha)
Mafia Info: The first game i tried was Eddie Izzard mafia. I followed the signature for signups and after that game I didn't try a gain for a bit. Then i tried another game and have been hooked ever since. I have played in almost every game for the last couple of months. At one point I think I was alive in 5 games at 1 time. I really enjoy the game and will likely try to Mod a game sometime soon. I currently have 2 victories under my belt the most recent having been in the X-men new player mafia as the Don. So i now have mafia win and 1 town win to date.
Personal Info: I have lived in Abilene my entire life. I started playing clix in 2006. I have a long history of gaming. From MTG and Pokemon to Lord Of the Rings Mini's and Blood Bowl. I also love Board games. I collect different versions of monopoly. I also have a good amount of RPG experience with D&D, Star Trek and Star Wars.
I am newly married to my wonderful Elizabeth.
My little known fact about myself is that I am a former national high school gymanstics champion. I started my freshman year of high school and was selected to represent TX at the high school nationals my senior year.
I work as the tech guy for an automotive transport software company. I pretty much do everything in the office from computer repair, end user support, network management, to general customer service. Pretty much a jack of all trades in the office.
I am generally friendly and caring, im pretty conservative politically mainly due to my feelings on economics. I am christian and have played guitar in my church's praise team. Man this is getting long so im going to cut it now.
Real Name: Toni Sometimes Referred to As: Ouch, Maker of Ouches, etc Age: 27 Location: Born and raised in Turku, Finland.
Mafia Info: I think my first game was a spy Mafia, and while it was something different, it still got me hooked on these games. Have run a few games as well, had plenty of ideas but often got sidetracked or lost interest.
Personal Info: I'm an older brother, oldest of 8 cousins. One of my cousins is also my goddaughter. Love kids, animals, comics, video games.
Careerwise, spent a few years in deconstruction until depression caught me about 18 months ago, been recovering from that, planning to start studying history next year.
I often make jokes in writing that suffer from the fact that you can't hear the sarcasm in my voice.

Mafia Info: I started playing during the second game they ever ran here, and enjoyed it a lot at the time. I eventually turned my attention to mafia games being run at many other websites to learn new strategies, and to bring new (and more importantly, tried and proven good) role ideas and game ideas to HCR.
My favorite roles typically have little to no investigative value at all, as I prefer trying to read people. I get "hunches" that tend to have little factual basis, but tend to strike truer than my logical analysis will. Which either speaks wonders for my intuition, or volumes of ill about my logic.
Probably the latter.
I play Mafia/Werewolf in real life as well, which I have found to be enjoyable, although we're beginning to suffer from, "Adam always wins" syndrome, where they kill me right away no matter what to keep me from participating.
Personal Info: I have command of a large vocabulary, and I use it. It's rare that I write a post under 1000 words. I am poor at conveying what I really really really want others to understand, so I tend to subtract and add to the message enough times that it gets convoluted and long, but at least it gets me heard.
I'm typically a very very silly person who rarely takes anything seriously. I detest confrontation, and typically will meet it head-on with sarcasm or idiocy in an attempt to defuse a situation, or pull everyone's crosshairs my way, instead. If I call you a poopface and tell you you're stupid, I'm likely trying to lighten the mood, not instigate something. Unless you really are a poopface.

Mafia Info: I've never played heroclix or mafia, but my bf (jackofhearts) convinced me that mafia might be fun to play, which is why I'm here.
Personal Info: I work at a non-profit managing the volunteer program, which I love. I majored in International Relations in college and regularly keep up with the news and politics, though the Republican primaries are giving me heartburn. When I'm not doing that I work out, read, watch terrible TV, and try to keep the cats from sleeping on my clean laundry.
