The M.A.M.A. Agreement - Mafia 101 continued
For anyone who doesn’t play regularly at http://www.vendetta-strada.com , there is a special agreement that applies to all rounds we play called MAMA (or M.A.M.A.). Basically, its a set of rules that assures fair play, and each time we sign up for rounds, part of the sign-up is that we agree once again to follow MAMA.
