You know how embaressing it is, for somebody who finds things routinly in the thread, only to discover he doesn't know his sign up page? Pathetic...

Also, I have browsed lots of pages in this thread and never seen a promotion in rank. (ie: paisan, capo) I know there are people with these ranks but I've never seen a capo or Ghost announce that someone has a higher rank.
Ah. These things are utterly rare. You'll barely ever see them. Especially now with the tranquil peace and quiet in this club... thank God.
Terrible period in NG Mafia history. I'd rather never think of it again:
See page 758 if you want to see what happens with promotions to Capos en-mass. Complete chaos insued for nearly five pages later. See page 762 to see what Strauss had to do to control the oubreak. See page 779 for the announcement and final cooling down period.
Wow. That took nearly half an hour to find. Lovely!
Anyways, there's a tid-bit of Mafia history.
Regarding promotions to Sgarista (one rank above Piciotto), the rank really hasn't been around long enough for anything of the sort to happen. Usually, a member of the caporegime will just mention you that way from what I've seen - there's no official policy in place.
Is it that hard to come by? Anyways, I thought Nomader said he was gone? He made it clear he was leaving I thought and he just posted?
Nope! I'm still here!
I said I'd be taking a short leave (my profile lies, don't read it!) to get my grades back up. They're going back up. So I'm back.

His name says it all Nomader. He'll drift here and a little there but he never really leaves. Just one of the many things you must grow accustomed to.
Heh - I never really thought of it that way. XD
I might not be Mr. Active number one, but I'll be here now and then. Actually, even if I leave for any amount of pages, I will always read everything - if I don't respond to your comment, don't take offense either - it's because I'll have a lack of time.
