Is this just planning for everything? Or are we actually going to sign up here? I'm up for the next one (next weekend) at 7:30.

Friday's somewhat booked up (at that time at least), but you may be able to squeeze in a round after Graww's. If not, always Saturday or Sunday.

I prefer Saturday at the same time, if I can't squeeze a round in on Friday.

Saturday, April 23rd @ 7:00 PM EST is mine, in that case. It's the best time I have.  :)

Since some people have had difficulty with Mibbit & Web IRC, I took some time to write up some guides to mIRC (the standard IRC client) and Ice Chat (a simpler means of access). Here are those guides, and remember, the channel is always operational, even on days when there aren't any rounds. There's virtually always someone around, so feel free to test, join, and chat it up at any time. If you need any help, post here or PM me anytime!

Method #3: mIRC

mIRC is the most efficient means of accessing IRC channels, as you may have guessed. Firstly, CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD mIRC. After that, install the program with the default options and open it. What follows is the most comprehensive guide I could possibly make. If you have any problems, let us know!
Spoiler: How to setup mIRC for Mini Mafia
[STEP ONE]: Click "Continue"!
Seem obvious? You'd be surprised.
Image

[STEP TWO]: Fill Out the Forms
Enter your corresponding information as suggested in the image below. You don't have to use a real e-mail and don't have to enter your "full name" (you can put "Mr. Pickles" if you want, it doesn't matter).
Image

[STEP THREE]: Server Setup
Immediately after inputting your information, click "Server" on the option tree on the left of the pop up box (shown in the green box below). From there, scroll through the list of possible servers and click on Rizon (denoted by the red box below). After word, click "Select" to the right of that (the blue box). This should now return you to the previous set of options where you put in your information.
Image

[STEP FOUR]: Confirm Information
As a result of Step Three, you should see that the "Server" option (boxed in red below) now says "Rizon: Random server". After confirming the information you've filled out is what you would like, click OK.
Image

[STEP FIVE]: Mooooving On
Now, you want to click "Options" under the options tree on the left (boxed in green below) and then click on the "Perform" button (boxed in red).
Image

[STEP SIX]: Perform on Connect
Firstly, click the checkbox to "Enable perform on connect" (boxed in green below). Then, click the "Add" button below (boxed in red in the image).
Image

[STEP SEVEN]: Choosing Rizon
Scroll through the list of servers and again find "Rizon". Click on it and then click OK.
Image

[STEP EIGHT]: Perform Commands
Click the dropdown box (encircled in green below) and you should now find a new option available: Rizon. Choose it and then click in the text box under it (the red portion below) to insert the corresponding information displayed in the image below. That information is, on two separate lines:
   /join #dctp
   /join #minimafia

The first channel is the main DCTP channel and the second is the usual Mini Mafia channel. If you would like to opt out of either, remove that line (since this post will undoubtedly be referenced as an IRC guide elsewhere on the forums at times). What this essentially does is auto-join you to those channels upon each connect. Once you are content with the information in the text box, click OK and then OK again to get you out of the dialog boxes.
Image

[STEP NINE]: Connect!
If you followed all of the steps above, you're done! All that's left now is to click the lightning bolt (also known as "Connect", boxed in red below). When you do, you should be ready to chat away.
Image

[ADDITIONAL NOTES!]: You should probably read this!
IRC is distributed on a trial basis, but it remains entirely functional and free even after it "expires". When the expiration date does come, you will get a window similar to what's below. This DOES NOT mean you have to buy or otherwise register your copy of mIRC. Wait for a moment and the "Continue" button should become un-greyed and clickable. From there, the program will be usable as normal. If the "Continue" button changes only to "Exit", close the program and open it again. Again, you do NOT have to buy or otherwise register mIRC to use it! EVER!
Image

Beyond that, mIRC is fully functional and has no real limitations as an IRC client (for obvious reasons). It is also quite customizable, and I do recommend changing the font:
Image

If you DO encounter any connection problems: Do not panic!
You can specifically request to connect to a particular Rizon mirror server of your choice from those listed here. As is the case with most IRC commands, the server joining command begins with a "/" (minus the quotes). If you would like to connect to "irc.thefear.ca" for example, you would type in "/server irc.thefear.ca" (minus the quotes) on the main IRC window and press enter. From there, it will connect. If that doesn't work, try another server. To reiterate: All of the servers listed at the link above all lead to Rizon IRC. They are all simply mirrors of the same service, so they will all bring you to the Mini Mafia and/or the DCTP channel.

If you have any questions about this method, don't hesitate to PM me (Jd-) for assistance or to post in the topic. I am glad to help anytime!

Method #4: Ice Chat

If mIRC is a bit too complicated for your tastes, Ice Chat is a much simpler solution. For starters, CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD ICE CHAT. Virtually all of it is self-explanatory, but if you aren't really familiar with IRC at all, here is a quick rundown.
Spoiler: How to set up Ice Chat for Mini Mafia
[STEP ONE]: Enter nickname
This should be the window that greets you upon opening the program. Enter your nickname and click the green arrow.
Image

[STEP TWO]: Enter server
Type "irc.rizon.net" into the server window as illustrated below and click the green arrow.
Image

[STEP THREE]: Connecting to server
Continue through to the main window. At the top of the screen, click the "Favorite Servers" tab if it isn't already extended and select "irc.rizon.net" (it should be the top option now). After selecting it, click the "Connect" button at the bottom (boxed in green in the image below).
Image

[STEP FOUR]: Channels menu
After connecting, click the "Favorite Channels" button below "Connect".
Image

[STEP FIVE]: Joining channel(s)
Click "add" (as boxed in blue above). Enter "minimafia" in the resulting text box and click OK.
Image

[STEP SIX]: Joining channel(s)
Your entered channel will now be available under the "Favorite Channel" header (you may also add "DCTP" if you so wish, as that is the main DCTP channel for releases and such). For this example, click "minimafia" on the list and then click "Connect" (as boxed in green below). This will join you into the channel, and from there, you should be able to speak with the congregation. Enjoy!
