Spies 3 is about to begin! The successful mafia game series is back for its third installment. More than 150 people over 10 games and three years have had an incredible time playing my Survivor and Mafia games. If you are looking for a unique, intense, and creative game by an experienced host – this is it!
“I wish everyone had the opportunity to experience one of your games because they are *by far* the best I've ever seen in my 5 years of playing." – Annette
“I want to say thank you to Sam. Sam, you hosted a real winner again. I loved your stories, the quotes at the end of the exiles, the board format, the twists, the leaderboard - just everything. You're so smart and innovative, and one hell of a host.” - DC
"They are, without doubt, the best online games you could play in your lifetime. He is committed to a fault and professional beyond belief. Thanks again to Sam who made this game *the* greatest I have ever played. I have enjoyed every second of it." – Tyler
“this game was so much more jam-packed and amazing then I could have anticipated. I cannot believe I seriously considered turning the offer to join the game down. Thank you so much for allowing me the amazing opportunity to play in your game. This game is an incredible ORG which made me play to my maximum potential. It tests everything in you and I'm proud to say I made it this far.” - Karl
"Only a Host as capable, imaginative and dedicated as Sam could pull this off without a hitch." – Jamie
“I loved playing, it was amazingly put together. The players were very into it, and that made the game.” - Matt
 So what is Spies? Spies is a fast-paced, viewer encouraged, alias game also known as Mafia or Wolves. It is sort of like a mix of Survivor and Mole and is a popular game played on college campuses across the world. It is an online social game where the players are pitted against undercover Spies from within their own group. Each round, the Spies try and decieve the Citizens (non-spies) while the Citizens try and root out the traitors in their group. The game ends when one side is eliminated. Want to take part in Spies 3? Visit the main page here: spies3.proboards81.com/index.cgi, click on Apply to Spies 3 and send the application to sam.burkett@gmail.com Everyone is welcome to apply! Spies 3 will feature: - An opening video. A gorgeous leaderboard that is updated frequently. Cute short stories posted at every Imprisonment and unique game events. Pictures, art, fun game events, and live chat vote counts happen all the time.
- A fast-paced, active game that lasts an absolute maximum of five weeks. (Spies 1 ended in a record victory for the Civilians in just 19 days while the Final 3 in Spies 2 held out to the very end on Day 36) Each round lasts three or four days and has one elimination by Spies and one elimination by Citizens.
- A great game for viewers to enjoy! Many viewers have told me how much they enjoyed getting into Spies 2 as it went along and following along with the updates. Viewers will be able to follow along with eliminations the day they happen. They can read the Imprisonment stories and read the Exile chats. A leaderboard will be posted and updated with all the players and their current status. Viewers will be able to watch and talk about the game, who they think the Spies are, and who they think will be eliminated next.
- An alias game to spice up the game. All players will be given a new AIM name and a proboards account to play Spies with. They will log on this new AIM name and use the proboards account to play. All identities will be kept a secret leading to new relationships.
Drop by and take a look and see if you would like to play or view the game as it goes on. Thanks for your time, and I hope to see you in Spies 3!

Just gonna give a shout out saying how great a Host Sam is. He's got to be one of the dedicated Hosts I've ever played for, and would even venture to say he's been my favorite (and Asteria was my favorite game).
I think the game concept rocks, and I can't wait to see how this all plays out for you Sam. Best of luck, best wishes and everyone should apply without a moment's thought or hesitation!

Meet two of the players who you could join when Spies premieres next week.. (just three more days until the application deadline passes!)  DamienDamien was known to date several people through high school and college, however, in his senior year he met his future wife, Alexandra. Two years later they wed and bought a house in Georgia where Damien currently works. One year later, Damien received news of a tragic accident. His wife had been murdered in Chicago while on a business trip. From this point on, Damien has been helping the FBI in the search for her killer. His trust levels have lowered because of this tragic event, but he is going to continue to work and thrive to find his wife's killer, taking out everyone in his path. GigiGigi Bouchard was born as the daughter of well-to-do parents in Paris, France. She was never quite so bright in school, but had a passion for acting. She used her parents’ influence ($$) in order to get into the Université René Descartes in Paris. After this attempt completely flopped, she decided to help out other aspiring talent instead and became a Talent Agent. Although she is still bitter at never having the chance to become a star herself, she does have success bringing others to stardom. People would describe her as classy, sophisticated, eccentric, colorful, fashionable, and of course, absolutely beautiful! Apply today for an exciting game starting soon! spies1.proboards59.com/index.cgi |

Quotes from players from my last game: "Sam, this experience was better than I had ever hoped and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. The time and effort you put into this game is just incredible and I enjoyed every minute. I heard a horrible rumor that this was going to be your last game and I'm seriously saddened by that. I wish everyone had the opportunity to experience one of your games because they are *by far* the best I've ever seen in my 5 years of playing." - Annette "Thanks to Sam for the coolest game I've ever played in." - Ethan "I just want everyone to know that this has been the absolute best game I have ever had the privilege to be a part of. This game was the closest to the real thing any of us will probably get, and I have to first thank Sam for helping that become a reality. Regardless of the spats I have had with Sam in the past, I cannot give him enough praise for doing these games. They are, without doubt, the best online games you could play in your lifetime. He is committed to a fault and professional beyond belief. Thanks again to Sam who made this game *the* greatest I have ever played. I have enjoyed every second of it." - Tyler "Sam - Thanks sooo much for letting me know about this game. I had so much fun participating in it. You are seriously the most amazing host ever, and every challenge kept one-upping themselves with how creative they were. You rock hardcore. I think I read that this was your last game...which is really depressing. If you decide to do another, you really need to let me know, I had so much fun!" - Lexie "As much as I bitched about this game, I truly enjoyed it." - Aaron "Sam - this game was so inventive and such a joy to play in. You are a one-of-a-kind host and I am honored that you would pick me to be among your all stars. I am thankful for the opportunity and fun that you've allowed me to be a part of for the past month and a half, and I hope the game is as enjoyable for you as it was for me." - Stacy "I can't forget Sam! My best buddy and favorite host ever. This game was mindblowing, I can't even believe the concept. I was so hesitant to come back in fear of people hating me and thinking I was some horrible person, and although I did get some of that I think it was totally worth it. Your challenges are amazing and the game is one of the most well organized out there." - Kevin "Thanks so much Sam. I do what I do because I enjoy it! I think that's why nobody's ever like "OMG I WASTED SO MUCH TIME ON THIS GAME JUST TO GET Nth PLACE!!", its because the game is fun and people just get upset that they can't have any more fun, haha." - Tori "Only a Host as capable, imaginative and dedicated as Sam could pull this off without a hitch. I'm truly glad I got a chance to play." - Jamie "I truly enjoyed both of these games; and I'm glad that I chose your game as the first gawe to apply to. Both of these games were positive experiences with exciting immunity challenges and great and unique Tribal Councils. So thank you for being an awesome host." - Mark "I had such a great time, and really enjoyed the people I met. And to Sam, thank you so much for selecting me for this! I hope I made the game exciting or fun for you to host, because you made it so enjoyable for me as a player!" - Lexie "Once again, Sam, I thank you SO MUCH for letting me play in your games. You are a pheonomial host and a truly great person. This game was awesome and I really loved everything about it." - Stacy "Thanks for a great game, Sam!" - Matt "I thank you, Sam, for allowing me to be part of this wondeful game. It was a blast. " - Jose |
