In? Not entirely sure why the spies won't sabotage every time, if they can't be eliminated. Either I'm missing something, or just haven't played enough mafia. :P
Does this look like a BM to you? No, it doesn't. Because it isn't one.

I have a theory that Dariush is some kind of elder god whose only weakness is newbies.

I don't want to say you're right.

But you're right.

While Dariush does tend to rage at newbies joining games that aren't BMs, I do agree that BMs shouldn't be skipped. People seriously should join the BM if they haven't played forum mafia here (or in some other place) before. Not doing so might result in an early lynch or lurking.

This game, of course, has no lynching, and is probably well suited to helping a newbie learn the ins and outs of actually dealing with other players, since they are guaranteed to last the whole game. :P

Anyways, We're good on player count now, so the game itself will (hopefully) start about 24 hours from now. By start, I mean I'll pick the spies, and give them a chance to talk, and then shut that down and open the thread. Anyone who signs up between then and now can easily be rolled into the game though, so sign up!

It will be well suited to allow them to FUBAR beyond all repair without getting lynched, and thus drag their errorful existence unrelievable by a lynch forever and ever. Seriously, letting a BMless newbie in a game, especially a nonstandard one like this has never once worked out in anyone's favor.

Okay, okay, if I'm gonna get this sort of response then I'll just drop out if it's going to be that bad. Someone else take my place, and I'll come back when Dariush'll actually accept me.

Just ignore Dariush. He's always angry about things that he's wrong about.

You lucky bastard. You literally said that less than a minute before I closed the thread and started the game. Now I need to redo the randomizer, but you're in. :P

Specifically, I only didn't close the thread yet because I forgot what quicktopic was called.

So! 24 hours till game starts properly, and here's the way it will work:

Of 10 players, 4 will be spies.

Each mission will require an increasing number of participants:
3
4
4
5 - This mission requires TWO attempts to sabotage in order to cause it to fail.
5

Note that there are five missions total - the first team to accomplish their goal three times wins.

Flavour will be posted once the "day" officially starts.

Game will start in about 23 minutes, assuming I still have power.
