Well, I can't really promise my ability to get to a computer every day as of Dec. 11, but other than that... sounds great.

One of these days I really want to run a Bastard Paranormal. Just haven't decided how I want to mess with people yet.

Many more Aliens, perhaps outnumbering the town, some sort of X-Files gone mad thing?

Possibly. Mostly I need to decide what kind of bastard mod it's going to be. And how much of the bastard part is my role vs the rules set up vs the win conditions.

Mine would just be in the roles.  I could probably aknowledge a bunch of pledges beforehand.

I have bastard mod ideas, but I lack someone to run them (I and most people don't trust me as a mod) and they need a bit of fleshing out.

Bastard Paranormal: Everyone's a kook, half the agents are insane, the other half are random, spore spreaders act as death millers, there's a masonry infiltrated with a couple of Dopps, AND ON TOP OF THAT, the days only last 24 hours.

And you have 30+ players.

Game on.

EDIT: For bonus points:

Dead people are required to post in limerick form in the deadchat. If they post a 60 page epic poem about the glory of Mephansteras using liberal alliteration and iambic pentameter, they come back to life as a serial-killing zombie jester. If it isn't completely in iambic pentameter, they come back as a vanilla townie.

For the no unvote thing, make it so that the Mafia choose their kills BEFORE the game (for all the Days). This isn't a one-way street in Mafia. Both sides gotta take a hit.

Hmm. I think I still want it to be fun. That idea is a bit overboard, Arg. Funny, though.

hehehehehe... that's a pretty good idea, web.

Just to clarify, do you mean they have to, for example, pick their night 1 kills before the start of day 1, their night 2 kills during night 1 and so on?

That's one variation. But, I think it should be before game start.

How do you mean? Picking their kill order for the whole game before day 1? Picking who they want to kill before they even know that they're mafia?

They'll know they're mafia, but they'll pick their kill order during the first Day or before the game starts even.

Bastard Paranormal: You tell the players about hidden rules existing, role ambiguity, etc. Paranormal: Paranoid.


Then make it a mountainous game with Paranormal flavor.
