Would anyone want to play a game of Assassin in the Palace?

I was reading through their wiki and it seemed rather fun.

It does sound interesting. Took me a moment to figure out that the Assassin can daykill AFTER the lynch votes were made, thus preventing the Guards from using their knowledge of the King to publicly test for the Assassin.

There's the game where they lynched the king.

I have nothing against it, but you should implement some rules against quicklynching.

Yeah, but then the guards all starting voting for the king to make the assassin think that they know that he isn't king, and then end up killing him themselves.

   Well then that is there fault. Can't be helped if they do
not change their votes quick enough. That is part of the
game strategy you have to work with. Figuring how much
is enough to fool the assassin but not so much the king
gets lynched.

The assassin didn't even vote the king, as I recall.

I disagree.  It's either quicklynching or "come to a decision very quickly then lurk lurk lurk for the rest of the time".  The guards are more like scum than town, they want to say as little as possible.

The problem with quickly wagoning the king then jumping off is that it makes it obscenely obvious that the player is the king.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

Yeah.  Which is why you shouldn't do it.

"Random voting all over the place followed by sudden wagon" is my favourite approach.

Yeah, the best part of that game is getting Hammered by a guy who knew I was King.

And knew it was hammer.

After talking about it in the Gameplay Types thread, I started a Hated God game.

You may want to expect a long sign-up time for that. We have a lot of active games at the moment, an Supernatural RP and Dwarf Mafia already in sign-ups.

Also, if you haven't already, I recommend getting an experienced mod to help you with balancing.

I want to thrash it out some more and then wait
till I was done with 1 of the Mafia games I am playing.
