IMO in-character games are a bad thing - they distract too much from the scumhunting and into roleplaying. Even in the currently popular flavor-rich games (WC and OM) most lynches are decided by flavor, and going even farther is pointless.

[Toaster]

The one we did recently (Supernatural RP) suffered from poor attendance.  I think the general B12 style of scum hunting doesn't translate well into RP games.

If another one ran, I'd suggest making it flavor heavy (a la WC and OM) and making everyone's name (or alias) and (alleged) profession public information, thus giving the flavor claims a head start.



Any sort of post restriction seems to be fairly unpopular here.  I had tossed around an idea of a "post powered*" game, but it saw little support.


*Your posts (and the posts of others) influenced the use of you roles.  You weren't forced to post/not post anything, but certain things you and others said controlled how your role was used.  Examples- a kill that could only target the person you quoted the most, or a block that could only be used against someone that said your name three times in a post.

toaster, that post-based mafia would actually be awesome imo

or a "door mafia"

"door mafia"

Whuh?

I like the idea of a "post powered" game. It sounds interesting.

Hmm... if there's interest, I can run it after BYOP.  We can take it to the gametype thread, as well.

"door mafia"

Whuh?

whups, i had this in my mind for a while but forgot...

number of players: 8*
number of mafiosi: 4*
number of doors: 9*

*should be balanced better

every day, folks can vote to:
 a. send xxx to check door yy
 b. lynch xxx
 c. do nothing

if a, xxx is goes into door yy at night. he will either be killed, or he will gain an item.
mafia can chat freely, and they know which door contains the kill item.

if xxx dies, they die, and everyone knows.
if xxx gets an item, everyone is told, but the item is unknown.
basically it.

I would be interested in that too.

[Dariush]

+1 to post mafia. And door one too, can't hurt to try.

[TolyK]

just a note, i probably don't have time to do the votecount update things and such, so a co-mod would be nice if there are enough players interested.

[Vector]

Huh.  We've got 5 games running and fairly active.

Well done, guys!

[Orangebottle]

Except Ockhams has slowed to a crawl.
DAMNIT MAX WHERE DID YOU GO!?

[Orangebottle]

I just had an interesting idea.
3-role Mafia.

Basically, the 'mafia' would start as one person with three roles. If he gets lynched, one of the roles is removed and the original mafia is kicked from the game. Another player(chosen at random) has his role replaced with those two roles.

[TolyK]

That's an interesting idea.
But i want feedback on Door Mafia

[Mephansteras]

We do have a thread just for that sort of thing, you know.
