Actually, I like this.  If I get some time, I'll come up with a draft item list which I'm sure will need several balance passes.


It'll still be mafia- there will be a informed minority and an uninformed majority.

[webadict]

Can I help balance/name things?

[webadict]

Also, is anyone opposed to me putting BYOR 6 up yet? There's only 2 or 3(?) games in sign-ups right now. Plus, none of them seem to be crazy style, so wouldn't compete for players. Plus, I still need balancing.

[Org]

Eh. Whatever.

[webadict]

I'll wait for someone else to confirm. Mostly Zathras, Mr.Person, Mephansteras, or Vector, since I feel like they would be adequate people for go-aheads.

[Mephansteras]

Should be ok, I think.

[Zathras]

I'd suggest waiting a bit, until at least one of Supernatural, BYOR5.5 or Sorcerer's wind down, as that'd free the most interested players I think. Maybe give WWYDT a chance to kick off first...

Considering ~80% of the active subforum is in that, I agree.

I'm not starting it until after BYOR 5.5 ends. This is preemptively destroying waiting time.

I would wait.  I think we need a good gap between the beginning of 5.5 and 6, because ... well, frankly, 5.5 isn't working that well and has needed a number of replacements, and we're about to start WWYDT, which is a similar style of game (and also going to eat much of your player base's attention span for the next, oh, while.  It's not nice to compete between similar games... :I

Actually, what the subforum needs about now is another Paranormal, whenever Supernatural (or whatever JTF's game is) finishes.

[webadict]

You underestimate my laziness, and my preparingness for next round.

[Mephansteras]

Oh, I'll be doing another Paranormal or Supernatural, no worries there.

[Mr.Person]

I actually have to agree with Vector and friends. Now, two or three weeks from now things might be a bit different, so we'll see then. The rule I've found effective is about 3 or 4 role-heavy games running at the same time is about the max the board can handle. Right now there's SupNat 3, BYOR 5.5, and Sorcerer's Apprentice III running right now with WIFOM and WWYDT in sign-ups. So once those three ongoing games are finished, I'd say BYOR 6.3 would easily find its audience... unless another game jumped in front and stole all the players out from under you. Which, according to what Meph just said, it seems the two of you will be racing. Vroom vroom!

[Vector]

To be more specific: I don't think the board can handle more than one BYOR-style game at a time.

Well, if that's so, then I'll be fine making roles with what I get until I have a full game. It's not like I can't hold sign-ups. WWYDT has plenty of people, plus actually has a few replacements just in case, one of which is me. That will have gotten to at least the end of Day 2 by the time I start, and I'm pretty sure I can't steal people that are already signed up.

Plus, Paranormal is not a BYOR type game. Power-loaded: yes, but that's it. So, again, it's a different audience.

So, stop worrying. I can't steal an audience because I'm holding my play on a totally different day.
