Anyone around here for Mafia?

So my life, which over the last six months has been about as lighthearted as Ground Zero, has cleared considerably. As it always does when that happens, my mind has turned to thoughts of lynchings and shoes and sentences written in blue and red. I have at least two game ideas I’d like to develop, and was curious if anyone over here might be interested in a game.

So… discuss.

I’ve never played, but I’d like to.

I always love me some Mafia.

Oh hell yes!

Always!

When do we start?

I’ll join.

I promised myself I’d make Canterbury my retirement party (go out on top and all that). However, I could be tempted…

Vote Johnny Bravo

In the middle of a mafia game on giraffe right now, but I could be convinced…

OK, well… I have two games in mind.

One is the usual assortment of complicated weirdness.

The other is an extremely straightforward game intended to force a bit less emphasis on powers and actions and a bit more on voting and strategy.

Any collective preference?

former; voting and strategy are lame

Heh. I agree :stuck_out_tongue:

The game I’m in right now I thought was about voting and strategy but it’s quickly turning into a mess of weirdness. We’re currently on Night 6 and Days 4-6 ended with our lynch candidate surviving for reasons no one quite understands. I like it just fine, but others are finding it frustrating as all get out.

I say run the weird one, so that when I eventually run a sequel to my game, I can just rip off your concepts. Saves me the hassle. :slight_smile:

Only played once and lost to Hal, so if he’s playing its time for revenge!

I want in!

I need 26 players total for the most epic, totally awesome Mafia game ever (IMHO) over at Idle’s board: Apocalyptic Mafia. It’s a multi-level game where players will have to participate even once “dead”. It also has some very unusual other mechanics and (I think) some never-before-seen roles. It’s also a one-time-only, never-repeat ruleset.

Oh, and to respond slightly more on topic, :wink:

I’ll play in any game run by storyteller, assuming I’m not already in a game.

Complicated weirdness, of course!

I’m sure that this can only end well for me.

OK, I’m going to ask the mods for permission to start a new game; if it is granted I’ll post an official game thread tomorrow and commence with sign-ups.
