I love this board as well for games. Mostly on my Mac 🙂  
Anyone know of a great app for iPhone to read and post?  
I promise I’ll not get lazy - but I’ll love an easier way to catch up 🙂

I would love to. But if these things are going to attract nigh-50 people, I don’t know if I have the game design brainpower to think up that many non-Vanilla, Gastardable roles.

Easy enough. Three ring circus Mafia: 3 Mafia games for 15-20 people in one game with a shared town pool. 😉 Just make 3 little scum pools, don’t tell the little chickens and let them fret about. It’s geen YEARS since we’ve made a game… Don’t you think these boards need an enema? 🆒

But in all seriousness, I’ve got ideas for 30 person games. Plus half the fun’s just in coming up with the madness. TrumpMafia. MarvelMafia. Mafia of Thrones. Pratchett Mafia. Mistborn Mafia. ReMake Mafia. and my personal fav’s: the original ABC/Speech mafia games…

It’s scientifically incorrect, but very humorously correct. Pseudopod is up there with weasel and kumquat as one of the funniest words in English. If pseudopod is wrong, I don’t want to be right.

In case it is not clear, Naf, story, and I are planning the game right now.

I’m taking it we are all co-modding as well, which should pull all of us out of the game.

Is this right, Naf and storyteller?

That’s my assumption.

Hah! He left me off the list (since I was an addendum post). The secret scum lives to kill you all!

Yeah, and the town detective (me) who had been 100% percent correct in his reveals was actually in consideration for lynching when he fingered Sinjin as scum. Then eventually town stopped being silly and lynched her. Though there were still some non-scum that left their votes on me by the end of the day for some reason I never did fathom.

If I recall. You were Commisioner Gordon, the secret scum, and didn’t have access to the Scum boards and so didn’t have access to the scum cover roles. You made up the Killer Moth cover role out of whole cloth when the mass name claim happened. That was just one of the many crazy things that went down that game. (The penguin/mason name switcheroo between NAF and Cookies which serendipitously prevented Hal Briston’s Riddler from winning the game was also an amusing gambit.

Conspiracy.
