You-Solve-It Mafia Game

Can I be Disgruntled? :smiley:

brewha’s in?! Score one for the good guys!

BYAHH!!!

Count me in.

This is going to be a wordy game, isn’t it? Someone should buy Roosh that SD subscription and get him over here to play.

May I make a strong suggestion: No Substitutions! If a player is adjudicated to be not participating by the moderators, can you please simply mod-kill them? Substitutions make finding patterns and motivations much, much more difficult.

/in if still space

We were thinking, limited substitutions in very very special circumstances.

But that being said. PLEASE make sure that if you sign up you actually want to play. Mafia requiers a bit more of a commitment then many other games on the SDMB, and this mafia game will require more then other mafia games, because you will only have what you say to each other to rely on.
You won’t have to be online all day long, you don’t have to post 50 times every day. But you will HAVE to be willing and able to spend the time to go back and anylize what others have said and done in the past and then post your own thoughts.

OH and I am an idiot. I totally forgot to introduce our co-mod and the evil genius behind the dossier system, MtgMan.

PM both him and me on all official business PM’s please.

When are we starting? I’m in, with the caveat that I can’t participate very much for the next two days and I’ll be somewhat busy until the 20th. After that, I’ll be able to participate heavily.

NAF1138 hadn’t talked about it specifically, and we may on the planning boards, but I’m fine with it. The reality is that with no power roles the game balance is designed around players using communication skills to play, so there isn’t a delicate balance where if we off someone it throws the game to another faction. If a person can’t contribute to the conversation, then a modkill is fine with me.

This isn’t binding at this point, I’d like to discuss it with NAF1138 in private, but I’d like you all to know we’re looking at this point.

Enjoy,
Steven

We won’t start until tomorrow at the soonest. And it will be a Night start, so low participation will be fine for at least 3 Days (I am guessing. The scum may decide to jumpstart the Night and not take their full 48 hours).

IOW, I think it will be fine.

I’m going to have to check the opening color messages(yes, plural) and make sure they don’t run afoul of the SDMB post limits. So, yea. Wordy.

Enjoy,
Steven

This is going to be awesome.

Technically there is some fancy smancy stuff, but it’s all transparent, so it doesn’t rely on individual players being Mafia geniuses or break down if they’re not. It’s also not enough to carry one side or the other.

Enjoy,
Steven

Helloo!

Hawkeyeop, I have a * by your name because I am not sure if you will be around for the whole game as a guest. How long does the guest membership last (I don’t remember anymore) and would you be willing to become a full member?

Fair enough. Now that shouldn’t be a problem. Well at least as soon as the payment processes since it seems to still have me listed as a guest for now.

I see your Member.

points and laughs

I shall remove the star from future lists. Thanks!

So let me get this straight, 19 players and 5 scum, with no Doc and Detective. Those are some odds against the town.

::finds sub’s bench::

:: dusts off Place #1::

I’m up for it, but as with sachertorte, if you get some new people give them priority, the more new people playing, the better.

So you want to be #2 on the bump list, or #1 on the sub list?

(I am going to tell you the sub list probably won’t see much action, we have decided that mod kills are preferable to subs 99% of the time.)
