Requesting replacement for CF7.Um... Why?
Please be ready to confirm within 6 hours of accepting.
Game will start immediately once I have the confirmation.
I would be so /out because I actively dislike D1 and only tolerate it to reach the rest of the game ;_;
(I DON'T MEAN YOUR GAME OF COURSE SHADOWEH)
I think practice would probably help you not get lynched D1 (D1 apathy makes it easier that you get lynched as either alignment) so that you can reach the rest of the game.You act like this happens on a regular basis or something.
You act like this happens on a regular basis or something.
Even if you can't generate solid opinions you can post small things too. Defaulting to lurking regardless of alignment is going to make people not want to play with you.You shouldn't need to worry since I'm probably going to keep doing what I've been doing D1 no matter how many times I say I should lurk through d1, because I've been saying that for a pretty long time now without actually doing it
Practice has definitely helped Serela get lynched Day 1. He almost has it down to a science!
Holy super awesomes, I am like all written out and stuff! If capt.h wants to host his game first he better say so.
You are a Vanilla Townie.
You win when all the mafia members are dead.
Please immediately reply "confirm" or similar if you're ready, or PM me any questions you may have. The game thread is here.
You are a Mafia Goon.
Your partners are ___, ___, and ___. You may communicate at any time; I have created a quicktopic for you here.
You win when the number of living mafia members equal or exceed the number of living townies, minus the gunbearer.
Please immediately reply "confirm" or similar if you're ready, or PM me any questions you may have. The game thread is here.
So if the game started out with 3 townies and 2 mafia the mafia would automatically win?
/inI will join if everyone agrees to do this.
Note: If I receive the gun I will shoot in my first post. #YOLO
I will join if everyone agrees to do this.Even if they say they won't, people with guns go insane and shoot fast anyways. You know you want to play Hot Potatoes
Did he request or is he just not showing up?
Pretty sure BBM and HW know him so they could message him out of the forum or whatever if he's just missing.
NekoNekoRex was the one with the gun, though.
E: I mean I thought it was a joke but you edited the thread name and everything.
I confirm that I like eating underground edible seeds or w/e potatoes are called.

If we had a mafia quote scrapbook, this would be going in it. :V
Why is there not one of these?I think Bardiche is the cop.
[11:21] <Dormio> so shadoweh
[11:21] <Dormio> when are you starting signups
[11:21] <Dormio> for mirai nikki mafia
[11:21] <Dormio> Shadoweh
[11:22] <Shadoweh> okay okay god
Shadoweh, I'm disappointed at you for not linking this in the OP (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NI_fgwbmJg0).Sure go ahead and link that and scare away the
/in
They're probably busy with mafia on the forums they originate from *shrug*And i'll be DM'ing my own potato mafia.
Not the point obviously. I mean I know we've gone over this, it's not that big of a deal but it's still a nasty psychological effect that you're inviting someone only to inconvenience them. That and it's stupid to see a bunch of spammy posts once in a while. But okay maybe.I think at this point we've made getting the ten posts into an art form. All they have to do is not post about their OC that we're going to steal and sell to ZUN.
Alternatively the lurkers can come out and play.
not posting /inNO NAME GET BACK HERE BEFORE I BEAT A NEW NAME INTO YOUR FA-I mean I sure would appreciate it if you changed your mind! :<
I'm going to dethrone Kilga as the only maker of good RM games.gonna have to see this one firsthand.
If we get full signups by the end of the week (12 AM Sunday, EST) I will prepare and post an image of me wearing two of my hats at once, chosen randomlyAll of the hats at once and we have a deal :V
just make shit up to fit inMan that stage 6 was really hard, with the pattern, you know the one, I just died over and over!
"Yeah I keep dying a lot to the character with the weird hair color and the hat"
Also, 12 signups, you're all so close to making all my dreams come true! And avoiding playing 7 day Hangmafia!11 if NNR doesn't post his hat picture, 13 if he does.
All of the hats at once and we have a deal :Vthat would be difficult, I have very many hats, and just having them all on at once would be a challenge

Yes, *YOLO will be announced.
:(
this is why you finish your game before it goes on the queueMost people choose to be lazy since it takes about a year to get your game through the queue.
yo ill host aus mafia if Affinity and Edible still can't start signups within two weeks, cuz i'll probably be not grounded by then (a bit earlier but I'm not totally sure)
though I dunno if we'll even have 15 people at that time and I don't want to just pull an entire playerlist from sf. but my set-up and role PMs and everything are ready
Would someone be willing to Mafia Mentor me? I want to run a game, but I don't have any experience with Mafia, and I don't really want to play it.Gonna agree with Vhaltz that comodding would be the easiest way to learn provided you follow the game. If all else fails there should be plenty of articles out there for you to read.
I'd let SB run his game, I'm curious to see how SF games look like.Basically the same? I'd be /in for a 9p, anyway.
Where is PX? Does he wanna host?<_< I swear I can read lists, don't mind me.
Off-topic: I want to, as an exercise, write a program that essentially runs random scenarios given a specific setup and calculates town/scum win % that way (C++ or Java, probably, with each role being a class). It's really complicated so I'm wondering if a simple version has been done before.http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=The_EV_Project (maybe you could ask uμ how they came up with these numbers)
So then you're calculating town/scum win off of the law of large numbers? You'd also have to decide on stuff like if you want the lynches and nk's to be completely random or if you want town/scum to play to their maximum advantage etcThe goal would be to have a decently accurate simulation (which means factoring in all sorts of interactions and claims and more) without the program being literally as slow as a rock. You'd code "competent" play from Role X and insert it into any setup you want and see what happens. My idea was a tool that gets a list of roles and alignments (provided they exist in the bank - if not you could substitute with similarly powerful roles) and loops (200 times? 400 times? 1000 times?) and returns a result and wham, you've measured your setup. It might not be worth the time, though?
My first setup wasn't exactly designed with the idea of the doctor getting quicklynched 6 hours into day 1.teaspit.jpg
<_< I swear I can read lists, don't mind me.IIRC there was something like this on SF written in Python for a very basic setup.

The human element is the most important part of mafia though. My first setup wasn't exactly designed with the idea of the doctor getting quicklynched 6 hours into day 1.i take full credit for this 8)
Due to the nature of the above, the set up is unfortunately role madness (Don't worry, it won't be as bad as last time)I refuse to in until you guarentee it will be as bad as last time. :crosses arms: Momma wants her madness!
bleh that fanmeter makes me frown
but w/e
hopefully this game won't fail like the last one with a metertime
what does fanmeter mean
... I didn't ask Vhaltz to add me to the queue, but whatever. Anyways my game goes before his, I had the idea to host before him!
I'd need a co-mod to review my setup though since my sense of balance is probably the worst thing ever (I once made a 5p setup with one mafia, two bulletproof townies, a vig with one shot and a dayvig with two shots). I'd really appreciate if someone other than Vhaltz could help me with this because I'd like him to play (?_o)
Anyways, my game is obviously "Cosplay Mafia" \(owo)/
I'm always up for co-modding, just don't expect me to do anything once the game starts (doesn't mean I won't do anything :V )
Edit: holy shit that's an unnerving avatar, BT. What is it?Adorable goo dragon.
There's probably still a little time left before somebody signs up for the last slot, so I recommend that you check stuff around in the mafiascum wiki (http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Main_Page) or read at least part of an earlier game before the game starts to get used to the terminology, it'll help a lot and you'll be a lot less confused when the game kicks up :D
no role flips
I have read up on the entirety of mafaiscum wiki of all roles, and that I have followed a few games by Abert B. Rampage, whom I find as a current favourite of mine with his aggro style. The recent Mirai Nikki mafia is probably what drew me in to pull such a bold action as to sign up for my first net!mafiascum. The occurrence of actual, well organized role-madness mafia games in real life are rare due to coordination difficulties, but it is undeniably one of the most fun.O_O I appreciate the compliment to my modding but have you considered picking a scummer a little more.. interactive? Like coughanyoneelse but in all seriousness we always welcome new players
Is this the forum equivalent to face-to-face mafia with no flips whatsoever through the entire game? Probably the most frustrating game of mafia I ever played. I didn't even know we'd lynched scum day 1 until we got randomly endgamed.I can't think of a mafia setup I would want to play less then no-flip mafia. Surprise you won! too bad no one told you and you kept killing each other until only one remained!
Admittedly, some of the role madness games that only flipped role names (Kilgamayan's Moriya Shrine Revoluation) were practically no-role-flip games because the names tended to not help so much :V It led to a few silly shenanigans at the end.these kinds of games rule but aren't noflip. noflip hides alignment as well
these kinds of games rule but aren't noflip. noflip hides alignment as wellI know, I was bringing it up because they were talking about not flipping roles but flipping alignments, silly!

Megatokyo is still going?!?!i only just realized this post wasnt by schezo. how can you have that avatar and not be schezo.
hi my life is void of any entertainment whatsoever and i would like to join this mafia game so i can feel even slightly fulfilled :)
Alright, so I technically have 14 players right now. I'll allow one more day of sign ups if anyone wants to take Dormio's spot, but I'll start it if it doesn't happen.
i only just realized this post wasnt by schezo. how can you have that avatar and not be schezo.IM PRETENDING TO BE SCUM
[11:01:50] <~Dormio> "fuck idols" said dormio
[11:01:59] <~Dormio> "but dormio, you are the idols"
[11:02:01] <~Dormio> "fuck"
[11:02:06] <~Dormio> and that was how dormio became a co-mod
At this rate about half the playerbase needs to get lynched D1 for activity reasons.
Why the hell sign up for 4 games, that's insane :V
On a more serious note it'd be cool if the game started ASAP.
I do believe the words you're looking for there are actually "At least (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it) I won't be able to make a fool out of myself again for being lame and exceedingly terrible".
Me and Dormio play a game where we both jokingly want to wring each others throat
I thought my last game's play was pretty good when it wasn't D2 tho
I think you still fall a little short on that end when it comes to reading people who aren't HwI can't remember a game on this site where I was town and NNR didn't think I was scum so take that as you will
Isn't NNR's general thought process "anyone that doesn't agree with whatever I'm saying must not be aligned with me"? :derp:At least it's better than the flip side of that same philosophy.

Serious Bananas requests a replacement
I JUST WANT SOMETHING TO DO.HANGMAFIA
Since I'm not doubleposting anymore: My turn?Unless someone on the hold list is ready to host, yes.
So it would be nice if somebody could edit the queue.>Implying it hasn't already been done.
We generally have a problem of not enough players, not too many, so don't worry about taking up someone's spot.this
It's a miracle we actually had volunteers for 4 people replacing out, which is abnormally high even for motk. Then again, HW didn't even want to play when he replaced in ???i never want to do anything so
>Implying it hasn't already been done.Implying that the setup's flavor name and number of players weren't there before. =)
play (Mafia) without being shouted at
Scum not being able to talk in their QT during the day phase is super lame because it's possible that they have massively different timezones which means they have no time to discuss things and might outright miss actions. Any chance on you changing this?Uh, this was decided a while ago so I'm not 100% sure what my thought process was. But I probably didn't give timezones a fair enough consideration. In fact I'll just change it back now. <_<
Volunteering as a Co-Mod; I need to get some experience in before I run my own game anyway.Normally this would be redundant due to timezones but it's the middle of the semester and I don't think I'll be able to format votecounts from my phone so this works. A third comod would be ideal.
Is *YLO announced?Yes. Updating.
If you've read some past games and/or played this sort of game before and know what's expected from you, I don't see a problem.I've at least read through the last game, although something tells me I should probably head off and find a less "wat" game to read through sometime too. Other than that there's not really a problem, so sign me up!
Is that effort bar a restriction on how many words we can post or a mandatory you must post this many words to not be replaced?The latter, but it's pretty lenient. If you don't post 400 words a day, points start to stack. You can just make up for it with activity++ at one point and escape the danger zone. (All this is a way to ensure a slot has enough stuff to analyze overall.)
Are hydras allowed?I prefer no hydras. I won't ban them outright but please do without if you can do without.
it literally took me several weeks to get motivated enough to find 10 places to post
I feel like playing by yourself is better experience than you would get by a hydra.
I should have put posting a video of yourself playing EoSD as a requirement for joining. You scrubs.it's okay if we play on easy and cant get past sakuya right???

The bar doesn't go negative.Damn. I can't build up a -5000 bar D1.
I guess I'll /in since I can do 400 words in one post.It was originally 500 but I chickened out.
New players should totally jump in head-first. I mean, look at me, it only took me a whole D1 to figure out what a case was and three games to realize I was playing town wrong.Please teach me how to play town right. I still don't know.
I got my dick caught in the ceiling fan.This somehow feels appropriate for a lot of emotional states you're in when you're town.
Oh hey, Cheez8, I think it's you from the Talkhaus. Hello!Sure is. 'Sup?
(But really, making sure people have the right idea and THEN letting them in is a good plan. I'm kind of assuming Cheez9 knows what he's doing here.)It probably depends. I've played several mafia games before, and very few of them have been so heavy on the psychoanalysis stuff (particularly on Day 1 since I'm more used to starting the game with night phases.) Basically, I might not be good at doing the right things yet, but I'm fully aware of what the wrong things are and I'll avoid those. It's still your call.

Oh, god. I'm playing SK (1 time bulletproof) on other forum and i managed to pick a player with a counter attack and got myself shot on the first night. And then mafia!scum shot him too and he died.
Btw if someone is following the game but doesn't want to play, I still kind of want a midnight votecount person.
I'll still be up that late. Got some Bloodbowl to play. In fact the way my timetable is structured right now my usual time of going to sleep is like 2~3am right now. I can handle the night shifts.:fail: Whatever you say Rumia.
might wanna edit that out just in case, since ongoing and you never know where people are lurking!
It is almost s disturbing to see a mafia post where PX uses more then 12 words in an argument as it would be to see Rawr use proper grammar.
D1s that are too long can make the game unreadable for replacements and rereads. Like, I saw a game with a 4198-post day one. That should never happen. >_>What??? where the hell was this?
What??? where the hell was this?Fire Emblem: Awakening mafia on mafiascum.
2) Each day has one lynch. Vote with ##Vote. Remove votes with ##Unvote. The majority vote gets lynched and flipped, thus ending the day.
##Unvote
Vote Serela
15) No Lynch is a legal vote and No Lynch is a legal outcome. No majority means No Lynch. I will not be picky with unvotes so don't expect to win through pedantic stupidity.
imo, i think the following votecount is very relevant to current game state:Modkilled for spoiling the setup.
Shadoweh (6): Sky_Paladin, Validon98, Polaris, NekoNekoRex, Darkninjaabc, Dormio

At the end of D2. Wow, you guys need to read this game: http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=36597 on how to break open a role that can't give info about why they're voting someone.

kept pushing for NoLynch and how it's more beneficial, and people just went with it, because hey, NoLynch is awesome......you cannot help those who will not help themselves
Because of overwhelming support the moment I brought it up in irc, I decided my next setup I'm using will be "Choose Your Own Mafia Anonymafia" where you sign up as a mafia game from motk's past!Are you going to make the roles ahead of time? I don't think I trust you to balance 12-13 seperate mafia games...
Are you going to make the roles ahead of time? I don't think I trust you to balance 12-13 seperate mafia games...Shadoweh do you seriously expect me to not only write all the rolepms at the last minute like I always do, but actually -design and balance the entire setup AFTER everyone's already signed up-
I mean I'll think up a proper way to deal with it eventually but for now I'm open to ideas and whatnot.I don't think this needs to be complicated. "Putting your game on hold gives you 3 games before yours gets dropped from the list" and people on that queue right now can report their status or whatever. If someone knows they can't host a game in <insert timeframe> they can make it known in advance and it'll be fine.
(Let's ignore the Night Spirit thing from the previous game, that's the only time it's come up in the 3~4 years I've been playing here and probably shouldn't have been a thing)that barely even made sense because whether stoneeye/shakespeare/finalboss are ghosts is never even stated
CF7:Knowledge of flavor is never required! (Let's ignore the Night Spirit thing from the previous game, that's the only time it's come up in the 3~4 years I've been playing here and probably shouldn't have been a thing)Having knowledge of flavor in regards to Night Spirit gave me the completely wrong idea of the role's alignment, actually.

(Let's ignore the Night Spirit thing from the previous game, that's the only time it's come up in the 3~4 years I've been playing here and probably shouldn't have been a thing)Oh... I'm evil then. Because my games tend to be quite flavor heavy... On other hand it makes it easier to understand them, since my roles tend to be also quite flavor heavy and thus you can sort of guess if the role claim is true or not.

Anyway, /in and all that. Whee!
Might be a good idea to get one beforehand tho if you want your setup checked for balance.Oh... Eh? Huh? What is that balance thing you're talking about? Balance is a myth.
I could co-GM for you, CF7. As an added bonus we both currently have Cirno avatars.Well it won't happen in near future anyway, but i'll keep that in mind.
I would like the chance to co-GM at some point in the future prior to running my own game here. I won't be offended if you want somebody else, either.
Oh... Eh? Huh? What is that balance thing you're talking about? Balance is a myth.It's usually better to spread out power more then that to reduce the effects of Random Decision Gods. One 3-vest player isn't nearly as useful to town as three 1-vest players.
Actually i try to make my setups balanced, but all balance goes out of the window, when random decides to play a cruel joke on you. For example, in my last game, player had 2-shot bulletproof shield. There were 3 kill attempts on that player. By the end of the game when town lost, he still had his 2-shot bulletproof shield.
It's usually better to spread out power more then that to reduce the effects of Random Decision Gods. One 3-vest player isn't nearly as useful to town as three 1-vest players.There was a doc, sort of a weird mix of role-blocker/bodyguard and 4 roles with various degree of protection. Main reason that the town lost was, that as i wrote earlier there was a Survivor player who pushed for no lynch and people going along with it. Also there was a kill-powering (he becomes stronger after each kill) SK. He hadn't killed anyone and actually died on 4th night by attacking a player who had 1-shot counter-attack protection.
Having power concentrated one only a few roles can really "swing" the game depending on who dies first, which mods usually want to avoid.
I suppose that's not a good game to showcase your balance skills, then ^^;;You can't tell that without knowing the full setup. =)

So random was really weird in that game. And if town can win, when town is apathetic and indecisive, well... It's not a balanced setup at all.
This entire paragraph says you should get an experienced person to actually look over your setup before running it here. <_<Hm... What makes you say that?

/me douses everything in lava
14:14 here. So. ROLES YOU PROMISED! :VIt's 1917 here.
Clearly I should replace. :derp:
If anyone is available to replace CF7 in case that's the route he decides to go, that'd be much appreciated.I'm currently buried under mountains of work. I just don't have the time, sadly.
Someone could run an EIMM game over Christmas maybe?
I was hit by a car on the way to work o/
tell my co-workers what happened, and they were giving me pretty 'Why are you even here' stares!I'm bad at driving and have a lil' motor scooter, and as soon as I moved to a place 6~8 minutes away from work instead of 1.5 minutes of straight driving with no turns or lights or significant traffic, I started getting in an accident like once a month and bandaging myself after walking into work
I started getting in an accident like once a month and bandaging myself after walking into work:ohdear:
or me falling over and then sliding slightly under the vehicle infront of me
Yes I'm Serelaey even IRL
How is that even a 'minor accident'?Well, it was stopped! (This is why it happened- they unexpectedly stopped in the middle of a road for a U-turn and was one of the rare, rare people who drive below the speedlimit that my scooter barely reaches so they were actually kinda close) They didn't even really notice, they just kind of drove off. I think them doing so put another big scratch on the scooter since it was slightly jammed in, but that's not really a big deal, there's plenty of those >>
With how slow this game is going, we probably should have ended the year with HW's game as per tradition anyway.
If another game is ran before the break methinks there will be even more replacements than this game had.
Yeah no one would play through New Years and their hangovers the next day. Just wait for January
Not a good system, mods will be less and less motivated to ready their game as time goes by. IMO the "off the queue you go after X games" idea is the most solid thus far.What he said.
IMO run drunk EIMM.Seriously we should do this!
can someone please explain to me what's going on with the titles of Kilga's vote counts
are these all things that happen in Utena? Because if so it sounds like a...very special show.
IMO if your game isn't ready when it's time, put them at the end of the queue.I'm more of a 5 minutes before deadline kind of guy.
It's not as much fun if you actually want to be strangled. :<
not to mention their team was 1-shot day vig / BP / 2-shot ninja vs GF / Encryptor / Roleclop.
If the first team doesn't utterly destroy the 2nd 99/100 times then I don't know balance and I'll eat a hat

Sky, I know you flipped town, but keeping reasons for you suspicions to yourself is not townie at all. Your play kind of reminds of this guy who joined a game I hosted and then tunnelled another townie (despite the fact that he was probably playing the best game I've ever seen him play) and refused to give any reasons at all till they were lynched and generally got everyone annoyed. Don't be that guy.this post was about cowbell btw.
Yo, plunk me down for hosting Pok?mafia: Explorers of Sky in either two years or two days depending on how many people don't have their setup ready.
It won't be two days; MotK mafia goes on break for the holidays [Imagine the lurk with the holidays!]; and my setup is ready to go now.I didn't actually expect it to be two days. The entire list would have to be unprepared/busy for that to happen, and from what I've seen only about two-thirds of the list is usually like that!
mafia sucks
Balance cannot be assured. Especially as Prims didn't answer when I contacted him with my revised setup.dun dun duuuuuuuuuuuuuun

I think the allure of this possibly being a trainwreck is what's making people sign up. And stay away. But it can't be worse than it's namesake.Well it should be glorious, anyway.
Right?
...Si non confectus, non reficiat. ITT, are you that eager to turn into ashes again?
[Also look at it this way; the quicker we get this done the quicker we get Villains Anonmafia II. And that comes with me possibly doing something as awesome as Villains Anonmafia Dio again.]
Si non confectus, non reficiat. ITT, are you that eager to turn into ashes again?
Don't remind me of Villains Anonymafia ;_;
It is also three words that you shouldn't really be saying in mafia anyway. Why would you say Water; Air or Heart? Gut sure; Heart? No.Actually, those words are used fairly frequently.
Is this game going to start...?
I'm now removing that rule. Was supposed to be a harmless gag at the expense of the 'CAPTAIN PLANET' roles but if you guys feel strongly against it then fine.
further proof that dan is evil: he only wanted to play this game when it had no heart
I'll hammer signups if they get to L-1.
So yeah, /in. >_>
Well you just put signups at L-1.
Well that was possibly the longest signup ever.Nope.
This is you, playing mafia. (http://static.existentialcomics.com//comics/fallacyMan1.jpg)
did stupid crap. of which serela snapped me out of it.most depressing thing posted in a mafia game

This is also me back in Critical Thinking like 5 years ago.I legitimately took Critical Thinking so I could play Mafia better.
Didn't Affinity want to run his game next?
Have people played a Survivor-style mafia before, where the "dead" players vote for the winner?No, I've seen it tried and die from inactivity but with a dedicated playerbase it should be easy to try.

The obvious strategies for Town are lynch a majority of towns into the graveyard
This doesn't set alarm bells ringing?Be surprised. I played around with an idea of a reverse mafia before, where the mafia wins if they're eliminated. Not that I remember much about it right now. I think either the mafia had no NKs or they couldn't commit suicide.

I think either the mafia had no NKs or they couldn't commit suicide.That sounds innately stupid, the whole game would be about trying to get yourself killed while not trying TOO HARD to get yourself killed. Since the Town has to die as well to win (someone has to get lynched, after all), every player has the goal of "get lynched" and thus the game becomes "convince the town you're town so that they'll kill you."

I think it'd play out like normal mafia but with different priorities with that in mind.
How the hell do you even play that? Does it play out like Nuclear Potato Mafia where the gun gets passed around?
Nah, all you really have to do is townhunt instead of scumhunt. I think it'd play out like normal mafia but with different priorities with that in mind.Scumhunting is hard when everyone is suicidal. At least in normal Mafia everyone has the idea of "no kill him instead" and the scum will inevitably sound scummier trying to do this then the town, because :interactions:
Why wouldn't you just shoot yourself? >.>I assume the rules prevent that though, since it's compulsive.
God knows MotK setups tend to have a boatload of PRs at least half the time >_>

I hosted that once :)I also think it's town-sided- in regular mafia, bad town play leads to lynches that are more likely to be harmful for the town than beneficial, because there are more town than scum. In this type of game, where the majority wants to get lynched, town is rewarded by bad play because a randomlynch is more likely than not to be successful.
I think it is innately town-sided because as the Mafia is eliminated people have interactions to townread people on and the Mafia has less of a voting block. Sure, that applies normal Mafia too, but there scum just has to lynch anybody else instead of getting lynched themselves.
NNR is next on the list. Mine (which we've been discussing) is sixth or seventh after that depending on your indexing. Plus there are all those on the postponed list. How does that work anyways?I think they can cut in at any time, although imo they oughta be put at least one or two games down the queue when they announce they're ready. Maybe make an exception if they can only mod during X dates or somesuch
I find it amusing you outright state Captain Planet isn't in the game when you're the one who started it.EXCUSE ME? :C
I find it amusing you outright state Captain Planet isn't in the game when you're the one who started it.I've never had a Captain Planet role in my games before. I dunno what you're talking about.
It has come full circle.
I realised while I was making food.Another game with Kyuubey...? I can only think of the not-anon Darker than Black. Ahahahahaha oh god poor Helepolis, Pesco is best troll
Both games had Kyuubey in and were anon games OK? :derp:
exact definitionsfor refrence, I plan to be a lot more lax then this. Hell, many of the roles wouldn't pass these definitions.
Etheldreda (Demonbane)ahahaha what the fuck is this literally the second google image search result was ecchi
yukari isnt a villain shes my waifu fuck you ntr
e: ahahaha what the fuck is this literally the second google image search result was ecchiall i get is stained glass :(
i guess that means it's dormio!
Hitler (Real Life)I'd argue Hitler isn't really a villain, I mean he killed Hitler.
looking forward to this playerlist filling up with characters I've never heard of in my life!
Whoever signed up with Hitler, please don't be that person. (If you really wanna have edgy teenage fun, at least make it MechaHitler from Wolfenstein 3-D.)(http://i.imgur.com/RGLqgyv.jpg)
I didnt know there was a godzilla movie named "Godzilla" ::)
...Well, according to Danbooru is the angel a trap, but I guess it's some kind of "as you like it" thing.^^;
EDIT 2: The beatmania person is an exception since she's not recurring.
LeBlanc (Final Fantasy X-2)
I imagine someone named Havelock Vetinari arises every millennium, or perhaps it's the same guy each time.He won the last Mafia game
Huh, guess it's something up with Chrome then. I probably need to clean up some of those old extensions.
Prims uses Opera because he is a browser hipster with terrible tastes and a love for half-functional features.i've been using chrome for ages now actually
ITT we discuss how certain sciences help you play Mafia. Purvis, how well does economics do?
I use my software engineering degree to achieve nothing but netting innocent townies.
Maybe I should write a mafia solving software so I can automate the process of getting it wrong.
Even if you don't find scum, the ability to say 'This player is 100% town' is very powerful.Fair enough, but why would people believe me?
Because you're the cop!For srs. If nothing else scum would kill you for being the cop and THEN everyone would believe you.
DON'T LET ME LIVE TO LYLO GUYS.eh....okay.
[Although most of my LYLO was defending myself fom silly cases]
Now, that thing I said I learned and could apply to mafia,
We were looking at 'Roles in a Team' and did one of those tests to find them out.
Roles being:
Chairman/Co-Ordinator - Good at delegateing tasks, and 'leading' things
Evaluator
Implementer - These two are kinda the same in mafia, these are the guys who do the summing up of all the cases everyone else has spat out
Finisher - Self explanatory
Shaper - Persues objectives, challenges the team to improve
'Ideas Man'/Plant - Creators of ideas, usually the ones who think outside the box
Team Builder/Worker - Also kinda irrelevant
Contacts Man/Resource Integrator [Irrelevant to Mafia]
Me? I'm a Shaper and Co-Ordinator, and scored awfully on Ideas/Evaluator/Implementer. This can be seen in three things:
1: I'M ALWAYS THE ONE TO START THE GAME. I kick us out of RVS and get us moving towards the objective.
2: I'm usually really really bad at actually making cases.
3: I'm always nudging inactive players to actually contribute.
So yeah, if any of you have done these teamwork tests before, feel free to share how yours correlates... or doesn't, towards mafia.
Actually if you take the test, that's not possible.
You're given statements, which are grouped. You have to split 10 points between three of the statements.
You will always have a preference.
Innovator = Plant
Expert = Specialist
Chairman = Chairman/Co-ordinator
Analyst = Monitor/Evaluator
Team player = Teamworker
Explorer = Resource Investigator
Driver = Shaper
Executive = Implementer
Completer = Completer/Finisher
I am apparently super-balanced and plain? <.<you could say you're vanilla
WHERE IS THE TEST
You could link it and we could compare!

Kills preventing kills and roleblocks preventing roleblocks should use the same logic; either both or neither.While I can understand on roleblocks, I don't think kills work that way :V
While I can understand on roleblocks, I don't think kills work that way :VThe "canceling" paradox of roleblockers isn't a big deal anyway. I mean, one way or another the actions gets wasted regardless, since chances are the roleblockers aren't doing much else by targeting each other. Unless it's a jailer or somesuch, but even then, big deal?
The roleblock puzzle is actually a little hard because if both work, you have a paradox (they both roleblocked eachother, but their actions both failed to work? Or neither managed to do it, why didn't their actions take then?) but ITP > Scum > Town is a simple solving order in terms of what you tell the players- since in almost all situations neither actually ends up having an effect on the game in this case, but what you tell them matters a lot to how the situation is interpreted.
Anyway, action priority only matters in special cases, generally. Or if you're one of those mods that lets kills prevent actions. For the vast majority of setups, "everything resolves at the same time" is adequate.
In my games abilities priority is usually like this.
Passives/conditionals.
Blockers/Redirectors.
Watchers.
Investigators.
Bodyguards.
Others.
SK kills.
Mafia kills.
Town kills.
Doc.
Other actions.
Considering blocker's paradox, both players will get "action failed" as a result.
If my interpretation is correct, in your games doc ability has lower priority to kills.
So basically docs are fillers in your games?
If my interpretation is correct, in your games doc ability has lower priority to kills.Doc acts after all kills went through and patches up his target after it was already shot. If doc is shot, then he can't save anyone that night. Unless he targeted himself of course.
So basically docs are fillers in your games?
Blah blah blah priorities, I used to play games with long ~*~secret~*~ priority lists. It was important because you had stuff like faction-specific roleblockers and kills and redirecting abilities. The games played here don't have as many abilities flying about so there's no need for a priority list - it's easy enough to just work it out in your head.You haven't seen my role-madness setups. :V
Will the signups fill up before the thread locks?!?!
I feel responsible for this discussion, mostly because I don't think priority speculation wouldn't be nearly as hot a topic if it weren't for the one time that literally impossible set of night actions came up. :ohdear:It was a problem in my game before you asked, because I had everyone and their mother asking me about priority and we had two blockers block each other. And apparently they think it's standard I have some complex master-table of interactions and priorities.
Me: @Mod: What would have happened if Kaori (Jailer) would have targeted Farina? Wouldn?t it mean that our role (bus driver) caused us to end up being roleblocked?
Conq: I don't think I can answer questions about complex role interactions like this.
Pesco: Conq means it's too much effort to figure out what would happen :V
Me: Then I guess ?0h my g0d Serela we caused a parad0x 0_0 ? would happen.^^;;
The vaguer the information Town gets, the harder it is for them. We were in Potentially Lylo, plain and simple, and it was only when that was messed up that Silver's role and townness was questioned.Silver was "practically fucking confirmed town"
Silver was "practically fucking confirmed town"
Why would you question him? He had a watcher confirm scum targeted him, for god's sake. A Scum with only harmful targeted role actions, at that.
There is absolutely no reason why he should not have been treated as town. Especially once the ITP was gone, since that just sealed the deal he couldn't be anti-town.
It wasn't even privileged information. This is stuff that was publicly available, with claims and flips.Bates made the initial case on Rider, giving him just as much cred as the counterclaim.
Long John counterclaimed the scum doc on D1. Proof: The scum doc's flip.
Rche, who was dead (and a flipped scum with roleblock), targeted Long John, as claimed by a Watcher (who shortly died afterwards and flipped, proving his role).As I said, if Silver was lying about his role (which scum do), there was an explanation for Rche targeting him with a roleblock.
It wasn't even privileged information. This is stuff that was publicly available, with claims and flips.
I wonder why the person playing Glados wanted to stay anonymous, given the number of players who commended him or her for roleplaying.
As I said, if Silver was lying about his role (which scum do), there was an explanation for Rche targeting him with a roleblock.
Silver was "practically fucking confirmed town"Maybe it was all those town quicklynches...

I thought about sending a PM like that but I don't remember actually doing it. Also they're spelled "Fritos"
It's funny because I thought you weren't playing for sure. Nothing can hide you from my affection Bardiche!!!! ☆〜（ゝ。∂）

Oh yeah, there was also doubts about Silver's role being true because it was suddenly Real LYLO?! Whose fault was that,...
Bates made the initial case on Rider, giving him just as much cred as the counterclaim.
Shadoweh why did you have to do so many scummy things, even if some of them were by circumstance?Raikaria why are you so bad at looking beyond the surface of things?
Suddenly protesting really hard Yukari was 3rd and then it becoming clear that the scum hit her unclaimed vest, making me at least think you suddenly knew she was 3rd because you hit her vest for example :/
