Yeah, I don't really see a problem with that, as long as you're the only person posting; it'd be like a reverse mentor hydra or something. Just make sure they don't go blabbing off to anyone else in the game. :V

Updated the main post, setup is up now.

NekoNekoRex · « **Reply #481 on:** March 03, 2013, 03:34:45 AM »

/in, interesting setup.

I take it power roles do not get silos until DEFCON 1? Are the power roles each limited in quantity (to prevent everyone from choosing Cop)? If that's the case, what happens if the role we want is already taken, or do we have to make a top three or something?

Conqueror · « **Reply #482 on:** March 03, 2013, 03:41:30 AM »

Answered in the OP, but in brief:
If you choose another power role you cannot be a silo.
Only one of each power role will be in the game. Here's how it'll go:
I'll attempt to give everyone their first choice. If multiple people have the same first choice, I randomize among them. Then I take the players who didn't get their first choice and look at their second choice, etc. So yeah, send in a ranked preference list, but don't send in a ranked preference list of all the roles in the game unless you really would like to be the last choice in your list over missile silo.

When do we choose our roles? During confirmation phase? If this is in the setup post, I'm dumb and missed it.

edit:Defcon 4, I see.

Someone needs to pick the Day Vig and hit Serela in the face with a well-deserved as-soon-as-possible day vig straight.

Everyone nukes the player in the slot after his. Bottom player nukes top player.

Victory.

Only for the SK who can still win even if dead. That's actually a good idea but who's actually going to follow through?

Raikaria · « **Reply #489 on:** March 04, 2013, 12:04:29 AM »

/in on this hard. This seems interesting and fun and sure to result in zany events.

Only if everyone chooses Missile Silo and it's DEFCON 1

Uhm, I think the main problem with this setup is we don't have enough people to make it interesting. I mean.. there are enough power roles for everyone to pick something..
I guess i'll /in anyways though

I blame:

1) Excessively long day phases.
2) I'd nuke the shit out of Serela FOR JUSTICE!! anyway, and that'd be the only reason to play.
3) MOTK Mafia community.

So negative.

Bardiche · « **Reply #494 on:** March 09, 2013, 02:29:27 PM »

I'm a negative person after all.

Serela · « **Reply #495 on:** March 09, 2013, 05:23:46 PM »

I figured the long day phases would be because if you want someone lynched, a lot of people will be able to just launch a nuke at them instead.

NekoNekoRex · « **Reply #496 on:** March 09, 2013, 07:21:50 PM »

You could solve the problem of long phases with shortening them and adding in Universal Night Talk, with Cancelling Nukes being the only action you could take publicly during the night

i'm JUST not really interested in this game's gimmick and by that i mean it was a lot of words so i didn't read it and decided not to sign up (so 3)

to be fair that means i'm probably not in the proper mindset for mafia right now anyway

Eavesdrop - In DEFCON 3 or below, every time a member of an opposing faction communicates with another member of its faction privately during the night, there is a 5% chance the message will be intercepted and its contents PM?d to you. During the day, this possibility increases to 30%.

this is literally the worst role idea i have ever seen (luv u nnr)

I can play if you need people I guess but I probably won't really take the game too seriously; don't feel like gimmick mafiers.

Dormio Ergo Sum · « **Reply #499 on:** March 10, 2013, 06:20:37 AM »

From what I understand, it's little more than choose your role though rather than having some weird gimmick.
Unless you want to consider choose your role to be too gimmicky.

GMOFucker: Makin' GMOs To Fuck 'Em · « **Reply #500 on:** March 10, 2013, 06:32:43 AM »

yeah can't wait to see how he avoids fucking it up or if it will ruin the game like Postman did

guess it helps its open setup

GMOFucker: Makin' GMOs To Fuck 'Em · « **Reply #503 on:** March 11, 2013, 03:41:00 AM »

Yeah you can just

seperate all messages

into a few words

but it's still

a really stupid idea

since it's either useless

or OP

and entirely luck-based

NekoNekoRex · « **Reply #504 on:** March 11, 2013, 05:52:15 AM »

I actually thought of a few ways to work around it as scum myself, without needing to change the role.

I can agree it's kind of retarded though

Shadoweh · « **Reply #505 on:** March 11, 2013, 06:59:16 AM »

I would like to point out that telling Conq he's fucking it up is pointless as he's wholesale stealing these rules from previous DEFCON mafia games. I do agree that that rule isn't good to steal, because we have some pretty easy to i.d. posting styles and if huh what is town he'll be able to out the scum by whether they used 'but' and 'they're' too much.

NekoNekoRex · « **Reply #506 on:** March 11, 2013, 07:15:29 AM »

Well to be honest, the role really IS either OP or worthless depending on which messages (if any) the eavesdrop gets, and if the scum is taking any measures to make those messages encrypted or not.
