RPG Mafia thread (Path of Radiance ongoing)

[Conqueror]

I'm sure players can handle lurking through multiple games at once; after some consideration, I feel confident in the abilities of the playerbase to go above and beyond what is expected.

[Bardiche]

Sweet, twice as many replacements at one time!

You could replace out of one game to another!

It was a joke, people, stop taking it serious.

[Omba]

lurking through multiple games at once

Hell yes, that's just what we need.  :V

Nobody can handle raging at 2 games :V

This is probably true. I can barely handle raging at one.

Brb, channeling Lewis Black.

[WHMZakeri]

Does it still count if you get killed night one in two different game that are occurring simultaneously? :ohdear:

[Shadoweh]

Zakeri was killed N1! He was a Vanilla Townie!
Zakeri was killed N1! He was a Mafia Goon!

[WHMZakeri]

Phew, At least I wasn't a role.
I wonder how apparent the differences in meta would be if I did play two games at once, though.

[Shadoweh]

Zak is lurking through Happy Fun Time Mafia while posting heavily in Scummy Scum Mafia! If we lynch him here as town in the other he'll be scum! We'd need a third game for you to get killed in as a Third Party Survivor to collect the whole set

<.< Am I the only one who actually wants to do this now? Two 7-9 player games running side by side? I know -I- could rage at two games at once Or similar to the Team Mafia going on at Mafiascum, two seperate 7 player games where each player is a hydra to someone in the other game @_@

[Schezo]

If people did play two games at once I'm thinking they would start melding them together and pressing others for reasons from the other game. :V

[Pesco]

Until people can play one game properly, we won't be having two simultaneous games.

[ActionDan]

I don't know, you guys seem to do pretty well.  I came to play here because I thought everybody played better than those at MafiaScum (granted I'm still trying to get out of "newbie" status).

Personally, I'd also like to do simulatenous games because then we could shrink the game size. The three week 16 player games are a bit much for me; a nine player game that maxes out at four days would be a lot less nerve wracking.

[WHMZakeri]

I do have a concept for a mafia game that I stole borrowed picked up from the trash heap and fixed from another website I use to play at. The simplest way to explain the concept is "3 C-9 games happening in the same thread." Of course, that's getting way off the original topic, and requires at least 21 players give or take replacements, so I doubt I'll ever be able to run it.

Any way to make it 2 C-9 games happening in the same thread, with 14 players + replacements?

[WHMZakeri]

it would probably be more manageable, but the flavor inherent to it would start to fall apart.

...

okay, that's a really bad reason. I'll consider it.

[Faiz]

I don't see why having 2 games running side by side would be bad.
 
Of course, it leads to  a lot of META and [redacted]/Ongoing Game crap, but you can ignore that

[Omba]

People already have a hard time posting enough in 1 game. I don't think having 2 games at once would improve that. :V

YES! Every single game. With a minimum required post count per day.

[Pesco]

If we can have a game where nobody had to get prodded and it's not the same people posting all the time, that also produced over 1000 posts of content before midgame, we can consider having 2 games at once.

That's an incredibly stupid idea.

[GMOFucker: Makin' GMOs To Fuck 'Em]

that also produced over 1000 posts of content before midgame

To be honest, that wouldn't be very fun at all. <_<

Even if it wasn't chaff, reading 1000+ posts every time a re-read was necessary would just be painful.

[Pesco]

It's an indicator of quality posting if it generates that much discussion. Especially if it was from all the players.

If a Game generated that much quality discussion, no one would have to reread it because it would be a bastard mod game where there's no scum.

[Pesco]

No-scum bastard mod game ended in less than 15 pages IIRC :V

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

Can I be put in the queue to host DotS Mafia? >_>

[Conqueror]

Incidentally, the largest thread on this entire forum is the Zombie Apocalypse Mafia thread, with 1,404 posts.

Mathematically, that's not possible with 72 hour days.

Assuming mid game is the end of day 3 with a 14 player set up, thats 216 hours with each player having an average post count of around 70. Or in other words, one content post per player every three hours. Seeing as it takes me 3 hours to simply write a good content post, you're talking numbers that should never happen in any mafia game.

[Schezo]

Was it just me who read that as a "hell no" post or what? >_>;

[WHMZakeri]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was just an obtuse way of saying "Never in a million years."
