Tables Posted October 22, 2010 Author Share Posted October 22, 2010 Okay. I think everything is correct. If anybody notices any mistakes, normal procedure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybee Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Silly Tables. I asked for help with Summon Spirit MM. :P Though help with GG mafia is fine too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) Okay. I think everything is correct. If anybody notices any mistakes, normal procedure. You suck at me. Also, if people want a cohost, you should probably ask in this thread. Edited October 23, 2010 by Sue Sylvester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybee Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Summon Spirit mafia will likely start after TotA mafia is finished. I don't feel like managing 2 games at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriemhild Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Yeah, I agree that Proto is probably experienced enough. Can you link to the other games you hosted just for transparancy's sake? Edit: JB, you've run a few games, unless you want someone else to check your games it's not necessary. If you do then that's fine too (I seek co-mods often too). Was Greek Gods a mini game? If not I'll move it and yeah Sure thang http://z8.invisionfree.com/Cliff_Hanger/index.php?showtopic=14450 http://z8.invisionfree.com/Cliff_Hanger/index.php?showtopic=23105 None of them turned out that well, but both the problems occurred well after the game started.

Jaybee Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 After chatting with Amelia, it seems as though TotA mafia will either... A. Never start at all. B. Start on Boxing Day. I'll open up signups for SS mafia once I'm done with role PMs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 JB, if you want someone to check the balance, I'd be happy to do it for you. Now that I'm on the other side of the world, there's less of a chance that I can actually play Mafia and concentrate on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybee Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 (edited) K then. I'll PM you the role PMs for SS mafia once I'm done with all of them. EDIT: And pfft. I'm in Asia and I can concentrate on mafia just fine. =D Edited October 28, 2010 by JB25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fayt Zelpher Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I don't know if my mafia game is going to happen. Mostly because I don't think there's a chance in hack of getting 19-21 people to participate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riariadne Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I got 17 people to sign up for my game. You could get 19 easy. inb4lifeandorbkstartsayinghowitwasamiserablefailure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Lightning, I am ashamed. I could start complaining too! And I should send Fayt my thing since it's coming up soon. I just have like......wait, no, I think I finished setting the items and writing roles. Cool, I'm done. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riariadne Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Lightning, I am ashamed. I could start complaining too! >implying I care about your opinion on the matter ...

Tables Posted October 28, 2010 Author Share Posted October 28, 2010 Can anyone verifying a game make sure to post here when they're confident the game is going to be finished on time and balanced, so I can update the list? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiant Dragon Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 If I want to start a game, what exactly do I need to send to a moderator? Roles, obviously, but what else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tables Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 To start with, you'll need a game outline, roles (with descriptions of powers, especially for anything non-standard), and general useful information (PMs/No PMs, personal thoughts on balance (this is technically not needed, but if you try and explain why you think it's balanced you'll probably see where some of the flaws are yourself - if there are any) etc.) The general idea is though, the more information you can send, the better. Also, am I correct in thinking you haven't played many games here yet? It might be best to wait until you have, but if you're confident now in running a game and a verifier approves (I'd be happy to do this one), we won't stop you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deliriyum Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Would I be considered a modding veteran for mafia? I ran one small game that went well, and have played countless big games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tables Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 Hmm... I want to say yes. Your one game did run well, but it was a standard setup from elsewhere, so... I'm going to have to say I think you should have someone check. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiant Dragon Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 (edited) Also, am I correct in thinking you haven't played many games here yet? It might be best to wait until you have, but if you're confident now in running a game and a verifier approves (I'd be happy to do this one), we won't stop you I haven't had a chance to play any games here yet (the only game where I wasn't signed up as a sub was Lightning's most recent one...), but I've played many games in real life. I've also read most of the other Mafia game topics here, since I think they're interesting and fun to read. ...Is that weird? Anyway, I'll probably try and play in as many of the games that are on the queue now before my game would start, anyway. I've just started putting my game together (I have roles written and a spreadsheet made, but nothing's set in stone yet), and I wanted to know what I need to get on pen and paper Word now, and what I can afford to take some more time with. This is mainly flavor; I'm undecided about whether to make it a generic town vs. mafia game, or if I should try to make more of a story, with characters and feeling. It depends on how much faith I have in my skill as a writer. Edited October 30, 2010 by Radiant Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on how much faith I have in my skill as a writer. My problem with story games is that flavour often gives mafia members away. Take me and Core in Bizz's first game. We were lovers (character-wise) and on the same mafia team. So when I got lynched, anyone with half a brain should have (and probably did, can't remember) figured out that Core was the next logical lynch, even if he was innocent. I personally don't like story games. Others do. If you want to make it a story game, I advise you to be very careful with the full role PMs and stuff.

I haven't played in a game with story yet anyway. Add that with my lack of confidence in myself as a writer, and I'll probably skip the story, or keep it very simple.

I'm just pointing out that if you want to go through with it, you have to be incredibly careful. Yeah, I know. A story would be nice, but I don't want to ruin a good game of Mafia because I screwed up with the flavor. I'm going to get my ideas on Word and see what I can do. If I think I can pull it off, I'll try it. Otherwise, I'll go with the safer route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tables Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 That seems sensible. Judging from your posts, I have a good feeling about you as a mafia player... Anyway, feel free to start sending details my way when you're ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
