Refa Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) Maybe you could have one of the scum roles (well, the only scum role w/e) be THE FALSE PROPHET and if he actually lives till day 3 he blows everyone up who doesn't have a BPV. ...Never ask me to balance things ever.

Bluedoom Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) I'm thinking of a thing for anarchy mode but by the way this discussion's going, I'll probs call that variant Demarchy and see what the proposed anarchy mode can do lol.(If its popular with you guys anyway) More modes for voting, more confusion lol Edited March 25, 2014 by Bluedoom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) general whatever stuff: you'd have people lining up who they are going to shoot before voting in anarchy or w/e, so yeah good luck seeing people die that you don't expect to (hint: mafia immediately lose control of their daykills, basically giving town more kill control) the reason being is that if people do not shoot who they are meant to, you go shoot/lynch them, and hey look it's a mafia flip. it's basically hard as shit to balance. please don't use it.

euklyd Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) We should totally have a joke game like that, though. Could give mafia a concealed dayshot or two as well if you want to pretend that you're making an effort to balance things. Or make everyone's shots concealed, and be resolved with a random delay, and post who shot who some time later (like actual TPP). It'd be fun Edited March 25, 2014 by Euklyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunwoo Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 The last time I played a game where everyone (minus the doctor) had a dayvig, nobody wanted to shoot each other until the mod threatened to randomly kill a player for not shooting.

Bluedoom Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 lol eh if you took a standard large game there'd be at least 4 scum.So that's two kills from scum. Then you need to take into account the no. of town-sided misvigs. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluedoom Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Got that. Still felt like putting it out there, that's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBM Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 That's why I'd put in no talking and private kills on Anarchy phases- it prevents town from taking control of the mafia's kills and also gives the town a reason to pick democracy. Without democracy they can't get reads on anybody and the mafia will almost certainly win because the town will be shooting blindly and the mafia won't. So really you'd want to pick democracy at the beginning and then anarchy after a few phases to hurry things up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haze Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Potentially. ...I'm also compiling my notepad files on Loli Maids vs. Deadly Monsters so that's probably going into the queue soon (after what, 3 years of waiting.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prims Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 so for my next invitational, I'm contemplating using a gimmick where players receive a "basic" role, 10 points, then on Night 0, instead of using their role, they apply any number of 6 upgrades to customize it within the restraints of the set-up. each upgrade costs a variable amount of points. this would make the set-up dynamic and decrease the odds of somebody getting stuck with a role they find totally unfun to play. it'd also give the scumteam something to strategize about pre-game thoughts on this gimmick?

j00 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I'm not sure how that would work on balance if say, everyone chooses 1-shot vig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
