The Mafia Discussion Thread

[Commander Sheepard]

So I just got done looking at Noir mafia today based on a recommendation...Man, that was something else.

You mean the fact that Wifey had the game set up to win when there reasonably should have been like 4 days left?

Still beats claiming beloved.

Yeah. She still marvels at how well that fell into place. Two free turns and free kills totalled town. A town divided based on sheer hell of flipping out. To be fair if there were not so many claims at the end she wouldn't have found the one person that could stop her. I thought town should have owned that game...until it started and wow...

Well the scum did have a pretty solid gameplan in place (even if I did wall-of-text post so much in the scum thread that even the other scum stopped paying attention).

Yes, it helped a lot. I agree. I had, at one point, fretted about Wifey ' s power. In many games, it would be sheerly horrid. But there was a rule in place that she could break her own hand at any time, effectively stripping her of any powers. In another way she could sprain it, blocking herself for just the night. That was one of the two hidden rules in the game and was done entirely in balance check. Sadly it happened at the very end, and the damage was done.

I liked the role of the kidnapper, and it was funny that the leader actually hindered the mafia while alive.

Once again, two more signups, and I can get Anime Mafia II underway.

Seriously guys, two people.

DCU is almost filled.

C'Mon Ego... You know you want to... I'm sorry I can't promise you Ambush Bug, but if he's in the game, then you've at least got a chance at getting him

When's the next newbie game? I need more practice

[EWB's Best Poster.]

Uhh I dunno when I had planned one. Guess I can start a sign up but... December. At earliest.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

I realise I just missed one, so wasn't expecting one soon. Good to know though.

I think Mafia fatigue is starting to set in on EWB again...

[Commander Sheepard]

Unfortunately, I think you're right. Mods having trouble filling games, lots of inactivity, all the usual suspects...Not to mention some of the frequent/better players seeming to be fatigued themselves.

"Let's run a 26 player game and keep sign ups open for a month."

Run 12ish player games and things are much better. Select non lurkers rather than first come if you get excess sign ups. Games are more exciting, more people will want to play, and those that do will be more engaged. Then expand to larger games.

Said the guy that left my 13 player game.

SHOTS FIRED!

It should have been 12!
