so internationals are approaching so good time for another Mafia game? Im happy to host and will come up with some ideas on a theme etc, will be based around standard game but I'll throw in some clues to work out etc as it seemed people enjoyed from Mitos game. One twist to help manage it as well, was going to do the lynch voting in private so young get one vote to pm me. It can be changed but all done via pm, as I can't keep tally at work will help me work out tables, plus thoight would be an interesting twist. I'll make a note of some ideas in thinking off later tonight. Unless someone one else wanted to host and had somethtig set up
I got asked by one person on this topic who was working on one. I think a pm is in order... I'll come back.
Hi guys, I'm the one Mito mentioned, I've created a setup for a future Mafia game that I wanted to run. Needs a few small tweaks but that's dependent on how many guys are keen to play so I'm good to go if you are. IBWT I'm also happy to wait for some other time if you want to run one next? My version is a Lord of the Rings (LOTR) themed game, it will be semi-open so all roles will be known, the only thing I will keep secret are a few hidden tasks that certain roles will get. The biggest change to normal Mafia games is that I want to reward good play and penalise bad play. So for example: If you're town, you'll be rewarded for lynching scum and penalised for lynching townies. If you're the town bodyguard, you get big rewards for protecting someone who was targeted, but only if they're town. If that person was scum then you get penalised. Mafia hitman will get a small reward for killing vanilla townies, but bigger rewards for killing town roles or other scum team members. Etc. You'll get the full details in the OP when we start, but essentially these 'rewards' will give you a better chance of surviving kill attempts, so it's in everyone's best interests to play the game well and make good choices. If you get a powerful role (like Cop/Mafia Hitman/SK) then you could become godly and very hard to kill if you make good choices in the game, but if you make bad choices then you'll be much easier to kill. Vanilla townies could also give themselves a good chance of surviving kill attempts if they vote well every day... Obviously we'll have character names like Gandalf and Aragorn etc., but they will have standard mafia game roles that we're used to. There will be 2 bad teams and a SK in the game (along with town) if we have a big signup.
I'm in Interesting concept Tennis, but by improving survivability (unless its in secret for only you as the host) won't the goodies know when they have protected someone good since they know they will become more powerful?
The bodyguard could also be the investigator role; protect if you think innocent, investigate without protection if you think bad Otherwise yes it is very powerful
The OP will contain all roles, and every role's starting "Fighting Ability" (FA). It will also contain all FA modifiers based on their actions, so this will be known. The few hidden tasks/rewards will change FA as well but those will not be known. However after this no one will know how the FA's were modified, you won't even know your own, only I will keep track of it. Or else as you say you will know if you made positive or negative actions.
I am doubtful with you running it.. Town stood no chance when you were meant to be a known innocent... How are we going to cope with you running the whole thing?!?!
