Discussion Mafia Game "Discussion" Thread v.9

[Nuno]

11 people 3 mafia? how about 11 people two mafia with strong roles.

That's too revealing. It can be an assumption but to have it as a definite rule would be overkill. The town would instantly assume they have a Mafia Detective etc. There's many ways to balance setups anyway. If 11 players = 3 mafia, then the town can get strong roles for example to give them a better chance. It's up to the host.

Let Tom host again ^^

Tom doesn't like whores, I'm surprised. You would naturally wait for the whore as she has quite nice legs.

On a serious note it's pretty stupid with the new host business. If new hosts with co-hosts can't keep a clean game then it's pretty hopeless for people like Evil and DD to play, as they'd always have to baby sit. New hosts have to be aware of what Evil said after the previous "scandal". During the day: Keep yourself constrained. That's in terms of players bringing up things for the host to answer etc, so the host doesn't influence the game too easily, as well as constraint in liking/thanking posts. At night keep calm and take it SLOW. When I took over a couple games in the past (with help), I always took it super slow and double checked and double thought about every PM I sent.

I'm almost scared to try out hosting (and not just co-hosting/take over a game from another host) in the future now since so many have messed up lately. I'm confident I could do it but it's getting rather silly. I wouldn't want to join the fail list.

LoL game was excellent

Well that one went so-so, thanks to the new roles I introduced s My first game with 24 people + the new roles made this pretty hard, and things didn't go perfect. I guess people had fun though, and there was no huge mistake, but I consider the ToG and OP games a lot better, that went fluent and easily.

Last time I just was just too full of myself xD Thought I could do everything just fine after the last two games went good, and made a silly mistake early on. Oh well, next time I will go back to double check

Along with Imperium and Mido we are currently working on a system/guidance for that. In like finding the perfect formular to have a balanced game set up. It will take some more time, as a lot of things have to be discussed and opinions to consider, but that is a process that is necessary to avoid bias. I am aware that some people will still call it bias, but I believe a complete democracy in certain things is not possible, as it will not lead to sufficient results. Not even taking into account how long that would take. I hope the result will find more or less general acceptance anyway, as I do consider us somewhat experts with that matter. ;J

Following the balancing system, a proper Host-manuel will be written and presented by me. I will put all my experience in it to make it as foolproof as possible, but of course I am aware it will not completely eliminate host fails here and there in the future. Nonetheless it shall be a solid base to get proper directions on the 'how-to' stuff.

Mafia reveal there roles during the course of the game, usually after the first night we know there is a janitor, you are so dumb.

[highlight]Announcement:[/highlight]

Due to high host fail rates in past games, all new host and host applicants have to flawlessly nail a test digital and I set up before getting permission to host a game.

This test will contain basic and detailed knowledge about the Mafia Game, roles interactions and hosting topics. Anyone who feels confident enough to take on it is free to apply for the test.​

 

[Imperium]

Soon we will have a Mafia Game license.

 

[Farfalla]

Oh God, and I don't even have my driving one...

 

[MidoBan]

Oh God, and I don't even have my driving one...

at least this is for free

 

[Evil3ye]

Good luck mido.

I'm sure you can do this!

Driving license is a piece of cake in comparison to this.

Pfft, easy. Let me at it.

 

[Evil3ye]

Srsly? We have conditions. Zero mistakes, or you get off to prepare for retake in three months.

Apply via PM.

 

[Nuno]

Heil Evil!

 

[Riku]

I bad at exams. Someone else is gonna need to host my GoT game.

 

[Evil3ye]

Heil Evil!

What needs to be done, needs to be done. Can't be that so many people involved coordinate themselves, take off time of their lives to just be screwed by the host.

 

[digitaldude]

We should have set a time limit on completing the test...

 

[Riku]

Can I get more time if I get a doctor signed proof of dyslexia?
