A new EoFF Mafia

[Freya]

Hey, someone pay for me to go there to play too!

[Psychotic]

We'll just have another get together at my house and we'll play Mafia then. Unless you're too sick again.

I'm always too sick. *720 noscope kickflip*

I'd go so far to say as inaction is actually beneficial, especially early game when it's saturated with players. It's hard to be suspicious when people forget you are there.

I hate inaction. More often than not, they are actually town-aligned and just busy/apathetic, but I'll go after them all the same. I played up the inaction angle as a mafia member one time and it worked well until I just couldn't help myself. It's just not very fun to be purposefully inactive.

Many games (including ones I've run) have had inactivity punishments.

The most common way is to have a minimum posts per day phase rule: if a player does not post a minimum of 3 times during the day phase, they will receive a warning. If they do not achieve the minimum of 3 posts per day for the rest of the game, they will be killed.

I think we've done self votes. Complusive voting. So if you don't vote, you're voting for yourself.

We also use second accounts here so if say someone wanted to play but was too late, if someone is inactive, we kick them off and let the new person step in. That wont happen toward the end of the game but if it's the beginning day or so, we have done that.

I think we should have Mafia games more often. It's been over two years since the last game, which is a travesty. I'm always up for playing games!

[Shauna]

We should! Up until that last game, they happened like quarterly. xD

I think it's just the pressure of hosting that stops us getting more games out. Even just little games as opposed to big ones. Although, it is the 30th FF Anniversary this year, maybe we could do another anniversary game. Much to ponder.

Which reminds me, it's the year of the 30th Anniversary of FF. Should probably plan things to do. xD

[Fynn]

UGh, don't remind me XD


But yeah, we need more of these. And different kinds! Fast and slow ones, ones that give away a lot of info and ones that don't give away anything, alt-accounts and no alt-accounts. We can do it!

[Formalhaut]

I feel like I should actually get down to the Events committee and do some planning! I've actually got an idea for a forum game that was done very successfully a few years ago that might be fun.

[Fynn]

Just please do t let it be AA-themed

[Shauna]

make it ace attorney themed

[Formalhaut]

I've never known someone feel so strongly about a video game series before.

Don't worry, it isn't AA-themed

I'll write up about it in the Events page. Might also start something else up today if I have time in Timber Maniacs.

[Fynn]

I don't feel strongly about the game. I feel strongly about its madly undeserved popularity.

[Psychotic]

We already had an AA themed mafia so you can't ever do it again

[Shauna]

You just have to go more obscure.
