Should I make a thread in this (sign-up) forum for sign-ups for my Wheel of Time mafia game?

If I were ever to do a themed mafia game, it would be Elite Beat Agents/Trauma Center/Phoenix Wright combined.

oh, sorry I didn't see this. Sure, you can start it. Let me know if there is any restrictions against making a thread in the Sign-up subboard.

Lordmanimani, could you explain what wheel of time is? Also, Erniewan, mafia would need a secret forum.

Post by Erniewan on Jul 11, 2007 22:09:28 GMT -6
So yeah, just make a new Sign-ups thread in this subboard. And I suppose I will have to make a secret mafia thread, unless I'm not in the mafia, in which case the thread ought to be in another forum so's I can't look in.

IF you want an update, I need 11 more people. Also, since I couldn't expain to Reid, I was banned from the SM forum for 3 days 2 days ago...long story...I don't wanna repeat it AGAIN. If you must know, ask rockwell.

Since I am probably gonna be banned for a while on SM, I think that I will move the game here....Or maybe I can start a new one right here. What do you think, erniewan?

Post by Erniewan on Jul 17, 2007 11:25:31 GMT -6
Yeah, go ahead and move it here. It's fine with me.

Yeah, that's a good idea EBPS, that way I don't have to travel to too many different sites to play Mafia!

Actually, I'm not banned anymore, so I guess itll stay on SM.

I wanted to host either Star Wars, Chrono Trigger, or Villain Mafia (or maybe something else cool) but I think I'll wait until at least one of the games I am in right now is over.

If you do Star wars, base it off of the original trilogy, 4, 5, and 6. A mafia game where the good guys were the mafia would be pretty cool. It would add a twist.

Here's a tip to everyone. Dont base mafias off of themes with few characters unless you're going to do twists like Caleton said. It makes the game too easy to win for the town with a simple name claim.
|
|
|
Post by Erniewan on Jul 18, 2007 7:21:42 GMT -6
True. In Villains mafia, everyone would be a villain, so there would be little or no point in role claiming.
|
|
|
Post by Caleton on Jul 18, 2007 11:01:42 GMT -6
In my idea, the game play wouldn't be different. If you did Star Wars, Darth Vader would be a townie. and Luke Skywalker would be mafia.
|
|
|
Post by Erniewan on Jul 18, 2007 17:16:22 GMT -6
Yeah, see then after two bad guys turn out to be townies, then everyone will have it figured out and start lynching good guys. A twist, but it doesn't stop name claims from carrying the game. See, in Villains mafia, there would be bad guys on both sides, so you would actually have to analyze people by their gameplay, like normal mafia. The roles would serve to add flavor though.
|

Post by Caleton on Jul 18, 2007 17:37:42 GMT -6
No, I'm saying the game play would be exactly the same, the only difference is the names of the characters. Townies would be Darth Vader, Storm Trooper, Dark Sythe, the big green alien thing. Mafia would be Luke Skywalker, Princess Lea, the guy who owns the ship, Yoda. The write-ups would be different. Instead of, "the mafia is one-by-one killing all the good guys", it would be, "the good guys have made a rebellion and are one-by-one killing the bad-guys" the bad guys would have to stop the good guys. It would be a different perspective.

Post by Erniewan on Jul 18, 2007 17:51:55 GMT -6
Yeah, that's basically what I meant. But common was talking about twists like good and bad mixed together so that you can never tell by someone's role which side they are on.

I like the idea of villain's mafia. I don't understand it but it sounds fun. Also, the night has ended about 9 hours ago, you do know that, right.

Post by Erniewan on Jul 18, 2007 18:00:11 GMT -6
Nah, it's p.m. not a.m. I'll put it up when I get back, don't worry.

Yah, I just noticed that. I was wondering doesn't any one think it's weird how long this is taking? Silly me.

Erniewan, don't forget to post my Wheel of Time game as one of the 5 games that will be hosted here please.

oooh. The Villain mafia sounds interesting

Post by Erniewan on Jul 18, 2007 21:21:58 GMT -6
yeah, I'm liking the idea more and more. I'm gonna start planning it, hopefully I will start it in about a month.

If you do the villains mafia will there still be a theme. Everything is funner when the characters have names.
|
|
|
Post by Erniewan on Jul 19, 2007 18:07:40 GMT -6
Oh yes, still has a theme and names. Only thing is, name claiming doesn't help much, only role claiming. Of course it may still give away power roles, but what side they are on will still be a mystery because everyone will be bad.

Post by Erniewan on Jul 20, 2007 18:01:57 GMT -6
So I'm seriously considering doing this Villain Mafia game, it sounds fun. I've been thinking about it at work and coming up with names. I'll probably wait a week before starting sign-ups though, so I can work out everything, so don't forget to come back!

How about a Stargate Mafia game? Anyone interested?
