I started playing forum mafia around 2014, played and hosted a couple of games, but on a non-mafia site. Returned to playing only last year.

This is my fourth game. I played in Newbies 2090 and 2092, in which I was VT both times. I also have one ongoing that I legally cannot discuss.
I don't have any other experience.

I'll be honest. I'm probably not going to read your past games unless I really, really have to :lol: thank you for providing them though.

Mafia can be hard :( did you win as a wolf or town?

No worries on the mention. I've seen the rules posted about ongoing games. Second game here - so you've played elsewhere?

Cool. I started playing around that same time until probably ~2018ish and then stopped. Hosting games is fun too

Thank you all for answering. Like I mentioned, I played for a few years on my homesite very regularly but that was a while ago. The deadlines will be an adjustment for me since I've only ever played with shorter ones but maybe a slower pace game could be just what I need these days. Suppose we'll see :mrgreen:

Town, Newbie 2090. I think these games heavily depend on how many PR die early.

It's a bit more serious and formal over here, for the most part, but a little less stressful imo.

I don’t disagree but I would add vanilla games do exist so it’s not impossible for Town to win without PRs. Generally speaking how would you describe the play here on MS?

Mafia, stressful? Couldn’t be :giggle:

I think I’ve heard of that forum. My homesite is called DM but I’ve played on a few different boards over the years like 2+2, VS, and MU.

It's pretty interesting, sometimes it can get bogged down in overanalysis of jokes/nothing comments etc but mostly good fun.

Towards the end of introductions people usually make 'readslists' ranking people from town to scum.

It's not impossible, but mountainous games tend to be very scumsided. The theoretical town winrate for 10v2 is 33.2%. I don't know math but I'm pretty sure that number would drop to lottery odds in 7v2.
