Can I please play Minesweeper mafia now????

Skenvoy · Post Post #3301 (ISO) » Wed Nov 09, 2011 2:45 pm

I was actually thinking over it yesterday (I'm totally stealing Zoraster's idea), but I'd probably start it off with a minesweeper board - each player knows where they are on the board (each player is a bomb, you see), and there are also normal bombs that aren't players. Nobody can be voted for until you find them on the board (when a bomb is flagged with correct reasoning, the mod will post a) if it's a player and b) if so, which player it is), and once that's happened, they're open to voting. Each player can click on the board as many times as they want (maybe, might have to put a limit), but the catch is that if they click on a bomb, their place on the board is revealed, and they can be voted for. Once someone's place on the board is revealed, they can no longer click on the board. Once all players have been revealed, it turns into a normal game of mafia.

The thing is, I think mafia might be more reluctant to click on the board, as they're more fearful of votes. Anyone would be able to vote, but only for players who've been revealed. I don't know, I think it would be interesting.

Honestly? All that would happen is that everyone would just click on the board as fast as possible, then play regular mafia. There's no town motivation to do otherwise.

I like zoraster's original idea better.

I would REALLY be interested in playing this.

I did it with only 10-12 players.

Anyone interested in helping me devise my split-game mafia? Please PM me if you are interested!

I'd totally be up for a game like this.

Minecraft Mafia, anyone?

Humans as the mafia, and mobs as the town. Perhaps one of the neutral mobs as a third party. And a Creeper as a suicide bomber. The humans would probably have certain tools, blocks, or weapons for powers (a sword for a strongman, for example). Of course, some of the mob powers will be a little odd (since pretty much all of them kill in minecraft).

Thoughts?

I like the sound of that... Perhaps their role could have something to do with their type? (Skeleton or Zombie = Rolecop or something?)

izakthegoomba · Post Post #3312 (ISO) » Sat Nov 26, 2011 6:21 am

Why would either of those be a rolecop? Skeleton will probably be a unique role.

The Acting Method · Post Post #3313 (ISO) » Sat Nov 26, 2011 7:26 am

First role that came to mind, I could do a wiki search for a better role... Skeleton Janitor maybe? obscures the role by removing all traces of identity? or would that be more of a framer?

So I was wondering, would anyone be interested in a Rage Comic UPick? It would be a mini-theme. You would basically get a role based off of a rage face. Has this been done/Anyone interested?

Guy_Named_Riggs · Post Post #3315 (ISO) » Sat Mar 10, 2012 4:41 pm

That sounds interesting
I would play

Moneybags · Post Post #3316 (ISO) » Sat Mar 10, 2012 4:44 pm

Actually ignore my last post. I've just had the idea of Time Travelers Mafia. It would be a mini theme with very interesting mechanics involving Time Travel.
Is this totally insane?

I think it's been done before, once or twice?

Gah D: Do you think you could find the games? Maybe they weren't as awesome as mine will be

Uhh. I'll 99% surely forget, and I can't do it now... I'll try to remember.

Thanks for those. I hadn't thought they both might be from '02 and '05.
The one from '05 is the most similar to what I had in mind. And also how come they both only lasted about 10-12 pages? Anyways I'm thinking I'll run it only better

That's pretty much the answer.

Here's another game.

Gah D: Alright.
I have another idea though. What about an Alternate Reality mafia? If you've seen the NBC show Awake, it would work a little like that.

You would have D1 and everyone has their roles, lynch someone. Then there's N1, night actions taken
But instead of D2, there's another D1 in which everyone is given a different role that can tie into/help their role in the other Days.
So basicly if your a mafia rolecop in reality 1, and a vig in reality 2, you could decide who you want your vig kill to be based on your results as the RC.
There would be two winners, one for each reality.

I just thought of this so there would be much ironing out. Has

this

been done before?
