A Musical Mafia! (Game over)

[Tammy]

Well this was a game I was in. Yay town!

i'm bummed I didn't get to be queen though

Thanks for running in Rob13, I had fun while it lasted.

Wow Plot - do you do those big tables and thread temperature things as town too or is it just something you do as scum?

you'll see when we hydra together . I do it as both, but i rely more on iso maps as town and more on tables as scum. i dont post the tables outside hydra pt as town (and as scum only in the scum pt); i keep the table in post 0 in the hydra pt along with the role pm. in a recent town game i did post some thread temperature things to help with consolidating during a deadling scramble (as part of strongarming a lynch onto scum) but usually I don't post those in thread either. as town i try to be aware of thread temperature to see if anyone's reads are matching it too closely.

i wanted to post the thread temperature thing because i'd done it in that micro as town but thread temperature kept showing how viable my buddyies' wagons were and i wanted that to be a secret

rob

you should run musical games by decade

[Dwlee99]

Oh, btw plotinus, I actually used iso maps in bacanno mafia (the one in my signature). I saw you do it here and figured I might as well try it and was able to see who two dead town were scum reading and who they town read (They both town read one town and both scumread onr scum) which helped me get more engaged, etc. etc. So yea thanks!

[Plotinus]

i'm glad it helped! it helps me to focus when i'm reading an iso.

Hi, sorry for the rep out, but i couldn't risk being away longer than i had been while i was sick. Would have wanted to play more with Nacho and Plot

[Plotinus]

<3 I'm glad you're feeling better now

Thread temp/situational awareness ftw. It's part of why I'm always so cocky about not getting mislynched, I tend to keep a fairly close eye on that sort of thing(just without actually writing it all down so it's imprecise).

Iso mapping yourself/teammates is super strong and something I hadn't considered. Very good tool for maintaining consistency and ensuring you're actually interacting with everyone enough that you're not making it easy to pick out your partners.

[Malakittens]

Sorry ;-;

Tammy ps there's been games I don't lurk in :p

[Rob14]

God no, I'm not doing musicals by decade games. I don't know enough about old musicals to manage that.

The most recent idea I've had is "Minor Annoyance Mafia" or possibly themed as "First World Problem Mafia". All roles involve minorly annoying aspects (usually annoying aspects that you can inflict on others, especially across factions).

Alternatively, I eventually want to do an Always Sunny in Philadelphia Mafia if someone hasn't done one recently.

I WAS GOING TO RUN THAT AS A LARGE THEME SOON!

But go for I'd rather play anyway!

rob i gotta say i think this game was actually really well balanced

Yah. I can't think of anything I hated about it or that seemed fundamentally broken. The number of protectives when 2/3 of them would never protect against my shot was a little weird, and I'm not sure how to actually evaluate the higher likelihood that the vig shots were successful.

Still, nothing jumps out, and that's a good thing.

[Rob14]

I'm currently designing (like right this second) an Always Sunny in Philadelphia Mafia game that is borderline not even mafia. Like it's mafia, but it's also basically an episode of Always Sunny. It's that ridiculous.

Accepting pre-ins, I guess, although this will probably be at least a month from now. Don't know whether it will be a micro/mini/large yet. Probably a mini.

[Cerberus v666]

Oh. Something I didn't address, at least not fully.

When I refused to claim vig on D5 in spite of a consensus that I should do so, it was because I had done the math, as it were, and come to the conclusion that it was optimal for me to shoot one more time. I had also noted that since I could only shoot every other night, the game would reach a state where shooting on N7 would have been really stupid...therefore, it was optimal to take my one shot on N5. And since I knew there was a roleblocker of some sort out there, it wasn't worth it to risk losing that shot.

In addition, I still maintain that the optimal time to claim for me would have been the day before LYLO. That is, at the same time when town would have defaulted to automatically lynching me out of SK fears. By doing so, I would maximize the number of chances scum had to shoot me rather than allowing them to ignore me and write me off as a guaranteed paranoia lynch in end game.

After reading through the Dead PT, i did not soft any sort of PR, nor was my intention anyway, your fault there beeboy for misintepreting the post.

[Plotinus]

I would like to appologise for my behaviour in this game; I'm sorry for ruining people's fun.

[hiplop]

plot you made this game incredibly fun for me.

it was like, a badass DeathNote esque detective epic.

[hiplop]

everything I like about mafia = this game

[True Ogre]

This is incredibly -not- what I would classify as -not fun-.

There have been a tonne of opinions on this particular aspect of mafia games historically. Those ranging from "you should never replace out unless critical life issues happen" to "you should replace out if you don't like the game, because you'll impact it".

I believe neither fits where I stand - which is, if I feel people may be being hurt in any way by me being in the game - I'll replace.

I'm not talking about being hurt by being lied to (which everyone should be jilted by, but which is part of the game), but rather if I have a sense that what I am saying is having a bad RL effect on another person.

That's not what I'm here for, either on this site or in life and it's a standard I won't shake being in a mafia game - play-acting as it is.

nonononono Plot you were great

[drmyshottyizsik]

plot really hurt me. Posted to much before I replaced in, my work truly suffered
