mini 620 - pxm - GAME OVER

[hasdgfas]

By the way, I honestly think that was the worst played game of mafia I've ever been in. I'm not sure anyone, myself included, played well.

Also, ZZ, if you're going to mod a speed game, please try to have more frequent votecounts. Day 1 was all right, but day 2 you didn't have any VCs in the middle of the day at all. In addition, the 100 post maximum is, IMO, a terrible rule, because it stifles discussion.

Sorry if this seems like sore loserness, because I honestly don't care that we lost. I just thought the game wasn't played well.

I wouldn't say it's the worst game I've ever played, but I had no idea what was going on - maybe it's because I'm not as much a part of the MS community as others are? But the names included with our roles, and the overall storyline, made no sense whatsoever to me. Was there some significance to the names being tied in to village or scum, or was it random? And I still don't understand the pirate part of it at all.

Yea, that's right. A Pirate. From Texas.

The game had an interesting premise, but I think the rules made it too easily breakable for town. I think completely random-lynching with only posting once every 3 days would have basically guaranteed scum would never have made majority.

I liked how the hydras worked out, though it's a little bit frustrating to see two members have opposing opinions.


I don't think the 100 post maximum was an issue what-so-ever, basically just in place to prevent scum from spamming out kills. The issue was the 250posts for a scum-kill - not posting frequently was an incredibly strong strategy

EBWOP:
This game wins the record for most text in a game concentrated into the fewest pages

This too. I think zz underestimated the ability of players to write a large amount in only a few pages. How many pages is 250 posts anyways? 10?

[Max]

10 pages precisely

The role flavor, as it always will be in an xyzzy-modded game, had nothing to do with the game itself.

Coincedentally, the pirate came from a game that was run several years ago, that was Texas-themed. The pirate was a one-shot vig in that game. Since that role largely broke the "assume that anything that makes sense for the theme is true" (along with, in large part, Space Monkeys), I decided to include it.

I was extremely surprised that StrangerCoug didn't use up his posts - if he'd gone over his limit, the scum would essentially get a free townie lynch, and the scum would've been much closer to a kill.

Maybe someday people will learn that my flavor has no impact on the game >: /

The inactivity kills were lame, and the set up basically made this 10/2 nightless.

[maxwellhouse]

i thought it was really fun =x.

the only thing i would have to agree on is the 72 hours without posting. maybe be a little more lenient of it?

anyway, sorry i didn't contribute much, if anything xD. but MS mafia sure is a lot more intense than anything else. but i thought it was fun =)

[dahill1]

i thought you played well maxwell
you made some newb mistakes at first, but you definitely were contributing towards the end

[Muerrto]

Bah I'm the one who called out and stayed on Stranger day 2 lol Give props where they due JDodge.

Grats to the town.

Interesting set up but quite nearly impossible for the mafia to win. Maybe 9:3?

I played Day 1 and I think part of Day 2 thinking I was town and didn't realize I was scum until Green Cow PM'd me. I tried to be very conservative with my posts since it would be obvious that I was scum if I did, but apparently that didn't work.

We didn't even get a chance to kill anybody

...Wait a minute—I've got an idea!

*shoots xyzzy*

[Trojan Horse]

You mean when I fingered you as scum, you actually thought you were on the town's side?

Grr... and here I was thinking my scumdar had actually worked for once. Apparently not.

[StrangerCoug]

Apparently, Trojan Horse.

[Lawrencelot]

Lol, fun game. It was indeed a quickie, as I expected when I signed up, but it started too late to end before I´d go V/LA. The hydra thing was interesting, but I actually I didn´t like all the posting rules, I played to see if I would like it. Still didn´t read the part after Stranger´s lynch though...
