That game was actually done by kiwi eagle, who abandoned it and antihero, who if I recall correctly, was a player in said game, took over as mod to see the game run to completion. Kiwi eagle had no backup mod or Co mod, and had given no one any mod notes of any kind, and antihero basically had to wing it. I think we had to forward our role pm's to him and go from there. That almost didn't happen cuz a few players were so inactive that they almost didn't send their roles to him, and without a complete setup in front of him the game would have had to have been cancelled.

Even aside from kiwi abandoning the game, his design was lackluster and unbalanced, and I believe he screwed up action resolutions at least once before he peaced out.

The whole thing was a bloody fucking disaster and the worst game I've ever been in, and if should be swept under the rug and forgotten. In other words, as far as I'm concerned no one has ever done a rick and morty game and you and varsoon should totally get to work.

Tldr anti hero is actually a real-hero, always have a backup mod, you two co-mod this game to make up for the failures of the past

- I think I found a helper, thank you!


I would ignore all of my own threats of quitting mafia to play this, please accept my pre-pre-in. Also dibs on Japan. Or maybe Iroquois. Idk I'll get back to you.

Also also please utilize the world congress in some way, thanks.

The flavor would be character driven. Basically, it'd be a mash-up of some of the best characters ever conceived for musical theatre.

Yeah, I read up on the game and had been PMing Antihero, Elbirn. :giggle:
I heard about all the hardships and I agree the setup was less than stellar.

I'm helping Venmar design that since I did a Micro Civ V UPick awhile back. :wink:

Anybody else interested in helping on the balance end?
I'd really prefer somebody with Large Theme experience. Thanks!

My body needs it more than you could possibly imagine

How about a TF2 theme, guys? I mean, obv I need more experience first before I can mod, but I would really, REALLY love to make that a thing.

Would anyone be interested in a Gravity Falls Themed mafia game, in which the mod is Bill Cipher, always talking in caps and introducing new dastardly things?

This was the only correct answer.

As Varsoon commands it, it shall be done.

I am looking at running a Slender-man themed mafia game, probably a large theme game once I can. Need a bit of help deciding roles for characters since some would have...unique roles and mechanics. If anyone would mind helping me out with that, please PM me.

Have any games been done with a sanity mechanic? I'm toying around with something in my head, but not sure how well it would pan out.

Are you talking about something different from cop sanities?

I had an idea to do something a little different with them as well, but yes - I'm talking about more of a Cthulu game sanity mechanic. Something where your sanity level can change and different things can happen.

Sounds like an Eternal Darkness mafia. Sounds cool.

Would a Grand Idea Upick work? Ehh probably not. Better question; would people want to play it?

(I'm thinking you pick 2 roles: a mafia and a town role, I determine the alignment distribution, and your alignment determines your role)

I have my next games lined up though. So I'm not modding one right away.

Yes. There was a game where players lost sanity as a result of various actions, and each missing sanity point placed a restriction on that player. IIRC it was pretty well done. Unfortunately, it was a Large Theme from ages ago so I'm not sure if I could easily find it; I'll look for it but that doesn't necessarily mean I'll find it.

EDIT: Found it. As it's numbered 3, I assume it had a couple of prequels too.

Sounds like something I wanna read. Another game with a similar insanity mechanic would be interesting in that case!
