I have a question, and please excuse my ignorance, but do you guys ever run warring factions games?

Define "warring factions". (The answers probably, tried it and it failled awfully.)

I mean instead of town vs. scum

it's more group vs. group vs. group vs. group "the enemy of my enemy is my friend"--win conditions usually involve taking down one group in stead of becoming the majority. It allows for more than one group to win and there are a lot of PR roles distributed. I mean I've played on other sites and I love it(when it's done correctly), in fact I am working on a game right now which is why I ask...

That idea is more an informed minority vs an informed minority vs another informed minority, and it really pulls some of the dynamics out of mafia. It's more of a mish-mash game. The closest you'll ever get to "warring factions" is a multiball setup or a setup with a scum team + 3rd party.

Actually, after checking the wiki that "multiball" sounds more like what I am working on. Still a town majority, but different scum parties. Where are the multibal games played? Is that MishMash also?

Well I am working on a Charmed themed game...I guess when I finally finish a few games, and start getting my modding requirements done then I'll have the game reviewed to see where it fits best. Would anyone even play a Charmed themed game?lol
