thinking of running a Waking Life mafia

also, looking for instances of overpowered andor fun role combinations/interactions to draw inspiration from since my knowledge is still limited at best ._.

Thinking of a running 3person LyLo tourney in the Micro queue if there is interest.

9 players. Probly round robin. Just a simple 1 scum vs. 2 town groups, short deadlines. One game at a time while those waiting for their game can discuss in a private qt. Player(s) with best record at the end win. Something like that.

I figured that's what he meant - like everybody would play with everybody else in at least one game such that there were enough miniLyLo's that there was actually a CHANCE that 1 (or maybe even 2) losses in the beginning was NOT an insta-lose

I'm guessing you'd be re-rolling between miniLyLo's, sounds like a cool idea btw

this. It would take four rounds for everyone to play each other.

I believe double and triple elimination would take a longer time to finish.

Round robin seems to be the fairest way to deal with the randomness of pairings.

plus even if you're down 2 games, I believe some people would enjoy trying to win with a better record than 0-4.

does 5 day deadlines sound good?

you could look at it like that
still informed minority vs. uninformed majority, just in the most basic of sense

I prefer to see it as "early game instincts" + "a bit of metagaming"

honestly I am a tad worried the games will be trivial and shallow due to how small they are; I'm hoping people take note of how others behaved in previous Lylos and adapt, which should add some depth.

but, y'know, we'll see how it turns out and if it deserves criticism than it does.
