How about an Insane Asylum game?

How about an Insane Asylum game?

been done twice, both were cool games imo (modded one and participated in the other), will join third!

I'm planning on the Inmates being mafia/3p and the Town being the staff. The game will go as long as I can get someone to balance it. Some people who know what their doing said my game is out of their experience level to balance. Power madness, swingy, dirty mess.

[LicketyQuickety]

count me as a pre-in then! XD

It's going to be quite a while before my game even shows up in the Queue, just fyi. I have to play some other games on this site to get a feel for the meta, I have to mod a few games to get an understanding of how that works and then I can start thinking about running my baby.

[LicketyQuickety]

(why am i doing this i shouldnt even be online)

I think you should reconsider having the inmates being mafia. Historically, it was the staff of insane asylums that were the monsters, not the mentally-ill (and sometimes perfectly sane, at least when first admitted) patients. Horrible conditions, brutality, cruelty, etc. etc. It was a hellhole to be in because of the staff. Of course, that'd be difficult to do flavour-wise, I guess.

The other problem I have with it is it kind of demonizes mentally-ill people, which is NO GOOD. *Sonic thumbs down*

The idea is that the Inmates are the ones who are "in the know" so to speak. I don't have a problem with it and I've been diagnosed with somethings myself.

[LicketyQuickety]

I'm diagnosed with something that occurs in <1% of the population. Its not bipolar and its not schizophrenia.

[LicketyQuickety]

Ooh a guessing game.

Uhh.. I guess?

I have an intro thread, I'll take guesses there.

[LicketyQuickety]

When Vi says something, you listen.

[LicketyQuickety]

11:2 is pretty standard; 10:3 can be done but you probably need ass-tons of town powers

I'll be honest, I don't quite understand what Vi is saying. Are they saying 11 Town 2 Mafia with some PR's? But I don't understand how many on each side.

[LicketyQuickety]

Normal games are easy though.
Go 11-2 with any of the following combinations of roles on Town's side:
*Cop
*Roleblocker+Tracker
*Masonsx2+Role Cop (actually, go 10-3 for this one)
*Friendly Neighborx2+Vanilla Cop
Steal a ruleset from someone who sounds erudite, lift Role PMs from the wiki or the same person you stole the ruleset from, and smile for the reviewers.

I think I understand, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Vi in this case is saying 11/10 player game with 2/3 PR for town???

[LicketyQuickety]

voice of reason?

What do you mean?

[LicketyQuickety]

I also want to run a Parasyte Mafia game, based on the anime/manga of the same name. Maybe later rather than sooner, but I wonder if anyone would be interested in that flavor at all?

OK that gave me an idea.

I claiming Resident Evil if it has not been done yet.

[LicketyQuickety]

Has 'The Adams Family' been done?

[LicketyQuickety]

I'll be doing a Nirvana themed game at some point where the members of the band are Mafia and the fans are Town. I might have a special role for Anna Nichole as well.

[LicketyQuickety]

I'm toying with this idea:

YOU mafia!

A game where the role is based off of the player!

Requirements:
cannot be an alt/hydra
Must be a member for at least 15 months

I design flavour and abilities based on your exploits as a scummer!

I would so want into this game if I'd been here long enough.

[LicketyQuickety]

What do people think of Mafia + Russian Roulette?

Sure. Go pick a setup like that from some of the current setups in the Open Game Discussion thread.

[LicketyQuickety]

Would anyone be interested in a Mastodon (the band) themed game? What thinking scum would be the band members and Town would be characters from their albums.

[LicketyQuickety]

Has anyone done an anonymous all-hydra game yet? I did one on MU and it was really fun. I think I'd like to try modding one here. Players could either PM to request being partnering, or partners could be assigned. So we'd have 26 people signing up for 13 hydras. It would be a 10/3 game with scum daytalk and no PRs.

Amen.

[LicketyQuickety]

That would not work
Hydra slips will happen

But they shouldn't

[LicketyQuickety]

I'm stating the truth

How do you know its the truth if it hasn't happened yet?

[LicketyQuickety]

Not for a theme but...

Would people be interested in playing a game where you can give and take away abilities from players for things regarding voting?

Bump.

Obviously this means we (Maker and I) are going to have come up with some creative roles that are new. I think it's going to be a good game, but I just would like to know there is some interest for this sort of game.

[LicketyQuickety]

I like this avatar much better Elbirn. Does more to capture your personality.

[LicketyQuickety]

I'm thinking about running a game based on the James Bond novel "Casino Royale". If that turns out to be fun, I have some ideas for continuing the series of games.

Any interest?

I might even be interested in Co-Moding it with you. Don't know if you are open to that, but I appreciate the theme given I have made "spy themed" games in the past. My games were flavorless, but still had a theme revolving around the manipulation of information.

[LicketyQuickety]

Just asking here...

Nearly Mountainous, but with a twist.

I kinda want to streamline the idea I had for a previous game I made.

15 player game.
3 Scum.
12 Town.

Day Phase and Night Phase, with a twist mechanic.

During Day Phase each players pick a player to Lim and what room they want to be in at Night. There are 3 rooms (nothing special about the rooms, just where people go at Night).
Rooms have a Private PT that is reset each Night. No In-Thread communication during Night.
During Night Phase Mafia kills one person from a room. There are some qualifications to this.
If any Mafia member is in a room with only Scum or Scum outnumber Town in that room, then they can choose to kill whoever they want.
If the rooms are all equal between Town and Scum then Scum can kill whoever they want.
Otherwise, Scum has to kill Town in the room with the least amount of Town in that room if there is a Scum member in that room.

Win Cons:
Town: Eliminate all Mafia.
Mafia: Reach Paraty with Town OR get everyone to be in the same room at Night.

Wondering if someone can tell me if this is just ridiculously Scum sided or not.

[LicketyQuickety]

That feels like a potential open setup, might wanna make a thread for it

Thanks. Did so here: https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=88403
