Announcing... "Just Play The Hits" Mafia!
A 15 person uPick game under the Geriatric Ruleset!
In this game, you will submit to me a mainstream pop artist from the last 20 years with at least one Top 10 hit!
In response, every player in the game will get a role back with 3 one-shot abilities derived from that artist's hits.
Aside from the one shot abilities, every player will be otherwise a vanilla version of their role.
Once those 3 shots are used, you're out of shots!
Players will only flip as their role name and alignment. Shots will not be revealed upon death.
Pre-ins are full! PM me if you want to know when the game goes into signups.

tbf "lynch all lurkers" was meta on MS for a long time (a long time ago) to fix this exact problemIn post 482, Mathdino wrote:I mean is the solution to just policy lynch all lurkers? That doesn't seem much better

I think the amount of lurkiness in Micro 768 was more because:
- the mod was not enforcing prods
- there was one slot that was constantly not posting for days at a time, and that slot was not being replaced
one of the last scum was a slot that was way past replacement and the mod didnt replace him until LYLOgreen shirt thursdays- xRECKONERx

issue is that lurking as scum is absolutely playing to your winconIn post 496, Kublai Khan wrote:
Well, the overall problem is that pushing for policy lynches is viewed as a scummy move. Policy lynches tend to always be on town because mafia know who is who and can push policy lynches to achieve their win condition without raising suspicion.In post 493, Lycanfire wrote:if you did that, more policies would go through. nobody is going to policy lynch for one game. it's only beneficial if it's a recurring theme, which it isn't.
To fix this there needs to be an out of game punishment. If someone is town and they prod-dodge and lurk all game then they should be considered to be "not playing towards their win condition" and get some sort of meta punishment if it's continuous.green shirt thursdays- xRECKONERx

why are you here?In post 571, Mulch wrote:
Do you realize the irony of thisIn post 568, xRECKONERx wrote:the issue seems to be people signing up for geriatric games who have no intention of staying active
The very POINT of this is to create a haven for people that aren't active and can now lurk without consequences or repercussions.
(right)
If it's not, if you look at it pragmatically that's gonna be the result
Unless you have the PERFECT playerlist of people that don't post a lot, but are extremely active
I would say the problem of lurking is exacerbated by the ruleset.
there's a middle ground between "lurk all the time" and "spam post 900 pages"

I opened the discussion in an OPEN DISCUSSION FORUM in 554 to revive the topic of "is geriatric townsided or scumsided, and why?" I opened that, knowing that Mulch might have input, and he provided input. This was what I wanted.
Quote the posts since I revived this discussion where you think Mulch turned it into a fight, treated others with disrespect, harassed anyone, or "shitting on" the thread.
for my take

dino i like youIn post 605, Mathdino wrote:I HAVE told Mulch to fuck off before. This was never a question of his character, or of my opinion of him. You brought that question back into the thread.
You pulled quotes from months ago instead of answering my question. There wasn't a single post he made after I opened the thread again for discussion, that was trolling, harassing, disrespectful, or otherwise toxic.
I asked for discussion. Mulch provided a reasonable viewpoint. You, among others, shot back with personal attacks that derailed it again, rather than even addressing the discussion. That is what turned this into a fight.
And if you're upset about this being turned into a debate, again, you should be mad at me, because I've been discussing the townsided/scumsided debate for the past few pages now. The ruleset is vulnerable to inactive mods and inactive players, and appears to be MORE vulnerable than average games on MS. That was the topic.
That quote happens to accidentally include Ari's 354 which, incidentally, I agree with. I don't have a personal problem with you, but you guys are absolutely being the aggressors in this situation.
but im getting to understand why others dont
