Sméagol Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Well, it's mainly a big deal for those that survive a significant amount, if I died at least 3-4+ days(irl days) before a next mafia starts, then I feel that may well be enough respite, but iono.[..] I actually have an idea what to do about that, but I'm not going to say anything . Except for that I won't be doing it for now since I'm in 2 mafia games, with probably especially jayseven's requiring my full attention . I think I'll do my experiment after my own game, I'll take a break from the mafias for a bit. Smeagol; I really wanna try and give you some tips but a) I'm just starting mine now and I don't want to give anything away and b) Even though I think I've got the balancing right, I will only be able to tell afterwards.Say no more, I know exactly what you mean .It doesn't matter though, I've already decided what I'm going to do regarding that. If you come up with crazy abilities, well or even if you include a lot of normal ones, balancing will probably be impossible to get exact right. My feeling is that it doesn't matter, as long as people are having fun, and it's only apparent after the end of the game if the game was unbalanced or not, and not if that's already obvious during the game. I have a request; When sending in your night PMs it makes it easier for the GM if you put your target IN the subject line. Rooting through loads of PMs isn't that time-consuming for me, but it would save time and mean I'd have to make less notes. Something like; [Mafia game]: Night [x]: Target: ... with any necessary role-specific further details inside teh post. Good idea, I was already doing that except for the target. But I'll do that for the next PMs. I may even require it in my own game, if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayseven Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Coming up with a role that you're proud of... is always dangerous :P They'll either die the first night, or be inactive, or, what is worse, is that you shape your entire role-list around one potential playthrough. Aaaah I sooo want my mafia to be over so I can discuss it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rummy Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Yeah, I just wanted to say, even though I have absolutely no idea of what's really going on or who's who in the Colour mafia, I think it's fucking amazing. That is exactly the kind of chaos and formula breaking that I was hoping for right at the beginning of this thread. Chaos, pandemonium! Mafia's will stale out for me due to a lack of variation, but the Colours is fast paced and frankly, just a bit ridiculous! Hats off to you Danny.

Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Thanks! I'm very much looking forward to discussing it afterwards as I have A LOT of thoughts on my mind and things to say about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paj! Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 I want to run a DC Comics mafia, after Chairs/Jays/Dannys/whenever. I'd rather just run it when sign-ups are done/roles are done than wait till January or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chairdriver Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Can I just say that I think 48 hour day phases are too long? It feels things are stagnating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Can I just say that I think 48 hour day phases are too long? It feels things are stagnating. There are always different opinions on time limits. It really depends on the amount of discussion, I think. I was almost sad that the day had to end in the Colour Mafia since there was so much discussion going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rummy Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 One reason I liked Diageo's double-fold criteria, and kept suggesting it early on :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rummy Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Lol :P Only reason I wouldn't want it though, is I do kind of like a set time limit on all phases if they're not too long, moves the game along faster. The problem is, it depends on the game and the people at the time which I suddenly decide is more apt, guess it's just something you can never get 100% right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chairdriver Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Marvel mafia day phase has begun. It automerged itself, so didn't get bumped. -- Also need a replacement for an inactive. PM me if you want to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnas Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) EDIT: Wait, I posted in the wrong thread To stay on-topic... a night should have a set limit, and a day shouldn't end if a lynch is imminent. But that's just me, and each case is a case, etc. Edited October 3, 2010 by Jonnas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
