I think everyone is getting all bent out of shape for nothing.

 

Nolder if the action or inaction of players and mods bother you and it causes you not to have a good time then why do you play?

 

You're saying if people don't like the things you say or don't want to be active in a game then they shouldn't play, the same could be said for you. It's a little hypocritical.

 

On a side note, this was a REALLY great game and it was my pleasure to be involved. It was hard keeping up with everything for the first 100 pages but that just shows its epicness <---- not a real word.

 

So once again DPR, thanks for the epicness that is you ;)

 

Someone poke me when the scooby doo game is ready.

How could they have controlled the game? The maffia just stays active and sends in the kills/recruits after every lynch. Obviously that means the one sending it has to be hyperactive.

 

It's based on the mechanic of the first Fast-Mafia Vampire Hunter game. Were the town to get together and put a suspect list up while organizinf FLIR views and Vig kills, the mafia would have had to be very active and very clever to pull through.

 

In each PM I told the FLIR viewer and the Vig Killer that they could not discuss the options before they were used. But they were free to discuss them after, so the first viewer and killer could have copped to the action and suggested that the town plan who to view/kill each phase, even though they wouldn't know who did it. 

 

By controlling the timing and the view/kills, the town could have kept the mafia very busy and that would have led to mistakes made by the mafia, making them easily visible.

 

But, paranoia won out and despite several people asking if they could talk about the views/kills after they performed them, no one ever did.

 

It's fascinating to see how people handle things. 

 

I could have sworn I told town multiple times to vote for who the vig kill should be and so on, and italicized votes but no one listened to me.

 

 

Here are a few thoughts regarding current discussions:

 

To me, lurking is a playstyle. Period. Doesn't mean it's good or bad, it just is. If you don't like people that do it, lynch them.

 

There are no right and wrong ways to play. The mod sets the guidelines. People will innovate. It's how the game evolves.

 

Inactivity is so often blamed on the players - blame it on the mods instead. If the game is interesting and it flows, people will play it. if it is encumbered by too many rules and is made too difficult to understand, they won't. If it is not handled well by the mod, they won't. If it degenerates into spats between players about play styles and how everyone should be doing things, people will leave. Mafia is like sex: keep it spontaneous and inventive, don't confuse the people you are playing with and it is usually best enjoyed after cocktails.

 

If you have a complaint about DM mafia, put the time in to create a great game. Problem solved.

 

I was very happy with the amount of activity in this game - I was also very happy with the number of people who really brought their A games. This was a blast to mod and I hope as much of a blast to play.

 

So cut each other some slack, dust yourselves off and get ready for the next game. That's why we're here. 

That was... an amazing post.

 

Same. I'm attempting try new and exciting things and then all of a sudden it's all police and restraining orders..

Hahahahahahaha, oh my god I cracked up when I saw this.

Rand is only buddying up to Wombat because he thinks he is going to Lynch me, but it is not me :P

 

I will just mis spell everything and Fake Claim Dap.

 

Of course that will probably also get me Lynched.

I'm just going to say I'm mafia and claim Rand

 

Lol the only way people will know an alt is really me if I actually post without the alt

An alt game is basically where everyone is given a temporary account for mafia use alone, where they are only allowed to post in the game in the alt account, and are not allowed to post anywhere else with the alt account.  Sometimes you can post in the signup thread using both.

 

Its basically done to prevent the use of meta so people don't prejudge and hunt by gameplay alone.  It sucks for some people, like me because I have a generally scummy playstyle, so I'll probably get lynched right off the bat.  Hopefully not, but probably. :P

Nolder I've said it before; you're not the ultimate authority on mafia; you have your opinions and that's fine, but not everyone agrees with you. I've always thought Tress is a very good player; she's not one of those who spams most, but when she do posts I pay attention to it, because I know that then she really has something to say, and she doesn't post just to up her postcount. I'm not ususally amongst the top posters either; but it varies from game to game for me. But you're overly harsh and bordering on rude if you ask me, this is just a game, that's also done now. We all love mafia, and we all have our different views on how it should be played. Doesn't make one more right than the other. To say that Tress ruins games are way beyond what's acceptable in critzising others game, that's my personal opinion at least.

 

I agree with this post.
