Well this board is deader than last night's lynch.

 

What happened?

 

I'd have thought with the Traitors TV show that people would want to see how they'd do at the game.

 

Cos Traitors (and maybe Among us) is basically Mafia

 

Also it was a great way to get to know people and hang out.

 

Do we not remember this?

 

 

Or even the glory of this? 

 

But maybe this is the real reason ...

I could run a basic 'learn how to play'  if anyone wants to try.

 

And of course any not so new players who'd like to help get new players into the game.

 

How many would we need? 7 ish

 

It's sad that that might be too high a number.

 

Let me reach out

 

@Turin Turambar @HeavyHalfMoonBlade @Andy MacLeod

@Donchadh

@Millon

@Gudrean @Cairos @LilyElizabeth @Cross @ThorkinBarrimore @Leala @Wayward_fool

 

*pokes about to find people she knows who are active

 

And off course anyone else ... and those annonymous Watchers of the Boards too.

I have no idea what Mafia is, but I am down to try. 

Same!

Hey Heavy!

Hey Andy

 

Yeah it's a fun game and I will be running the Drama Free version

 

So they'll be a number of people playing

 Some will be Town. Some will be Mafia. Mafia know who is on their team. Town will not know who is on their team.

 

The Town initially outnumber the Mafia. During the Day Phase you all talk. Try to see if you can get any tells from people or suspicions.

 

At the end of each Day phase, everyone votes on who they think is a member of the Mafia team. You need a Majority to lynch someone.

 

They die.

 

Then it goes into the Night phase. During the night the Mafia team can choose to kill someone. They do this via a team PM to the mod.

 

Sometimes there are special Town characters, who can take actions at night. One of these would be the Cop. They can ask the mod, via PM, if a certain player is Mafia. They will get an answer. 

 

Then it's back to Day phase and all the living people get totalk some more and question blah blah blah

 

And at the end of Day 2 there's another Lynch Vote.

 

Of course people can vote at any point during the day, or they can not vote. If ever a Majority is reached the Lynch happens and Day ends.

 

Town win if they Lynch all the Mafia

Mafia win if they are equal in number to the remaining Town, so can't be voted off.

Basically Turin loves this game so I thought I'd try and get one going.

 

Oh, and when you play you have to remember that the game forces people to lie, so they can win.

 

There should be no personal attacks, but there will be things like, ah ha! But you said this the other day and now you are saying this so that means you are Mafia!

 

And some old school players will say Scum instead of Mafia. It's not name calling, it's just another term for the Mafia team.

I’m down to play lol. It’s been ages though! 

First fact of mafia. I'm never mafia

 

Second fact of mafia.  If I'm not killed on Night 1, I'm probably mafia.

 

Third fact of mafia. I have no idea what I'm doing.

 

At least one of these is false.  

 

VOTE DICETOSSER for old times sake.

Yay @ Turin and @Cairos

 

Thats 4 now.

 

  Ages for me now. Gone of the days of the super mega 24 player multi role games.

 

Let's all learn how to play again tomorrow, with a nice friendly Basic game.

 

I'll think up a scenario 

 

But look what I found. Remember @Tiinker asking why we had a baguette emoji.

So I've started an official sign up Thread here :

 

 

I'll just convert it to the Game Thread when we've got enough bodies ... erm I mean players.

Edited March 1Mar 1 by Millon

I definitely need this @Ithillian Turambar Sedai...because, I really have no idea what I'm doing!??  

 

And I'm definitely Townie Mafia, err, Townie?

Ooh, how do we do the strike through now? It used to be a button. It isn't there on mobile anymore. 

How did he do the cross out?

On a computer, it is the 4th button from the left (where Bold is the 1st button), when you write a message!

Oh. Reason #48642 to get a computer.

I'm gonna take that as a sign up

 

We can all learn and remember together

I think @Millon said he knew someone who wanted to play.

 

This is the perfect set of people to learn the game. All nice and friendly. You could almost imagine that no one will die at all.

On your phone, flip it sideways so the keyboard hides everything and the strikethrough button magically appears, and other things like font size. Who ever designed the mobile version decided people that use their phones landscape deserved more options. 

Awesome!!! Thanks HEAVY

 

now I ca. Say things when not saying things.😃

Omg. That's so dumb!

 

But awesome that you figured it out and must be a secret landscape user @HeavyHalfMoonBlade

Lol, not quite but I used to use a nifty 8" Windows tablet as an electronic notepad (it had a digitizer) and Windows kind of intelligently switches from Desktop to Mobile depending on the screen orientation. 

 

So turning things over when they are being frustrating is second nature to me, lol. 

We have got 10 players now. There will be our 3 new players

 

@Andy MacLeod @HeavyHalfMoonBlade and @Donchadh

 

And some players who are already active on DM

 

@Turin Turambar @Millon @Cairos @Gudrean

 

And some friends from the past, who we are very happy to see again

 

@Sooh @dicetosser1 @Zander?

 

It's a really good mix of good people.

 

Just waiting to get through lunch and I'll get this show on the road.

 

In the main game, please don't post once I put up the Thread Locked message 🙂

 

See you all there soon!

 

 

So this game is underway. I think people are enjoying it.

 

So, if anyone is up for it, I can run another game afterwards based on Among Us. I found a nice simple basic open set up on mafiascum that fits nicely with the way Among Us is played.
