hyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyype.

 

[Ullion]

why do i deal with you people

Was it not just a few days ago when you were going on about how you just love everyone here so much? :3

 

[Etherion]

Hey guys, so I think I found an alternative to my Skype problem, but it's not as effecient :) Thanks for the concern Kiyo.

So, after the events of AitP, I was intriged by the idea of mafia variants. So I decided to make my own! :D I dont know if someone else has already made it but its based on a board game called "Stratego"

and here it is:

Spoiler:

Stratego based Mafia

Players needed: 20-30+
gMs: 2

at the start of the game, the players will be divided into 2; they will be given their role PMs and will be introduced the 10x7 grid (along with thier NA will be their position on that grid) the players will play as the pieces in the board game.

aside from the pieces' special powers, they must PM me thier movement in the said grid. Some pieces cant move at all in the start. Once the two pieces from the opposing teams hit or collide with each other, they will attack and the piece with the lower power value will die.

Role Pieces:

Flag - once you die, the whole team will lose. PV is 0.
Dragon - PV is 10
Mage - 9
Knight - 8
Beast Rider - 7
Sorceress - 6
Lava Beast / Yeti- 5
Elf - 4
Smith - 3
Wolf - 2
Slayer - 1, the only piece that could kill the dragon

That said, there technically are two openings for the bigger games, since we currently have three big games going: GAU, GoT, and MC. But are either Death Note orCode Geass ready....

5 large games... Errrrrrr...

Code Geass needs a little more time I'm afraid. I was under the impression that with three large games currently ongoing, that perhaps there would be a delay for the next games, until one of these ends? I mean, these three are all large games, and adding a fourth would be either underwhelming for the fourth, or would overwhelm the players in it. And I really don't want CG mafia starting unless there is room for another very big, very wild game.

A note to all, the roles you know and love in mafia will be GONE for CG mafia, and replaced by twisted, new versions designed to play on the mind and make you think about everything, every detail. To that end, I need more time to perfect the fluency of the roles and such. But get ready for a new experience in the mafia world.

^ Maybe the lists could just be shuffled around slightly so you don't have to worry about GMing two at a time. Will give you time to sort out CG as well.

Since GAU was the GT event it probably wasn't thought about how it would affect the queue. It's probably fair to assume that nobody should be GMing two at the same time. I can see this problem maybe resurfacing soon with Naku.

 

[Salzorrah]

This is why I pushed back Fangirl since Supps S3 hasn't ended yet that time. We were under the impression that the game can finish with 3 games in between it... Haha so wrong XD

 

[gimmepie]

That brief mention of a board game-based mafia just gave me the best idea; Clue/Cluedo mafia.

 

[Nakuzami]

Nope

I didn't read it fully, but I saw Stratego sooooo

Go for it

And Clue has been mentioned so many times lol

 

[Who's Kiyo?]

Literally the first mafia idea I posted on this tread.

I'm just wondering how we could incoporate weapons and such.​

Let's look into it when we're done with the Blog-Off xD

 

[dad]

the title makes me feel bad haha
i remember someone suggested kingdom hearts mafia a while ago and mentioned merging it with disney villains... i know squat about kingdom hearts so whoever wanted to make that, go for it.

I completely agree. I thought the idea of a limit of 2 was being tossed around a while ago, and with GAU coming in from the GT I can see 3 being acceptable (tbh though when discussion really picks up in GoT and GAU, it's kind of annoying to have 2-5 pages to read through in each thread. Personally I'm not sure if I want to join multiple games in the future...).

I know others have been apart of 3 games at once, but that shouldn't be a common thing, and it's gonna push people away from games they wanted to join. If Death Note were to start today, I wouldn't sign up for it because of GoT and GAU, even though I enjoyed DN. I know that having a 2-3 game limit will slow the queue down, but it will also keep people from getting burned out. It's either you get burned out and will only join every other game that starts (and have to decide between 2 games that you wanted to join) or we take longer to get through the queue but everyone can join all the games they are interested in.

 

[Mana1]

If we're sticking with just three we need to remedy the queue to make it so more people have a chance to GM ><.

Maybe we should start a rolling start - like the next mafia can start when the previous one reaches day 4/5.



Tbh just tell me to start mine and I will <_< I've even written my PMs out already.

 

[Bidoof FTW]

I don't know I'm feeling pretty okay with the 3 big games, maybe I was born with it.
maybe it's maybelline

Whatever helps my game start as quickly as possible is okay with me :)

Pretty sure I suggested this too when TU hadn't long been opened. That way those knocked out early can come into a new game, and not have to wait 3 months ages for Gunner the game to finish.

And @Bard, that idea is also very good. How about both, UG mods???

 

[gimmepie]

I have to admit I really like Bard's idea. I think that would be a great way to keep activity more constant around here whilst moving us through the list faster and it will be good for people who lose themselves in bigger games too.

 

[JaDe.X105]

With Bard's idea, would we need to have 2 queues then? Or kinda like how Gio just started AitP, little games can pop up whenever?

 

[Ullion]

Bard's idea would encourage more people to try hosting smaller mafia games instead of trying for 30+ constantly. :)

 

[Nakuzami]

I'm still not for the cap in general

if people join to many games and can't keep up, it's their own fault.

I'm not as interested in smaller/faster games, and I don't think I'd plan to host any.

 

[Ullion]

It's always a possibility (I know we discussed this both on skype and on here recently) to have multiple queues to represent the different types/sizes of mafia games. I think this is something we should heavily consider. :')
