Mainly I want it like a Large Fire and Ice where the NKs on each other turn into Cop guilties. Instead of 12:2:2, try 15:3:3.

That's pretty much it. I'd like to keep it at 21 while having it balanced and not boring. Multiple, randomized Neighborhoods and Scum teams with Daytalk, too. I created a game like this with 16 players offsite, and that game has been epic with over 4,000 posts, and a combined 2,000+ posts in Neighborhood QT discussion, strategy, and interest.


I totally want into this game when you make it. The offsite one is a blast.

Absolutely.

Two problems, though. The Open Queue takes around two years for a game to enter Signups


wtf man, is this place ran by the government? :lol:

Yeah but burnouts can be good when the area is overgrown with vegetation.

Bazinga!

Idk about phpbb, but on Xenforo & IP.Board sites, I would prefer multi-user PM's over a third-party thread.

Keeping everything on-site is easier to track, especially with notifications to alert you of new content.

How doable is this idea...?

Colosseum Mafia...

All players are given a 1-shot modified gladiator that turns the loser into a tree stump.

Lynches must be gladiated (votes outside of gladiation do not count). Nightless, scum has day chat.

Also i don't think turning the mafia sided people into tree stumps is ever all that fun (their job basically becomes to derail everything)
Thanks!

So, alternative theory...

All players are (non-xshot) gladiators except one townie that is the governor.

And yes, turning the scum into stumps along with town is what would give it the Colosseum atmosphere. Savage and chaotic.

Gladiators need a crowd, after all.

Perhaps a post restriction of 1-line per post, and 3 posts per (r/l) day? That way they could goad or coach, but not flood the game.
