Theme Test Market

Sounds good. I might play if you do it.

Just don't expect me to care about the flavor.

The idea of "evolving" roles sounds good, as a concept.

I'm not so sure about the tamagotchi theme.

So... a game without lynches? The town would need a factional kill...

izakthegoomba · Post Post #3280 (isolation #9) » Fri Nov 04, 2011 8:57 pm

It would have to be.

izakthegoomba · Sat Nov 05, 2011 11:03 am

Minesweeper Mafia would need LOADS of players.

izakthegoomba · Post Post #3299 (isolation #11) » Wed Nov 09, 2011 6:53 am

That would be a small game.

Minecraft Mafia, anyone?

Humans as the mafia, and mobs as the town. Perhaps one of the neutral mobs as a third party. And a Creeper as a suicide bomber. The humans would probably have certain tools, blocks, or weapons for powers (a sword for a strongman, for example). Of course, some of the mob powers will be a little odd (since pretty much all of them kill in minecraft).

Thoughts?

Why would either of those be a rolecop? Skeleton will probably be a unique role.

That'd make significant changes by itself. (I suggest that players only win overall if they win in both games, so that outing your scumbuddy in either game goes against your wincon.)

Then you have the awkward situation where both games are Scum wins, and nobody was scum in both. Game over, everyone loses.

Instant-Runoff Mafia, anyone?

izakthegoomba · Post Post #3374 (isolation #16) » Sun Apr 29, 2012 6:48 am

I just had an idea. A large theme game (>20 players, probably) made up of alignment-confirmed mason partners. An even number of scum, so they can claim masons. Some mason pairs would be vanilla apart from the talking, and others would have a factional-type power that could only be used while they were both alive.

Any interest?

izakthegoomba · Post Post #3379 (isolation #17) » Sun Apr 29, 2012 8:02 am

Yeah, I thought that might be the case. Making them lovers would obviously fix the confirming problem, but would do nothing about a D1 massclaim. Possibly it could be fixed by giving scum an X-shot Masons and Mafia-style power? If they can name a mason duo, they kill both of them, but if they get it wrong the mafioso using it dies.

izakthegoomba · Post Post #3381 (isolation #18) » Mon Apr 30, 2012 3:45 am

That could be an issue. I personally wouldn't try to break a game, because it does just that - breaks it, and makes it no fun for anyone involved. But I know other people

lack ethics

feel differently.

izakthegoomba · Post Post #3383 (isolation #19) » Mon Apr 30, 2012 4:37 am

Yeah, I'd enjoy breaking games in theory, but I wouldn't want a game I was playing in to get broken, whether it was in my favour or not.

izakthegoomba · Post Post #3385 (isolation #20) » Tue May 01, 2012 8:52 am

That would make for a crazy bastard game. But it would be somewhat diluted now you've outed your master plan.

izakthegoomba · Tue May 01, 2012 10:18 am

But it could have been even better if he hadn't told us the full story...

OR MAYBE HE HASN'T?

That's remarkably unenlightening, gorckat.

Key Party Mafia

Takes place at a motel in the middle of nowhere. A group of couples have gathered for a week of fun and games (orgies and partner swaps). Days take place in the lobby. Nights take place in rooms that people have drawn keys for.

Rooms with two people may night talk. Most likely ~half the people end up in the orgy room and are too "busy" to talk.

Haven't forgotten this idea from long, long ago. Not sure I'm looking to mod any time soon, but have been fiddling with a few ideas.

Anyone interested in running this idea want to flesh it out with me (or just develop it with me and we'll find a mod later).

I'd play in this.

Also this. And there has to be at least one doping scandal involved.

Mafia in the Mansion is much catchier. I probably wouldn't play because I suck at mafia but I'd be interested to read along.

Because googling an answer is much easier and far less risky than most methods of cheating in mafia.
