Many thanks to Cheetory6 and kiwieagle! I should be good to go, but I certainly won't object to another set of eyes looking it over.

Couple more for this would be nice before it goes to queue.-

Looking for few reviewers for a 18-players game based on Monogatari series (Up to season 2). Not a normal setup, flavor knowledge not required.Show"I used to think you had this elegant-trolly, minimalist playstyle. Then I realized the playstyle is ~Lazy~

Hi, I'd like a few people to help me do some balancing / tweaking on a large theme I've been working on called Emperors, Kings, and Dictators Mafia. The basic premise is that each player is a different famous (or imfamous) King/Monarch past or present, such as Churchill, Hitler, Cleopatra, Napoleon, etc. who fight to the death with their respective factions. It's going to be great and epic and whatnot, but I really need some other feedback at this point. Shoot me a PM!2023 W/L | 1-0-

The mechanical concept behind it is making it hard to tell whether it's balanced or not q.q
I've had someone comb it over once, but I'd appreciate a second or third set of eyes to give me some more feedback on this! Would really appreciate it-

Looking for a few kind souls to review a large theme game based on Persona 4. Sounds enticing, yes? It sure does. I can tell you're enticed just by looking at you. Don't try to deny it. Send me a PM, you naughty little so-and-so.
Thanks to Caledfwitch and Otolia for helping me with this! I won't turn down another eager reviewer, so be sure to send me a PM if you're still interested.Last edited by Skullduggery on Thu Apr 30, 2015 1:33 pm, edited 2 times in total.-

I need a reviewer and a backup mod for a 21-player Large Theme game based on the cartoon Steven Universe.
Flavor knowledge is not necessary.

I'm looking for (at least?) a couple of reviewers for a seventeen-player Large Theme game which I'm hoping to be able to start at some point over the summer, possibly August.
(Set-up and flavor is all done, barring review, but I'm not going to have any serious time for mafia for the next few months so I can't really hope to start any sooner. Would be nice to get things reviewed before then though...)
Theme is based on Steven Brust's Vlad Taltos series and at least one reviewer with some flavour knowledge would certainly be appreciated (but really isn't required).
Please PM me for details if you're interested.-

Another question is, do all games need to be reviewed? What happens if a game is reviewed but they think it's not balanced or something?
No. Not all games need to be reviewed. Non-Open Games are most often reviewed by at least one reviewer to check for various things. Always for balance, often for breaking strategies or interactions that the mod may have missed in design.
Large Theme Gamesrequirereviews. Smaller games to not require them but it is generally good form to have games reviewed.
This is a decent-length read written by Vi years ago on modding. There's a lot of good things in here.
RIP wrote:What happens if a game is reviewed but they think it's not balanced or something?
This is a bit more complex; reviewers generally must agree to the setup in its final state.
But generally the reviewer will give the mod their criticism and comments on the game.
The mod, being the creator/designer, can choose to add/remove/modify their setup as they wish. After all, if a mod wishes to run a game and ignore their reviewers they are fine to do so as long as the reviewer is not listed as giving their approval.
But generally reviewers are not asses and generally provide feedback or recommendations to balance a game."This is the true face of a man who plays paladin."
