Day one has begun.
standard mafia rules.
There are no explanations.
There is very little information.
Day one ends in exactly one week or approximately 12 hours after a 4 vote threshold has been reached.
Night will last approximately 48 hours from the posting of dusk.
Vote in bold blue
Unvote in bold red
I am highly unlikely to give a useful answer to any questions asked.

Well this should be fun (Oog - had a great New Years eve and now I'm very hung-over - need some Cola Zero and a big burger before I'll try to think)

It should indeed. (What's a hangover? Idon't think I've ever had one.)
There's not much room to manoevre with this size of game. A straightforward setup would be 2 Mafiate and four Town, all vanilla - but I can't see that lasting long as the game starts at LyLo.
So what has MrB done to throw twists into the game, hmm? Any ideas?
*makes sure he has notifications on.*

It seems unfair to only have one scum in the game. So how about 4 town and 2 PFKs?
In a game this small a vig/SK seems very unlikely *lol* but I'm not to good at guessing numbers!

My thinking was that for a Mafia to be a Mafia, they need to know who each other are - it's one of the two fundamental attributes of a Mafia. (The other is the Nightkill.) But, if the smallest possible Mafia would have a huge chance of ending the game on Night 1 (which appears to me to be the case) how can such a game be played? So if there can't be a two-person Mafia. If so, we have one or two singletons running around with their own agenda. What their wincons are we'll have to see. Will there even be Nightkills?

Day one has begun. standard mafia rules. I read "standard mafia rules" as scum can Nightkill - so we must have 1 or 2 scum in this game (right?). If we had 3 it would be game over and if we don't have scum - it would not be standard mafia rules What color do you want us to ask mod-questions in??
And do we have scum that can NK in this game?

Hmm, 6 people. This will be a strange game. I will return once my brain stops pulsating wildly. I try to think, and all I get are spaceship noises.

What up party people!
If you are following the game on the SDMB you may know that I recently (hopefully temporarily) lost my home computer due to an issue with my apartment flooding. (Yay for natural disasters in my home!) But I can post toDay, and will probably post a lot. Though I might not.
We'll see.

I have been thinking about the composition of the teams, and I'm wondering if perhaps we are dealing with 2 PFK and 4 Town. Myabe the PFKs have a personal wincon *and* a joint wincon? Just a thought.

Post by aubby on Jan 2, 2009 12:07:51 GMT -5
So that would be like having 2 scum, but not a true scum team, bufftabby?

I found this in the "Let's talk about Game Mechanics a bit": psychopathgame.proboards106.com/index.cgi?board=temp&action=display&thread=85&page=2#6577Here's a typical semi-closed setup for a newbie game at mafiascum: a) 2 mafia, 1 cop, 1 doc, 3 townies b) 2 mafia, 1 cop, 4 townies c) 2 mafia, 1 doc, 4 townies d) 2 mafia, 5 townies So in any game, there's a 50% chance of there being a Cop, a 50% chance of there being a Doc, and 25% of there being both or neither. I know this game only has 6 players... but still we could have: 2 scum (9 points) and 1 doc/cop and 3 vanilla (that would be something like 7 points - if I got it right).

Well, I like MHaye to be alive late in the game. He is shmat (smart, for those of you who don't read Girl Genius. And if you don't, WHY NOT? Go, read, now. NOW!) TL flirts with me, I'm gonna say that gets her somewhere. I don't know where yet, but it isn't a vote. Tabby in integral to the breaking of TLs curse, so she can't die. Aubby is a newbie, and it sucks to kill the newb on Day 1 I am not going to vote for myself... Sorry Mitey, you are the only one left vote Mitey.

I'm ashamed. I'm ashamed to admit that it took me more than half a minute to recognise the artist on GirlGenius. I blame the port.

Well, if I'm ever gonna get anywhere with NAF and TL, I'd better do as I'm told. (TMI: I *love* to be bossed around!) vote miteymouse[/color] Hell, y'all can kill me toMorrow; I just need to make it through the Night to break the curse!

Wow... this moves fast. I wonder where we are getting. I'm all for breaking the curse, tho.

I think we're all for breaking the curse.
Not sure who to vote for yet. My options are Mitey or Someone Else.
I decline to vote Mitey just now, because that sets a 12 hour clock running. My other alternatives are Aubby the new girl, Buftabby, NAF or Total Lost.
Bufftabby and TL have to stay alive to make out break their curse, Aubby is new. I'm not voting for me. That leaves NAF.
Nah, I'll wait until MiteyMouse gives some sort of reason why she doesn't want to be killed.

How did I get many votes on me already! I don't want to die yet! Someone's gotta die first. Look, if this turns out to be a mistake I will volunteer to be the one offed tomorrow. I don't know how we will be able to tell that it is a mistake though what with the lack of card flip after death.

Post by bufftabby on Jan 2, 2009 20:03:28 GMT -5
I think that if TL and I make out, NAF and MHaye should have to make out. It's only fair. ;D
This no-card-flip thing is going to be interesting. With any luck, the scum (or PFK or whomever?) will just act really freakin scummy.
