More mafia?

[Jamiet99uk]

So somebody's going to die without getting to play at all?

In the one game I played offsite that "started" at night, the cop just gets to perform a scan. No one was killed. I imagine cop can scan and hooker can hook in this setup and nothing else would happen.

Someone might be killed. The Mafia may attempt a NK on N1.

Remember the "starting during the day" thing we usually do here is quite unusual. Most Mafia / Werewolf sites and most face-to-face games start at night by default. They vary on whether you're allowed to talk at night. In this instance, we will have talk at night.

If you want that, just make a game with eight players. Signing up to play and then dying before you get to play is shitty.

You can do night start with no nk right? I don't think we should have a player dying before the game even starts that's just irritating

Night is an entire phase, 24 hours long, during which everyone gets to play.

You might as well argue that nobody should be lynched on Day 1.

How is it "before you get to play"?

[Jamiet99uk]

Just to be clear, what I am proposing is that the game starts with a night phase. At the BEGINNING of that night phase, everyone gets their role PMs, and everyone can post in the thread for the entire duration of that first night.

It's not pre-game - it's the first actual phase of play.

By the time the first person dies, the game will have been running for 24 hours and everyone will therefore have had a chance to play for 24 hours.

Naw I personally don't want to play like this. Getting nk'd n1 is annoying enough. If you're going to use the standard most mafia games use then use no night talking as well. Otherwise, why not just stick to what we know and love

However, if people are seriously opposed to this (even though it's the norm elsewhere), I will start on D1.

I'm just mindful of the fact that several people coming to webDip after playing Mafia / Werewolf elsewhere have felt our approach to the game, starting with D1, is inherently townsided because normally the Mafia get the first kill in.

The newbie game I played on mafiascum did not have a scum kill before the game started

[brainbomb]

Oh weird shit.

Nice. Can we just make this role madness

GM ANNOUNCEMENT

Ok, right, fine. We fear change. Got it.

The game will begin on Day One as normal.

However:

- Role PMs will be sent out 12 hours before Day One begins. At this time, the Mafia QT will open, and the two Mafia players may talk to each other in there until D1 begins.



Okay?

[brainbomb]

Sure. I was fine with either. We all.already confirmed. So if we didnt read the fine print its not yer fualt

[rdrivera2005]

Mafia without some drama isn't Mafia.
And as I am a confirmed town you can kill me on N-1 if you want.

[Jamiet99uk]

GM NOTE

The MINI MAFIA 1 game thread will be posted in the next few minutes - please also look out for your role PM.

If you are Mafia you will be able to use the Mafia QT for 12 hours before D1 starts.

[peterlund]

Now the bot is set to track also this mini game.
You find the game status page for it here on the bot:

http://mafia.peterlund.se/e/web/game_status?g=1002

If you forget, you find it also easily on just "mafia.peterlund.se".

Thank you, Peter.
