The people in that video were remarkably slow to adapt to changing conditions. They would not survive in the wild.

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
If we don't fill by the 8th, is there any way we can run this game with a smaller number, then we can always try it again later? Or would you prefer to keep the 13-15 player setup in tact?JaggedJimmyJay wrote:If this isn't filled up by about the 8th, I'm going to have to push it back so that G-Man's politics game can occur near to the date of the presidential inauguration. This isn't a complaint or anything, just an FYI.
Let's make this happen soon!
I'll see if I can find people.

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
I suppose it can be managed at a smaller number if all of the players would still be interested in that. I'd need 9 at a bare minimum though to get a reasonable alignment ratio.

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
That'd be completely fine with me, although obviously it'd be preferable to stick to your original number constraints.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:I suppose it can be managed at a smaller number if all of the players would still be interested in that.

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
I just wonder if seeing it progress a first time around might make it easier for any players who are hesitant to jump on board due to the vocal concept to do so a second time around. Maybe I'm wrong though.

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
I don't think you're wrong. While for some there are understandable time constraints that make a game like this tough to manage, I do think the embarrassment factor plays a big role. I wouldn't expect this to get sign ups any faster after G-Man's game.

I hate hearing and recording my own voice, so I was a bit hesitant myself, but hell, it'll be fun.JaggedJimmyJay wrote:I don't think you're wrong.

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
If I get one more player I can start the game immediately.

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
Oh what the heck. Might as well consider throwing myself in a game one last time this year. A nine-player format gives me bad-memory vibes on the odds of civilians getting a good lynch within a two-phase margin, but que sera, sera.
Awaiting G-Man's confirmation on whether he is able to play or not, I can then be the ninth player, should the answer be "not".

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
But now that I see it, there is no ongoing Heist, so can't G-Man's Heist be put in sign-ups for a slot, while letting this in standby for the second slot until the numbers are more generous or until it's decided small is the best size we can run with?

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
I'd prefer to just run it. This is already a game with unique demands and the longer sign-ups drag the harder it will be to keep all the "yes" voters invested. I don't mind doing a small game; it might give people who are hesitant to play a recorded game an opportunity to see how it goes. Maybe there'll be a better opportunity at some later date to try again.
Don't worry about balance. If I get 9 that'll be good.

Re: Vocaroo Mafia [SIGN-UPS]
On that note, I should say that it'll be pretty much impossible for me to play from the evening of the 11th through the 14th since I'll be in Orlando for an accounting/auditing conference, so apologies for that inconvenience. That should be the only obstacle though.

You could, instead, record conference ambient noise and post that.MovingPictures07 wrote:On that note, I should say that it'll be pretty much impossible for me to play from the evening of the 11th through the 14th since I'll be in Orlando for an accounting/auditing conference, so apologies for that inconvenience.

Not to mention that, in his place, I'd be in my hotel room after dinner, re-recording myself 100 times.
If I do end up playing, the more the game will stretch towards the second half of the month, the worse it'll be for me, but I've been there before. Plus, I have a feeling the three cycles I got to live in Haiku were rather too generous.

I'm tempted to sign up for this game and only post various types of ambient noise for the whole thing.
