I agree with this. I found it hard to keep track with the times changing, and missed a lot of votes. But I did enjoy the speed aspect of it at the same time.

Yes ^wss. It was good tactic on the your part to throw us off though. Also when they came in so fast, it had to be from an active player, but I didn't put DH in that role until too late.

I was playing DnD with Epi one lynch, and just told him to kill DREAM in the lynch post :P

I'm particularly proud that I found a way to improve this game.

-Didn't tunnel on Golden, was right not to.
-Managed to sort him and Long Con out before I went nuts on them.
-Caught MP07's forced response quick, responded late.

I definitely liked this format. If it's cool, I may run this at JTM sometime.

You played well, and I was concerned you might eventually turn your attentions to me.

I honestly never had a scumread on you. I should've pushed based on LC's suspicion of you once I felt he was cleared. But it never came to mind for me, so that's 100% hindsight.

I'm also glad I did not tunnel on you Missing. In fact I did a remarkably good job of not tunnelling on anyone for once (civ or bad). That's rare.

In fairness to you, I am a badass.


Also, I had Golden in my pocket for most of the game, Glad you weren't killed early this game Golden

I would change one thing: You get modkilled for posting over 4.

Bitches be tryna make me count an' shit.

Well, aside from that little part?

Golden wrote:Epi - I'd definitely play again. I'd be more relaxed about how much content I had. And I'd support a modkill for anyone who posts more than 4 times, MM found the loophole in your rules far too quickly.

Also, if I could change one thing, it would be the number of players. It plays as fast as a speed game anyway, I think you could definitely do it with 20-25. I think you almost need the time with so few posts per day.

That's what I'm here for. Hosts ain't gonna learn if we don't bend the rules. :P

Which means I'm gonna have to take extra care to specify the rules in games I run.

I don't mean that in a hostile way or that Epignosis doesn't know how to run a game, or something like that. Quite the contrary. But if the rules allow for a certain activity or behavior, I am happy to engage in it. I wasn't being an asshat (I don't think?) I wasn't pseudo-role outing or info-dropping. I realize the spirit of the game was to enforce the idea of quality over quantity in our posts, but I'm not a spirited mafia player. I'm a demon.

You don't have to explain yourself, you little fucking demon rodent from hell.

On a more serious note:

Do you think the 4 post 'limit' was the right number? Do you think it benefited one side more than the other, regardless of what actually happened in the game? Did the game pan out similarly or differently than you imagined, and are you happy with the result?

Yeah, Epi, are you happy with that totally unfair and discriminatory result? Answer!

I would definitely play a second round of this, and I would definitely maybe take it more seriously next time.

Definitely maybe?

Hey Golden, what did you think of OM?

Linki: a little, yeah.

What is OM?

Omertà Mafia.

OM is nothingness.

Oh, lol. I loved it! I really had fun. I quickly realised we couldn't win by just lynching those who weren't playing, and I don't think we ever righted that ship. Very frustrated with the TH lynch in particular. But as a concept, I thoroughly love it, and definitely reckon we should do it again.

I'm still happy with my sacrifice. I thought DREAM was for sure a civvie from the way the votes went down; if she had been lynched I probably would have been setup to get lynched the next Day anyways and I obviously had no way to defend myself. I wanted to take myself out before endgame scenarios, because we were doing so terribly (obviously I am just as much to blame for this :P ). So I kamikazed to go down in DREAM's place.

I could almost tell by the way you posted that we play similar in manner. I'm not surprised to find that to be the case.

You guys all played really well! Really looking forward to playing with you again.

This was a great introduction to mafia game. Although it was my second game, I found playing on this site a lot more daunting. I didn't lie in my posts...it genuinely took me about half the game to get to grips with all the new players. It was a good introduction to the site and I think it will make the next more complicated game easier for me.

Although I hope to god I'm civvie next time! Being mafia is fun, but I would like to experience it from the other side.

TinyBubbles wrote:good game guys !:) Neverwhere you did great, didn't suspect you haha

perhaps as a twist to the existing format, we could make the limit related to roles? as in, you can post as much as you want, but only about ONE particular character at a time. that would still steer the conversation towards a specific direction without limiting people's freedom to contribute.

mwahaha for the second time! Thanks though You should have just gone with your gut and killed me that first day. Next time I'm guaranteed to be civvie.

Being civilian is a great opportunity to be a paranoid wreck, constantly suspected as bad while getting everything wrong and feeling like the game is slipping away from you.

Just ask TB!

And you should sign up for Bullets over Broadway.

I was pretty awesome. I have to learn to tone down my keen Detective senses so I don't get NKed out of abject fear.

I just found out yesterday that Sam McDonald is still alive.

...Despite your best efforts?

Good thing we never actually lynched him.

From the shadows.
