Banjo-Kazooie Mafia [GAME OVER]

[JaggedJimmyJay]

New poll

[Tangrowth]

I put Option 3 ("I see the appeal, but it's not for me."), but I'm not hardline on that. I could be convinced to play a Racket game with the right host and/or playerlist, and it might be a better kind of game for me under certain work conditions. I'm going to have to figure out a new approach to playing though.

Thanks for hosting though, Jay, this was a great experience even if frustrating at times. I suppose that's a function of town games in general too though.

[MacDougall]

Excellent execution mafia team. Especially Russ.

Basically same. I think I'd do better with a somewhat more generous post cap, but aside from the direct restriction on my freedom to spam the thread (lol) my other issue with post cap games is that when people are forced to make fewer posts they tend to make longer posts, and I find reading a series of walls much more draining than scrolling through a large quantity of short and to-the-point posts (and that correlates with the back-and-forth feel of real-time interaction as well).

I agree completely with this. I think a Heist/Racket hybrid would intrigue me greatly if the cap were relatively generous but not excessive.

[JaggedJimmyJay]

I went low on the restriction deliberately -- 25 is very tight. I wanted the type to open with a truly slow game to see what it could be like. In the end we have as many posts as most heists, somewhat to my surprise. I suspect future Rackets will usually offer more than 25 posts, Jiggies or not.

Yeah, you're probably right. I wholeheartedly believe it was a worthwhile experience regardless of where things go from here.

I also am firmly of the belief that removing the cap prior to EoD is effective at removing the shackles so to speak, but I know there are different opinions on that.

[JaggedJimmyJay]

Some hosts may be inclined to lift the caps in that way. I wanted to avoid unfairness by time zone, and I know some players have complained in faster games that "the whole day is pointless until everything happens at the end" or some such.

[Sloonei]

Jiggies were a neat wrinkle to add in what was technically our first official venture into this format. I liked that, as the player pool shrunk, the post cap grew. It opened the mid-game up quite a lot after feeling very confined on Day 1.

[Sloonei]

since people thought i was just being a jerk:

Day 0 begins now and will last 24 hours. Each player may post a maximum of 25 times during Day 0. All Jiggy pursuits, night actions, and voting will not take place until Day 1 and onward. You may begin posting.

y'all wasting moments time with each rhyme. all that effort in vain for no benefit gain.

i'm just subverting the obvious rhymes that should have been there. it's very humorous wordplay, please laugh.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

One weird thing about this format is that it affects people differently. I never felt too pressured by it. Meanwhile people who are used to post a constant stream ot thoughts found themselves forced to change their playstyles.

Maybe make some system where a low poster can donate posts to a high poster, or something.

Oh no, I'm not sure I want to re-live Golden 2.0.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

Really good game russ and co., well deserved win

[Russtifinko]

Sorry but I was hoping Russ would block Sloonei on Night 4 just so I could laugh at the eternal futility of his role

I would have laughed pretty hard.

But that block... such an accidental source of WIFOM attached to Turnip Head's role there. I was convinced turnip was bad because that role should be dead the instant it claims 9 times out of 10. The only exception is a mafia roleblock.

Oh, I was well aware of the WIFOM I was causing here. I lucked into a lot of things this game, but that was intentional.

Hah! I never even noticed this. Well done.

Ooh! Llama and I hosted an economists' mafia a few years ago. That sounds fun.

Linki: Thanks NANOOK!

Folks, if you are interested, sign up for my burglary.

It will be hosted this sunday, hopefully.

[Turnip Head]

I really liked the Racket posting cap and how it got expanded overtime with the jiggies/rhyming minigame. I thought the pace was really good and made the game easy to follow. I might take a little break but I plan to play more rackets in the future.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Well played, scumbos.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Idk how you guys changed Dunya’s dream like that but it was really effective.

[dunya]

I'm so sorry Turnip. I should have not let the distancing / game mechanic get to me and listened to who was more authentic. I blame myself

[dunya]

I am glad I played this game with you. I don't know if this format was enjoyable to me at all times. It felt restrictive and uncomfortable I guess. But on the other hand, I didn't have time to read 100 pages so at least I was able to keep up.

As a whole, I don't think the anxiety of mafia is thrilling me anymore so I too will be taking an extended break.

Sorry for fucking it up for you, townies. Y'all were great. And Jack, I can't read you for shit. I admit it.

[Epignosis]

JJJ can't be a spaceship commander anymore. Come help out.

It's not really your fault! I probably never would have voted Russ. I think you played really well

Shame Tony had to get lynched for you to admit it.

me in the last game: "if I sub out I'm almost definitely scum"
me here: oops


I ended up reading almost everything after day 3 anyways

Shameless plug for the next racket: viewtopic.php?f=274&t=1880

obligatory HOF reminder
also Assassin's Creed

[colonialbob]

Also I want a moment of silence for @colonialbob. I now know how crap he felt that one game and understand the relief he felt when he finally got mislynched.

I don't remember what game this was but I just want to pop in two months later and sympathize.

Ah yes. Feels.

Things are topsy turvy but overall I can't really complain, especially given everything going on in the world right now. Hope you're doing well too!
