This game will be a little different; it's going to be played off-site.
I've opened a php board and set up some tags that will help both with modding and with playing. Just a few of the new features that will make this way less painful include...
ISO's, so now you can search the thread and see only one person's posts.
Dynamic countdowns in all votecounts so you can see exactly how much time is left.
Greater selection of tags including actual italics, tables, font colors/sizes/types, and more.
Preview edits, meaning the site will inform you if someone ninja'd you and posted while you were writing your post.
Here's the board: http://emforummaf.prophpbb.com/ If you're going to play, you have to sign up there. At the end of the game we can discuss whether hosting off-site was better or worse.
When you register, it'll tell you an admin needs to approve you. That's me, just let me know you signed up and I'll approve you (I do this to prevent spam bots registering).
Anyway; about the actual game. Some quick details.
Role madness again; everyone is a PR.
15 players.
72 hour days, 24 hour nights.
My beautiful assistant Retti will be co-modding.
Sign up's will still be here; post below. I've got plenty of pre-in's but anyone who doesn't get in more than welcome to queue as a replacement.
I mean, I think himiko just has a playstyle that I find personally scummy. Now that I'm aware it's her town tone I'm hoping I'll have more of an idea going into other game?
"Though Impoetic is playing a bit of a more opportunistic game than Jae; she might decide it better to not instantly counterclaim Nicole like I suspect Jae would depending on the scenario."
pfft please mist I wouldn't have let my ride to victory out... I would have :P
yeah i sent tart & nicole the wrong role PM's. which normally would just make me reverse them in the document to set things right but since I'd already had Tartosis gladiate someone that wasn't an option. Sorry >_< though that error did sort of end up being a plus for scum
ftr, that's what Nicole meant when she said should could clear herself. she thought she had Tartosis' role. which uh... you all saw how that went.
The best part was that me and Nicole were given eachothers' role PM's, so I was under the impression that I could dodge a day 1 lynch by claiming role cop. The next day I wake up notified that I am actually an infinite-shot bulletproof, got executed, and gladiated the towniest player in the game.

maybe in awhile. i think retti has a different sort of game he wants to host, not 100% on any details there. i'd like to host more as these are always fun but it is a biiit discouraging whenever you have a stomp like this. there's only so many ideas i have floating around in my head and when something like this happens it feels like some of them went to waste because it won't have the same effect if i use them again :c
i likely will host again though. want to give other people the chance & take some time for my creative juices to return though.
You should host another like this, with the pretty cards and whatnot. I'd join this time. Even though I'd be scared lol

that would very much be a game which would require forewarning (there seemed to be some confusion about that this game actually? this game was not ). i did actually host a setup like that on mafiascum though! all but two players were jesters but they'd flip as mafia or town depending on the slot.
After the 2nd maf flip, i thought about everyone being secret miller and mafia being town miller LOL

haha, if you thought this was complex you should see the game i have in the theme queue on mafiascum. I haven't announced details yet but suffice it's... interesting. highly complex. i've designed it so everyone has an equal opportunity to have an impact on the game but also that there shouldn't be a huge amount of swing and that it's going to come down far more to scumhunting than power roles.

Yeah, you were pretty relaxed during the whole ordeal, so that was pretty towny of you.
"So JaeReed believes they're into the trap of playing too well as Survivor. The best way to play as Survivor is to try to be towny but WRONG. As in; you should make some effort to townread the people you believe are truly the mafia so they're less likely to kill you."
lol this in the mod/dead thread is great because I think I kinda did this unwittingly. This was a good game to have bad reads on.
Also Gerry never tells me his alignment and makes me read the entire game and guess. I so thought he was mafia... Particularly after the Tart flip. Gerry stop being so scummy
:[ I'll be honest Awnyy, when you asked me if I still scumread you, I lied and said I didn't, but you did get a lot townier, especially day 2 when you said you were clear. Day 1 was just rocky.
When i said i was clear, i was. I visited user and he couldve confirmed myself if i wanted to. I was also clear (from reads) since i literraly said no to execute gerry when he was at L-1 with you jae and soda who wanted to get him, then i pushed sooo hard on tartosis. Anyway, those moments made the game
