I saw Vyse post one of these in his region forums, and I thought it would be great to do here (+ I'm tired of waiting in line in DGames =D )

So are you guys ready to step it up? The town is not safe. ;)

I'm in!

Who's gonna be the game mod? You or mike g? Or is he just there to say that this shouldn't be closed cuz a mod said it's okay?

EDIT: Is it just Mafia and townspeople or are there complicated things like cops and serial killers? It's be way better (in my opinion) if there were just mafia and townspeople.

I'm the game mod. I just had "/mikeg approbed" because I asked him to make sure someone other Mod wouldnt close it.

Also, I said in my first post there were only mafia/town. I even specified how many of each. =P

Are we doing quantum werewolf?
I have no idea what that is. Did you even read the topic?

Ok I used to play this game back in the day on mIRC.

This looks way more complicated though which looks like it would make it less fun.

It used to be just 2 mafia, a seer and the rest civilians i think. Minimum was a 7 person game.

If you use the more simplistic version I'll play. All this cop/serial killer/doctor/vigilante/mason crap sounds dumb.

It's 9 civilians and 3 mafians, that's it. I played something similar to this on aim. Mad fun, forgot what it was called.

No, its not just mafia and civilians.

Theres ALWAYS a snitch/seer or a role that can look to see if someone is a civilian or a mafia during the night.

Thus the seer wants to stay alive and find out the roles of as many players as possible to help the civilians and the mafia wanna kill the seer as fast as possible.

Trust me the seer is a crucial element in the game and it would not be fun at all without one.

Wait this is gonna be played through smashboards lololol????

The only proper way to play mafia game is through realtime chat. Playing this game over a period of a week sounds like a really bad idea to me.

K so I have a gift to mafiagame players on smashboards. I found the mIRC channel I used to play on and it's still alive with people playing.

Download mIRC and go to /server irc.prison.net

then type /join #wolf

It's called wolfgame now but its the same thing. It's mad fun I suggest giving it a try. Minimum is 9 players and there are 2 wolf, a seer, and the rest civilians.

This is a mountainous set-up. There doesn't -need- to be anything in a mafia game other than townspeople and Mafioso. If you don't like that, don't play. Sadly, I can't /in for this one. I'm in too many mafia games already. I'll be keeping an eye on this one though. :]

Handorin, if you need a replacement mod for any reason, let me know and I can fill in when you need to be away/take over if it comes to that.

oooorrr, we could have a real game of mafia with the spy, and then everyone wins. Because that's how you're supposed to fvcking play.

Attention:

When I said "9 town members and 3 mafia" I meant in a general sense. I won't confirm or deny any other roles such a cop, doc, etc.; however, they are in the game. I didn't know the amount of experience outside of Decisive Games, so I made a relativity basic setup.

P.S. Forum mafia > Chat Mafia

No, there's sooooooooooooooooo many variations on the game and the way it can be played it's ridiculous. Don't assume that the way you learned how to play is the only and the right way to play, it just makes you look ignorant.

I'm not implying there's only one way to play, but considering it from a strategy standpoint, taking out the roles of the spy and doctor just detract from the overall strategy of the game. The spy has the job of trying to get mafia members killed off while not revealing that he is the spy becoming a potential target for other mafia members. The amount of work needed to sway the opinion subtly I think is essential. I don't think the doctor has nearly that kind of important role, but I think he also can learn vital information as he actually saves people, plus end game the doctor may have just as good an idea of the mafia as the spy.

Now, I cannot personally conceive of other roles that might be a part of the many mafia variations to add to spy and doctor, but I'm sure they exist, and depending, might be a nice addition.

Thanks for actually responding in a sincere manner. Sorry if I came off douchy at all with my post. You know how the internet goes, I was gearing up for a debate and to defend myself. Haha.

lol how???

Playing the game all at once and getting it done in an hour/hour and 1/2 is soooooo much better than playing over a week on a forum.

I can't even fathom how dumb mafiagame on a forum sounds...

Everyone should go on to that mIRC channel i posted and play a game to see how much better it is.

If you have to argue my opinion, then I don't even care. Go look in decisive games to see why we like it more.

I made this thread for the game, not to debate something totally different.

Edit: in fact, we have a thread dedicated to chat mafia.

i guess you've never heard of mafiascum. there are so many kinds of mafia. IRL mafia, chat mafia run through websites or IRC, forum mafia, etc. its dumb to say "x way is better you should play y way."

and yeah wtf there needs to be a spy, and there should be a doctor to save civilians there usually is.
again, there are a lot of different roles. there doesnt need to be the ones you are used to, but they might be in the game. they might be named different things. i know you said you don't know of them, but there's actually like in the OP to a bunch of different possible roles.

Sorry I haven't updated at all today. I just got off a 13 hour shift.

The game is full though. I need to go to sleep now though because I open tomorrow. I promise I will send role PMs tomorrow night after work and will start shortly thereafter.

I'm only jumping on this if we do quantum werewolf.


* Quantum Werewolf - This variant was developed by Steven Irrgang and used for a puzzle in the 2008 CISRA Puzzle Competition. He later published more formal rules so that it could be a fully playable variant. The difference from a standard game of Mafia is that players are not initially assigned roles, but rather on each day are given the probabilities describing the games current quantum state. Each player with a non-zero probability of being a seer or a werewolf performs the appropriate night actions (which may not be effective if it is later determined that the player did not have that role). When a player is killed, the wave function collapses and the players are given updated probabilities.[51]

Mike wants to watch, but will replace in.

I already have a full game, so I'm not changing my whole game just for one person.
