[Lord of Castamere]

I honest to good want to moderate the next game, I am enjoying this mafia game but I also want to try my hand at creating a cohesive story with the next Mafia Project.

I pretty much have the dynamic figured out and its going to have a weird twist that I am sure will catch people by surprise yet make sense in context.

And the theme is Futurama.

See now I definitely don't want to moderate next game.

The withdrawal is real

I simplified my Roller Coaster Tycoon idea for GAFia S4; now it's People/Rides (Town) vs. Vandals (Mafia).

spoilers in case you don't want to know the mechanics/explanation, don't worry there aren't any role description spoilers

• Spoiler

  23 players. Role Madness - High Excitement/Medium Intensity/Very High Nausea.
• Spoiler

  Each player gets 2 roles, one as a Person and one as a Ride. It's like everyone has a favourite ride they want to go on.
• Spoiler

  During the day, everyone's technically in their People role; you're all basically voting for which Ride to visit and cross off your mystery attractions list when you vote to lynch someone out. It's assumed that the lynched Person "stays" on their role description's Ride, explaining their leaving of the group.
• Spoiler

  Each player may or may not have a passive ability that belongs to their Ride side, which only activates upon being lynched/ridden; this is the Ride gimmick of the theme.
• Spoiler

  Town wins once all the Vandals are "off the premises". Vandals win once everything and everyone has been graffiti'd, dented and vomited on out of commission.

TEARING ME APART: Lisa

 

[Droplet]

I still want to play a Resistance style game. No kills, just mission successes and failures. I'm not entirely sure how it would work on a forum though.

Are you talking about this game?

At BoardGameGeek they play it online.

Destiny Mafia.

Not many roles and you have to play Day Three over and over, but if you stick around for year it gets a lot better, maybe.

Yep! Sounds like it just needs to be played with less people. For the early deaths maybe??

We also switch mods halfway into the game because the first one keeps phoning in the flavor text.

Someone mentioned Death Note here or there and while I'm not one for the source material, time delay kills are interesting.

Yeah, I saw that mention too. There's definitely a great game to be made with that one.

This is such a cool idea. Law, Chaos and Neutral could somehow be a part of it too.

I think someone earlier this thread said that a batman themed mafia (using the Arkham Knight story as a base) would work and I'd agree.

Blarg gets to be the riddler.

 

[Palmer_v1]

While brainstorming, I considered a Sniper role for the mafia team. Has to spend one night setting up the kill, then kills on second night. Getting role blocked on either night interrupts the process and they show activity both nights.

There's also a Poisoner in Werewolf. Targets one night, but victim doesn't die until the next Night.

I would assume that poisoner only shows activity on a night they are applying poison? So if they skip a night and an earlier target dies then no suspicion?

I was thinking of that. Wouldn't it be more interesting if they dropped dead at a specific time in the day?

Like, the Death Note wielders will PM me a time on the following Day cycle. At that time, I throw up a post to show whose name was written.

Ah. I just wanted 2 big franchises that have crossed over for a Traveller game; I'd love to see 2 GM's pull it off, and I'd be willing to be 1 of them.

I'd love to see a Poisoner, honestly. And does the Sniper get his/her kill separate of the other Mafia?

That sounds like the Blarggiest game I can imagine. I gotta see how that plays out!

Spoiler

It's Gravity Falls, ain't it?

Also, glad to see my old Combat Buddy's back! I hope you cultists do a better job of keeping him alive than I did!

 

[Kalor]

Is it too soon to start asking for a Zero Escape flavored game? Maybe we should wait a couple seasons after Danganronpa before the next VN-inspired game...

Ok, ok. Persona-themed then?!

I've been working on a Zero Escape theme but I wouldn't be able to do it until around Season 5 just due to being busy. I might not stick with the theme but I have a unique mechanic for it.

 

[Swamped]

Ok, I'm off! Have fun in the DR thread everyone. I will definitely post Tuesday night/Wednesday morning, and I'll try my best to check in before then. But if i don't, don't accidentally replace me Launchpad!

If we're both hosts for S4, shame I won't be able to play in the Gravity Falls game We can hella collab though, I think my planned mystery theme will need a lot of balancing tweaks... a LOT

Just a heads up, I may be an hour or so late with the update today.

(Today, 04:20 PM)

Punish weed everyday.

I saw The Gift. It gave me new ideas on how to fuck with you guys.

GOP Presidential Ballot Mafia

Every week, you bible-thumping, job-creating, war-mongering, climate-change-denying good-for-nothing sons-of-bitches launch a smear campaign in tandem against one of your own to force them out of the race as the 2016 Presidential nomination looms ever closer.

But beware, Empress Hilary Clinton has sent her manchurian candidates among you to sabotage what little unity you had. You need to figure out who they are and destroy their careers or the GOP can never hope to gain the White House.

Spoiler

Ron Paul is the neutral role.

I laughed pretty damn hard at this.

Also, still working on an X-Com theme for next round. It was going to be the Base Assault portion of X-Com, but now that feels kind of derivative of Archer Gafia ;_;

If everyone's working on their own flavor I call dibs on Doctor Who.

If the base is good, does it really matter? Dangan is slightly derivative of AC. The role setup is the big part.

Good call! I was trying to think of a way to make this work myself, the closest I came up with was

Spoiler

that The Doctor's Tardis is malfunctioning, so the Tardis will appear once a day and once a night. His companions and a couple of his enemies are all present, but alien technology has made them all look like normal people. Once per day and night, the players throw someone into the reappearing Tardis, where the Doctor locks them up.

It's not amazing, but it's what I came up with.

The Gravity Falls game I'm working on is similar to AC as well, although I've got some fun twists that I think people won't see coming. (Also, no map shenanigans.)

I have nothing to do, so I'll give it a shot:

UNIT has finally convinced the Doctor to give its top ranking members, along with some of his old companions, a tour of the TARDIS. However, unbeknownst to them, a group of Zygons (and some other enemies using Zygon tech) have infiltrated UNIT, and manage to make it aboard as well. During the tour the Doctor approaches the Heart of the TARDIS, and that's when the Zygons reveal their presence, attempting to destroy it by deploying a <PLOT DEVICE> that will gradually decompose it.

However, the TARDIS manages to activate one of its many fail-safe mechanisms, halting its destruction by freezing the TARDIS in time, which makes it impossible to exit. The Zygons play one last gambit and deploy some sort of agent that modifies everyone's perception of each other, making everyone unable to recognize themselves.

The TARDIS is damaged and needs the Doctor and his friends' help, but if a single enemy where to sabotage the repairs, it would be destroyed. The Doctor comes up with a plan: Logic the fuck out of who's who, and every 24 hours allow the TARDIS to unfreeze time just for a minute, in order to expel the saboteurs. When there are no saboteurs left, he and his friends will repair the TARDIS before the <PLOT DEVICE> destroys it.

Also, Jenny appears at some point to give myself closure because Moffat won't.

This is Gafia though so the tardis will end up destroyed.

 

[El Topo]

I'd say the biggest challenge is coming up with an interesting spin (that nonetheless allows easy accessibility). Something like Stargate Mafia is easy to implement, but probably doesn't allow for much variety.

True.
