Chicago Meetup: donezo. .

[Thestatusquo]

ok but I meant that I am making a role deck with just roles in it that you can then take with you and use in whatever games you want to in other places.

What roles should go in that deck? Should it be the same ones as the Always Just Around The Corner MS.net Official Deck or are
there different things people want?

[Hoopla]

put me down for a 2% chance

[Faraday]

I suppose I could just do a very similar role list to the official MS card deck found here:

http://www.mafiascum.net/cardlist.htm

Just without the card art.

I think that's a pretty decent list, fair amount of variety. Would be p cool, too.

[Thestatusquo]

I don't think it needs to be quite that big, though. 6 goons is excessive, for instance. Is anyone ever going to run a rl game with 30 players? Probably not.

[dramonic]

If I mod I can fit 6 goons in a 10p game

[Bulbazak]

Hmmm... I might be back in then. It depends on the AirBnb. I'll donate towards it, and it's a lot better than hotel stays. It would definitely cut down on the overall cost of the trip.

[Marquis]

officially can't make it so i will be there in spirit

[BROseidon]

I'm thinking the base for the deck would be:

x Mafia
x Werewolf
x Serial Killer
x Vanilla
1 doctor

1 cop

1 vigilante
1 tracker
1 watcher
4 mason

Which leaves us a lot of roles to put in the deck in addition to that.

No.

[BROseidon]

It's 2016 we shouldn't be using cops anymore.

[Thestatusquo]

You really think that no setup anywhere should use a cop?

Rly?

[AngryPidgeon]

If I mod I can fit 6 goons in a 10p game

Pretty sure Fate did this at some point

[Thestatusquo]

Isn't that game like definitionally not mafia?

[Axxle]

He miscounted the roles iirc

[Llamarble]

Since we're thinking about distributed hosting, let's put a who's staying with who list in the first post.
My place is pretty convenient if you're coming from OHare since you can just get on the blue line (stops in the airport) and get off a 2 minute walk from my place.

Edit: wasn't following super closely. Centralizing everything is a good plan too!

[Faraday]

I don't think it needs to be quite that big, though. 6 goons is excessive, for instance. Is anyone ever going to run a rl game with 30 players? Probably not.

You could probably nix a few. Tracker and watcher are staples but are somewhat awkward face to face. You could probably use 3/4 goons and have it be fine, though

[Faraday]

Ya, even just who's going would be good. Do ur job Cabd!

[Thestatusquo]

Everyone will be in one place tonight for MAFIA POTLUCK!

So hopefully we'll get some coordination done.

Give cabd a break, he's in the middle of planning his wedding.

[BROseidon]

Rly?

If you're using a cop, it means there's bad design somewhere in your setup that you should probably fix.

[dramonic]

you sound like scum who got investigated.

[BROseidon]

I don't think I've ever been hit by a cop.

It's just shitty design.

[SleepyKrew]

OH SHIT IS THE POTLUCK TONIGHT

[InflatablePie]

cop is fine as one-shot, especially in f2f imo.

I'm thinking the base for the deck would be:

x Mafia
x Werewolf
x Serial Killer
x Vanilla
1 doctor
1 cop
1 vigilante
1 tracker
1 watcher
4 mason

Which leaves us a lot of roles to put in the deck in addition to that.

how big would we want to make the deck?

lovers are always a good f2f mechanic. have 2-3 town vanilla lovers, a few town PR lovers (prob just Cop and Doc if we're staying barebones), and some vanilla&pr lovers for Mafia/WW.
survivor and lynchers (player to your left and right) for silly/drunk setups. innocent child too I guess.
vengeful townies and supersaints are fun
mafia and ww masons, duh
anti-town factions probably want a cop, doc, roleblocker, bus driver/redirector, maybe tracker/watcher?


also, I will totally attempt to run one or more u-picks during the meet. I have so many role ideas I want to use but no patience to run games on the forum <_<

[dramonic]

Im up to mod nightmare fuel stuff :3
or normal stuff.

[Chevre]

OK, I did the work because I'm strange. Caveats:

- If you said you were /in, you're in the /in list
- If you posted in this thread and did not explicitly claim you were /out, you're in the /interested list.
- If you haven't posted but a loved one mentioned you, you're on the list (but you're probably not reading this anyway)
- If I didn't notice any claims to lodging, I didn't put any lodging notes next to your name

Please correct profusely

[Marquis]

actually I just learned about Southwest's no-fee flight change policy.

If lodging is cheap, I can make it (if the AirBNB is confirmed I'll pitch in to the best of my ability).
