Ask Samadhi (Theory and Practices)

[Samadhi]

Mith mentioned I would answer questions about theory when he set this all up. Needless to say, I lag.

If you have any questions about my personal opinions about how to moderate a game or play a role, feel free to ask. I do not promise that my opinions will be shared by the majority (or anyone )

Why have you stopped playing?

I hate playing as a doctor. Any ideas on how a player stuck with this dead end role can make the game more interesting for them?

Antrax: "Why have you stopped playing?"
I haven't.

Drink copious amounts of liquor. Oh, you mean something new?

Treat the role with the importance it deserves. As a doctor it is your job to out think the mafia. Doing so successfully can be very satisfying. If you are skilled you may even be able to subtlely manipulate their choice by what you say. But most importantly, deal with it. You can't always be the [insert favorite role here].

But I love being [insert favorite role here]!
Anyhow, I haven't seen you sign up to any games lately. Surely there's a reason for that.

You only think you haven't seen me signing up and playing.
