Micro 722: Limited Time Offer! Game Over...already!

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Wed Jun 21, 2017 10:58 am

Post by Aristophanes »

Welcome all, to this Limited Time Offer!!!

The following post contains the rule set for this game. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns (or just want to say hello), please hit me up with a PM!

Finally, Thanks For Playing! =D

Rules


General Gameplay and Etiquette:

Spoiler:
1. Read these rules. By asking any questions that can be answered by reading these rules, I reserve the right to point and laugh while answering.

2. Play to win and have fun! I don't know why these are always mutually exclusive in rule setups. Just enjoy and don't be a jerk! Good luck! :)

3. You may not quote private information (either real or fabricated) of any kind. This includes information discussed in any private chats, neighbourhoods, PMs, etc. Paraphrasing (for role claims, etc.) is acceptable. If you are unsure, ask first.

4. There is to be no personal communication outside of the forum postings unless your role PM specifically allows it.

5. If you have a role with a Night action, your choices are due to me by the posted deadline. If I do not receive your choice via PM or via Post in your PT by the posted deadline you will forfeit your actions. A simple “No Action” PM or post makes it so I'm not worried you forgot to send me something.

6. As a general rule you should aim to post a every 24 hours, minimum, to keep the game moving. I know some of you like to lurk, but don't make a habit of it please. I will prod players after 36 hours of inactivity. If you do not respond to a prod after 12 hours, I will start searching for a replacement. If you are prodded 2 times within the game, I will prod you after each 24 hours of inactivity, with no grace periods, and replace as necessary. In this game, the Night Phase is included in these rules.

7. No invisible, impossibly small, or encrypted text. I feel this is a given though.

8. Don't edit or delete posts, whether you can or not.

9.
This (#800080) is my colour. Don't use it please.


10. Basically, follow all Site Rules.


Voting, Deadlines, and Player Death:

Spoiler:
1. This game will have public voting with and will start with a 7 day Dayphase D1, after which Days will be limited to 60 hours!

2. Night phases will last 7 days and throughout the game. All actions must be submitted to myself (Aristophanes) by this time.

3. Please submit votes as: VOTE: PlayerName or
Vote: PlayerName
 in the thread. Votes will NOT be counted if they are not Bolded or Vote Tagged! Obvious abbreviations or nicknames will be counted so long as they are unambiguous. They will also not count if they are spoilered. A spoilered vote is a joke vote in the eyes of this Mod.

4. Please submit vote revocations as 
Unvote: PlayerName
 or UNVOTE: . Unvotes are not necessary before changing votes.

5. You may vote for a "No Lynch" if you would like. Unlike for a regular hammer, it takes half of the players' votes in order to succeed.

6. Once majority is reached, the game enters twilight until I post a death scene or lock the thread (obviously); all players including the one who was lynched may continue to post during twilight.

7. You may post one "Bah" post after death so long as it contains no game relevant information.


Mechanics/Miscellaneous:

Spoiler:
1. This game will begin with Day 1.

2. Standard NAR applies.

3. This is a closed setup, so I reserve the right to refuse answering any of your questions.

4. The moderator will never lie to you. All information you are disclosed is true. However, this post plus your role PM is all I will tell you, not counting clarification per request.

5. Cheating may ban you from future Mafia rounds. Don’t do it.

6. If you are going V/LA or suspect you will be unable to post, please let me know, either inthread by
Bolding it
or via PM. Both I and your fellow scummers will appreciate this courtesy.

7. If I missed any important rules, please let me know!


Special Game Mechanics

Spoiler:
1. Each Player will begin the game in 2 Neighbourhoods, one of which is their own, and one of which is the domain of someone else.

2. Each Neighbourhood will have a Neighbourizing ability which will be voted on by those who inhabit it. The original person in the Neighbourhood will have a vote counting 1.5 votes, while everyone else's will count as 1 vote.

3. I cannot guarantee this will be a fun, balanced, non-swingy game as it is somewhat experimental, but I think it should be a blast! Feedback will be welcomed post-game :)

4. All neighbourhoods were randomized prior to role dispersal.

How would mass claiming neighborhoods help anything at this point?

a) town won't try and hide their hoods like it's their Special Thing and place way too much importance on them
b) hood reads exist and if we don't massclaim hoods there will be hugely stretching town/scum cases on people and the game will be extremely confusing.

but hey, your turn. how doesn't it help, and why is asking about it scummy?

Massclaim of hoods seems pointless today. Scum are already more "connected" than town and they will be for the game's duration. Aren't we just giving them a map.

We have a week-long day one. It's a reasonable amount of time for us to form not-reachy reads if we keep pace.

Quite a leap imo

not really. townish + scummish things happen in hoods. i got some reads on my partners pregame. what is going to happen is that in order to give those reads, you will either have to lie about your feelings on in-game statements/exaggerate/not be honest with your reads. that's a huge false positive.

I've never played with neighborhoods, so I don't have an informed opinion about them, but Writers Bloque is making more sense here to me.

MM, can you elaborate on this?

like
commonly it's easy to talk 1v1 with a person
generally, you will be able to gain a read based upon hood conversation (i have already done this)
but in order to back up your read you will be forced to give reasons that aren't your hood since your hood is *secret*
which will look dishonest and scummy because, well, it is

You're not wrong but it seems pointless to have these neighborhoods just to start with massclaiming them


I think there's a way to utilize the mechanics to town benefit. Just going with what seems instinctively "correct" right off the bat really isn't something that's appealing


Like, this is a question we have to answer at this second? I don't think so
