Micro 814: Geriatric Trio (Mafia Victory!!!)

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Thu Jul 12, 2018 2:35 pm

Post by Aristophanes »

This post is like, official and stuff, I swear. :shifty:

Sorry about the delay!


Thanks for joining this Test Run everyone!
I think this setup looks neat, so I'm going to see if I gan get it out of "untested" territory so it can be run more often!
I thing the Geriatric Ruleset will help a lot in this and make for a really fun game! :)

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 48 hours of inactivity. If you do not respond to a prod after 24 hours, I will start searching for a replacement. If you are prodded 3 times within the game, I will prod you after each 24 hours of inactivity, with no grace periods, and replace as necessary.

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 14 day deadlines until the start of day 3. From then there will be 10 day deadlines. If a majority is reached early, the hammer will fall and that person will be lynched. If no lynch is secured by deadline, a No Lynch will occur.

2. Night phases will last 48 hours 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 Semi-Open Setup, so I reserve the right to refuse answering any of your questions, but will try to be as helpful as I can be :)

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!


Game Specific/Geriatric Rules:

Spoiler:
1. This is a Modern Trio setup, so be aware of all possible setups!

2. Every player is allowed a maximum of 10 posts in a 24 hour period. In the 24 hour period immediately preceding a deadline, players are allowed a maximum of 15 posts.

3. 24 Hour Periods start when the say starts. If, for example, D2 opens at 11pm EST, the posting period also starts at this time.

4. Every player starts with a reserve of 20 additional posts. Any posts above the daily limit are subtracted from this reserve.

5. Players who deplete their reserve will receive a warning. Any further infractions after that will incur mod punishment.

6. If a player has hit the daily limit and depleted their reserve, they are allowed one naked vote change per in-game Day.

I echo MoI's reservations with this post. There's a strange dissonance for me between the two statements. He's suggesting to the Mod that a PM would help, yet his only contribution to the game is "checking in". Presumably, he'd have something more to offer us.

RVS is boring and largely unhelpful to me. Ss sometimes I participate, sometimes I don't.

What's interesting is wanting my head when there were actually only 5 in game posts before mine (not including Mod posts) and apparently I'm supposed to have "more to offer", really? Wagon for reaction is one thing, but the rationale is that my lack of RVS makes me more likely to be scum is reaching.

That being said MagnaofIllusion is better than that, even the explanation of thought (explaining that typically they'd say different) rubs me the wrong way - like simply voting me was too risky for them?

MusicBox and Invisibility seem like wagoning to get the game started which indeed is very towny and I have no qualms with - they didn't try to mask it with some weak explanation.

RedCoyote, though... remarks that they agree with MoI's reservation and is the one that asserts I should have more to offer 5 posts in- lol - then votes Invisibility? If you agree with MoI, who's to say Invisibility didn't as well? Or again could have been wagoning like they suggested? In which case, a reaction test or early wagon tends to be easier to manipulate if people know that's why you're doing it.

VOTE: RedCoyote

That's an actual vote, if that wasn't clear.

Now that you mention it, something about that post from Oath does feel kind of off, but I can't put my finger on it right now, maybe I'll think about it more later. However, why is the lack of an RVS vote scummy? Why would scum!Oath, as opposed to town!Oath, not include an RVS vote in that post?

At the time you made this post, what did you think the rationale behind these votes was? What do you think now?

I also like Oath's thoughts on that post from RedCoyote and I'm interested in RC's response.

Why not both?

RE:Oath: His wagon's justified, Music Box and Invisibility should be commended for helping it unfold. Meanwhile, I find Coyote's reaction really weird. Instead of pushing the wagon forwards, in hopes of getting a strong reaction- especially that he agrees with the reasoning- he's voting Invisibility?

In post 18, RedCoyote wrote: It's strange that you just acted in unison with him. Explain to me why that isn't a coincidence


This part seems really weird to me. It's the first wagon of the game and you're immediately suggesting they're partners? Do you know something we don't?

In post 20, Invisibility wrote:Wagons are nice in RVS
This x1000

Good reasoning on Oath's part.
In post 23, Komala wrote: Why would scum!Oath, as opposed to town!Oath, not include an RVS vote in that post?


Honestly, not utilizing your vote isn't pro-town at all but is it scummy? The only reason I can think of would be scum are less dependant on voting and can find it pointless when there's lack of good chances to hop on a promising wagon. But that would be very far-fetched, considering how Oath acted.

Coyote's the right place to park your votes for now, ladies and gents.
