SPYFALL Sign Ups & General Discussion

S P Y F A L L

THE AGE OF SPIES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


Image


NB:
the below flavour is just there because I love the sound of my own voice!
This is a standalone & easy-to-learn game, and there are no requirements to play. :]
If you are confused please scroll down to "So what is Spyfall?"


--------------------------------------------------------------------------


Citizens of the Mish Mash, I have a question to ask you this evening.

What is this crazy world coming to?


Last week, a crypt was vandalised by an alleged KGB agent. An agency which disbanded 27 years ago.

And then this week!

Two CIA defectors are arrested in a bank.
A bank robber is appointed as a senior security officer.
On the other side of town, a seemingly harmless office building is bombed.
A corporate party resulted in 120 businesspeople inexplicably losing their memories.
Baroness Elizabeth Judith Pennywhistle III has been institutionalised for insisting a block of solid gold helped her save the world.

What madness could possibly be next?!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------



So what is Spyfall?
Adapted for MafiaScum by & stolen from Beefster


Spoiler: THE BASICS
Spyfall is a social hidden-role game. One player is secretly the spy, with all the other players having a location and a role that is relevant to the location. Players take turns asking questions to each other, trying to figure out who the spy is without revealing the location. Meanwhile, the spy is trying to figure out the location without seeming like they do not know where they are.

Spoiler: GAMEPLAY
At all times, it will be some player's turn to ask a question to another player. You should address the player with an @player and bold the question with it. When you respond to a question, you should quote the question and then answer it after the quote. After the question has been answered, it is your turn to ask a question. You may address a question to anyone other than the player who addressed you.

At any time, players can cast votes using [ vote ] tags, indicating that they think the voted player is the spy. If at any point 6/8 players have voted a player, the game ends. If the player chosen by the vote is the spy, then the town wins. Otherwise, the spy wins.

At any time, the spy can declare that they are the spy and has one guess at the location. If they are correct (reasonably speaking), then the spy wins. Otherwise the town wins.

If any moderator deadline is set and then reached, and neither of these conditions has been met, the spy has one shot to guess the location. If they guess correctly, the spy wins. Otherwise the town wins. The spy will have 24 hours to make their guess.

Unlike the face-to-face version, you will be able to talk freely about your suspicions, HOWEVER, you may not ask questions freely. Be cautious with this as it may reveal the location or your identity as the spy.

Please, no encrypted text. If you take longer than 24 hours to respond to a question addressed to you, you will be prodded.

Spoiler: SAMPLE PLAY
Suppose it is Alice's turn to ask a question and the location is the zoo.

I don't really work. I sit around all day by myself.

Typically a game will go longer than this, but hopefully that gives you an idea of how this should work.

@spyfall enthusiasts

how would ppl feel about running a game with a more limited location list?
e.g. more like the traditional spyfall--grab 20 random locations to list in the opening post. then from that 20, roll one location which is THE ONE.

thoughts?

That's what I'm feeling too. I had a good player not in one of the games trying to PoE one of the locations by PM for funsies. His logic was basically perfect but it was his "#3" option. :(

By "full game", do you mean the full location list? We will be running a trial game with ~20 for game #6, which is more in line with the balance of the irl game.

I'm not sure if this is true... in the irl game, the spy can't go back and look at every single question and answer. That's hugely powerful.

I might be wrong, but I'm predicting that this game will end in a fairly resounding spy victory.
Fair point. I think my issue is currently, unless the spy is a master of PoE it is an extremely boring solving process. Town are also kinda going through the motions fmpov since there's generally not much to gain by giving vague/cheeky answers.

So... My feeling is currently it's townsided, and potentially risks being boring.
I see your point that 1/20 may be scumsided.

Do you have any thoughts on how we could achieve a better balance?

I think it's an interesting idea, even if just for a trial. I think SS is probably right. It's just a difficult balancing act adapting it for a forum environment while avoiding the risk of it being boring. >:

I for one will randomise the list in our opening post here and use the first 20 in the list. :)

Actually pretty keen to see what SS thinks.

In post 78, BuJaber wrote:We can try it first.

Also we might try keeping everything the same and if spy guesses game ends as usual but uf they are wrong they can 1 extra time.
This would probably even allow adding locations lol, and I figure this way if town work harder to be vague the spy won't have an easy time even with 2 guesses. Especially that they have to be 2 guesses in a row with no additional info in between.

We have to test either way.

How many locations are there currently? I'm curious how we landed on "20" locations as the compromise. How much smaller is that?
I'll do some maths tonight if I remember. Maybe 1/7 or something?

I'd be pretty interested in trialling something like what RC suggested postgame in Game #6.

Basically rarher than use a prescribed location list (which is probably scumsided when small and very boring when large)--the spy would be given a clue about the location (e.g. it is 7 letters long). It may be or may not be on the prescribed location list.

This very much changes the nature of the spy's game from PoE and deduction to creative thinking and critical analysis of town's posts.


Thoughts ppl? If half+ the player list are willing to give it a go we'll try it. Sorry for all the chaos the last few games. I'm pretty keen on finding a workable balanced and fun format for forum play that doesn't get old too quickly.

historically I'm inclined to give 1-2 weeks for a game on average tbh
if we work on 1-2 answers a day, 7 days is looking pretty grim

ok I'm a really bad person
basically I need to string together a decent hour+ at a PC to get a post and some updated rules together but my conceeerrrrnnnnn

the spy role is difficult to adapt to a forum environment
if we play with the full location list it turns into a game of "how much time can I be bothered spending on PoE" and if we use a shorter list it's a tricky balancing act stopping it from becoming too easy. (irl there's more of an air of subtlety; for some reason the forum environment tends to lend to people unintentionally trying to clear themselves via giving slightly too obvious responses)

at this point it's basically rand whether you ask the spy a question early and whether they can answer it vaguely but satisfactorily enough--if they do they can pretty well coast for a bit and spend a lot of time on PoE for the locations.

so my suggestions are basically: a shorter list of locations but ones that have more in common than the standard location sets (e.g. aquarium, beach, harbour, etc., etc.) or -- what's occurring to me today in particular -- we try this as a marathon format and see if that has any legs. :3

would anyone be keen to try and line up a marathon spyfall in the upcoming 24th-27th marathon weekend? or do I need to just be bold and put together a set of locations and see how it goes
