Definitely agree.Kdub wrote:I think a lot of the issues people are having with the game could have been remedied by a simple solution: this game really needed to be advertised as a bastard mod game (and not just because of the cult).

Game Name=Blackest Night Mafia
Flavor Text=Based on the DC Comics series, this game will reenact the War of the Lanterns. Each player will be able to choose which corps he wants to fight for, and each corps except for Orange will have two power roles and two vanilla townies. This game will have two scum factions and one serial killer.
Players=Pretty sure it will be 25.
Experience=Mini 1029 Mini 1071
Current Commitments= *None*
Back-up/Co-Mod=ReaperCharlie
Back-up Mod Experience=See wiki.
Back-up Mod Commitment=See wiki.
Reviewed=ReaperCharlie, of course, but nobody else.
That more than just the mod and back-up should have looked over the game. Take a look at the first post of the Large Theme Mod thread.ReaperCharlie wrote:...point being?
Those are two separate items.Kinetic wrote:Before requesting to start signups you need to do two things:
1. Get your game setup looked over and reviewed by someone who has experience in large theme game setups.
2. Find a qualified back-up or co-mod. (You cannot mod a large theme game on mafiascum without a co or back-up mod.)

I also didn't like how the question was brushed off rather rudely in the Dead QT, could have just answered the guy's question.
That would be true, HAD MODS NOT TOLD US PRE-GAME THAT THIS GAME CONSISTED OF 4 YELLOW SCUM, 4 RED SCUM, AND 1 ORANGE SCUM.ReaperCharlie wrote:Anyway, my point is: To say that you believed that there was no possibility of a Black Lantern Corps in the game is ridiculous, given your depth of flavor knowledge. And you would have joined anyway, admit it.

HOW THE FUCK IS THE PLAYERBASE SUPPOSE TO RANDOMLY DEDUCE THAT "OH, FLAVOR IS ABOUT BLACKEST NIGHT, THUS THERE MUST BE A BLACK CULT FACTION".

BUT YOU TOLD THEM ALL THE SCUM FACTIONS. If they had spent time at the beginning of the game speculating about who the scum were, they very well might have jumped to the conclusion of a cult. But they didn't, because you had already told them.
This. It didn't matter WHAT rules we had in play for who he could recruit. The only scum he tried to recruit was unrecruitable. Other than that, he always recruited town. Yeah, maybe an even- or odd- night only recruitment would have been better, but he would have almost definitely lost that way without Town even lynching any Black other than him, and him only at the very end. That doesn't seem like a very powerful anti-town faction.Andrius wrote:But he never recruited scum, Benmage.
