Retiring from LSG's and Mish Mash, for the most part. If you want to contact me, I suggest going outside and enjoying what the world has to offer, instead.
surely we could just tell people "pming is rly important, esp in first few hours etc. also idols are hidden in these types of places and you can expect these types of challenges" w/out going to convoluted teaching mechanics. i mean, what could a "coach" do that a guide or reading past games could not. apart from things that we don't want like controlling someone's strategy or allying w/ other coaches.
other problem is to run a game like that we'd need like 16-18 newbies which like...has never happened and has shown no indication that it ever will happen.
Honestly, I think the practice of hiding idols within the actual forum pages (through secret links and the like) should be done away with. It gives veterans such an unfair advantage, since combing every character of every page is the very first thing they do, right? A vet is basically guaranteed an idol within the first couple days (at the latest) of the game.
I really liked how the idols were hidden in One World (aka through covered items/items that weren't what they actually were + some task to follow).
Is it possible for game mods to release PM made by players during game?
I have been garbage-dumping confessional and I see a lot of moment where the only reason why they decided to boot someone is because "I don't like it," which implies there is an implicit meta of a good PM technique than just "keep replying and try to make it full of meat instead of one liner".
The reason I asked for this is in Ned's school, there is a thread that gives us a list of password and I have been accessing people's account. Some have changed their password and some didn't and seeing other's people PM gives me a more clearer picture of demanded "PM dynamic".
I think from Ned's school--the most helpful account is McMenno's Spongebob account who one of the biggest reason he got sacked is because he happened to be rubbing people the wrong way and now it makes more senses why I get voted out quickly and why my attempt to make social connection flat down in Abridged.
"The debate on whether short multi postings or a long wall of post is good or not is like a debate on gun control--we would never understand each other and we have to make peace with it." -Realeo
The game mods don't have access to the players PMs, unless they change the passwords back to what they were made originally.
Also you should probably ask the people concerned before you access their accounts.
Holder of the Longest Continuous Weekly Mafiascum Post Record. 1 July 2012 - 16 Feb 2023
*It may be held by someone else if you discount the major downtime in 2012 and 2014, I'm not doing the research.
Yeah I remember there was discussion re this post game in the game that you're talking about Realeo, and some people specifically said they wouldn't want their PMs read.
Personally I'm all good to have mine read, and if anyone wants any of my passwords they can PM me, but just saying.
I tried to post all my conversations in magic kingdom and in civilization in my confessional (may be somewhat incomplete though) and really I'm happy to give out account info to any games of mine and explain my votes more in depth (assuming I remember the instances) if you just let me know what.
