I just thought it would be a good idea to have this OOC thread so that dead people (including me) do not pollute the main thread. * * * Rafzakael, on some board (Paradoxplaza OT) they play a "Werewolves" game that is pretty similar to your Mafia game, but I like the concept more. Are you familiar with the rules? Edited by Paradise, Nov 20 2008, 09:26 PM.

How are the rules different? |

Essentially, Mafiates = Werewolves and Townies = Townies. Other than that, the roles must be slightly different. |

Werewolf is the same thing, with differently-named roles. There's a Vampire variant, too. I was thinking of playing a werewolf-themed game next time. |

It might be good to note some strategy regarding the current vote count. Generally, the number of mafiates in a game is 1/4 the total number of players. With NH gone, that means there are likely to be 2 mafiates left. A common scum tactic is to wait for some townie to get into the "danger zone," with two or fewer votes to lynch (with 2 mafiates up), and then quickly drive the nail into his coffin. Therefore, it is wise to keep any player's vote count below the danger zone unless you're relatively sure of his scumminess. This is why rapid bandwagonning is seen as scummy.

Not necessarily, I have altered the circumstances slightly, because we have a lot of first-time players, and because we had an extra player. But on average, in a 12-player game, there will be three mafiates.

But we could possibly have 4? In which case we should be even more careful with lynching? |

It is entirely possible, yes. You have 5 days, use them. More discussion is better than less 99% of the time. |

So in summary this was Huesca's attempt at survival... Huesca: Lynch me! I'm evil! I'm Evil! Everybody: But we hate paradise now... Huesaca: :sad: But I want you to lynch me! I'm suspicious! *Paradise is lynched* Huesca: No! Mememememememememe! Lynch me! Everybody: Okay, if it'll shut you up. *Everybody gets the lynchmob together and chases Huesca* Huesca: Why did my plan backfire? It was foolproof! :sad: |

I must say, your speech was rather moving. If I'd logged on in time, I think I would have unvoted you. |

I have to say I quite expected to be dead by morning. I was a little too lucky with my guess early on. |
