I'm of the opinion that a smaller format works better for newer players as far as the learning-experience goes. The two reasons I went with invites for the first run of this setup is because first of all, I'm using the first version of an automated tool to help streamline hosting, and it's better to test such things under a more controlled situation. Also, I'm trying to run a more balanced format where both the town and the mafia feel they have a fair chance to win, so that each player will play seriously and put their utmost effort to win (and not play simply for shits and giggles). Perhaps if the first game consists of better competitive play (relatively speaking), it could set and example and help pave the way for later games to be more competitive as well. I hope I don't seem too elitist for those reasons. Past game hosts have been invited, as well as a few players I personally observed as those who have played seriously in the past. In any case only about half of my invitees have accepted, so I'll need to draw from players who signed up as well. | ||

If you're looking for 9 players, you probably need to invite something like 16-17. Don't worry about being elitist. We need a high level game on here. It would be nice to have a recent example of high level play. There hasn't been a really high level showing from the mafia in particular in a LONG time. | ||

Nine people, down on their luck, moved to the outback to start a new life: at a new town which they named Micropolis. But somehow, word got around that a mafia syndicate also wanted to use the place as a base of operations, and two of their agents were among them. As all of them were strangers to each other, they viewed each other suspiciously. Soon enough, they would accuse each other of being agents and lynch one amongst themselves each day at dusk by majority vote. Would the town members be able to rid themselves of the mafia menace before they themselves were all eradicated? Roles have been randomized and sent! The first day will have a little more time. Day 1 ends at Thursday, 10pm EST! Remember - no out of thread communications, including PMs are permitted for players who aren't mafia! Follow the voting format specified in the opening post! Play seriously, play to win and have fun! ##start day## | ||

I voted for nemY for the "didn't have time to read the thread" comment. There were 3 one line posts in the thread at that point, give me a break :-) | ||

If people are going to be laxed this game I think we should vote off lurkers. More discussion helps the Town and if people don't talk then we'll lose. | ||
