However, "good" clues are non-obvious and confusing, not really helpful at catching reds. In the end this is still supposed to be a game of mafia, where information is generated primarily by the interaction between players, not the mod. I agree with this. The other impact of clues is that at the endgame you're going to have multiple clues pointing at the last couple mafia which can make it really tough for scum to pull out a close victory. Clues definitely help the town in the 'close' games. I also would not like to burden any mod with the onus of making fair and balanced clues. Take my opinion as you will - I'm not currently signed up to play. I don't want to have a thick multi-game overlap like I did for nearly a week between TMMM and HP. Caller's game doesn't seem to be in a hurry to start, though, so I may end up joining.
The endgame balance should ideally be handled through the rules and roles in any game. If clues were to introduce some imbalance you'd have to change something else. Not sure it's a huge issue... just saying.

I noticed. Is it still possible that I could play? I'm having second thoughts.

Me gusta los clues. No clues is fine too, though.

hey, is there a restriction on how many posts you have to have done before you can come into the tl mafia section? my friend wants to play so she just joined TL.net but she can't get in

You have to ask permission for access to the forum (at least I did - just a heads up it took a few days). There's a thread for requesting access.

damn I'm sorry but I'm going to have to back out. Something came up with work and I would be absent a number of days. Really wanted to play my first game but looks like I have to wait.

No clues. Clues just make town play poorly, at least early game. But then again, I'm not playing so...

o ya wrt clues, never played w/ them before, but then again I've only played live, so not sure how the txt ver will work out. TL Mafia vets would be more qualified to comment

I personally like clues. I think they add good discussion topics for people and can provide nice reads on people if you look at the early posts and compare them to activity later in the game. So I vote yes clues and cancel out your vote (because I am also not playing)!

Heh that might be bad for you right now. I have all manner of threats I can hold over Ver's head at this point.  Also, dreamflower says that if Ver says no, she would come in and say yes.
