Hmm that is odd. I remember added up to Titanic II.
Looking around at some other players, it does look like a ton of games are missing. Apparently the records are a lot older than they should be. Perhaps they got lost at one point when we moved things around. I do have a couple backup copies so I guess I'll try to restore them whenever I have the time to make the next set of updates.

Yeah there is a shitton of games missing. I have total of 21 games there, i have played ~35 or smth. 
I think this is the last game there is: Aperture Mafia 2: Episode 2

I usually don't read them at all till a point in the game where it calms down a bit if i'm somewhat enjoying the flavor. If not then I don't even read it.
If it's a themed game I will probably always read it though cause it's always fun ^_^ especially if the players can also have fun with it and roleplay the flavor etc. Otherwise it's not that important to me.
|
I don't really read them mostly because I don't find them very interesting at times :/
Like, either the flavor is about a TV show, or a film, or a fictional universe I don't know about, or it's some generic stuff about generic mafia stuff ("The Mad Hatter triggered the bomb on the sly Godfather" or whatever), or it's stuff that is just hard to understand lol (either Bluelightz kind of flavor, or just stuff with too much stuff in it that is hard to follow, like weird names and fictional stuff created for the game itself, or whatever).

Funny flavour is really nice to have, serious one isn't really necessary although it does animate people to roleplaying which can also be fun. See game of thrones mafia.

Like, I think I'd prefer it if there was a cohesive storyline in the flavor. Like, imagine a "hidden" mafia play, where you get to play it with the flavor? Like, imagine there are 11 players in the game, and 11 characters are introduced in the Day 1 flavor. There are 3 scum in the game, there are 3 scum in the "flavor" world. The deaths and actions in the flavor world follow the ones in the game, but you can still try to figure out the flavor world game! Like, you have the butler, the woodsman, the princess, and the burglar all in a room. There is 1 scum between them. Who is it? At the same time, you are at a 3v1 MYLO. What if there were subtle links between the "flavor world" and the real game? Like, what if the princess in the flavor world, sort of resembles a certain player in the game? Is the princess that player, and both are town? Or both scum? Or is it just a red herring?
Even if it has no "clues" about the actual game being played, having an engaging sidestory with the flavor would be fun. But...really engaging lol

Haha weird. I made this post before reading your post gonzaw. Get out of my head!

lol. You got in my head in the Shadow Game, now I must get into yours!
But yeah, the writing needs to be pretty good to make it a clue game. In UG there were plenty of clue games which....yeah kind of fell flat in that sense I think (although I don't remember them much, they happened before I joined there).
Why don't we just hire Damon Lindelof to write our flavor? "And the polar bear, was the scum, who traveled back in time to kill the cop, who had a white check on the veteran, who was actually dead"

Without flavor a game is not enjoyable.

I'm expecting exactly two votes on the last category.

On a side note, I'm thinking that "fallen victim" is the correct phrase grammatically, but English too hard.

After 12 months, I've finally come up with a discussion topic that is important enough to warrant bumping this thread.
When Personality Mafia was brought up in the recent podcast, it reminded me of marv's role:
You are Marvellosity, TL's finest erotic flavor text writer! Once per night, you may submit to the host a message that will be sent to target player. If it contains a piece of erotic flavor text, they will be so creeped out, that they won't leave their house at night and be roleblocked.
After Holyflare's strong performance in XXX, we have a challenger to this prestigious position. I have included excerpts below for you to decide who deserves the title more!

So, it had come to this. It turns out that whores aren't very good at finding and killing pimps, and really they should just stick to sex and bitching. Especially the sex. Hot steamy sex with each other too. Mmmmmm, sex, oh yeah baby. That's the way to do it. Right there. Anyway, I digress. Almost everyone in the Brothel de Liquidia, or at least the ones who could be arsed to get out of their skanky beds, had decided that Professor Chaos was the hidden pimp in their mist. Professor Chaos was desperately trying to convince all the whores that he was, in fact, one of them. "I put on my robe and wizard hat," he started. This didn't seem to have much of an effect. "I cast level 3 eroticism," he continued. Unfortunately, this seemed to only seal his fate. All the whores advanced on him with their whorish weapons. "I am not a pimp!" Professor Chaos screamed. "Palman del Gaga is! Do you know what I am saying?!" But they did not know what he was saying, and stabbed him in the face repeatedly. Dark, black blood seeped out of his eyes. From behind Fuerto Mano came a snigger. She turned around in shock, to find Fuba di Homo holding a gun to her head. "You foolish whores," he said. "You will always be under our control!" And with that, Fuba di Homo shot Fuerto Mano in an extremely pimpilicious fashion.

The important point to note is that we're both British.
