VA, in the past you were super against lying as either alignment. I know I haven't really seen you play mafia, but was that a legit feeling before or are you happy to lie as mafia? | ||

Was that untrue, or was hinting okay and not lying? | ||

Real sorry all for my late play, I kept getting tied up IRL and just played really poorly after being super duper townie. The Foolishness lynch was bad, but worse was the day after and the no-lynch. I actually had about 2/3 of a post while out of town written on my phone, but it died as I was still typing it up. Never got to say anything final, although I think it was mostly anti-gumshoe and anti-marv. | ||

I get that they can often be useless or clutter things up, or mafia can do whatever they want with dinky questions, but there are times where I feel that either (a) someone can be prodded to participate more/at all with easy questions or fun questions, as a means of getting them into the game and playing; or (b) there just needs to be a base of STUFF to get people going, and questions/answers can provide the base, even if it's all dumb. I've been trying lots more little questions lately, and i THINK it's been helping me personally, and i THINK it's been good for at least some other players in terms of finding someone not motivated to participate and drawing them in, but I'm not 100% on that so I'm kinda interested in this. I assume it's not quite as black/white as only asking questions to entrap/get something very specific that might be alignment-determinative. | ||

Yeah, it forces people to save posts. That's fine. I don't THINK i did a great job with posting giant walls to try and get normal amounts of text into less posts, i COULD have consolidate much much more. But everyone signed up for a game that said "THERE'S A POST RESTRICTION YA DING DONGS" and we got exactly what we signed up for. The only thing missing was using...post counts and post donations in analysis? People who used posts freely, started saving towards end, were willing to donate when needed, were all town I think? Some of that may just be that we had a very lurky/inactive scumteam for most of the time bar poofter, but I think that if we played more games with restrictions we'd see that there are some plusses, it's not just "haha you can't post any more." DEFINITELY made the game easier to follow and read. | ||
