Next time I'm running the setup I'm planning to put 4 players in each cell, with mafia having a forced night kill before every cell goes up for lynch. Should increase town numbers without being a onesided buff and allow for more strategy.

Thanks for hosting the game.

I think it is a very interesting setup, but I guess it had the side effect of being unable to punish inactives / lurkers, leading to the game grinding to a halt past the first two cycles.

Last game had the same problem. Something is wrong with this setup.

Maybe if you could vote for which cell goes up next every day, mayor picks first cell?

Like there is some not-obvious problem with the setup that makes the games just sort of flush out really fast.

I would suggest just randomizing the order and skipping mayor day next, get people scumhunting straight away.

What if the mayor determined the next cell to vote on each day? (if no choice is given, RNG)
I haven't played this setup so I'm not sure about broader strategy implications.

Like in a normal mafia game, people give up on the game usually about 3 cycles in, or activity drops significantly by then. So maybe the trick is not to "waste" an active cycle on the mayor stuff.

The problem I have with that is that it puts too many things up to chance outside of players' control. I like having a game in which the players decide the outcome as much as possible. Unfortunately that can't count for inactivity and all that, but it feels like something that increases the potential skill ceiling to me.

town that was shit.

how you let poofter get away with that is a fucking mystery. awful.


Coasting off teh day 1 town read marv... just coasting.

Coasting off complete lack of effort by VE.

Mafia wins when townies refuse to fight for not getting lynched. It's a true story.

what did poof do for the last 2 cycles straight other than post about 3 times at deadline???

Nothing, I even pointed it out.

But I always do this. I expect poofter to be shit and I expect VE to not be shit.



I have to change my mafia meta because basically if I'm afk for like a whole day i'm instantly mafia as town I just don't do that.

that's why you have a vote

I post mostly from work and I was off the past 4 days so I was doing other things like with family and such. If I'm town I usually just find time to post either right before bed or get up a bit early or something but as mafia I value sleep more. Its bad and sorry its not an honorable victory

Yeah it does, it's a cool mechanic, but sometimes cool mechanics get in the way of the game.

maybe RNG the first cell and the 3 people in that all nominate a next cell to go up, the person who gets the least votes ends up deciding the next cell?

Don't listen to layabout poofter. It's on town for not punishing your play.
