i think that even if hiv is "cured" i.e. it doesnt attack the person due to it being reduced, the person is still infectious buhahahahahah

also if you are infected are you notified?

Ace: i still see that traitor is too powerfull, its just like godfather.

malongo: how? The traitor is not within the mafia, he is a TOWN TRAITOR.
|
a) town traitor wins if mafia wins no? so he is sided with the mafia like godfather b) he is undetectable like godfather c) he knows mafia what is their difference??

I love the idea of a traitor, and I use it a lot in RL mafia games. However, I do agree that it is too overpowered solely because he knows who the mafia are. It's not too hard to figure them out (or get in contact with one who is) but at least it wouldn't be a gimme.
And can we start the election process now? Or will you make a post? My Energy is Surging through the roof.

Yeah, can't the traitor just send a PM to everyone of the mafia, since he knows their identity ad claim he's the traitor? I guess mafia could be nasty and decide to kill him off since they win even if he's dead. Though, it would be more wise to focus on killing off the detectives, paramedics, etc.
|
he cant kill. I think you should realize that tl.net has enough smart people that they'll be able to detect someone as a traitor within due time.
Also the Traitor has no clues pointing to him. This coupled with his innocence makes him pretty a non-killing mafia with the ability to save other mafia. If a GOOD player can use this role well it makes for a good game. Not overpowered.

Of course he can. In fact I expect him to do that. But with 2 mafia families in the game how can that really do too much damage?
@ver: 82 people is a lot of messaging to do

Is the signing up over? If not sign me up
|
WHERES MY MESSAGE! AHHH i'm so anxious for my rolezor.
|
well i guess theres more sense about the traitor with 2 mafia families. when i wrote about overpower i was just thinking about that with only one family it would be like 2 godfathers. Anyways when does the blood start?

Oh, you are giving out roles before the election? I thought it was after, my bad. In that case, take your time, it sure must be annoying to do.
As for the traitor, I dunno, I think it'd be cool if townies would have a chance to impersonate the traitor; but this is of course impossible if the traitor knows all the mafia. I love the role concept, but I just dislike the issue of a freebie (and lack of impersonation) in a game that's designed around analyzation with little information. If you've already made the final decision, then no wories, but if not yet, just looking to help improve .

sorry for the newb questions, but i wanted to be sure: the two families are opposing factions right? what powers do the elders have? thanks
|
Yes,
And the elder's power is that he can pm ace for an extra vote. When he does the list there will be something like
Randombum (My normal vote) Elder (if I used my powers.)
If I had elder powers that is.
Still waiting on my role here ace. ahhh c'mon. Ill keeping f5ing here.

I don't know what Ace's rules are, but in Chuiu's games (and perhaps standard across all Mafia games?) Elders had two votes instead of one, one which they cast where everyone else does so and the other they PM to the game moderator (Ace in this case). I believe they can be either the same person they voted for already or a different person entirely.
|
Hmmm well I'm excited for this game. I've played with Ace, played in games he's modded, and modded games he's played in. He speaks (types) highly of the playing ability of some TL posters.
This should be good.
