Kicking around a setup, tell me how you feel about this and maybe I'll run it: 21 people total 2 scum teams of 3 each, remainder town - Fire and Ice rules are in effect (each team has a kill, if they both pick the same target the kill fizzles) Each scum team is headed by a captain who picks two other players; those players do not know who picked them A player can be picked for both scum teams, and if on both teams has both wincons At the start of every day a random player is given a gun to use during that day; if they don't use it, they get some kind of boon (it's a secret, boons may be different for scum vs. town, boons may be one-shot or permanent) No night actions other than NKs and the boon actions, if that player gets a boon death cob for cutie fucked around with this message at 21:55 on Jul 20, 2020 |

(originally it was just going to be one gun/boon on D1 but I thought with zero actual power roles it might drag out a bit)

as we approach page 2,000, have we given any thought to starting up a new General Mafia Thread? I was thinking we could do a new/updated OP, maybe with a section on Basic Mafia Tactics, I could buy a banner ad, maybe we could get some fresh blood pumping through this aging horse?

my own personal mafia tips (I'm not the greatest at mafia but w/e): - pay attention to the setup. if it's an open setup, there's no point in speculating about setup, because it's known. if it's closed, try to limit your speculation to reasonable ideas based on information present in the game and focus on the game. what-ifs are interesting, and potentially informative, but thoughts like "what if there's a serial killer who can only kill people at night who have an odd number of posts" or "what if there's a second cult" aren't going to go anywhere (yes I realize this is ironic for me to say) - related to the above, mafia is primarily a game of social deduction - the best clues come from other people's posts. night actions can be useful, but without participation in the day, nothing useful happens. even if you don't think of yourself as a Good Player, asking questions can help get your teammates in the right mindframe, even if your questions don't directly lead to answers - also related to the above, IMO nobody's really good at mafia. to elaborate: mafia is a team game and it's difficult for one person to be the decider of the fate of the game. don't be cowed by playing with someone who has one thousand games under their belt; experience is useful, they may be a little more skilled in asking the right questions or reading between the lines in posts, but don't let them intimidate you. more critically, don't let someone tell you you're Bad At Mafia. the person crowing about how you're obviously scum may be right this game, but they've been dead wrong in their last five, so gently caress 'em - you win the game with your team even if you, personally, are dead. particularly as vanilla town, if you eat a kill that could be meant for the town doctor because you were asking the right questions, you're doing good! do not fear death, fear only a lack of posts - Just Post. everyone has their own unique posting art, and especially for your first few games you might feel like you need to purposefully Post in a Special Way. just do what comes naturally! - day 1 has a reputation of being a dumb shitshow, but it's absolutely possible to hit scum day 1! once jokephase settles, don't feel like day 1 has to be a random or lurker lunch. express an opinion and build a case, even if it's thin. the worst thing that can happen is that your assumptions are proven wrong, which is data in its own right. - likable players live longer! you don't want to be a suckup, usually, but you definitely don't want to be a shithead. being insufferable greatly increases your chances of being removed from the game early because you're being a jackass, and no amount of claiming a PR will save you scum tips: - as scum, communicating with your teammates takes balance. too much coordination in your posting, and you may start inadvertently giving yourself away. too little, and swaying the rest of the town to your desires is a challenge. as a newbie, you definitely want to listen to your buddies and take their advice, but don't be afraid to have your own opinions and don't feel like they need to clear your posts or w/e - scum who post more are more likely to be successful IME. a frequent assumption is that scum are low-effort posters, or that scum are evenly distributed among the range of posts (i.e. there's one scum player who's topping the postcount, one who's lurking, and one in the middle) - if your scumteam is posting up a storm, you break this assumption! - bussing a teammate is a useful strategy from time to time, but don't feel like you need to immediately dogpile your scumbuds the minute they catch some heat. in most cases, one of your teammates dying means you have to survive yet another day to win - but if you can rack up a lot of cred by killing a partner and reduce suspicion, survival may be much easier

Retro Futurist posted:I mean that’s all well and good but it implies there are right and wrong ways to play mafia and I don’t think that’s accurate it's definitely a your mileage may vary situation, these are kind of just my personal guidelines generalized out t a s t e posted:My only real game piece of advice is that the game isn’t about being right as much as it is knowing how to talk to, and in some cases talk through, others. Try as much as possible to shape the narrative you think you need, whether that’s posting a lot, posting at the right time, emotionally, logically etc. this is definitely the good poo poo

to expand my thoughts a bit: it's okay if two people's bits of advice contradict each other, as that establishes that there's not One True Path, I just wanna try to give some new players some kind of foothold/structure to start with
