EccoRaven posted:Generally I try to keep alignment-changes some variation of: My only experience with alignment-changers has been the traditional set-up, which I loathe. Though I haven't' seen it implemented, I have always wanted to see a "Suicide Cult" style role converter, where targets retain their original alignment but die if the recruiter or an unaffiliated third party is killed. Of course, the town might be tempted to reveal the cult leader to remove the third party early on. I haven't figured out how to remove that risk.

Look Under The Rock posted:I'd be interested to see a mechanic based on petitioning gods, who would be players outside of the game with boons to grant and alignments/win conditions but no knowledge of who has which role and no ability to post within the thread. They can only influence the outcome of the game by privately granting boons that they are asked for publicly; for instance, one god might get to decide what the order of operations for night actions will be, one might grant a one-shot ability to beg a boon privately instead of needing to ask it in thread, one might give a token that empowers or complicates existing role abilities. Something similar was done in Chili's Hunger Games Mafia. The game began with vanilla players but spectators could grant roles and abilities to players by donating to charity. The game played out very nicely and it raised a good amount of money.

A question: How much of a time commitment is it to run a game? If a moderator has already assembled relevant role flavor, flip templates, and other relevant documents, it shouldn't take much time, right? A second question: If/when I find the time to run a game (and I would like to run a standard game before this even), I would like to mod a game of Mutually Assured Destruction. I've been thinking about it for sometime. Though I have a rough set-up in an Excel document that I would rather not share, the basic details would be as follows: - Sixteen (16) player game; - All players have at least one dayvig; - All dayvigs are processed on a time delay of twenty-four hours, during which time the deadline is pushed back and the game continues normally, giving players the opportunity to retaliate; - There is a hidden ceiling on how many dayvigs can be used during the game. If this number is surpassed, the game enters "nuclear winter" in which all players lose; - Possibly some sort of ceiling on how many vigs a single player can use at a time. Without some sort of restriction, I foresee a scum player punching the big red button the moment he realizes he is about to be lynched. Is there any interest for such a game?
