Current list of gamers is at the bottom of post #1.
Without 60 players, I will execute the three family version.
Some rules changes will be made. These will be posted prior to you receiving your roles. Sasaki, a version of your suggested change will be included.
Roles will be PM'd and will include instructions to clarify issues raised by some of the questions or reflect some changes being made as I refine the gameplay components.
Thanks.
Seamus, I would suggest getting permission from EB highups to advertise in their forums. EB has a pretty large niche group that usually only looks there (in fact, I browsed EB forums without registering for nearly an year, and even after registering, it was about 3 months before I explored the Org.
You might be able to grab 10 people if lucky...
Hah, I can't wait for this one to start.
This looks like it'll be a good game, but I just hope everyone participates or atleast most everyone.
add me .
Meh I'll join up for this one, seems like half the backroom has done it already. This one will probably end up very, very chaotic though.
I assume that if the Luca dies, the Don can choose a new Luca from the Mades? And that the Don can recruit if he's alone? Just checking some rules.
Mades can inifiltrate other families right? While pretending to be a wise guy/gal?
One murdervote/player? Aka a wise guy/gal can't do a a kill with a townmob while preforming a hit for one or multiple families?
I'm pretty good at keeping records in these games, so I think I should have a handle on it, but aside from me....yeah, I think it will be an essay in ambiguity and tension. Since I was hoping for that...:wiseguy:Quote:

Of course! We haven't even started and you are already into the spirit of things nicely!Quote:

Remember to check the revised rules before play. Any other suggestions? Before starting will help far more than later.
me In! Me In!
Mwhahah I will prove to you all that im just a townie, thats pretending to be the mafia :laugh4::sweatdrop:
I'll play too
I haven't participated in one for some time. I will join this one.
Continuing questions here. Some with more obvious answers, some with less.
Detectives and doctors are permanent townies (wins with a town victory) that cannot murder someone?
So we don't get 3 townies and and doctor killing someone. And then ends up as a wise guy/gal doctor ~;p .Quote:
Acts as a Townie in other respects
Can doctors/surgeons save multiple kills on the same person? If they can, how do you take out two (or more) that votes for eachother? I assume that the Luca can save multiple kills on the Don?
3 townies and a wise guy/gal becomes a kill or?
3 townies and a Made becomes a kill or?
1 townie (faking as a Wise guy/gal) and a Made fails or?
2 townies and a wise guy/gal turning to the "light side of the force" make a save or?
Wise guy/gal that have murdered can turn to the "light side of the force" and become a townie?
If they can, then townies that have killed thier way to wise guy/gal can or cannot go back to townie status?
Wise guy/gal that goes townie shifts status to "innocent" from "criminal" if turning to the "light side of the force"? Do they go to townie by denouncing thier status to you, or only by becoming doctors?
Townies with one kill does still win a townie victory? Criminal (not guilty) wise guys/gals wins a town victory?
Mades loyalties? Can a Made that have infiltrated into another mafia and that's been made into a Made there, win with the new family or is he always an infiltrator?
Jeepers, I thought I was confused when I read through the rules but now I'm completely bewildered.
:huh:
Oh, don't you worry. I'll help you out. When in doubt you can send your decisions to me first, and we'll review them together.Quote:

A player's role may be changed by their actions, but they cannot have the powers/advantages of both. A townie who has not become another role, or a wise guy who has not ACTED criminally would still count as a "townie" for final victory purposes, they may be tainted, but such is life -- and life is not perfect.:evilgrin:Quote:

b = Yes. Same as a.
c = Yes, this killing attempt would fail.
d = Yes. But only if the Wise Guy had not previously performed a killing.
Killing is a definite path-chooser as allowing a player to play both ends against the middle is unfair for gaming purposes (though you are free to try to convince anybody of anything). So:Quote:

2 = Townies cannot go back either.
3 = Announcing your sought-after status is the wise course (helps me interpret you accurately). They will still register as "criminal" or "unclear" to a made's investigation or as a "criminal" for the detective -- but this is true of a small number of townies anyway.
As long as the new family accepts you, it works for me. Mind you, since dead Dons are part of the other families victory conditions, you may end up getting denounced unless you're very careful. But what is life without risk?Quote:

Can I still join. It has been too long I've played.
Seems I've started a trend. :D
I am getting quite giddy with excitement.
