Speed Dating Mafia - Saturday Aug. 2nd, ?? pm
« on: July 28, 2014, 09:06:51 pm »

Speed Dating Mafia (aka Drunk Mafia; inebriation optional)  Saturday August 2nd ?? pm

Even online Dominion gets old after 1000 games in 31 days!  You decide it’s time to meet some “real” people, so you sign up for Speed Dating Mafia!  In this set-up, you are paired with another player and you must vote together.  Each day you have a new partner, and Daychat with that partner.  Starting Day 3 you have the option to choose your partner. 

-- Mafia cannot choose to be partners with each other. 
-- Days 1 and 2 partnerships are random, except that no partnerships will be repeated.  Mafia may or may not be paired with each other during one of those days.
-- Only one member of a pair has to make a request for it to be honored, but if the person you request requested someone else, they get their choice first.
-- If two people each choose each other, they become Lovers.
-- If you don’t choose a partner or your choice is not available and you haven’t been requested as a partner you will be assigned one from other people in that situation.  Mafia could end up paired together as a result of neither requesting/getting or being requested as a partner.  If there is an odd number of players, one person will not have a partner.  They will vote as normal.  No player will be the odd one out more than once, and this rule takes precedence over partnership requests.
-- Partnerships will be announced publicly at the END of each day, but they aren’t secret.  You may choose to reveal your partner sooner if you wish, and voting patterns may reveal your partner to those observing closely.
-- You can continue to use previous daychats (including at night).

Voting:
-- Voting happens in thread as usual, but your vote won’t count unless your partner votes the same way.
-- If there is no majority at deadline, the person with the most votes is lynched.  If there is a tie, the person who got that many votes first is lynched.
-- If there are no votes at deadline, a random town player is lynched.

Setup: There will be 1 or 2 mafia (actual number announced at start of game).  Everyone else will be town.  Mafia doesn't have nightkill unless a lot of people sign up.  If there are 2 mafia, they will have daychat.

Power Roles: After signups, for every 5 people in the game, town and mafia each get one power role.  Possible town PRs: doctor, cop, tracker.  Possible mafia roles: roleblocker, godfather, ninja.  Or I may pick some standardized game from mafiascum.net, depending on how many people sign up.

45 minute days, 10 minute nights.  Days and nights can be lengthened/shortened during the course of the game at the mod’s discretion or at the request of Town.

Theory people: If you see a flaw in the plan, tell me now!

Start time: I have literally no obligations all day Saturday, so can be flexible in start time.  These games are usually in the evening, but if enough Europeans and others want to play, we could make it an afternoon game, Forum time.  I do have a plane to catch the next morning, though, so whenever it starts I won't want to go much past midnight.  So sign up for the times you can do, and we'll see how it sorts out.

Signups:  No limit.  I'd say minimum of 5 (it might not be balanced, but I'm ok with that if you are)

If Afternoon (starting ~3 pm Saturday)
1.  ADK
2.  maybe jotheonah
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.

If Evening (starting ~7 pm Saturday)
1.  maybe Dsell
2.  ADK
3.  maybe mail-mi
4.  maybe chairs
5.
6.
7.
8.

Man. I had four strips of bacon yesterday. Was one automatically undercooked, one automatically overcooked? No, let's put a stop to that right here, all four strips were excellent.

Only after 1000 games or so, and you can pick it up again after your date.  Hey - you are objecting to the irl, but this is only "irl" and you are going to be doing irl-irl speed dating!

How long are you expecting games to go for? I could probably be online between 6pm and 8:30pm forum time, so if they're super quick games I could play 1 or 2.

Yeah, I don't know.  As it's set up, each day/night cycle could be up to 55 minutes, but they might speed up as we go along. The partner dynamic might make lynches faster.

I'd be fine with a 6 pm start.

I could only do Friday during the day - I'd have to stop by 6.  But I'm game if there is interest.

Flying to Amsterdam on Sunday!  If it doesn't work out this weekend, I'll run it some time more people can do it.  Or even if we do play this weekend, if it goes well we can play again another time.

I currently imagine mail-mi wearing a dark trenchcoat and a bowler hat, hunched over a bit, toothpick in his mouth, holding a gun in his pocket.  One bead of sweat trickling down his nose.

Funny story, I started dating a girl after hanging out with her at this wedding.  Sad story, this game never happened. 

Any interest for this weekend?  I would love to play, but need other people and a mod (EFHW? someone else?)

I've never played Forum Mafia before (played IRL though), but would be interested, next weekend (weekend of 16th) would be very good, could probably do this weekend too. Earlier time preferred, as I'm in Europe (UK).

In forum time, I can do Saturday from 5pm onwards, Sunday from 4pm onwards. Both days I'm also free before 11am forum time, but I don't think this will be a good time for many people.
