I had a publicly-posted resolution order for night actions. I would recommend the same...

Is it really that complicated, though? It looks complicated, but you just have to resolve Paranoid first, then see which players are being killed/protected, right?

I just know that when I ran it there were a lot a lot a lot of questions for me. Of course, that was the early Wild West days of forum mafia and some of those questions have obvious established answers now (like no, Robz, you can't link out to a Google Sheet :P)

Is it really appropriate to me making a COVID-19 themed game whilst we're still in the pandemic and over 700,000 people have died from it? To me this seems just as insensitive as using the word lynch in these games

Yes I am because it's insensitive (see my posts on that thread). But I don't see how this isn't insensitive too

This is a hard one. The problem with lynch was that it excluded people and represented terrorist actions against a whole group of people based solely on skin color. This seems different, but there is still a lot of emotional pain involved. If anyone feels like their experiences are being trivialized, then I agree it is a problem. I think of mafia as a way to deal with dark things, but maybe I am insulated enough from the virus so far that I don't understand how others might be feeling.

Here's how I look at it: In the midst of hardship, one of the best things I think we can do is find the humor within it. It is no joke that over 700,000 people have died, but it is funny how everyone freaked out and emptied the stores of toilet paper. So I think having a mafia game themed after it is just harmless fun. After all, mafia itself is themed after real-life mafias that have murdered plenty of people and committed many crimes, and yet we still play with the theme of mafia for fun.

i feel like this is a current event, whose legacy hasn't been yet settled

what's okay and what's too insensitive, we don't know yet; this stuff gets decided by trial and error. and now is the best time to explore it. so yea i think we should go forward with this, but keep an eye out to see if any problems arise. and be willing to listen if they do.

I think it could easily be called quarantine mafia of the specific reference is offensive to the players or the community.

I don’t think either yams or I intend to make jokes at anyone’s expense or make light of suffering that would render the game offensive.

But for sure scum has a toilet paper hoarder.

With marvel mafia over, there are currently no games running on this site. That is just wrong.

This game will start later today, unless there are any objections.

In the interest of the above, I have decided to rename the game to "Quarantine" mafia, in order to be a little more sensitive to those that have lost loved ones to the COVID-19 virus.
