Well, the town wised up and lynched the VERY SCUMMY mafia roleblocker (although roleblocker was irrelevant after they lynched dsell). Tomorrow night will be the end.

We're doing this at school.

How many people do you have playing? Have you found anything in particular that works in the forum but doesn't work irl?

I haven't even started yet. Day 1 of UCAS Mafia 1 starts tomorrow.

Lucky! I'd kill for this to happen at my school. And kill for it more if I were Mafia!

Our current game will definitely end tomorrow night, and I'm gonna push for a second game to start up immediately. Hopefully the 7 people involved will be up for that. If not, we'll probably have to wait until January to play another game, but I think we can get at least 12 to play at that point. I'm really enjoying it (and loving how modding a game feels a bit like playing god), so I really hope we can make it into a big-ish thing next semester.

Also we were VERY CLOSE to no-lynch on day 1. Someone threw the hammer in the last 15 seconds to avoid no-lynch and has been beating himself up for it all day.

I thought I had an ace in the hole, I was even trying to play a little scummy on day 1. A good forum mafia tactic, but alas.

I'm still trying to figure out HOW they didn't change their minds about killing you after you claimed Doctor and NO ONE WAS COUNTER-CLAIMING. That should have been a clear sign that they needed to take a step back buuuuuuuut apparently not.

Should players be allowed to show each other texts and other private communications? I tend to think not, but it's a sort of weird situation that there's not a specific rule for in this game.

My inclination is to allow it, and then revisit whether that's something we want to be allowed for the next game.

On the grounds that it's gossip between neighbors, and that it's feasible that someone could forge a text message from someone by texting themselves and changing the contact name, so it's not fully provable

Time for the final night of voting! Town has to either lynch the last mafia or die. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they'll want to play a second game starting tomorrow night.

Haha. No. We're just friends. We met freshman year and we've been hanging out ever since. Lots of people think that though....

At least one person isn't willing to play another game this semester, so it may or may not happen. We'll see.

Looks we tentatively can get another game started next week? A couple people are saying they really don't have time but will still play if we need people.

Also, inspired by that game and the forum mafia I've read, I'm doing a class project tonight that uses mafia games to teach cybernetics and systems theory concepts, so that's fun...

7 is the minimum that ever works in forum mafia.  You'll want 9 though, that's going to be best, 7 man mafia tends to suck.

I've played three person mafia.

Isn't that pretty much Win/Lose/Banana?

It's Town/Mafia/Jester, and nobody can refuse to vote, and you can't vote yourself.

I've done it and you don't need this setup. One person shuffles three cards facedown, one indicates someone is a mafia player, the other two are town cards. As long as you trust the shuffler to shuffle to a point they've lost track of the mafia card, no one knows who the mafia is except for whoever drew the mafia card. 1 lynch decides the game.
