On the dawn of a new Day, the sun shines over the mesa and illuminates the train of visitors rolling into Sweetwater. It's a picturesque American Western town where time seems to have stood still while the rest of humanity has advanced. Except, for the residents of Sweetwater, time really has stood still. As robotic Hosts for this Western themepark, every day is but a repeat of the last. Programmed to follow their 'loops' and appease the desires of their Human visitors, all without the faintest idea as to the nature of their reality. Variability is only intended to come from patrons of the park - what could this newest group of passengers bring?
Day 1 Start!

Alrighty, so I think I'm going to go ahead and get this fired up. There's a few wording changes in the second post for added clarity and I've updated the lynch replacement from 'eliminate' to 'exile' since that seems to be the phrase people have liked.
I'm going to go ahead and send out your Role QTs. Go ahead and confirm in there once you've received it and ask any questions you may have. If you no longer intend on playing, let me know and I'll pass the buck to one of our lovely subs!
Day 1 will begin July 7th at midnight Forum Time (as long as all players have confirmed). Until then, thread locked!

« on: June 21, 2020, 05:49:13 pm »Correct! I just modified that for clarityMaintenance (Living): While Dead, each Day you may post Request: [Player Name] in your QT. At the end of the Day, if the requested player is a Living Human, you will enter Analysis Mode with them at the beginning of the Night. During that Night, you may talk to each other privately. They may post Fix in their Personal QT to become Living at the beginning of the next Day.
When you say "to become Living", I presume it's referring to the person with Maintenance, not to the Living Human that was the target, right?

This is a closed, 11-player RMM game designed by Archetype. This is a fairly complex RMM that features unique abilities alongside new spins on old favorites.
Flavor for this game comes from the HBO Sci Fi Drama Westworld. Characters and the powers they utilize are influenced by the first season of the series. Spoilers do abound, so I would suggest shying away if you ever plan on watching on the show (or do play if you think your memory will be hazy enough
).
Each player will receive a Personal QT with the first post detailing their Role: their Character Name, Alignment, Win Condition, and Abilities. It’s important to note that a character’s relative ‘goodness’ in the show has no bearing on their relative ‘goodness’ in this game as Character Names are assigned relatively independently of Alignment.
Additionally, each player will also be told that they’re either a Host or a Human. When anyone dies, their Character Name will be revealed along with their Host/Human designation. When a Human dies, their alignment will be revealed. A Host, on the other hand, will not have their alignment revealed upon death.
Players in the game are also either Living or Dead. Everyone starts the game as Living, but become Dead when killed or eliminated. Living players can vote and post in-thread and Dead players cannot. There is at least one player in this game with the ability Maintenance (see sample PM) which allows for a Host that is otherwise Dead to again become Living. As such, a Dead Host will not be invited to join the Spectators Chat until there is no way for them to return or affect the game.
Each role’s abilities will also name which types (Living/Dead) of players in the game it can target (if it’s a targeted action). Players cannot use their abilities while dead or self-target unless otherwise noted. Players may also have access to additional factional abilities depending upon their alignment. A sample Role is below:
Please do note that Day actions will only be resolved when I’m online and done in the order they were submitted. I will be doing my best to check Personal QTs often and will notify players when I’ve resolved any submissions. Please also note that Night actions are due 36 hours after it begins.

A sample Role is below:
Quote
Character Name: Angela - Host
Alignment: Town
Win Condition: You win when all Mafia-aligned players are Dead and there is at least one Living Town Host.
Abilities:
1. Welcome to Westworld (Dead/Living): Each Night, you may post Reveal: [Player Name] in your QT. That player will be told that you are a Host.
2. Maintenance (Living): While Dead, each Day you may post Request: [Player Name] in your QT. At the end of the Day, if the requested player is a Living Human and you are a Dead Host, you will enter Analysis Mode with them at the beginning of the Night. During that Night, you may talk to each other privately. They may post Fix in their Personal QT to have you become Living at the beginning of the next Day.

« on: June 16, 2020, 07:28:12 pm »Yeah I think I read into your comment more than what is actually there with how I phrased my response, like you were saying that the vocab change wouldn't actually necessitate changing the scripts because the counts would still be right. I see that wasn't at all what you were saying, so sorry about that.You’re all good! The No Lynch choice is still a good point to raise.

Forum Games / Re: Proposal to stop using "lynch"
« on: June 16, 2020, 06:39:26 pm »You’re correct that no lynch would need to be changed, but I didn’t disagree about whether other non “counts” wording changes would need to be made.Changing words in general causes issues with the way we think. We have to constantly remind ourselves to use the "correct" term. I also know that some people here have written scripts to automate things like vote counts. People are going to have to change their scripts, or worse, forget to change them, and possibly get incorrect counts. I prefer consistency over fluid names.
I am unsure how any vote count scripts would receive incorrect counts. I believe that would only happen if there was inconsistency around the specific wording for Vote:.
I understand the desire to preserve history, especially for games meant to model history. However, I think that how we play Mafia here now has already gotten away from the original historical reference which I think does make this a valid discussion to have (even if it may end up being RSP).
The counts might not be incorrect, but the script writers would still have to go in and edit them to correct the output which usually would include a phrase like "with x alive, it takes y to lynch." Also "Vote: No lynch" would have to be changed. So there is some work that would be involved on that side of things.

I live in the Deep South and whenever I host IRL I almost never say “Lynch” for similar reasons. It definitely feels worse than when typing it out. I usually substitute with a generic “vote to kill someone” but even something unique to the flavor of the setup you’re playing could be fun.

I've run a few Mafia games over Zoom with a few friends and its definitely possible/fun. Especially with utilizing the breakout rooms to allow Mafia to chat during the night phase 
Card sharing and revealing might be hard, but might be doable using the chat function.Would you have players formally announce when they want to card/color share with someone? I'm guessing so...I also wonder if you'd want to let players chat privately with each other too. IIRC when we use to run 2R1B on the forums many moons ago you could but had to announce you were doing so in the QTs or something.
