If we get some more genuine first timers out of the blue, then I'll let the newbie game start before mine.

I have been proposing limiting the games for MONTHS!

Too many games is why the new games don't fill up, its also why activity is waaay down on the games that ARE running.

Would it be worth trying to get a shorter deadlines trend going?

Hey guys, I just got an idea in conversation with Shraeye and TheMunch.  What if, instead of having a million fafillion games going at one time, we only have 1 real, 1 bastard, and 1 blitz game going at any one time?  Obviously people can't give 100% attention to 3 real games at once so why don't we slow it down a bit?  So as soon as one blitz games ends, another can begin?  That sort of thing.  Maybe this has been discussed already but I thought it was worth some discussion.

I don't like this, because well... I only play "real" games, and when I die, I would like there to be another one that I am playing or another one that will start soon, so I can play. Now you could say, well then play some other games! I could, but I don't enjoy them or the schedule doesn't work with me. And I could say, yes... we could only have 1 game going at a time, or people could have self control and only join 1 game at a time if that is all they could handle. I don't think we need 10 games going all at once, but limiting it to one at a time doesn't seem right either.

I think having 2 normal games, 1 of everything else is the best.

Like yuma said, some people only play normal games, and when those end, there's really nothing else for them to do.

I also think that we shouldn't have blitz games running constantly. I mean, I like them as much as the next guy, but they seem to take away a lot of time from some of the other games.

Disagree with the blitz part. Blitz is my favorite form of mafia nowadays

Bankable deadlines, I fully support.  Flat-out shorter deadlines (like, 1 week per day), I don't support.  Too much bad play resulting from deadline pressure, in my experience.

If newbie game still needs a co-mod when it launches, I'm happy to do so.

My game is coming along very well. I have a very good sense of what it will look like. I still have to finalize some details. I would be able to open signups at any time, but things still seem a bit busy at the moment. Maybe I will post a signup sheet when M-XVIII ends?

I want a lot of people for the game, though I think the consensus is that more than like 18 or something is just too much.

The system is going to be very unique. Everyone will begin as Vanilla. There will only be 2 different PMs (I think): Vanilla Townie, and Mafia Goon. Basically, there will be a "world map/dungeon" of sorts for players to roam during the Night phase. Exploration of the dungeon will be how players gain powers. They will need to trade in money to buy powers from various stores. Money will be gained by earning various game-related accomplishments during day/night.

It's less insane than it sounds. A regular mafia game, I assure you, with a very new system for getting the powers.

Ha! That would be awesome. However, this game will be Dominion themed and Treasure themed. The dungeon is the Bank, the VTs are Coppersmiths, the mafia are Mountebanks, etc.

Cool, cool. Yeah, this is basically going to be along those lines, while still not overriding the main thing, which is still mafia.

Of course, mafia is always the key thing!

I'll pass any ideas i had over to you in case you wanted to incorporate them.

The banker titled used earlier also made me think of my deal or no deal mafia!

Seeing as there are a few RMMs in the works, I think now would be a good time for me to put my name down for one at some point in the distant future. I have some very new ideas (as in I came up with them last night), and I'd like a more experienced mod to have a look at them for me at some stage.
