6. Mafia wins when they control have the town.

Yoda grammar?

Whoops. Fixed. Should say half.

The ship was the largest ever built. The human experiments-turned-reality-tv had increased their funding exponentially, and they had decided to cement their legacy with the greatest competition yet.

"Captain, we've passed the halfway point in our journey. Should we deploy another teaser, sir?"

"Absolutely, ensign."

The captain drummed his fingers on the armrest of the captain's chair. And he grinned.

New teaser added.

Well THAT is different.

Question: Is there a potential (or actual) conflict between Item #5 under "Game Mechanics" in the OP, (where it says the town's wincon is to kill all the mafia), and the fact that you have highlighted in red the word "threats" in the last line of the VT's role PM (which to me intimates the possibility of a slightly different wincon for town)?

No. Red for style only. Plus, red = mafia.

Another rule modification for your perusal.

Well that's interesting, but is it really necessary? Have you seen this problem before?

Going to /out for now if I have enough time when this is coming up I may join then. Love this game but am really stuck for time right now.

Ash, take me out of the pool for the last slots please.

I'm out.

Can you make my /in tentative? I'm really overworked right now, and am worried about freetime.

All, many more spoilers to the set-up added to Post 2.

This is a reminder that the game will start on Monday, the 14th. Sign-ups will close on Saturday or so, so I can roll to see who gets in the game, and then roll the roles. PMs will go out Sunday, the 13th. The entire set-up will be posted at that time, and the thread will be locked. Everyone will have 24 hours to review the set-up and think about the game. Mafia will have that time to talk in their QT.

I do urge signing up, as I believe this will be the most intense game of mafia we've had on f.ds to date. It is complex and advanced, and offers (in my opinion) the largest strategic space we've ever had for both mafia and town as teams, and as individuals. You will need to truly contemplate what you are doing in the game, so much so that I will be surprised if there is any RVS at all.

If you aren't playing, ask for the speccy QT. There will be plenty to discuss!

I'm going to guess power roles won't have the same type of votes VT's / goons have.

No, you just only get a single vote. (maybe 2 each, with double the required # to lynch). Hence why "unvote" isn't a valid command, RVS won't exist in it's normal format, and the PM's say "your votes are potent."

I continue to wonder why I, a player who is not by any definition or metric good at this game, and not a habitual blitzer, got one of the auto-spots and a personal invitation to play.

Nonsense.

To quote Insomniac:

"Nonsense"

Furthermore, this game isn't just ANY old blitz game. It's a specially designed one by Ashersky that auto-inned ALL of the very, very old-school players. True to it's title for perhaps the first time in blitz history, this game was MADE to be "The Veteran Game". Whatever mechanic or reason there is behind it, I don't know. But there's little doubt that it wasn't intentional.

Eevee · « **Reply #72 on:** January 09, 2013, 05:42:09 pm »

Nonsense indeed Joth, you are just as good or bad at this as the rest of us who got auto-inned. Going to be cool to get to play blitz with you though!

Maybe you're a great scum player and just haven't had enough tries at it.

Is this some sort of blitz bastard mafia?!
