Night chat 100% needs to go. It completely neuters the scum advantage of being able to communicate with one another and renders town masons obsolete.
It was a fun experiment but it's the #1 thing giving town an unfair advantage. Power roles aren't the problem, it's town night chat.
I'm down for doing away with night chat. After day 2 when 50% of the people forget about the game then you'll see. Hell, half of night chat is talking about tequila.
I mean, we could keep the old night chat where there's no game-related talk, of course.
That'd be fine, but didn't that cause issues back in the day which led to the complete banning of night chat altogether? Might have been during the Mr Nobody says. Game chat and breadcrumbing is inevitable when night chat is open.
EBWOP but let's give the no game related night chat a shot before nuking it.
No game-related chat is how we had been doing it for years. There was concern about it because of people posting after dying, but I think it was Grim who eased back on it. And then Baps and rolls became a thing for a long time.
Wow, Judas. I thought you'd remember your mafia history. You scum fucker.
I want to see some way for dead people to still be able to have an effect on the game.
I'm assuming the next theme will be Tiny Tunes Adventures, right? That's the next logical step.
Or Nightmare Before Christmas, or horror-themed antagonists/protagonists (Jason Voorhees, Freddy, Jamie Lee Curtis from Halloween, etc.)?
Topics of conversation for the Night Phase as set by the Game Runner. Whichever post they find most entertaining/funny/interesting, they can offer a boon too that player during the next phase. Nothing game changing, just a little bit of fun depending on the flavour of the game.
This could keep the conversation flowing while not taking away one of the advantages Scum are supposed to have; the ability to discuss the game at night.

I've had a couple of mechanics where they would have, but they've never been activated. Yet.
We have had one or two games with stumps, can’t remember who ran them
Rip, Have you ever run a game?
Yup, a couple, why?
NO!
My nerves couldn't take it after this year.
We should have the Covid II game. This time only six people may socialise and post during any phase!
Let's do it. Venari games are the bomb.com
The newer folks really need to experience a Venari game.
The games Rip runs to torture all of us.
I’ve only ever been in one and the game got abandoned lol.
As an aside I don’t think there’s been a full Town win in Venari, you’ve certainly never hit the killer who’s still out there.
Strangely enough I couldn’t find a Venari game in the archives. I think JP won one that was basically an extended psychology experiment.
Venari is what happens when the end of the last game lasts for the entire game basically, but more confusing.
Wells boys I'm on quarantine for the next two weeks.
Somebody yell at me when a game starts up
Stop licking door handles
Thanks TraXX! It's still sorta early but thinking I might get a little day drunk.
Cheers bud, even VAR gave me a present
Happy Birthday, studs
Happy birthday now start a game
Happy birthday Rip and Jarrod.
:beer:
Thanks guys! :beer: I'm boozed right up, just stuffed my face with ribs in my wife's homemade BBQ. Having a good day.
Cheers all, been a quiet one this year due to bloody Covid
Happy birthday Rip!! Hope you're having a great day.
Closing in on the final week in Survivor. Anyone hosting a pre-thanksgiving mafia?
Let’s do this! Didn’t @Psycho666Soldier do a poll a bit back and BTTF won?
Still up for that? If not has anyone got anything else?
I've been enjoying Survivor but I have a serious craving for mafia.
Looking forward to BTTF if that's next. I'm up for anything though.
Not looking to do it until next year but Videoland Super Mafia 2 is looking pretty awesome. A couple tweaks and it'll be ready to go.
Ha. Yeah that was a shitty draw for you but someone had to be Capt. N. You took your demise in stride.
Plenty of characters though. Hoping some new blood gets stirred up by the time I run it because the early draft has like 30 characters.
Yeah. I have some ideas on who I'd cut but I really don't want to do any of that but the brain has been moving on it. Fun thinking of different characters and how I could fit them in places.
I think the biggest I've seen is mid 20s.
Yeah that's what I figure. We'd get it filled some how.
Try and get Rom.....the one with numbers.
BttF will probably be on hold at least until some kind of break from school. This semester has been kicking my ass, and running a game on schedule just probably wouldn't work out that great without sacrificing my work. But when I have some time, it will definitely be ran next.
In the mean time, I'm down to slank through someone else's creation.
This would’ve been the perfect time to run a Brooklyn Nine Nine Halloween Heist but I blew my load and did it early lol. Writing up another one on only my second game would require some effort and probably help so would rather save that for next year. Did suggest stuff like Red Dwarf and Eastenders in the past but really too UK-centric.
Hope someone else has a good idea as at the moment, fresh out myself.
...do you two need a room?
u better back off asshole rosa is mine
I'm ready for some Mafia. What's on deck?
If you could ensure I win lotto one day this week, I will gladly be a full time mafia game runner for you lot.
I get to be green or purple. Where was the body found and who is sus?
SOMEONE DO A BLACKLIST MAFIA
please
friggin please
Can we all chip in and buy Lotto tickets for Grim till he does the Wire?
Actually no can’t get much of a Mafia faction out of that idea on second thought.
Ideas for a theme:
Power Rangers
TGIF Lineup
Dragonball Z
Law & Order
TGIF is a dam fine idea.
My Videoland sequel is ready.
A Die Hard Christmas mafia is being worked on. Hoping to deliver this to everybody in December.
Captain N is dead, along with all Videoland royalty.
Many low life villains and dubious characters have come out of the wood work to lay claim to the throne. Some out for themselves, some pair together knowing there is strength in numbers.
Who will rise to power?
Ach well, died in glory. Saved the one person everyone wanted dead:

TGIF lineup would be fab
Not the mama
Hey...somebody do something
#JordoForMafiaGM
Is there a sadder end to a sitcom character than Baby Sinclair all bundled up, trying to stay warm with the rest of the family, because the Ice Age was coming?
Jordo's right though, someone start something up! I would just pull the trigger on Videoland 2 but real life is getting in way.
I've been getting my butt kicked at my new job and have just finished organising a disc golf tournament for (so far) 507 people.
I may have a little more time now we have reached our shipment date and I don't have to worry about deliveries anymore.
Who fancies The Wire mafia?
It's the strangest story.
Spoilered because it's a long ramble and unrelated to Mafia.
The moral of the story is basically the two word sentence in the second last paragraph.
I've never seen The Wire but better believe I'm in!
:panic: :panic: :panic:
Never seen it, So why not.
I deserve to be punched for this but I've never seen much Breaking Bad either. Maybe like bits of a couple episodes in Season 1 or 2. I liked what I saw but never got a chance to start from the beginning. Some day though. I finally got around to watching Game of Thrones in one full binge last year so I just need to find a couple weeks to watch this stuff.
Breaking Bad mafia would be great too.
