Grey was random. Dagda because he was pretty much the most town player in the game due to his claim and also a player that was likely to contribute. Those would be my guesses.
So, how does everyone feel about a Shadows over Camelot game? It's got some powers that aren't the norm (It's kinda like King's Court or Murder in the Court), so newbies probably wouldn't fare too well in it, but I know we have some veteran mafia players who could figure it out.
I'd prefer to get the newbies up to speed. Have a simple game, and then have a few vets where the focus is on having fun and teaching (looking at KTC here).
Alright, so we want to run a normal game, ie something like 3 mafia (Lets say 2 Vanilla 1 Godfather for simplicity), a medic, a cop, a vigilante, and then a bunch of vanillas say 6-7 or so (Vanillas are good for newbies)? No flavor, nothing too special in terms of powers, and the only real quirk is the Godfather's stealth mode. Sound good?
That works, Regulate's suggestion was all Vanilla except a doc and a cop, but IMO that encourages the breaking strategy of "cop claim day 1, doc protect him from the shadows while town continuously votes for no kill until cop gets mafia read."
Yeah, that would be one of the "Follow the Cop" games. Alright, well if this one is done I can go do a setup for the next one, unless someone else wants to GM it.
I don't plan on playing in it, I rage too much. I want to mod a game idea I've been having, but I'll start working on it after this week, and plan to start it when I'm in China.
Oh, you are going to China? What for, business, school? I'd actually prefer if the more veteran players kept out of the game this time since It would be a training game. No more than 3-4 vets, so that we can fit in about 10 newbies, and the experience gap isn't a huge issue.
Xinde didn't read the story that I worked so hard on X_X We didn't have faces after you all burned them off.
@Xinde Wow, that's pretty cool! Alright guys, a new game is up in the Off-Topic forum if anyone wanted to play again. The story won't be as.....unique(?) as Loy's, but it's a training game and not a banana island full of strange things. @KingJad @Geressen @Napalm Monk @Qucas @Greysands22 @KTCAOP @GabrielQ @Dagda @Gaverion @Emries @PurpleTop
i was hoping kt wouldn't be mafia because being afk for the entire game isn't really something i feel is, well, good for the mafia side really also people really need to get over their fascination with power roles and role claims in general. the words you use and ideas you give are hugely more effective than 99% of the town roles i've seen. it's a team game, recognize how the team is most likely to win and play that way. don't focus on your own k/d/a
I want to play a Mafia game, and I´m a newbie at it myself, but from what I´ve read instead of acting as a new player in the game most of you just act as complete retards the majority of the time. Sad, but true. With that said, when the "Vets" start a new game I will probably jump in, unless the same weirdos try to play it, then I´m out.
