Posts from Mafia: general discussions.

I have the following suggestion: as an experiment, conduct a psychological mafia game on Hv instead of the usual mafia game with clues.

Great idea! I'll play the psychological version.

Elina, the avatar reminded me of my depressing unfinished artwork.

I want to play, but I'll wait and see how Vegtam manages this time.

You can try it, but I don't think it will be very interesting. How can you play without clues?

as always, let's just not waste time searching for clues).

and there will be twice as much spam.

So, we won't execute anyone here :) If you can play psychological Mafia in real life, you can't determine someone's psychological state just by reading their posts on a forum... but you can try. Here, probably no specific topic is needed, and the roles can just be Mafia and Townspeople.

Well, there will be nighttime events, and you can use them to get an idea.

Avku looked, yeah, she's the best.
Regarding "there will be nothing to talk about" - that's what everyone says who hasn't played yet. "How to play without clues?", "What to write about?"
As my modest experience has shown, all of this comes during the game; the important condition is that there are a couple of experienced players among the participants to set the right direction for the discussions. And there is generally no idle chatter in good games :smile42:, there's no time for it, except maybe on the last day of the game. Those who like to chat quickly sign up for Mafia. ;)
On the portal, my last game (where, by the way, 80% of the players were playing this type of Mafia for the first time) went simply "great."
I had to experiment a little to make it interesting for everyone, including the innocents, by introducing a few innovations that don't affect the essence of the game but add "topics for discussion" after the newspaper is released, so to speak, but the result was worth it.
By the way, don't expect too much from the newspaper. After playing Mafia with clues, it will seem extremely stingy with information

Without clues, I'll be fine. :)
Veg, Ellie, Thor, maybe with classic roles according to the established rules?

I thought that people who just like to "chat" aren't highly regarded in the game...
And just so you know, I'm out.

Vegtamchik, how are things going? Has school started yet?

The Mafia game is three-quarters ready, but there are two issues to discuss. The first issue is the number of players. The setting was initially planned for 14-16 people, but we would like to avoid having empty slots, as well as a large number of reserve players. The second issue is the time for day and night. Since psychological Mafia does not require extensive in-game newspapers, the game day and night usually fit within real-life hours, for example, 22 hours of day and 2 hours of night (of course, night actions can be submitted in advance). The problem is with my time zone – I will hardly be able to be online later than 4:00 PM Moscow time. Would a night mode from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM suit the players?

That works for me, as I will be submitting the non-disclosure agreement in advance anyway.

I don't really care, so it's fine.
