nordlead said: So essentially you want everyone to change from looking innocent to looking guilty, which honestly doesn't seem to really add to the game. In fact, you are trying to encourage "bad" play by everyone at which point the game will devolve into what VGC seems to be having and hating currently, bad play. The last few signup threads I've read have all boild down to something like... "The game sucked because so and so roleclaimed right away" or "people posted their PMs" or other complaints about how people are trying to break the game. I don't see why we should encourage everyone to play the way that is currently being complained about. To top it off, VGC has a bad habit of having horribly long games. I don't see why we should encourage people playing even slower by refusing to vote. Overall I think it is a bad idea. |
I'm not encouraging "bad" play. .Isn't it the job of the town to figure out whos town and whos mafia ? I'm just adding a team of psychopaths into the equation...Jesters can't be too blatant about being who they are. But I think its an interesting dynamic that will make this game a little different from the rest.
Besides, there is a cop to find out whether the player they investigate is jester, mafia or town.
Why would players refuse to vote ? There are 2-3 unkillable Jesters. To help out non-jester players I will mention the number of Jesters remaining alive...it'll be in the day start flavour.
Roleclaiming isn't the problem. isn't that necessary ? :/ Name claiming is whats bad about themed games. and posting PMs are not allowed anyway...
Also I forgot to mention that the Jesters are not taken into the equation in the mafia 50% majority thing...that might cause a problem if they are...
