I'm feeling fairly confident this was a generally well-received game, and that most people expected it to be stupid overpowered on the terms that, well, I'm pretty sure people stated as much in the signup thread. [Moogle in particular].

Game fit to theme.

Eh, I dunno until the stalemate bullshit at the end I thought it was pretty fun.

I dunno. Most of the mafiates suicided, or wanted to suicide. The Black faction kinda got cheated out of their win. And town never really had that much of a chance in the first place. Is there anyone who would want to play a game like this again?

And come on. "You should all have expected a badly designed game from me because some people apparently expected it" is not a valid excuse for actually setting up a badly designed game.

Edit: Fixed my language, sorry bout that.

It's the tone of NPF mafia games. People want to GM because they thought of roles or twists that they'd think would be fun to watch in mafia. Watch being the key word.

Hence why I'm not signing up for Bard's game.

Yeah I just thought it was kinda crappy that although we could control the lynch at the end and continue the stalemate until Nikose decided to just end the game, that in the end we had to pick either Bahamut or Sif to kill off and give the other team the win. Yeah you can always say "Well geez, you should've killed off the BGs first" but still I'd rather SOMEONE get a win than the game stalemate out and go into Entropy.

Gregness · 12-09-2011, 12:45 PM

High power =\= crappy but I'm curious why you all wanted to suicide? I mean, not having the context of reading your PM's but it didn't seem like you guys had anything to hate.

Which reminds me RE: fun. I actually REALLY hated D1 'cause of Kerensky's shenanigans, but that was as much Kerensky playing his role terribly as it was anything else so whatever.

Nikose Tyris · 12-09-2011, 12:46 PM

Huh. I could have sworn you were the one who was joking and saying that It was an FR mafia, and therefore would be overpowered and bullshit, as standard for FR. My mistake and apologies, Moogs.

Edit: Ehhhh after thinking about it, yeah okay, Black Network can have this win too.

Cause yeah the double Bodyguard thing, Kerensky as inspector was actually supposed to take care of rooting those guys out earlier.

Also Bahamut could only protect Sister-Masons and himself.

That's why I think Fenris' Fuck You mafia might actually be a pretty good thing to keep around to let people get that sort of thing out of their system. They can beta test roles they've created and if it turns out to be bullshit well, it's a fuck you mafia the whole thing is bullshit.

Nikose Tyris · 12-09-2011, 12:48 PM

Also I invented Fuck You mafia, and I'm thinking that might end up being a warning sign in the future.
