I'm going to NYC from June 2 -10 (we're going in style! Upper Class on Virgin Atlantic!) so Super Mario Kart Mafia will take place taking my trip into account.

So just to confirm, Spak is going next?

By the looks of things Spak is next on the list after Golden Phoenix. The current game will at least go 3 more days.

Yip, I am next. I will start sign ups after Golden Phoenix's game is over. Week or 2 signups and then game starts. Plugs already knows my games design.

i have a few ideas like a faked death and a newspaper writer who gets to write one false article each day.

I would make the characters
Dilinger - investigator
Al Capone - special role
Babyface - special role
Bonnie and Clyde- brother and sister

and the mafia is the cops trying to get them

I have a theme idea. I would do a game eventually.

I've had an idea festering in which you shift it so the mafias greatly outnumber the townies, but the townies somehow have more power....

I'm thinking to have two or three mafias, and then have the townies number the same amount as any one mafia team. Make it so the townies all know who each other are. Then make a rule where if a mafia puts a hit out on a townie, the townie will die but the mafia member who did the killing will be "arrested" and thrown in jail (effectively 'killed' and kicked out of the game). Still allowing voting obviously.

I dunno, I'm still playing with how the balance would work.. but i think it would be cool to force the mafias to have to go after each other with hits, but possibly band together to vote a townie out. Just a thought. The key (and possibly only) special townie role would be that of the preacher... and I'd give him the ability to convert mafia members back to the side of good somehow...

So yeah, the core concept would be that the mafias' biggest threat would be the townies but they can't kill them with hits.

It remains my goal to somehow use the Zelda mythos in a Mafia game.

Stratos · « **Reply #160 on:** May 11, 2009, 02:14:00 PM »

I like your idea, Pale. Especially the prison idea that allows mafia to vote after 'death'.

Maybe make it that most of the townies are vigilante/killers and the mafia are limited in the amount of kills they can make. That way it's a race since both sides have killing powers. You might need a large group of people to pull it off though.

Zelda would be fun. There are a lot of good characters, items and powers in those games.

NWR_DrewMG · « **Reply #161 on:** May 11, 2009, 09:43:52 PM »

There are a lot of good characters, but most of them are one-off and pretty forgettable. There's maybe... what, 5 characters in the Zelda franchise that are actually notable? Link, Zelda, Saria, Impa, Ganon, Aghanim...

Hey Stevey! He forgot Malon. She must be avenged!

hey pale maybe if you make it so that there are like 4 teams, but you have to figure out who is on your team through a system of spying. The goal would be to figure out who is on your team and then to kill other people on other teams

That's what's would be fun about it, creating stories for the lessor characters to make them interesting.

I disagree. Daurian the Goron, Tingle, Sahasralah, Naboru, Ruto, the Owl, Talon, Marin, Bow Wow, Navi, Skull Kid, Happy Mask Salesman, the King of Red Lions, Tetra...I could go on if you like.

Besides, as Mop it up said, you can use mafia to flesh out lesser known characters. All you really need are names and avatars for characters in this game.

Well, we will see how well this game mechanic works in Mario Paintball. Personally, I hope it goes well, because I really enjoyed evolving this format of Mafia. Plugabugz gets the credit for the original idea.

i have an idea for a new zombie crisis, there are two teams, everyone knows who everyone is, but the siblings role would be the mad scientist and necromancer and they are secret. Someone gets infected by the siblings every night. The goal each day would be to win the coin flip winning immunity. once the game is down to 7 people the teams merge and then they have to individually win the coin flips. Like survivor with zombies.

Nothing against Spaks game, or Perm's idea, but I'm sort of itching for a back to basics mafia game. I understand the rules of Spak's game, but I have no idea how to play the game properly, I feel like I'm completely in the dark.

Also, I've had some family emergency stuff come up, so that might explain why I've been away as well.

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #171 on:** May 21, 2009, 09:57:13 PM »

DrewMG: It takes a completely different strategy, because it is really a different game.

My game should NEVER take the place of traditional Mafia. But I hope somebody makes another game similar to it, and that we keep it in the rotation. I think it has huge potential and great strategy.

I mean look how this crazy game has turned out...I would have never guessed it would have lasted this long...I thought today, tomorrow tops it would be over.

NWR_DrewMG · « **Reply #172 on:** May 22, 2009, 09:11:59 AM »

Agreed, I'd like to try this game again someday when I can be a little more invested.

GP's game is never ending.

When do sign ups normally open again? After there are less than five or whenever Khush decides it's time?
