I forgot we lynched a Mafiosi D1 today. @Maniacal Engineer; I was quite bad at mafia games until RM, but it really takes time to become good at mafia, and avoid any suspicion. Look at protagonist mafia, and Wash mafia, and you can see how bad I was. I may have led the town to lose Wash Mafia. lol

I don't actually think that I've been doing anything wrong, though.
I'm not a bad player by any means. I'm just not given the chance to play or do anything of significance other than dying.

This is how you should think of it!

You will be given the chance sooner or later.

That's exactly how I have been thinking about it, and that's what makes it frustrating when I die for no reason.

As you say, my chance to prove my worth will come along...eventually.

I've actually already cooled down quite a bit. A little pizza with some beer, and writing flavor texts for MotW has relaxed me.

BTW, be expecting that to happen soon.

I am very glad you asked, Cappy!

MotW stands for Masters of the Whoniverse, which is a Doctor Who themed mafia game that Flopunny and I are working on.

I was able to finish all but three of the flavor texts today, so I should be all set to go for tomorrow.

Ah, I thought it was simply called Doctor Who Mafia. But that's awesome! I think I'll sub for that one.

Nothing is ever "simply called" anything, with ME.

I needed to get at least two puns in there somehow, and I succeeded.

@Maniacal Engineer;

About the 'nobody is going to trust you' part, that's not entirely a bad thing. It means you're building a reputation that players will act on. After a certain game in which I was aligned with the mafia, I had several people who were wary of me afterwards due to the amount of lying I had done. So people not trusting you isn't necessarily bad, it just means people are being more cautious, which they should be, to be honest.

The only reputation I feel like I'm building is a reputation of dying pointlessly.
I am the redshirt of TWR. Not exactly what I had in mind...

Red shirts are useful. You do need someone to command everything!

I finished flavor texts for the MotW role PMs!

MotW should be up by tomorrow evening. Looking forward to seeing people sign up!

Yay! Much like I did for TPPmafia, I will sub for that but I will switch to player if I die in one of my other mafias, or my schedule clears up.

MORE GOOD NEWS, EVERYONE!

I just received word from the highest possible authority, @Enzap; that a sockpuppet mafia is permitted during the month of October!

This is a mafia game with Sockpuppets as players.

Further details may be forthcoming, but IMO, this is very exciting. Sockpuppets are finally being given room to expand!

*starts throwing socks around* I can't find the ones I want!

...

Seriously though, I never bothered making a sockpuppet as that halloween thing did sound a little silly lol. Might think about it for a mafia though.

The first sockpuppet mafia would take place next October. It's a little too late to start it this year, especially given how mafia games require a bit of forethought, as opposed to what is essentially RM for sockpuppets.

However, if I am in charge of this thread, which I am willing to be, I have some ideas.

1. The character/roles for the game could be previous incarnations of Sockpuppets, either from the sockpuppet RM thread, or a previous Sockpuppet Mafia game.

2. All players would have to be sockpuppets, but no sockpuppet could belong to a host, which is fine if I am hosting, since I do not have a sockpuppet.

3. Players would have to act like their Sockpuppets would act, as opposed to playing with their usual metas.

The latter two rules seem pretty obvious, but whatever. I'll keep thinking of stuff. I've got a year.

Like I said before, if people really want a sockpuppet I have mine from last year that failed. So if enough people say yes I could post stuff within a day or so. Not to take away from that, ME, but it is a possibility, you can still do one next year.. And enough people saying is more than 2 people replying like normal, liking the post would also work though.
