To be perfectly honest, 2 seems like a better option.

I can do 2 sometime afterwards. It seems like a lot of others here like the idea of Capture the Shiny Victini Mafia! I'm gonna go for it. Gotta get to work crafting the roles.

@MegaPod12 your first game often says something about you, giving a good first impression. Do what you think will be the most fun for both players and you, the host.

 

[MegaPod]

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind!

Hmmmmm... Masters of the Whoniverse was a great game, and, although I have gotten better with more experience, it really did give me my start.

The basics were there: good FT, an interesting story, and some whacky roles. I ditched items as a mechanic fairly quickly because they never seemed to get used, but it had been worth a shot.

I'm not sure Video Game Mafia really defined me as a host.

Which is kinda funny, because here I sit hosting its sequel... and I hope it's a lot better than VGM, but I have to wait to end game to find out.

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

Video Game Mafia was...interesting.

 

[Zexy]

I'd say Video Games Mafia, which for me was the third game hosted, shaped a lot what I would end up like as a host. I had to make tough modkill decisions early in my hosting career, although even the second game I've hosted, Random Messages, had its tough moments too.

 

[Soulmaster]

Yeah my first hosting game was terrible and I would be perfectly glad with forgetting it. Second game slightly more interesting as I was cohosting and the main host ended up getting banned mid way through the game, and I was not planning on actually full fledged hosting it. However game 3 is what really made me as a host, game me the most experience and had the most fun.

Those modkills are still the worst moment of my hosting career. That was, what? 4 modkills in one update, wasn't it?

and had the most fun.

Looking back, I think hosting the Murder, She wrote reboot has got to be the game I had the most fun hosting... Don't get me wrong, Fruit Bowl Mafia, among others, were awesome but it was interesting to see how creative players could get with a format where the world is designed to react to the players and not the other way around.

That said, Elementar, I still don't know what your obsession with that lawnmower was

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

Reading back on it, I technically was a modkill, since Ches20 voted for mechanical engineer, not maniacal engineer.

 

[Elementar]

I just wanted to exercise my freedom, and I forgot that lawnmowers spew out toxic gas if you don't turn it off... I wanted to do something stupid, and I succeeded Sorry if that made it hard as host.

 

[Snowy]

It was annoying that you kept trying to get it imto the kitchen but amusing at the same time

 

[Mintaka]

My first game went terrible in the mid when I rushed subbing players and subbed a player who was still playing, something like that. I improved after that, and my second and third games (WRM 1 and 2) went very well.

 

[TheCapsFan]

hey @Mintaka

come play a game with me, I've never played you in mafia before :U

You can both join ME vs WE. We're starting this weekend

 

[Mintaka]

I'm too easy to figure out in mafia games as a player though. xD

Skills aside, currently my work has me working overtime too often, so I'll consider when I have more time to spend each day, since mafia games can demand much attention. ^^;

 

[Doctor Floptopus]

I think the game that really started my hosting career was Red Dwarf Mafia, I believe my first game, where I drafted in Midorikawa for balance help and it's probably my only balanced game to date.
That being said, the game I enjoyed most as a host was Chaos Mafia 1, though MotW comes in close second.

 

[DarthWolf]

You can both join U-pick. We're starting this weekend

Uhm? What? Read again.

 

[Maniacal Engineer]

MotW was really fun. I've enjoyed hosting all of my games.

Oooh. Since I got promoted, I might actually have to make It's All About ME 2 Mafia happen.
