If we're all some play on Ulti, I think it'd be fair.

We might need a mod to let us know if we could get modded for that thing, though. Pretending to be someone else and all. >_>

hidden alt mafia should be run on an invisionfree board imo. host makes all accounts however he sees fit, assigns you a username, and role/flavor.

that way there is no problems w/ posts and we eliminate metagaming usernames.


I agree.

Okay, but do the numbers stay the same from topic to topic? That is, if Human 17 is the first poster of Topic 2, is he still Human 17 or Human 1?

There's a Survivor board on GFAQs that used to run all sorts of play-by-forum games, and they did several games on other forums. For something where you want to conceal identities of people you definitely want to play the game off of the board. Sure, you can find ways of doing it on GFAQs, but it's going to be a lot harder and more prone to something getting mixed up than just moving the entire game somewhere else.

This.

All players making an account and making sure it has full karma and making sure it doesn't get revealed to anyone so they have a chance of getting into a game that hasn't even had sign-ups yet is just silly. During the actual game you have to worry about people blanking out and forgetting to switch accounts for the mafia posts, and as Ulti mentions, they have to disable any extensions while they play too or else their sig gives them away.

I fail to see how this is easier than playing on another board. Generally playing on GFAQs is more convenient, but it actually works against you in this case -- it's less convenient since you have to be switching between accounts if you want to be posting on GFAQs while playing mafia (and you're toggling extensions at the same time).

Plus… continuity reasons. Either the accounts would never be revealed, or you'd have to make a new account for every new game.

If this is anything more than a one-shot gimmick I'm going to shoot whoever came up with it

I think it adds an unnecessary level to the game, personally. It would be more fun to watch than play, I think.

Beats me. I'm just saying that if there were multiple games you'd need either multiple accounts or anonymity throughout all the anonymous games.

Does FFD wanna run whatever his game is at this point (skyrim, right? <_<), or is Drak gonna go? Or is SpeedYoshi going to run his game?

It is the truth. I am sick of badly balanced, poor excuses for games we've been seeing lately. So called 'great' hosts throwing us their leftover scraps. I want to sign up for a game and know, as either side, that I am going to have a fair shake of it before I get scanned night or one shot night one.

FFD.

You are the one to take me from this desert wasteland into a waiting paradise of balance and amusing flavor.

Only you can deliver me.
