Mafia Hosting Queue

Put me somewhere in 2012 (I'd like it to be in the summer) for my avatar game.

So, is your DBZ game happening or not, and should it still be in the queue?

kill fire and I would like to claim July 2012 for TF2 Mafia.

Since you already have a spot on the calendar, you can only claim July for TF2 Mafia if kill fire is the main host (and you're just a minor GM).

Two large Team Fortress 2 games. Hmm.

Imma talk with Choxorn and see how similar, or different, our games our, and see what could be done to make them different.

He is the main host, who came up with the main ideas for the game and much more of it than I did, I'm just helping him with it, so yeah, I'm the minor GM.

So the calendar, having only one large game per month, doesn't count the ongoing NOTW game right?

Cause one large game per month is harsh. The ORG has two, and sometimes it feels not enough when you die early.

But you get one Large NotW as well as one large (usually themed) Mafia plus a mini-NotW and a mini-Mafia.

Yay, double ninja!

I think the queue has only ever been for mafia, not NOTW. And it's more of a suggestion.

ie. the standard practice has been to have a NOTW, a large mafia, and a small mafia running concurrently at all times.

Yeah, never counted NOTW. NOTW and mini-NOTW seem to have a pretty good setup to me, at least how they theoretically work.

Though I've never been for the hard limits we have here really, on small games you even get different sets of players anyway. Doubly so when people play several more games offsite and complain that two games going on at once here on CFC would be too much time, doesn't even make sense.

However we don't have a lot of activity these days so that it could get tough to fill up games, so it's worth a shot seeing how the new queue works for a while. Better than not having a calendar at least and people just jumping in, that got kinda disorganized.

So I have a question about games based on TV shows.

For anyone who's hosted one: Do you base it on the first season or the last season or what?

Stop effing posting in this thread! How many times does that need to be said!?

I'm scrapping Divine Intervention (sort of) and A Villain's Paradise. The former because I'm revamping that series, and the latter because the premise has been done before, and I just couldn't find a way to make it work to my satisfaction.

(On a side note, I was planning on hosting a Star Wars/LOTR mash-up game in the February slot based heavily on wideyedwanderer's Legend of Zelda's game mechanics, but it just seemed hackneyed. Besides, I really want to get started on this new trilogy, and I'm excited about finally hosting games with an actual storyline, which the Star Wars/LOTR game would have been seriously lacking.)

Instead, my next three large games will be a trilogy, starting with the following game.





Host: Zack
Type of Game: Large
Preferred calendar slot: My February slot
Number of Players: Unknown, most likely in the 30 - 40 range
First time host: No
Progress: 20%

High Priest Kurizhen informs the people that because of their wickedness, God has demanded that one person is sacrificed every day, to be voted on each day. In addition, God has commanded a small group of individuals to slowly eradicate the rest of the people by night. Kurizhen then declares that God has told him that should the people successfully eliminate the killers (the mafia), they will regain his favor, and the sacrifices will be allowed to come to an end. If they aren’t successful, they will all be killed.

(The game takes place in a fantasy setting, and don't worry -- there will be twists, turns, and surprises galore. I pinkie-promise you that it will be a-w-e-s-o-m-e, and hopefully get you in the mood for the hopefully epic feel of the Dakalam trilogy.)

EDIT: Also, very story-driven.

EDIT2: I'm also contemplating implementing a character creation mechanic, similar to what was seen in Atto Ngoogol.

I would love you!

Moving Dakalam to NOTW.

A game setup very similar to wideyedwanderer/remake20's Legend of Zelda game, obviously featuring prominent Star Wars and LOTR characters.

I know I am not announcing a Mafia, but this was the only appropriate place to post it so...

I think that Zack needs to push the Mafia queue down one month. There is NO way that the Simpsons Mafia is going to finish before October.

And you grin because…?

I think several people got discouraged and left anyway.

Either after we've got a good part of Simpsons done, or after Capo finishes and stops holding all our players hostage, let's redo the queue a bit.

If we do this, I've changed my game to something totally non-tf2, and it's place holder title is In Production.

Putting this in the mafia queue because dammit, I am going to host this one day I swear it. I just need time. And by time I mean, 'a job, and some idea of where I will be living for the next year or so'.

It's more mafia than NotW so it goes here instead of there.

Well, I'm interested.
