The World of Worm is inherently a world of choices - it is also a world where Paralell Universes exist and the existence of these universes is not unknown to the players of Worm. edit - It is a world and universe where not only are super powers real, but they are common, and they often go to the most damaged individuals you can imagine. One such group, is the Slaughterhouse Nine. In one such Alternate Universe, The Slaughterhouse Nine have arrived at the current location of The Toybox - an unaligned collective of Tinkers and Inventors, who peddle their specialised wares in an attempt to build fame, and fortune. Their motives in targetting Toybox are unknown to any but themselves, however unlike in the canonical world of Worm where the capture and subsequent shift of Toybox to its own dimensional plane assisted the Slaughterhouse Nine in preparing to bring about the end of the world following within 2 years, this time, Toybox was not unprepared for attack, and the persistent hunter Defiant, arrived in time to contest their plans. - Open to Non-Auspollers - Aiming for around 20 people, though more are welcome. - We are playing to hammer. - Days are 24 hours long and dependant on when I can pull my poo poo together. - Day 1 will start once we've got enough people and I've got my poo poo together. - No editing of your posts. - No quoting role PMs - There are no millers or death millers or reverse death millers or anti-reverse death millers in this game. That being said, expect roles. Superheroes are cool. - Role explanations: http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Roles but feel free to PM me for any clarifications! - Deadposting is not prohibited - post if you like, but don't be a dick and try to keep contributing. Cheerleading only. - The more Civilians killed, the higher the chance that a remaining Civilian will gain a specific power through a trigger event

Can I suggest a rule? Just thinking of thousands really. I was talking to gaspy about it towards the end of the last game and apparently dead doc was too: I think we need to stop the referring to past games. Like arguing someone is or isnt playing like they were in game X or whatever. Should we just treat each game as each own little uhh instance? Like if you think toml is playing different to than last game maybe act on it, but don't mention it and don't make it party of your argument? Idk. I've decided I'm not going to anymore.

I was talking to gaspy about it towards the end of the last game and apparently dead doc was too: I'm not playing, but my 2 cents is that this is a bad rule. Basically the meat and potatoes of mafia is conversation. I personally think those conversations should have as few artificial constraints as possible. It's easy to justify having a rule of "Don't share PMs from the Mod, or fake PMs from the Mod" because that rule is entirely consistent with the principle that communications between a mod and a player are secret. It's also easy to justify having a rule of "Don't post after hammer" because that can steal the mod's thunder (and given that it's the mod's game that's pretty poor form). It's also easy to justify having a rule of "Don't talk about this outside the thread" because that breaks the day night cycle. I don't think there's as clear a justification for the rule you're proposing.

Asphyxious posted:So if you notice the disparity, you can say you think they're suss, and if they ask why you're just like ? Well if something's suss only cause it's different, it might not be such a great argument to make in the first place. LIKE IN LAST GAME, I was only suss on Beet's differences cause they added up to less scumhunting instead of more. Presumably there's some bad consequences to that difference, and you can point out how it's trying to be sneaky. I pretty much agree with TOML that trying to rein it in could be a bit too much of an artificial constraint. But it might be harder for newer players to follow your logic too if they aren't going off the same kind of historical view, so backing it up more with something else sounds like a good idea anyway. Hm, this might not work too well for Gwyn, though. "Wow, Gwyn's gameplay has improved by leaps and bounds! ...must be a team of coaching in the scumdoc"

I only play mafia with you guys, and the reason for that is that I kind of know who you are, and it feels like playing with friends. Saying that we can't talk about past performance in games cuts directly against that - it's like forcing me to pretend that I'm playing with strangers. Mafia without the ability to use a bit of folk psychology (e.g. "Hey, Beet doesn't usually post like that!") is a hobbled and deficient version of mafia.

Excessive meta-posting makes for lame games but being able to point out strange behaviours is a key part of Mafia. It's a conundrum.

Those On My Left posted:I'm not playing, but my 2 cents is that this is a bad rule. Hmm I didn't explain it well. I mean the meta game. Eg. Gaspy arguing against me saying I only wanted to kill him because I joked about in Facebook. Or arguments that it's revenge from x game or y game. I'm saying we limit it to talking about the current game people are participating in. If they want to argue someone's acting out of character yeah fine, you couldn't even try to police that I guess. Fair enough, it doesn't have to be a rule the . I'll just treat it as scummy behaviour in future.

I don't have issues with people bringing up meta arguments because as said before given how well we all know each other it would be kinda weird not to bring it up. that said, it has become a little bit of an issue that some posters are getting hammered for who they are, rather than their content, so I'd really rather not see any of that.

I think the way people post is only going to change and evolve the more games they play. I mean, it is my intention to post drastically differently in the next game and I don't think that should be considered inherently suspicious. Regarding voting being based on old feuds? Just seems like people would do so at their own peril, really. I'm genuinely fascinated to see what happens if Anidav survives to day 3
