Forgot a poll.

Who's Online hasn't exactly come up as an issue yet, but it should still be discussed. Lurking Who's Online allows you to see when people are viewing the thread, when they are posting in the thread, and when they are sending or reading messages. This can be used as a way to read players based on things that occur outside of the thread itself. While it is fun and I have used it a lot, it has potential for abuse, especially to see if someone is sending an ability use or viewing a result from a PM right before or after deadline. I'm in favor of banning it but I'll put it up to a vote.

If anyone has an interest in hosting mafia, whether it be the standard setup, a new setup, an old setup, one of Sky's supposedly unlimited setups, or anything else, feel free to reach out to me and we can discuss it from there. Any potential setup must go through a balance check and be given my seal of approval, but I am generally open to most ideas. I think most people already understand this, but I guess it's not clearly stated anywhere. Below is a discussion from the DeadPad that led to this post and goes over possible hosts for the setups in the current poll.

Spoiler for Hidden:
Linkcat:15:48 Anyone have suggestions for more polls?

Sky:15:49 Why does your "next setup" poll suck

Sky:15:50 Look at this fascist, banning consecutive role madness games

Oa:15:50 "The standard setup" meaning the EtG themed mafia?

DC:15:52 I'd like to know the theme of the setup link

DC:15:52 if that is possible

Linkcat:15:53 There' no other role madness setup ready, Sky.

Linkcat:15:53 Standard setup is the elements themed one.

Linkcat:15:53 Theme for my setup is Dresden Files

Linkcat:15:54 If it's the standard one rob will probably host.

Sky:15:55 Link - of course there's another role madness setup ready, I have an infinite number of setups

Sky:15:55 Also, is your setup *not* role madness, Link?

Linkcat:15:55 It is

Linkcat:15:55 All the options are role madness

DC:15:56 wait it's all role madness?

Linkcat:15:56 I generally don't want people hosting twice in a row. I can put you in the poll for 76, Sky.

Sky:15:56 I wasn't volunteering. But I have setups.

Sky:15:59 By the way, Link, where is the host poll

Linkcat:16:02 The next setup poll is the host poll. Standard and all Fate Egg can be run by anyone, the silly game would be me.

DC:16:03 if it's in 1 week

Sky:16:03 What about the closed setup designed by Linkcat? Can I host that one?

DC:16:03 i think ill have to pass for my sanity no matter what

Linkcat:16:03 No

Sky:16:03 Fascist

Oa:16:05 well, polls for 1 week and signups for another makes it at least 14 days until next mafia

Sky:16:08 You should totally add an option for "A role madness setup designed by sky"

Sky:16:08 I bet someone will host it for me if I pay them enough

Sky:16:10 More seriously, you should probably include which setup can be hosted by which people.

Sky:16:11 I would never vote for a silly setup, but if I did want to, the fact that only Link can host would sway my vote to something else

Linkcat:16:12 I don't think the host is that important. If they're good then it shouldn't have any impact on the game.

Sky:16:12 I don't think the presidential candidate is that important. If they're good then they should perfectly represent the interests of their party

Sky:16:13 You're an idiot

Sky:16:13 I want to know precisely because a lot of hosts are not good

Sky:16:14 If everyone was good at hosting, then you would be right, but it is both naive and painfully inaccurate

Linkcat:16:14 That's not the same thing. A host is just someone who executes he rules as written. Ideally we would have an automated system. I wouldn't let someone host who I didn't trust to do a good job.

Sky:16:15 Your rules cannot possibly cover every situation that can arise, especially with the role madness setups that we tend to have

timpa:16:15 eats popcorn

Sky:16:15 Someone has to be the person to make judgement calls and clarify role interactions

Sky:16:15 That person is almost always the host

Linkcat:16:15 The reason I would want to host the silly setup is because Night actions would get pretty complicated, but there are a few others I would let run it.

www:16:17 oh i can make those calls

www:16:17 but someone else can host

Sky:16:17 At least put possible hosts in a post somewhere

Linkcat:16:17 Imagine w3 hosting.

Linkcat:16:17 Oh god

unnamed:16:17 LMAO

www:16:17 yh im not gonna host

www:16:17 but i am happy to make important calls

www:16:18 so you can have a nub host

Sky:16:18 You extending your arbitrary judgements over the entire community is probably why you're not a good FGO

www:16:18 this way, sky will join mafia even if youre a host

www:16:18 as the calls wont be made by you q.q

Sky:16:18 Let's try this from a different angle - what reason do you have for not listing which setups can be hosted by which people?

www:16:18 jk jk, idc who hosts or what the steup is

www:16:18 i just want mafia

Linkcat:16:18 I have not reached out to anyone about hosting the standard or fate egg setup yet.

Sky:16:19 Okay, so say that.

Sky:16:19 Needlessly concealing information is for mafia members.

www:16:19 tbh link would be happy for anyone to host if they want to

Linkcat:16:19 If I wanted to make arbitrary judgments I would just decide what's run by myself.

Sky:16:19 You already do that.

Linkcat:16:20 Okay, yes I'll block anything that I don't see as fit to run, but I let people choose from different options.

Sky:16:20 -People's Republic of China

Sky:16:21 Your polls exclude more setups than they actually contain

Linkcat:16:21 Nobody has actually reached out to me with a setup except for one person with a rough draft.

Linkcat:16:22 Anyone is free to volunteer with a new or old setup.

Sky:16:22 You should write that somewhere.

If anyone had roles they liked that they would like to see in future setups, please do comment on them. I'll try my best to include them.

For legal reasons, I do not actually believe Linkcat is a fascist. (His overwhelming desire to "make things fair" suggests that he might, instead, be a communist.)

Let me be clear... I was 90% in on it being kae by mid-day today... I missed all EOD and the closing posts until catching up just now --- and when I saw it end with Coffee getting lynched I thought to myself "awww nuts, lost two in a row now as town where the game went to f3". Then the lovely pink Honkai Core text in the post about Coffee's death!

8-)

Cool to be right on my final night alive in-game, and so wrong in deadpad! hehe

Also, good thing nobody saw me PM-ing because I tend to PM a lot about my role ... moreso as town even. I do it close-ish to deadlines some too. While sometimes seeing a /who ends up being a "right" lead I really think it is wrong just as often as it would be right, no? I have it open a lot near EOD's because I like to know who might be putting together posts etc. while I'm trying to keep up with rapid-posting rates at our EOD's.

I was very paranoid of deep wolfs, because after the previous game, I'm living in a world of WIFOM. So if things are exactly like they seem, it throws me off.

On the topic of who I think played the best in this game, I think Coffee (because he played really well and only got found by PoE) and TorB (even though he tunneled a lot in this game, but other than that, solid plays).
And we keep driving into the night

I figured I'd post this. The only new thing here would be everyone's preferred roles. (I was given access to this host sheet, and suggested minor things for the setup before it was initially sent for review.)

I got here by googling "skyironsword mafia".

Alright, so here's the deal. The closed mafia by me won the vote, but the setup I'm working on has expanded in scope and grown more complicated than I first thought, and I need more time to develop and balance it. I don't want to host a game that I'm not sure will go well, so I'm postponing it to Mafia 76. That leaves us with two options tied at 7 votes. As you can see from the screenshot, I intentionally did not place a vote on any of the top options since I would participate regardless of which option won. The tie does have to be broken somehow, so I will place my vote on the Fate Egg setup, which will be hosted by rob. Signups will begin today.

As for Who's Online, it's split pretty evenly between those who want some sort of restriction and those who don't. Because it is a tool that can be used to gather information outside of the thread itself, and it's main function of seeing who is online can be done in the thread and on player profiles, Who's Online will be unrestricted during the more fun-oriented setups such as the Fate Egg mafia, but will be banned during more serious setups. Obviously this will be difficult to enforce, but I'll put my faith in the honor system.

The data in the timezone poll will not be used to force hosts to set the deadline within certain times, but it will be used as a helpful reference when making that decision.

And finally, congratulations to TheonlyrealBeef for winning the best player poll! You definitely deserve it for your performance this game.
