Elements Mafia 71 - by Submachine

If unrestricted, sure. But a good rule can allow some PMs while preventing mass roleclaims.

[Linkcat]

Limited PMs are a separate issue from PMs in general.

Srsly? Forum pms are so fun.

We should host a game of survivor then ^^ but yeah, what link said. PMs are fun but they break the game setup and/or make the main chat empty.

Anyone remember the Civy Centrals of old?

Honestly, if I were to change anything, it would be to shorten the AFK modkill requirement. Last game we had SO MANY inactive townies, and that actively hurt us. These guys would pop in once every 3 phases and say a lil something, and go AWOL again. This might sound a bit callous, but if you know you don't have the time to commit to this, please don't sign up... :/

I don't disagree with you, but emergencies can happen, especially to those with jobs, children, etc. Instead of the "no posting for 3 consecutive phases" thing, we could rewrite it to "no posting in X phases total, in any order". Then it would only punish people who are consistently not posting.

I would also change this rule to not count Night phases, because Night phases are supposed to be when people use their abilties, not when they discuss their important agendas. Furthermore, by talking at Night, people just attract the Nightkill to themselves. These reasons also indicate that Night phases should not be longer than 24 hours.

TL;DR! Here is my suggestion:

- Night phases are 24 hour long. + Only those players are modkilled who haven't talked for any three Day phases.

Some Players summed up in one sentence:
MasterWalks: "Espithel is mafia"
Iancudorinmarian: "Wait, what? "
Ddevans96: "Im ok with anyone getting lynched so long as it's not me"
RootRanger: "I buss my entire team, so please lynch shock already"
Ginyu:"Im graboid seraph"
d2d:"Chirp, chirp"
Mathman101:"."
InsignificantWeeaboo:"I roleblocked x and also some other ability just cuz" tbf it took me way too long to realize how terrible warden was myself

Edit: (please no modkill )
Moehrpi: "ill make an analysis tomor-argh"
Mobian: "Dont worry Ill roleclaim anyways"

[MasterWalks]

I hated town...

[Submachine]

Not even inactive Town, just Town that was not online at the deadline and couldn’t defend themselves.

It was a moral dilemma what to do in case two of your townreads are the top two lynches. In that case, should you REALLY avoid a No Lynch by voting on one of them?

[Linkcat]

Sub, you need to break the tie on the poll.

[Submachine]

Ginyu, kaempfer and Linkcat are tied for first place with 9 votes each. All were worthy players, but I have to choose one of them.

Third place I have to give to Ginyu. His strategy was to hide in the shadows while others took the heat. While an excellent strategy, staying low takes less effort than going in the thick of it and staying alive.

Then we have kaempfer and Linkcat, the best player of Town and the true orchestrator of Mafia. It's a tough choice, but I gotta give this to Linkcat. He not only manipulated the majority of Town for half of the game, but his targets were on point when it mattered and got all information for Mafia before he got lynched, eventually making Town think that Mafia has a Psion.

Well played, all three. But especially congratulations to Linkcat.
Now, if only you were not so adamant about 48 hour long Night phases...
