Game Concept Thread

The popular forum game that separates the good from the bad, the strong from the weak, and the loose-cannon cops from the slightly schizophrenic. That's all after we figure out who's who, of course.

At least make them something that can talk or make them buffed cult. (Regular cult has a leader that turn someone ever night, if the leader dies, they all die.)
The whole thing about the Zombie role not talking is that they're supposed to seem dead to everyone, which is also why their name still gets struck through. The main (kinda hidden) buff they get is that they get to collaborate with another group and decide kills. That, and Group A + Zombies (if their numbers are high enough) can all collaborate on lynch votes to cause insta-lynches with relative ease...that is, of course, if everyone works together and makes compromises.

How many is "a few" in terms of townspeople that need to be alive in order for Group B to win?

Two or more.
There are 6 townies. If three of them died/got converted, then it'd be 50/50, but if one more died/got converted, that'd be a majority. Meaning the remaining two would be the "few."
Maybe I should change "few" to "two or more" considering this.

EDIT: Clarified what needed to be clarified.

I don't think that people being immune to lynches is something that would be interesting. Being immune to night kills, on the other hand, is fine(probably just me).

The problem with being immune to lynches is that, if everyone tries to lynch you and fails, you're immediately outed as the role/faction that is immune to lynches. It doesn't work as well in practice as one might hope.

Except that can be really useful in determining who is a member of each team, which is vital in faction games. In normal games it's good too since if it's a town role then they can form an alliance (until they're killed the following night phase, which is likely).

Are you saying maia in general or are you agreeing with him?

Depending how you really meant that:
A) I can see how fun it is after one game.
B) Thank you.

I played some different mafia games(something like SC2 mafia, which abused language a ton(yeah I gave up on that because of it), and then Town of Salem). I enjoyed it at first, but it got repetitive(and also getting killed night one(or very early onto the game, I don't think anyone who wanted to play mafia after waiting for so long wants to enjoy getting killed that early))... So yeah. At least we come up with all this random(not entirely "random") things which become pretty unique and interesting. That's one of the fun parts in this version of mafia.

I guess only one person voted my game(thank you to whoever voted on my game, I thought that no one seemed to like it since everything else was voted), so maybe I'll just go on and think of something else.

I personally want Mech's 2hu mafia roles. Just need to polish up the grammar and remove the last names or give everyone else their full names.

You could call the game Scarlet Stained Grounds
