[TOWN WINS] Third Anniversary Fanfic Mafia - Game Thread

[DawningWinds]

I think the two smaller games is a pretty good idea, to give everyone a chance to play. I don't know how I feel about the priority signups; I would be concerned about newer players would still set themselves at lower priorities out of concern for "taking" spots from more invested players...? I think making sure everyone can play seems the best way make sure nobody has to worry about that.

GG y'all. :D A shame I couldn't mess with you for long, but I had a good time regardless!

Concurrent games sound good, as does random assignment to them.

(As for playing other people's characters, sometimes I struggle to play my own, lol. So I'd have to sit that sort of game out. :B Still, could be fun to spectate!)

I would absolutely love an anonymous game, sounds like a whole new level of fun! Concurrent games or random assignments aren’t a bad idea. I personally don’t see an issue with having player caps as they are currently being used, but I’m not opposed to mixing it up a bit, either.

GG everyone! I’m honestly really impressed with scumteam for how well they played!

Personally I don’t think I’d be able to join a game where you play other people’s characters. Anonymized out of character could be sort of neat to try but I can’t help but think people would be kind of recognizable unless everyone like, actively tried to mask who they are…?

Trying to encourage more new players could definitely be good - two games sounds like a neat idea (maybe one could be more newbie-oriented?).

Even if we anonymised ourselves we can't post at different times than usual as limited by timezone and workdays. "I wonder if Anon 5 is Jackie bc they're never online at daystart" type stuff. I'd feel profoundly nerfed if there was a mechanical disincentive to get identified lol

We were thinking the anonymous game would not involve RP, no. And there were plans to have designated hours for thread open decided ahead of time based on player schedules.

Would love to get more newbies involved! Either through a newbie game or a hydra game where newbies get paired with veterans.

I’m intrigued by the possibility of day start and wouldn’t be opposed to trying it.

Good game everyone! Scumteam played really well with a rough hand, and the death flavor was fantastic.

Hey, a short no-rp anon game sounds like a fantastic idea. I'd love to get in on that!
