I want to start a Comedy Central Mafia. Not sure if many people would play

[Noah]

Never mind, EWB is cutting off my posts again.

I am confused. Where did Ruki's 10 Mafia go? It's not in the archives or anywhere near the Mafia Cube.

And I played a totally shitty game in that one. Apologies to Pesci for waterlogging him down at times.

That's alright, you did better than adameast and MPH by actually surviving past Day 2

I didn't even survive past hour one! I was a bomb right? I would've loved to take Sousa out with that...

What would the Comedy Central Mafia entail? Shows, i.e. "(Player) has died. He was The Colbert Report, Individually-Aligned Parody Of Right-Wing Nutjob Punditry", or characters on shows, i.e. "DJ Ice has died, he was Kenny, Comedy Central-Aligned OH MY GOD, HE ALWAYS DIES!"

EDIT: I meant to say "Satire", not "Parody".

What are you talking about? I haven't run a game since my Zombie Spectacular. My 10th game is going to be Anime Mafia 3 :/

IT would be like Characters. Eg. Kenny

Interesting. Well, as long as you vary it up enough - yannow, using comedians as well as cartoon characters, including people from the Daily Show and the Colbert Report - I say go for it!

I hated Zombie Spectacular. I died Day 1.

Also, if Anime 3 is your tenth game, then I'd rather you have another go at Ruki 10. Unless the game includes characters from Ranma 1/2, Rave and Slam Dunk. You know, real animes...

Ever been a South Park Mafia. I might do a South Park meets Family Guy mafia

Oh and how to people decide who dies at the very start of the game?

[oldskool]

Usually I advocate going for some middle-of-the-road player, because that usually gets towns off on the "who the hell could the mafia be if they thought it was best to take out ____ over ____, ____ & ____?" road that leads to nowhere. If you take out somebody good then that person is pissed at you & your group, if you take out somebody new you feel bad that one of their first experiences in playing the game is getting removed from play.

If Pesci's scum, I die immediately. It's an unwritten rule or something

[Pesci]

No I'm sure I have it written somewhere.

[Jimmy]

I take out MPH. Or if I'm town, I investigate him.

That's it, really.

[Pesci]

I just tend to go for the most vocal guys, then confirmed townies and people with claimed abilties.

You're why townies lurk!

[Pesci]

I just go defensive and play for the draw as scum

[Forky]

I just wanted to apologize to RW for going kind of AWOL on his game. I really wanted to play that but ended up being offline for quite awhile there. Again, sorry for that.

[Ruki]

Say sorry to me too, you jerk

[oldskool]

Forky should apologize to everyone in Ruki's game, methinks

Only the active people...which is like...5 people.
