Mafia Round 2 Discussion
Re: Mafia Round 2 Discussion
Just a brainstorm.......I don't much like the idea of extra lives either. Maybe we could each play 2 different characters to "enhance" game play?
And another spooky background setting would be a subspace relay station. We find the only shuttle sabotaged, and instead of a founder, can have a surgically altered "trek" baddie, like a Cardie or Romulan.
Just a couple of random thoughts.
Also, I may be ready to take a turn moderating after Teaos. I'd like to play one more game to work out the kinks.

Re: Mafia Round 2 Discussion
Good ideas. The multiple lives is a bad idea since we have so many interested folks. It seems to complicate things quite a bit. Glad to see others interested in moderating. It's fun and educational - you get to see who's posturing and who's just confused all to hell.

Re: Mafia Round 2 Discussion
After a couple more, i might be interested in moderating, just how do you select who is what?
Re: Mafia Round 2 Discussion
Some sort of randomization. Using dice or playing cards is a safe bet. There are dice-rolling programs online.
First I assigned everyone a number between 1-8. Then I rolled an 8-sided die for each role; Founder 1, Founder 2, scientist, and the rest are innocents. There were only 7 people so I rerolled if I got an 8.

Another interesting backdrop would have all of us trapped in a holodeck, wouldn't you say?

I liked the surgically altered Romulan/cardie idea.

Re: Mafia Round 2 Discussion
I'd like to do this again, but with school starting and my crazy fall schedule I probably won't be able to. Maybe round 3.

Re: Mafia Round 2 Discussion
I'm back to school, but i normally have a little time in the evening. But my GCSE's will be starting in this year/next year so my time will get less available.
Re: Mafia Round 2 Discussion
Don't forget guys. I'm usually good to go M-F, but Sat and Sun are hard for me. But still looking forward to the next "round"

So: Teaos is running the next round. I'm in for that; role call time!

I'd like to play this time as well.

Re: Mafia Round 2 Discussion
