Dadd @ 4/5/2016 21:51 Sorry, I don't know everyone that well Bad charactisation can be just as funny as a spot-on impression.

But almost always isn't

one more tima

So I want to do my feudal Japan setr up at some point with FE and GHBers, since it will be more fun with more people in it. It's a game with pretty much all customized roles (so you can't just go "hey, i know what ninja does!"), many of the roles involve WIFOM decisions on night actions, there is a lot of recruiting, the possibility of surprise attacks, a mercenary ninja that is "hired" during the game, and even the "VTs" have optional night actions.

I ran it at GLB but the smaller group meant people kept failing their recruitments as they all tried to recruit the same people. :rofl: They also gave themselves away when hiring the ninja.

I have a number of roles I didn't use in the original, due to the smaller number of players, and a few other ones I may have thought up since then. This will also keep the GHBers on their toes since there will be plenty of new things they won't expect.

The issue: Hosting here wouldn't work well with the amount of masking required to get all the PFs set up. I also know that setting up an additional forum somewhere is hard to get people to remember to go there- it's tough existing in multiple forums. I've got the PFs all set up at GLB, but that would mean FEers would have to sign up over there (which can be entertaining in it self) but then I'd have to remind FEers to head over there- it leads to the "other forum" issue but only for FE folks.

Thoughts?

No!!!!!!!!!

Game sounds fun tho (:

I think you'd have activity issues from many of us if you hosted over there tbh, can't speak for everyone though. It's just more about checking another forum regularly

You could host it on an ndim board like ATTWS? Then PF's become easier

It does make it equally painful for everyone! lol

I know that when you set up something fun it is frustrating for inactivity (I can't imagine with all the set up you guys did for ATTWS only to have as many inactives as you did).

So I'm just looking for a happy medium to avoid inactivity issues by making it as convenient as possible. :)

Actually I'd kinda like to just so JC can ironically bitch and whine some more about FE'ers flooding into GLB

It sounds fun Vlady! Just a note, there has been an off-site recruiting game (The Gangs Of New York) before and it didn't really work out. There was just too much inactivity, idk to what extent the set up was to blame for that.

Yeah, TGoNY was originally run at GLB and worked out well as a mindfuck game. I understand inactivity kills this, so that's why I'm trying to think of the best way to avoid this sort of inactivity.

The game itself isn't even a classic "scum hunt", since there is no town and everyone has individual win conditions to a certain extent, conditions that may change throughout the game. So it makes things a bit different (and, as noted above, many of the night actions lead to a WIFOM type situation- for example, the "recruiters" can recruit in a night, but if they do, they can't be protected that night either).

Whatever you do, don't let primate play in your game, Vlady. His head is already too big.

He wouldn't get ninja again, unless it was random.

Are we talking for running a game, or who you're going to do? If it's the latter, ME!!! :love:
