EB Mafia

[Tiger15]

@tj_PE is there a deserted island or leper colony in animal crossing we can exhile mafia to? 

Well, if MP is mafia, she hasn't given up, so it feels wrong to pull a fast forward. 
(Or vice versa if JOAT claim was wrong, and MP is telling the truth and I'm mafia, then I haven't given up, and it feels wrong to pull a fast forward.)

(6/5)

Agreed. Assuming we found all 3 mafia, it would be up to the mafia to decide that we've found them and give up or to decide to keep playing and tell lies to try to win. If we haven't found all 3 mafia, of course they wouldn't decide to do that.

There's tarantula/scorpion island? 

My son spends a lot of time there. Tarantulas and scorpions sell for a lot of bells, so he goes farm them, usually 30+ at a time.

@MadamPirate PE do you think tarantula/scorpion island is an appropriate place for people like you?

(Also, holy crap, I didn't know AC was that brutal? Why is there a Tarantula/Scorpion island. Are they still cute?)

If you build a trap it's easy.

The Chateau d'If.

They're cute-ish but kinda scary. If they bite you, you pass out and wake up at the dock. But they're also worth TONS of cash.

I haven't decided how active I'm going to be next week on the thread. I can't talk discuss the tourney at all while I'm playing. So I don't know if it's safer if I avoid this thread or not?

The round I'm playing in has 48/24 days. In other words, the "daytime phase" lasts 48 hours, and the "nighttime phase" (where no posting is allowed) is 24 hours. So there is a lot of down time! 72 hours in between action is a long time. And this round could last 2-3 weeks! I can probably handle two games at once.  I'm inclined to keep playing here. Or maybe I mod during the tournament instead since it's much less work.

@JayKay PE and @squaretaper LIT AF PE you need to meet quota.

.... Or maybe I mod during the tournament instead since it's much less work.

Question for the mods of the tournament rules. How much work is it to keep up with the post count? Seems like a pain in the butt.

If so, would you want to go back to "our" rules? (which I find more fun!)

it's annoying AF

 

[tj_PE]

also feels like pulling teeth and v frustrating to remind people of all of the things

 

[tj_PE]

i apologize if i've ever been too demanding of a mod

 

[RBHeadge PE]

I think we have a group need to have a discussion on which rules we want to run going forward. It doesn't even need to be as simple as EB-traditional vs Tourney Season 7. It could be a hybrid or something new entirely.

What I will say is that keeping up with post counts is a hassle for everyone involved. The point is to get people to talk about the game so others have a chance to use social deduction or deception. But so many players come in and spam five posts quickly that it sort of defeats the intent.

I like the added challenge of not using PMs but we can't keep up this style of game-play indefinitely.

 

[tj_PE]

alright, i have some work to get done on a deadline going out EOD today. can y'all help out if vote tallies get cray please. i won't be back til ~5

Moding with EB rules is so much easier.
