Vanilla Flavor Mafia Basically ripping this completely from another place, but I’ve always wanted to host one and I’m wondering on your guys thoughts about it: Essentially, it’s the below
Normally flavor isn’t supposed to influence the game, but in this, it would. The clues would be super subtle, and I feel as a community we’re close-knit enough for a game like this to work. They’d never be insanely obvious, but could be stuff like the following: Players alive: Aviana Hyp-R Shockmuffin Letter Magellan Dorkie Corkie Bloodrayne03 Snakewrangler PSN Report flavor: Stormbuster was found dead, A venom had seeped into his bloodstream, causing his body to undergo shock. There’s three obvious references there – Shock, PSN and Blood. Under the surface, venom could relate to snakes, and Magellan/Corie both have poison types as their avatar. Mafia member it’s referring to? Note how not anyone is effectively cleared either – the flavor doesn’t have to refer to anyone. This is only a tiny example and the ones in a real game would be much better, but eh. Just, want some feedback to see if people would be up for this. These games can be more of a mindflex than a scumhunt exercise, but they’re interesting and allow the host to be a little interactive. If I did run it I’d like a moderator/external person to be able to run through things with. But yeaaaah. If this is something that appeals to you lemme know and I’ll host it soon. |

I like it and think it could work, but there's have to be something that prevents it from becoming a discussion game-unless that's your intention. |

The point of discussion is that it should happen in every game Apart from that, this sounds really interesting! It'll probably be a nightmare for you to find discreet ways of putting tiny hints in the flavour, but that should be fun to try and decipher! |

It's a pretty cool idea that's been floating around for a while. Seeing it in action would be fun. But how would you figure out who gets put into the flavour? |

Usually (from what ive seen previously) it's an RNG'd mafia member. It can kinda be anyone from mafia though, as long as it's subtle/vague enough. It's why I'd kiiinda want to joint-host (or have someone on hand to talk to about). I'd imagine the lynches would be semi-random based on suspicion via flavor. I'll look at a few examples before hosting it, glad this has sufficient enough interest so far though. |

Jessi was actually talking about a game where the flavor had some meaning to it a while back. She'll probably be interested in this when she gets off work. |

I would join, but being named Letter in a flavor game won't bode well, so I'd be willing to help host if you need that. |

That actually sounds really fun. We'd have to analyze every little part of the flavor, which sounds like something I might be good at. |

The Story Teller The Story Teller is the host. The Story Teller is required to post Flavor of the nights deaths, and give clues as to the identity of the killers. The clues can be taken from any accessible place on the forum – For example the Member Photo Thread, skype thread, Username, Avatar, Signature, Old posts/topics/games, but they will all be accessible to everybody. The original example I showed was pretty bad, I apologize, I was rushing home and kinda wanted to get it finished: Here’s a slightly better one (again, still not perfect, it’s kinda hard to gauge writing flavor without actually having the game running). Night 1 Flavor Example There's a hopefully better example. I'm more pleased with that, definitely. Also a cookie for the first person (besides corie who already knows >_>) who guesses the mafia in that. |

That guy airborne was one of the best characters I've ever seen. Was the murderer Corie? If its not porygon, I don't see any other options. EDIT: actually, I'm gonna guess blood just because of his signature. Edited by Whitey, Jan 21 2014, 01:08 PM.

No fair, not everyone can respond immediately. :C Um... leaning towards Blood, because of the eyes and his body being "bloodied". There's a strong werewolf theme, but it doesn't really match how Draco died, so I'm not sure what to make of it. |

Everyone jacking my guess up in hurr Also, it may be difficult to write flavor about people that aren't very well known. Like myself-the only people that know stuff about my likes and dislikes are panda and shini. The much newer players like beams and porygon would probably be even harder to find.

This flavor reminds me of Welcome Game 6's flavor (at the beginning at least), maybe the Scumhunt Games too. I'd definitely join. |

Blood was indeed one of the mafia, so cookies for everyone who guessed that (except for jessi hurrhurrhurr) I’m glad you all seemed to like it. Again, for the first night in a real game the mafia shouldn’t be as obvious, I just needed an example that people could realistically guess, but at the same time be thrown off by (Porygon, for example) In a real game, Blood could indeed push for a lynch on Porygon, and Porygon could counter it. There's other suspicions around there too, Shadow's flinching at the fire, Corie's scuffed hands, Airborne's inherent defensiveness, Shini's noticing him wondering off. The idea's to start discussion about it and see what happens. I'm thinking of starting numbers of like 10/4, if anyone has suggestions for that. |

It talks about a bloodied body. "Don't fear the imposing figure in the glowing armor in front of you. Fear the thousands of glowing eyes behind him." Blood's signature. They're supposed to be subtle, not necessarily the first thing that comes to mind. Also seems like a lot of people saw Blood as an option so yeah, super good flavor, Sjay. |
