Bionicle Mafia 23: Red Sea

[Voxumo]

Going to keep my vote on Boat six. Don't exactly like the thought of lynching folks just because they are inactive, because we never know what the circumstances could be. I know I would be slightly upset if I came back after internet being out for sometime and saw I had died for inactivity.
But fully supports the lynching of the inactive boat, since evidence does point against them.

So you'd rather kill off all of the active players and have the game slowly die from inactivity?

 

right because that's not a problem we have ever suffered from

 

nope

 

not at all

If that happens, I'll engage phase 3-C

No, more like if they are still inactive at the end you just kill them off with the almighty host powers... 

[Trijhak]

Voxumo, there's one problem with that.

 

We won't reach the end if the players are inactive, because there'll be nobody voting, nobody killing, nobody doing anything. The game will become stagnant. And nobody will win the game. We'll all lose to our common foe: Inactivity. 

[Hitoshura]

honestly there's nothing better than waiting months for the game to slowly die /sarcasm

I put myself forth to take the roles of any inactive players. =P

If there's no reason to vote for them other than they're inactive, I'd like to keep my vote on the active people that actually seem suspicious.

(I also don't get why I'm supposedly inactive; as I just voted in this round)

[Voltex]

if you want a game to die through inactivity, then by all means, be my guest.

Out of curiousity, when has that happened? I can't recall a game (that I've played, at least) in which it died from innactivity (of players, not the host)

[Blessed Blade]

It's happened quite a number of times. The mafians get the brilliant idea to kill off all the active players, and leave all the inactive ones, and everyone just sits around waiting.

 

While technically they could go for a win by default that way... they also tend too go inactive too right after. >>

Let's see here

 

Mafia V ended because the host went inactive

Mafia VII ended due to inactivity + hacking data loss

Mafia XII ended because the host (and players?) went inactive

Mafia XV ended because the host went inactive

Mafia XVII ended because the host went inactive

 

Requiem of the Dead ended because players went inactive (followed by the host)

Damage Control ended because players + host went inactive

 

Both Ninjago Mafia games ended due to combined player and host inactivity

 

---

 

So hosts going inactive is a more common killer of games than players going inactive (obviously), but that's because, while the mafia playerbase often makes the most stupid decisions as a collective, they usually retain enough common sense to realize that killing every active player is an excellent way to make sure that the game grinds to a halt before it can finish.

[Blessed Blade]

I will admit, however, that if some people stay active(which this mafia isn't proving to do), they could theoretically force the game into a win by default via killing the actives and relying on the vote timer...

 

But that would require too perfect a set of circumstances, and if it goes down to an inactive mafian left, then they just killed the game.

[Daniel the Finlander]

ALRIGHT ALRIGHT I GET IT I GET IT

 

SWITCHING VOTE FROM SEVEN TO EIGHT aka THE INACTIVE BOAT

 

ARE YOU HAPPY NOW

[Burnmad]

Big City ended due solely to player inactivity, for one.

 

*Snaps fingers*

[Manducus]

Guys, remember what happened to Dead Sea?

 

I don't either.

[Kohrak Kal17]

I agree with Burnmad's boat analysis and will vote Boat 7.

 

--KK17

[Portalfig]

(also the mafioso took forever to send in their kills)

 

(which is another thing that seems to imply that at least some of them are inactive)

[Not Quite Dead]

You best start believin' in ghost mafia.

 

Yer in one.

[Burnmad]

I'm... I'm in a ghost mafia!?
 

Ewwww.... *Steps to the side*

Alright. I was just wondering because you made it sound like games dying from player innactivity (rather than the host) happened a lot.

[Voltex]

True.

 

what a monster

it doesn't.

 

because, like I pointed out, the players are usually smart enough to realize that it's a stupid idea.

[Trijhak]

You vastly overestimate our collective intelligence, Voltex.

no, I really don't

 

after I hosted XVIII I knew there was no return from the utter incompetency that the village had displayed. this is just the natural continuation of that trend.

 

an unfortunate one, because now the idiocy is leading to "let's make sure the games become inactive because wow what a great idea everybody"

[Not Quite Dead]

Yeah, this is why #MafiaXXIV is gonna have XXIV hour time limits and somewhere around XXIV players.

 

#mafiabloat

[In Between the Shadows]

The only time the village has been smart was during 'All Hail the Mad King', with no pro-villagers lynched.

We were so good, it was almost scary...

[Burnmad]

To be fair, I was given the names of the first two Pyros by Portal, who wished to eliminate them. After that, though, Chro and I got the whole Mafia legitimately.

There should be a mafia game which involves a time bomb like if something doesnt get done in the game in certain times everyone dies or something

[Portalfig]

Game in which the pro-town roles are known by the Mafia, but are invulnurable (and probably can't vote). However, as the game goes on various events causes them to die. Taking too long, a vote swinging on a mafioso, other special effects or such. Lore would be a 999-esque game(maybe? haven't played it yet =( ), in which the mafia placed the protown into some outside event, while they run amock aboveground. Maybe some sort of outside meta game as well, where the protown roles much solve problems or such. Maybe something else for the villagers?

That's called "Mask of Ultimate Power 2: The Race for the Mask of Time".

 

Really, what Mafia needs is games that run on time, 24 hour rounds, thank you Kaneo. The fact that it isn't required leads to both player and host inactivity and lack of player engagement. This has been established like 5 games ago by now - ever since XXI, most games have bogged or died because the Mafia doesn't respond timely or the host has lag. 

[Seaborgium]

I vote 5. Vuxomo is almost certainly a killer.

[Voxumo]

If I was killer, do you not think I would have sent my kills in rather quickly? Afterall all it would take is for one Mafia to go 'Send person A to kill Person B' for it to take place, as long as no one spoke up against it. You can ask people who've been in mafia with me when I was mafia, I'm very prompt about trying to decide who to kill.

[Burnmad]

Both Killers are dead, Sg

I think he was just referring to Killer in the general sense, not specifically an SK.

[Nato G]

Wouldn't that make us all killers, though? 

[Voltex]

yes

[Lenore]

That is what this game is about.
