[Game] Mafia Community Event - Harry Potter and The Order of Mafia #32
- Thread starter Johan3113
- Start date
Doesn't work like that. Communities do not rise and fall on the basis of one person. Everyone involved, especially regulars, are culpable to some extent. Your activity has consistently been strong so if anything you're one of the least responsible. Not going to name names, but I think some people could stand to look at their effort values in recent games and rethink the effect they're having on the community.

The bystander can be just as bad as the bully in some scenarios. That is why we are always told to stand up for people who are being bullied. Also cause bullying is wrong. In this case, there isn't really a bully, but there are bystanders. I am one of them. I didn't do anything about the issue. Therefore, I am just as much in the wrong as anyone else. I think more so because everyone else has been here doing great things with each other and I haven't been here and haven't done anything like that.
You got a point but still...those with power ergo AL, johan bear the weight the most. You will always be a bystander in some scenarios. And you'd wish to have more power in a bystanding situation...I also had no influence in this, even if I was the person who initiated all this "community event" thing.
We will grow stronger from this since its seemingly a normal occurence in mafia communities. Some communities receive the heights other receive a low sometimes. We can be happy we had this crazy height and met many new people including you. In the end we are back to where we started and in long term nothing changed. We played awesome 8-10 player games before and it will happen again and they will be awesome.
You could probably stand to be less harsh on yourself. Don't get me wrong, it's great that you want to push yourself further to get more out of this game, but you need others around you to help out too. Honestly, if more players shared your mindset and zest for the game, we'd be having no issues at all, and would be thriving.

i don't know what happened but the setup was pretty nice and i think it has a lot of hype potential
could be some balancing issues here and there but the dorms and spells are a nice touch
the only thing I'd have some advice on is that the potion crafting should've been a bit more clear. The description is that "players will have the option to craft potions as they progress through the game"
which to me it implies that we're going to be aware of when we can craft them and it's based on a level up system like the spells / we can only craft them at some point.
so the wording wasn't really clear there, but maybe I got it wrong and the others were aware of it, but I'm saying it just in case there's other people like me who could use a bit more clarity

I wanted to play a real day to talk about the spellings but i had no chance.
Whomever killed me, it was a bad choice, hope in future games they will think better at who deserve a n1 kill.
I tried to talk in the dorm chat but it was almost inactive, i don't even know who was scum there..
Like no one had the curiosity to solve the game..

Regardless how this went i hope next one will be better
General gist of the game
Game was designed to be more interactive socially and bind players together to focus on teamwork rather than individual skill. Mafia was consisted of 5 players but they had only 1 kill per night to prevent snowball. For Mafia to win they had to go undercover. Use 1 kill per night and then focus on using abilities to ease their time going forward until they even out the balance of power. Mafia did manage this nicely if I may say. They had a good teamwork and communication and they played just like I envisioned they should
Serial Killer made one mistake and that's not using spellcrafting. SK started at lvl 2 and was able to craft spells and items. I hoped they first spell you would make will be NK that avoids detection considering Avengesium being lvl 1 spell. In the end it was Avengesium that caught you
Town also made mistakes. Michelle was killed N1 by another townie for whatever reason. Activity wasn't there and in the end it crumbled
Dormitory system was designed to offer a new level to the game where players use their ideas from the day and transfer them to the night. Mafia was to use to Dormitory system to ruin plans wheres town was supposed to use Dormitory to prevent that
I do apologize on my mistakes, maybe i should have explain some features more elaborately. For that i am sorry
But as the game went on and the activity sank so did my passion to host this and for that i am sorry too

I killed you, you seemed different to me that evening, so I took a shot
Ahhhhh, damn. I had no clue who was scum due to inactivity. I was only sure @Rej wasn't
@TheAncientCenturion you bastard

Different than what, and how? Did you check any old game here to see how i play? This is my homesite, here I play different than in any other site,I killed you, you seemed different to me that evening, so I took a shot

You should not kill people when you have power as town just because you have a spell or a bullet, you have to check your reasons, if anything if you suspect someone you roleblock or choose to investigate - you had a spell for this iirc.
In this way you killed an active townie, and this was not a problem for me but it was for the game.
I am looking forward to play again with you, don't forget that town is the first town's enemy because is not informed.
Did you forget we played together multiple times?
That... Is exactly what a vig is for though. And this game mechanic is set up so that anyone could be a vig, and I'd use that opportunity every time.
It wasn't really a problem for the game, because inactivity was what buried it
But I guess that can't be helped for small forums now, best we can do is organise games more seldom.Aye, looking forward to fun games here - that is why I signed up - I hope the activity gets better.
