drealmer7: We could try an experiment:

I could run the same game that I am about to run on MS. Players on MS don't know to look here so the game would remain completely closed to them.

Meanwhile, you all would be free to go look at the game as it unfolds on MS and bring whatever knowledge/information or insight from that game to use in the game on here. I know not everyone is inclined to go look on there, but even if a couple did and then it might provide an interesting element to the game. OR, you could all just agree not to go look there and I'd trust that and it'd essentially be closed here too?

otherwise I think I'll have to wait some months to host, as I don't want to run something half-assed and I have nothing else ready enough yet

or:

JMich or dedo could do another game

or lifthrasil's idea
We will not be trying this experiment.

OK. If the experiment is vetoed I see three options:

Re-Runs:
I could re-run the Shodan Cult game without much tweaks (apart from flavour). Depending on the number of players there might be a neutral role added.

I could also re-run the STALKER jumping PR thingie with a different flavour.

These two I could run out of the box without the need for a co-mod. Though I still would welcome one for organization purposes.

We could also try our hands at a two cult game. Don't know whether that can work and here I definitely would need input from a co-mod. This one would be a flavour successor to the last SHODAN game. Inspired by System Shock 2, with both The Many and SHODAN trying to establish a cult and some poor humans trying to survive.
I would love another SHODAN game. What is this STALKER game?

That was game #26, which was set in the Zone of the STALKER game. It had the quirk, that each Emission (which functioned as night) changed some of the powers.

It was my first game, and quite fun.

Neat. I vote Stalker then. I have played a few games on PC, they were indeed good. Looks fun integrated in Mafia.

Loyalists for life!


That was a good game. I second Dessimu's vote.

Was my second game, but wouldn't know how fun it was, flubbucket killed me N1.
One of my many scum games that one. I think it could have done with a little tweaking as it was a little unfair on us, though obviously going in with the knowledge of the powers evens it out for scum a little.

It was a fun game and a good idea though.

Do you want to play or do you want to co-mod to iron out the last imbalances? Both would be welcome!

I don't have the time for either unfortunately. I'm about to start 6 weeks of hell at work, all the summer festivals come back to back and I'll not have a chance to be involved in anything.
We barely get a chance to sleep most weekends until July...
Ah well. The biggest imbalance came anyhow from a PM flavour mishap. That game was before we adopted the custom of posting the town and scum PMs openly. But I can avoid that weakness now.

There seems some preference for the STALKER flavour. So I'll open a signup thread for that and do the final balancing when I know how many people play. Last time we were 15 and it would be easiest if we can get that again (since I know what the imbalances were). Let's see how many are interested.

And if I am proceeding too quickly and one of the people in front of me in the hosting line want to run a game after all, just say so.

Here we go:

Are these emissions happening only at night?
