Sully's up to his old tricks again...

Alrighty, so I came up with an idea for a new experimental mafia. Not sure what I'm going to call it officially, but for now I'm calling it "Two Truths and a Lie Mafia" (after the icebreaker game, "Two Truths and a Lie").

The concept of it is scenes and role PMs will include exactly one lie. As far as night actions go, I'm thinking about making it so one action is a "lie" per night (cops would receive opposite results, kills would protect, protections would kill, etc. and each person can only have one "lie" action), but if you guys think it's overkill, I might just shape the roles to fit the flavor of the concept.

Thoughts? It seems there are a fair amount of games going, so I might hold off a little bit before posting a game thread.

Sounds like a bastard mod game, but since you announce the presence of the lie already, that shouldn't be a problem. I might play.

I'd have to ask, though: is it clear which three parts of a scene or PM include the two truths and a lie, or would players have to figure that out for themselves as well?

Sounds awesome, glad to see you again Victor.

I was thinking about doing some sort of anti-role game myself awhile back; I quickly lost my train of thought and ended up making Two-Sides Mafia.

I'd try to make it as clear as possible which three statements are up for consideration. And I suppose I didn't specify, but yes, everyone would know about the 'meta', or whatever you want to call it, ahead of time.

Thanks, /! I'm open to having a co-mod and balance-checker if you're up for it.

That sounds like an awesome concept! I would totally play.

And a bit bummed that I missed out on Slash's Two Sides Mafia. That sounds like a really fun game as well.

Sure, I'd be glad to if you need one.

Welcome back you two.

I'm not sure if I'd play, but the idea sounds interesting. Could be a bit OP for mafia I think depending on what actions are faked.

That'd be great! I'll PM you sometime later when I have a loose set-up.

True enough. I'm sure / and I will adjust accordingly.
