Ideally I'd like to have all requests by the end of the 28th so I can use a day to balance and patch roles out. 5 days should be plenty of time. No rush.

Ask Strike if he can restore the past two. I don't plan on deleting more of my games.

Here's the player data from the previous CYORs to assist you in making your roles: CYOR I Data CYOR II Data

This turned out to be pretty fun and a good attempt at balance for the first time being hosted. Thanks for hearing my concerns and making real-time adjustments based on feedback, Vert. I would for sure sign up for a 'Episode II' of this setup, but I'd expect it to be better than how George Lucas handles things! My sensitivity to game balance in this one was based on the APB VI fiasco and my alignment swap, I suppose. I didn't get to play as town enough to know just how difficult it would be to find Sith, and then from a Sith perspective upon first joining, it didn't seem like we had much to work with outside of being powerful in duels, which of course I wasn't. I prefer the mind games.

INTRO I believe we're all ready for a nice relaxing break after Verti60's excellently stunning Star Wars Mafia. This game, CYOR Mafia III, will start on Thursday, March 1st, at approximately 10PM GMT/UTC, which is the usual game start/hammer time. Game start date and time are subject to change based on signed player count and role PMs received. For those of you who are new to Choose Your Own Role style mafia games, here’s a short explanation: at its core, CYOR is a standard mafia game. Town attempts to eliminate all hostile elements (mafia and third party). Mafia attempts to eliminate players and outnumber the other factions. The third party has specific win conditions based on their role, and the neutral faction is similar; neutral faction players, however, are not considered hostile. If you sign up for this game, you will send me a PM with your role request. You can customize your role as much as you see fit, and I will do my best to honor your request. Here’s an example of a role request: The more information you include in your request, the more accurate your final role will be. Here’s a template to help guide your request, although it’s not necessary to use when sending me your PM: You can request a specific alignment, but I can’t guarantee it will be the alignment you receive. Also, if you weren’t present for CYOR II, I’ll mention it again: please do not request overpowered roles! Keep game balance in mind. It’s much easier on the GM—and yourself—if you keep your role realistic for a mafia game. CHANGES FROM PAST CYOR GAMES CYOR I introduced item mechanics into the game. Items could be passed around and used by any player, regardless of role. Typically, each item type would have an origin. For example, before any Vials of Synthetic Watermelon could be used, they would have to be created by Black Science Man and passed by that role. In CYOR II, items were absent from the game due to how quickly the game was put together. In CYOR III, items are not only making a comeback, but they’re going to have a more powerful presence. Usually, if a player was killed before they could create or pass their items around, then the game would never see those items used. It was an unfortunate scenario in CYOR I, and so this time if “origin roles” exist, then they will start the game with one or more of the items they create. As with roles, if you choose to request an item in the game, please try to keep it realistic and relatively balanced. Requests for “magic potions that instantly discover mafia” will not be honored! Remember, requesting an item is optional! Co-Moderator If you’ve never hosted a mafia game or want to see some behind-the-scenes work, I’ll be accepting one co-moderator for this game. It’s entirely optional, but a great way to get some “GM Cred” without having hosted a game before. You’ll essentially see everything about the game and how I resolve actions, and I’ll sometimes ask you to check my work to ensure accuracy. Note: Applying for this role means you will not be able to join the game! Note 2: I'll most likely need a co-mod to assist me during the weekend of March 17-19, when I'll be moving out of my current apartment.

Since there's an overwhelming majority for traditional CYOR (7-4), I'm going to go ahead and close the poll. Sign up thread will go up soon.

That'll be this weekend right? I'll be available for most of Saturday, but not Saturday night or Sunday, so I might sit out on it depending on rules and when duels happen. In the meantime, it looks like traditional CYOR won the poll (still have till Friday to confirm), so you guys can start PMing me your role choices and whatnot if you have them in mind already. Edit: Sorry if this sounds like I'm rushing to host, I just have a relatively hectic few days coming up but want to potentially start the game on March 2.

Oh, I guess I was expecting a game end post.

It's been 2 hours. The game still hasn't ended?

She already said no bud.

As if you have a choice.

DAMMIT VOE

You're all terrible with selecting music to go with tense situations.

Alternatively, I could merge the concepts together, and likely end up with something like... Nah.

Uhm...

Scummy edit: Voe couldn't do anything since he dueled yesterday. Hint hint for what we ghosts are and aren't capable of. Not that it matters much now. Sunflower hurry up and vote so Verti60 can hammer and one of you can get the first shot against Voe and maybe end this ridiculous game in the next hour.

Voe isn't the brightest bulb remember...you know, because Voe's a dumbass.

Poll will close on Friday. In the event of a tie, I'll default to classic CYOR.

I made edits to the demo truck textures using GIMP with no issues. You do know that when you export a file from GIMP, you can save your work as a .xcf as well to preserve the layers and open the .xcf if you need to make corrections?
