Philosophy Mafia, woo~

All right, guys, I modded a mini normal, so you can check that out if you want. Otherwise, the Vanilla Townies forum is where I have modded many games (as Turing Machine) that actually had flavor, if you're interested in seeing what a game modded by me is like. Off the top of my head, I've done The Legend of Zelda Mafia, James Bond Mafia, and Classic Rock Mafia there. I care about the mechanics and flavor. I care about balance. I think I mod a pretty good game, and I certainly put enough thought and work into the setups to justify this opinion.

How can I introduce Philosophy Mafia without spoiling anything? Hm. Imagine a possible world (lolmodalsemantics) where all the famous philosophers we had in this world were contemporaries. In fact, a good number of them happened to teach at the same university! Wouldn't that just be cra-zay?

My hope is that it is, in fact, crazy.

What sort of flavour knowledge is required?

Nothing that can't be Googled. I'd say you could use the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, but the knowledge you'd get from that would be too sophisticated to matter. The roles are mafia roles, and the game is a mafia game; it's not a philosophical treatise shoehorned into a mafia game.

I noticed you were currently modding an open game. You cannot /in to mod in the mini theme list until that game finishes.

So, we can mod a Large game and an Open simultaneously, or a Large and a mini simultaneously, but not a Mini and an Open?

What sense does this make?

I mean, it's in my first post. It's in the "mini" genre

Just dropping a note to say -

All 9 current sign-ups for iPod Mafia meet the requirements and are good to go.

4 more and we can get this going. Hop to it people :D
