The New Set-Up Review Thread

[Faraday]

Hey would anyone take a look at my up-coming (kinda? 9 games time ) mini normal.

Just wouldn't mind a reviewer or 2. I have the role pm's written and everything is set, so I'm looking for feedback pretty much, and to point out anything I may have overlooked.

Help would be appreciated Thanks.

Edit: Thanks SpyreX

Am willing to help out and review any mini normal games too:) Just be sure to get someone else as I'm fairly new at it.

[Faraday]

I can give it a look over, though I'm not that experienced w/ set-up review, so you may want someone else as well, but shoot me a pm if you want.

[Faraday]

Would somebody mind reviewing my House Mini Theme, please?

I can do it, but once again it'd probably be best to get someone more experienced to give it a look over too.

I'm also familair w/ House if that helps/matters.

[Faraday]

Send it my way.

[Faraday]

Looking for a reviwer for a mini theme game.

A Game of Thrones Mafia, based on the first book of the A Song Of Ice And Fire series.

Familiarity with the theme isn't exactly neccessary, although if you are it's an added bonus!


----

Also willing to review any mini-normal games, if anyone needs help.

[Faraday]

How much knowledge of the theme is required? (I'm playing l4d2 atm for the first time, but I don't know a whole lot about it)

[Faraday]

I can do that

[Faraday]

Send me Left 4 dead then if ya want. I know nothing about Weeds, sorry.

[Faraday]

Magnus, pm me if you want it looked over!

[Faraday]

seeking reviewer/someone to chat to about a wild west large theme game I'm thinking about.

I'd be up for going over this with you if you're interested.

cool, thanks. I will have to write it all out though, at least the fundamental parts of the game first. I'll send it through when I'm done.

Doesn't matter. Whenever you're ready.

[Faraday]

^^ I can do both of those if you wish, Cobalt/Zang. Always suggest you get a second opinion and wahtnot but send them over and I'll look at them when I can (cobalt's first since his seems more urgent)

[Faraday]

Faraday and I are looking for a reviewer (or two) for our Large Theme - A song of Ice and Fire game.
Knowledge of the books is not necessary for the review.

This please.

Offering all my love if someone reviews it.

[Faraday]

Thanks to Mykonian/SpyreX.

And there's no rush at all.

[Faraday]

Ya send it my way if ya want.

[Faraday]

I'll take a look over Opensource, Nicol's and Aranneas' games.

Would suggest complex games get a second opinion though, but hit me up I've just got told I've no work this weekend so yeh.

@ Nicol PM is preffered to me, if that's doable?

[Faraday]

Shoot me a Pm and we can work on it into the wee hours of the morning. I'd reccomend getting a second opinion though. Also not that familiar with Fringe, but I have wikipedia.

[Faraday]

I would like the advice of an experienced player who has a strong grasp of game balance and setup design to discuss an idea I have for a future game. It's not a setup review per se (the game is nowhere near ready), just a discussion of some ideas/mechanics I have and how to balance them.

I can do this, but I won't be around for the next see days. If it's not that urgent (and it doesn't sound it) I'll help ya with it, Kdub.

[Faraday]

Need someone to help me balance a 14 player normal set-up (it's going in the theme queue though).

Need this pretty quick (Objection re-roll) so if you could help me out I'd appreciate it.

[Faraday]

I can help with that if you wish @ RHinox.

[Faraday]

Hello good people of Mafiascum!

Myself and Seacore require a reviewer for A Storm Of Swords Mafia. We'd like a 3rd set of eyes just to run over it, just to be sure there's nothing we're missing that's obvious. Theme knowledge isn't neccessary, we've got that covered. Plus people with theme knowledge should pre-in

Thanks in advance (since I know you, yes you) will want to help me!

edit thanks to empking and richardghp.

[Faraday]

One of the mindscrews had more iirc. I had 27 for my first large theme and it filled relatively easy. Still to jump to 45? Wow, I don't think it's do-able. 30 probably is, 32? MAYBE. Still no harm trying.

I'll have a look at it when I'm a bit less busy if you want. Aka next weekend.

[Faraday]

Amrun: Pm it whenever, I may not respond immediately but I'll look over it whenever.

Pappums: I'd think that'd be a mini-theme, but I'm not sure. You'd have to ask the mini normal peoples (Hoopla's one) about it for sure, I think the restrictions were lessened lately but not sure to what degree. I can review your game for balance if you want though, although not sure if the review group do that anyway?

[Faraday]

DH send it over, it'll be next week most likely depending on classes, but okay.

[Faraday]

Hit me up AGM.

[Faraday]

heh.

[Faraday]

Anyone familiar with Doctor Who care to help me design/co-mod a game based on it? PM me if you do! Thank you.

[Faraday]

Hit me up Sera. Willing to give it a go.

[Faraday]

Woah. baby too much scum.

5 scum + SK + lyncher + survivor in a 17? Player game.

The set-up needs a lot of work. Add some VT's, or at least don't put in that many cops, varying sanity cops aren't particularly fun to play.

Let's see 17 players, try 4 scum and an SK maaaaaaybe. (even that is swingy as fuck).

I mean where to start, it depends on what roles you want/prefer to keep and start working(re-working) the set-up from there.

[Faraday]

I'd drop the Beloved Princess, terrible role, really.

[Faraday]

I'd drop the Beloved Princess, terrible role, really.

Not as bad as lyncher

It's far worse, but we'll just have to agree to disagree.

[Faraday]

Lyncher on scum is probs worse, I think. I like lynchers to some degree as long as it's...accounted for.

[Faraday]

Doesn't a lyncher's wincon usually dictate that once their target is lynched, they leave the game?

Yes.

[Faraday]

Hi, hi, hi, this butterfly brings greetings from FaraMina land.

Anyway, Upick: scummers edition is coming up in a short time, probably within the next week, or less. We already have our 2 heads, so we're looking for 1 more to help us balance the set-up when it's done and just make sure there's nothing we both miss.

Thanks in advance! Your help will be appreciated.

Hi still need this, and since most of the people I'd usually ask are pre-inned welp. Would like to get it sorted before we go into the queue. Thanks!

[Faraday]

Don't these also require 5 games modded on-site?

5 games modded well, too.

[Faraday]

Okay. Gonna run Metal Gear Solid Mafia.

Would like a co/back-up/reviewer who has some familiarity with the series to bounce ideas off of. I have an outline for the game in a quicktopic but stuff can be changed

[Faraday]

Thanks Kdub!

(you should pre-in, yes

you

)

[Faraday]

i'll do it on the proviso I can use the phrases

'swingy but balanced'
and
'relatively balanced'

pm it over when you're done

[Faraday]

That's not really a hydra? It seems like a way to make an 18p all neighbour game 9p Maybe it'd be allowed but etc

[Faraday]

hm. weird. still not really a hydra, just...kinda neighbours with the one vote? it's prob 9p that way, though. maybe kinda?

[Faraday]

lovers usually have a seperate vote i thought but it's the same thing basically so eh

[Faraday]

Normal Review group will review it, no?

[Faraday]

Send it to me plz!! ;}

[Faraday]

Normal review committee will do that for you, if you want. They check for normalcy/balance if asked.

[Faraday]

Uh, not 100% sure on the procedure, contact Tierce - she's the list mod (it probably all goes through her, too)
