So, now at 187 pages...does this game rank near the top of the lengthiest page-counts? I'm sure it's not the literal top, but don't know how common these have become in my absence.
I'm pretty sure it's not even close to the longest game I've been in, in terms of real-life time elapsed. I have a vague memory of a game (run by....Darkblade?) that thanks to his constant disappearing acts, lasted for over a year.-

OMG Mathcam, now it's 188! What did you DO?!?
In seriousness, I remember replacing into something that went over 200 posts. I have no idea of the current meta, though."Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."-

Thanks
My brother was recently in a newbie game that got 2nd place for the shortest day in terms of number of posts. That's how I found out there's a records page on the wiki!

I thought D3 of this game might make longest day in terms of posts, but it's not even close. As for time, the top five all are over a year long.-

There was a dumb game called chess mafia that is untouchable in terms of run length. It had a silly mechanic where the town was white and the scum were black in a game of chess and went back and forth voting on moves, so each day instead of lynching they collectively voted on the move to play, it ran for a ridiculously long number of game days.Taking a break from the site.-

Chess was great. Some time after the first mod couldn't take it anymore, the backup went "Oh god, please just lynch someone" and a bunch of the players threatened to replace out. They didn't sign up for this game to playmafia.
Egypt, the next slowest, probably does qualify as a mafia game. That is the only good thing I can say about it.
Did you say "run another Telephone Pictionary?" I heard "run another Telephone Pictionary."Green Crayons wrote:Basically, what I'm saying is that everyone was wrong, except for when they were right, but more importantly, Ether should play a game or something, you know?
(But seriously, I stopped playing mafia for a reason. Even if I did join a game again, it'd probably be a newbie. I like newbie games.)As I move my vote

I know, right? Of all the posts that had to start a new page...
Here's that Darkblade game I was talking about
http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=185
It does fall shy of Chess Mafia (wow -- and a mini at that!) at only 14 months, but it is striking that it was only 50 pages long. That means it accrued about 3.5 pages of gameper month. We had about 50 pages per month here in Oldy Mafia 2. Also noteworthy is that I lost it for the town in 3-player lylo.-

Wow. That is not a promising first page.
For the record, Egypt had a terribly inactive mod who neglected to tell my mason buddy that he'd been culted until about five months AFTER he led the wagon on the cult leader, pushing her lynch through when she had no other recruits except (unwittingly) him. This effectively cleared him from being cult, preventing us from lynching him and allowing the game to drag out another seven months or so after that. It ended in a draw after he won but fessed up about the mod's horrible timing.As I move my vote

I feel bad saying i would replace and then withdrawing when i started modding games and the game reached 100. I apologize again Patrick
I should have reoffered at some point near then end. Please pester me extra hard next time you run a game Patrick. GJ scum hope IKA didn't feel off by all the veteransWhen I joined this site, I was a software tester for mobile business applications and the song PokerFace was not yet written by Lady Gaga
Now I test lottery and gambling software as my job. It's funny how my life has turned out. Somewhere a Time Traveler is laughing madly-

im not itimidated by old players (tbh i have been playing for sevral years myself).
im usally the scum mastermind planner, so if we have daychat or 1/2 nights for me to live, i can give my scum team enough plans to win most of the time.
im usally a good idea to try to keep for one day and then after that discard if needed-

I read this entire game, and now I can explain why I chose to do what I did D1.
LmL's stupid moves:
1) I didn't alter my play enough to begin with (Hi, StD!) and playing with people who have 5-10 games with me? Quite a mistake. I knew that I was signing StD's death warrant midway through the day.
2) I couldn't make a strong enough case on anyone who WASN'T SCUM day 1. You guys were so freaking dead on D1, I thought the game would be over, and fast. I kept on manufacturing bullshit, and, rightfully, called out on it.
Midway through the day we were forced with a choice.. lynch me, or lynch bookitty. Since I knew people would catch StD because of my tunneling, we were going to push Boo's lynch... but the more I opened my trap, the more Boo became very... well... forgotten about? Towards the end, my goal was not to sir any pot. Or anything. My goal was simply to make you forget about why ANY of you suspected Boo to begin with. D1, you guys successfully pegged 3 scum.
Way to go scum. Thanks for honoring my dying wish to kill Shanba. I smelled power role all over."LML = Mafia God" - Pie Is Good

Hi!
In hindsight, everything worked out well for us. I don't know if anyone on either side would say they played without any hiccups.-
