My one regret in the time I played TWG is that I could never play the games I designed.

I'm hosting a twg on another forum and all of you should join.

Seeing as how our lovely host has been banned for a week, does anyone have any ideas for running the TWG? Having a board moderator oversee the game would be nice.

This is definitely one for the history books lol

So fank009 and another representative of 2+2 forums have contacted me telling me that NSM was scouted for sending a representative to play in a forum-wide tournament (at 2+2 forums).  Bird, vermilionvermin, and I being more attached to LLF, it wouldn't really feel right for us to represent NSM.  I think fank009 already played for last year's games, so he would be out for nominations as well, I believe.

Currently, I would recommend Bubbles as the NSM Representative.  I haven't verified with her on whether she would be busy or if she even wants to, but I also want to inquire for other opinions as well.  Would anyone be interested in participating?

The way the games work is that there are is a sort of preliminary round where every representative participates in one of four games, and the best players of each round participate in a grand final round.  Day Phases are lasting 36 hours, Night Phases 12, when on weekdays.  Half the time when on weekends.  So the games are going to be intense and you'll, evidently, need to be active.

The first game is scheduled for April 6th and the other three will have a set starting date for within the next one to three months afterwards.

If enough people are interested, I'll most likely put the representative to score-based voting (everyone scores each nominee on a 1 to 10 scale and the winning nominee is chosen based on who has the highest average).

If I get time I can represent NSM if needed.

To clarify: Friday, Saturday and Sunday will be combined, so the game is slower on weekends: 60 hours for day and 12 hours for night. But Mashi is absolutely right that activity is huge - the game will be much more active than you're used to.

Here's all the info:

The current plan for season 2

•   65 different communities will be represented.
•   1 player per community for the entire season (preferably).
•   5 qualifying games will be played with 13 players each.
•   2 players advance to the finale from each game based on post-game votes.
•   3 additional players are granted wildcard spots.

Game setup

The game will have a very basic mafia setup: 3 mafia members, 7 vanilla townies and 1 cop. The cop starts the game with a random vanilla townie peek. Roles revealed upon death.

Some communities are not very used to playing basic setups like this, but for the first season, we utilized a setup with a good share of power roles, so this time around we are trying something new. For season 3 we will switch it up again.

Days will last 36 hours and nights 12 hours, meaning 48 hours (2 days) per game day. With one exception: The weekend (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) will be one game day. This means the game will last a maximum of 2 weeks.

Timeline

The first game is set to start April 6th. The other four games will take place in the 1-3 months after that. I will make a Doodle and find out the best times to start the 5 games so that preferably everyone gets to play during a time that suits them well.

In addition to this, it is also a priority to ensure as much as possible that all the players in any given game has no prior history of playing with each other to ensure a level playing field (but I cannot 100 % guarantee that this won't happen).

Ahh, my mistake, Thingyman, I misinterpreted the statement you made.  Thank you for the correction.

I'll probably put up a topic later today and people can nominate themselves and/or others for until tomorrow 11PM EDT (just like usual!!!).  I'll have everyone PM me with their scores for each nominee afterwards.
