Welcome to the Signups for a game that's going to be pure hell to mod. Alternate Universe Mafia! In this game, a number of things that are impossible may happen. If they do, the game will be split into multiple possible universes (there may also be other ways this can happen). During the day, things will remain fairly simple as each person must vote the same way in all universes (unless they are voting for someone who is dead in some universes, in which case they may specify a different vote for those universes or just go voteless in them). During the night, however, things get crazy as a choice must be made for each universe (investigative and other roles will be altered to make this more balanced). Questions? Ask! I'm looking for 30 players now, but I can modify it for more or less.

Will there be an upper-limit on the quantity of alternate universes? In which case, how will "impossible" events be prevented from occuring too frequently? Will the game take place in one thread or multiple (one for each universe)?

This sounds like a interesting game.

Pure hell to mod? I think this'll be pure hell to play. It'll probably even be hell just to watch.

Looks interesting, but I'll stick to the last; I'm in too many games at present.

This may prove to be quite a short(er than anticipated) game; If roles are revealed (through death or claimed/confirmed cop), then innocence should not be difficult to ascertain while the player(s) is alive (in another universe). Uncertain death-scenes / "dead (role) list" may be used to compensate, leaving cop-claims and other methods for claim validation (this is assuming roles remain constant). I'm quite sure Polotet will have already considered this though.

A concern may be when a universe is 'won' by a particular group. Perhaps a 'universal dominance' scoring system will be implemented, or only the last universe will remain - if universes can collapse (as asked above) upon a group 'winning' there - (i.e. whoever wins there [the last universe], wins the game).

I suppose we will see soon enough.

I'm around for a night, but will be gone until Wednesday again after tonight. So, Questions:

Quote:
Will there be an upper-limit on the quantity of alternate universes?

I don't think I'll place an upper limit. Different factors should keep the number fairly low on their own. Also, there might be rules that kick in if it gets high.
Quote:
In which case, how will "impossible" events be prevented from occuring too frequently?

There will only be a few cases which could cause them. The game could conceivably run without one ever happening, although universes will still split in other ways.
Quote:
Will the game take place in one thread or multiple (one for each universe)?

One. I may be crazy, but I'm not suicidal.
Quote:
Will I ever see you again after this game, p'tet?

Probably not, I admit.
Quote:
Where the heck did this come from?

The idea sprung from a thread I posted in the other day in General Mafia Discussion on Mafiascum started by Beaudoin.
Quote:
Er... can different universes collapse at a later point?

Yes, in a variety of ways.

Improbable: I'm not going to respond to that post, as it doesn't contain any direct questions and a general response would reveal information that I'm not ready to reveal yet, and may not reveal until after the game. However, feel free to continue speculating, and ask any questions you might have.
