S-FM Lovers' Talk (12P)

Feel free to Review

---

• This setup is based on Let's Talk
  • Which is based on True_Love

• Removed Jester Ahmed's role and it's associated role card, possible feedback and win condition.

• Changed lynch mechanic and day length.

• Clarified in both - game mechanics and Talkers role card - that his actions do not influence whom do people share their lifes with.

• Changed some other wordings in Game Mechanics. (please review)

• Slight changes in Rules of Conduct. (please review) And also:
  • I am unsure of the " Minimum of 10 posts per game day." rule, now that lynches and mafia kills can make days last shorter..
  • I am unsure of the "Do not post links to other websites." rule, since it disallows memes and videos.
  • I am unsure of keeping the link to the standard FM rules - as one of them is "You may not rage quit", which is unreasonable for my taste.
    
    • What is "Autoplay"?

Mechanics

Similarly to the first Let's Talk setup, this is an experimental setup, because the amount of lovers and possible strange deaths is really high.

What happens for the Mafia Usurper if the Godfather's lover gets lynched?

Making the 240 hours days mechanic more obvious on the setup page would be good, so that people don't sign without realizing what they're getting into.


Other than that, the mechanics seem good.

    • What is "Autoplay"?

The setup will require rules on activity to avoid having long days of inactivity. I suggest 25 posts per game day (which means 25 posts per 10 real life days).

Ragequitting the game would mean that the players would become inactive for no valid reason. Why would you want to allow such a thing to happen? Of course, you cannot control how people live their lives, but having it in the rules will prevent the rulebreakers from hurting other games' quality.

Although I have never seen such a thing, I believe that autoplay is any sound-making thing that plays automatically, without having the user click something beforehand.

Godfather is dead, thats what Usurper wants

I actually changed it back to 48 hours lol. A mechanic like that can be changed in signup page anyway

Rules

I just added "4. Stay active! (Host is the judge of that)"

ragequitting means subbing out and letting someone else in your slot when you don't want to play anymore. I see that as reasonable tbh.

Although I have never seen such a thing, I believe that autoplay is any sound-making thing that plays automatically, without having the user click something beforehand.
I don't believe such a thing exist tbh. :P

If you approve this, could you rename it to Let's Talk and delete the original Let's Talk setup? The website doesn't allow me to do either.
Besides. Both setups are same except that awful Jester Ahmed is out.

Then you should change the Usurper's wincon to "See the Godfather dead and win with the Mafia.", to avoid confusion.

Lol ok for the phase lenght, that's true.


Good activity rule.

That's asking for a replacement, not "ragequitting". It is indeed reasonable. Plus, your definition of "ragequitting" wouldn't work in a rule, because an angry player could just make up any other reason that looks valid to be replaced out without issues. Therefore, the link to the rules is completely good.

Well, yeah, but the rule must be there for a reason, eh? It's probably the easiest rule to follow


Sure. This setup will be renamed to S-FM Let's Talk (12P) with the Experimental label, and the other setup will be renamed to Let's Talk (Archived Original Setup), and placed in the FM Archive.

Just take care of the Usurper's wincon and we should be good to go.
