Forum games

[Arovien]

PSU is large enough to host a variety of forum games. The most common and popular one I can think of is Mafia (the party game).

Many insanely popular forums of all kinds host Mafia sub-forums. Mafia games can be played by only using a thread, PMs, and a/the sub-forum mod. In case some of you are not familiar with how Mafia is played on a forum check this guide out (http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Newbie_Guide) and this one (http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showthread.php?t=151417).

As stated in the guides: double-posting, "attacking" players, and closing/opening the same thread multiple times is required. This might be against the forum rules or common forum etiquette, yet would only allowed in this particular sub-forum.

Other forum games can include a simpler game where the prize is a beta key. Details can be thought of by the sponsors (those giving out the beta keys).

Hope to hear from the mods on their take of the subject soon.

I came up with one for the Admin. It's a variation of Whack 0 mole! It saves the forum then activates the game! then the Admin hits buttons to randomly temp ban players representing if he hit the moles during a certain time for the duration of the game. He tries to see how high of a score he can get. Then it resets! During the game it displays an image at the top of all pages indicating the game is active! 8p I recomned something from sam n max. Like max trying to play whack o mole from the game.

Might need to add another type of interface so it's not random making it skill based. But I couldn't think of one.

Doh.. NVM that is easy. Just setup a physical whackamole board and press with mouse. it randomly picks names from the forum for each mole!

you could do a simon says variant called the TR Says. and you'd have some time limit to hit a button or type a phrase. or do a red light green light thing
