Live-Action Cosplay Mafia
« on: June 13, 2010, 11:03:43 pm »
First of all, I really had no idea where to post this. It kind of fit several categories, but since it fit most with planning a gathering, I put it here. If there's a better place lemme know.

Next, the actual subject at hand. Now, I'm guessing since we're all crazy lunatics here at Kumo, most of us have heard of the game, Mafia. If not, here's an awesome explanation.

IT'S A FLASH!

Anyway, I frequently moderate online and face-to-face mafia games out of pure enjoyment, and while I was reading up on new roles to use, I came across an interesting idea. There was an article about live-action mafia. Basically, mafia in real time. As well, the article noted that the best place to perform live-action mafia was at either camps or conventions. So here's the pitch. How many people would be interested in having a live-action mafia game at Kumoricon based on their cosplays? (or lack thereof) If we do it, I will be completely in control of the moderation process. Those playing would only have to report to me with their votes and/or actions during the proper time, so it would a fun little game to have as we enjoy the con. And if there's enough interest, I may buckle down and try and come up with some fun tricks like hints and secret missions.

So I reiterate, who's interested?

would it be a specific anime/manga we'd be cosplaying from, or could it be random? I'm interested in this idea, it sounds like fun

It would be random for sure, although I've toyed with the idea of having people's roles in the game be based off their cosplay.

Well I'd love to do it obviously, but there's no way it'll run properly with less than 18 people, so I'mma probably need to have a sign-up list or something. What's a good place to post something like that?
