Succinct Mafia

Post by Deltaflyer »

For those of you who do not know the game:

The game is played by a group of people, each playing the role of either a murdering mafia member or an innocent townsperson, (they may or may not have 'powers', an example of this would be the cop, as the cop can investigate a player during the night phase, to determine their alignment) along with a game moderator. At the beginning of the game, night falls, and the mafia family members become aware of each other (by communication from the moderator). They then choose a victim, and the moderator announces the death scene. When day breaks, the town must try to weed out the evil by lynching someone they suspect to be mafia. The game continues, alternating between night and day, until one side is eliminated.


Rules of the Game
- Do not post consecutively aside from errors in your previous post or to clarify something you feel is critical.
- No editing your posts.
- No talking outside the thread about the game, Seiriously. Doing this is an instant modkill.
- No posting during game nights.
- No spectator posts. Period.
- Don't directly quote your role PM. This will result in a modkill.
- Vote using ##Vote: name and ##Unvote: name (with the bold). This is to make it easier for me to count votes.
- PLAY TO WIN.
- There will be no extensions barring a 2-minute autoextend granted on a one-time vote for extension.
- LYLO and potential LYLO will be announced. There will be no time limit on LYLO days.
- There are roles in this game. This is a closed setup.
- Town must lynch. If there is a deadlock at deadline, I will roll a dice to deicide who dies.
- Modkills may result in an instant end of the day phase depending on circumstances and subject to my discretion. Modkills are bad for the game and potentially for both sides. Please don't make them happen.
- All days will be for 48 hours to allow for various timezones to contribute, this will lower the chance of lurking. Nights will last until all participants with night roles have PM'd me with their action.

I shall moderate this game. It will be regular mafia, with no rolemadness, or assorted weirds.

Possible roles:

Vanilla Town,
Cop,
Doc,

Vanilla Mafia,
Mafia Godfather.

I am looking to get around 12-15 people in this game, and would love to get more. And if it catches on, I might run more.

Current signups:

1. Grath
2. Nineteen45
3. AidanAdv
4. Isu
5. HK
6. Normandy
7. Derekiv
8.
9.
10.
11.
12.

Abbreviations:

LYLO = Lynch or Lose. A day when townies MUST lynch scum, otherwise they lose. An example of this would be 3 people remaining in the game, 2 townies and 1 mafia member. If they lynch incorrectly, and the mafia manages to get a townie lynched, the mafia will win. This is because they then have the ability of nightkilling the remaining townie, thus winning the game.

Scum = Mafia member.

Cop = Investigator.

Doc = Doctor.

Are you game for a go at mafia?

It doesn't.
However, asking for an explanation of the game when one is already present would hint at some degree of ignorance, something that might turn messy in a mafia game.

I guess six players could make for a (very) small mafia game. Are all the people who signed up still willing for a game? If so, I will send out Role PM's after the last reply back that tells me everyone is still in.

And hell, if we get more players, the more the merrier.

P.s, could a moderator please delete the above exchange between myself and Deathbal? Thank you.
