General Rules

(Stolen from my last game)

 

1. This is game. Play to win; expect to lose. And have fun.

 

2. No editing or deleting posts.

 

3. No talking to other players outside the game thread unless your Role PM states specifically that you can.

 

4. No quoting any PMs from me, including Role PMs. Doing so will get you modkilled. Paraphrasing is OK. If you are worried about something not being ok, then either PM me or just dont say it.

 

5. Vote for a player to be lynched by using the Vote: Narsis format. You dont need to unvote before voting again, but it is appreciated(especially if you dont vote again right away).

 

6. Days will last 10 days. Nights will last up to 72 hours, but may be cut short if I get all actions in before then, with a minimum 24 hour night.

6-1. If discussion is lagging, I may impose a shorter deadline at my own discretion. Deadline extensions will happen on request - but will only happen once per day at most, and if I feel there's enough activity to warrant one.

 

7. A lynch requires a majority (50% rounded down + 1) vote. You can also No Lynch, by using Vote: No Lynch.

7-1. If there is no majority by deadline, only a half-majority is needed. (Majority / 2, rounded up if necessary)

7-2. If there are 2 players with the same amount of at least half-majority votes at deadline, then I will lynch the one who reached that number of votes first.

 

8. After someone has been lynched, discussion may continue until I can get to the thread and end the day. If you are dead you may continue to post until your death scene is posted. After that point I will only allow a Bah post, and only if you were night killed.

 

9. Don't use small / invisible font, don't use coloured text(except for mole who is allowed to use orange if he is acting as the super moderator of the forum), and don't use any form of clever encryption or code in your messages.

 

10. If you haven't posted in 2 days, I'll prod you. If you don't pick up that prod AND post within 48 hours, I'll replace you.

10-1. If you need to be replaced for whatever reason, please PM me, don't flake.

10-2. If you are V/LA, don't rely on me checking the thread / your signature. Please post in the thread notifying me of your V/LA or PM me about it.

10-3. If you replace out, you automatically lose. If you are someone replacing in, whether it counts as a win or loss depends on how long you have been replaced in for.

 

11. Vote counts will be made whenever I feel like it(or it is asked) and will be done in a separate post.

 

13. I hope it isn't necessary, but any modkills will negatively effect the rule-breaker's faction in some way which I see fit. If you are modkilled, you lose, no matter how the game ends.

 

14. I can change, add, or edit rules as I see fit. I will notify players in-thread if this happens.

 

15. I am not perfect. I may have got something wrong. I may have missed a rule out. Let me know, ask me questions, but don't abuse my mistakes.

15-1. To get my attention in-thread, use the MOD: <Your message> format. Or, y'know, you could PM me.

 

Special Rules

(stolen from one of the PYP games on mafiascum and edited for this game)

 

These rules are unique to this game. Probably worth a look at some point.

 

This is a semi-open setup: 4 mafia and 11 town. Each player will receive one of the following PMs:

 

Mafia wrote:

You are a part of the mafia along with X, Y, and Z. Each night the four of you can choose a player in the town to kill, though you are not forced too. Before the game begins, the four of you have 96 hours to talk and decide on which four poweroles the town will have, from the list of seven given in the rules post. Because of the importance of the decision, I'd like confirmation from at least three of you as to the choices being made. Oh, and remember, you can communicate in private with your partners at any point during the game.

 

You win when the town no longer has the majority of votes.

 

Townsperson wrote:

You are a townsperson. At present you have no abilities other than your voice and your vote, but it's possible you will receive a useful ability. You will be told at the start of day 0 what your ability is if any, otherwise you're just a vanilla townie.

 

You win when the mafia has been eliminated.

 

 

During the pregame stage, the mafia will have a maximum of 96 hours to choose four (different) protown poweroles from the following list:

 

Macho Cop wrote:

You are a macho cop. Every night you may investigate another player and receive a guilty or innocent result from me. You cannot be protected by a doctor if there are any doctors.

 

 

Doctor wrote:

You are a doctor. Every night you can give me the name of a player you want to protect; they will be immune to all kills that night. You may not protect yourself.

 

 

Weak doctor wrote:

You a weak doctor. Every night you can give me the name of a player you want to protect; you will block one kill against them that night. If you protect a member of the mafia, you will be killed that night. You may not protect yourself.

 

 

4-shot Vig wrote:

You are a vigilante. Each night you have the option of killing another player who you suspect is scum. You only have four shots and can only shoot once per night.

 

 

Bulletproof wrote:

You are bulletproof. You will block one night kill against you each night.

 

 

Vengeful wrote:

You are vengeful. If/when you are lynched, during the next night, and next night only, you can send me the name of one of the people that voted for you. A night kill will be attempted against them. This ability can't be roleblocked.

 

 

Detective wrote:

You are a detective. Each you can choose another player to track and watch that night. I will tell you who they targeted and who targeted them last night.

 

 

Once the mafia have chosen, the poweroles are immediately distributed randomly to four members of the town. The game then starts with day 0. During day 0, everyone gets to vote for three perks to give the mafia, from the following list:

 

4-shot roleblocker wrote:

You are a 4-shot roleblocker. Four times during the game, at night, you can block another player from taking any nightactions. If that player is a cop or detective they will be notified of the block, otherwise they won't be.

 

 

Day Rolecop wrote:

You are a day rolecop. Each day you may investigate another player and find out their full role.

 

 

1-shot janitor wrote:

You are a 1-shot janitor. Once during the game, before a lynch has taken place, you may PM me and ask for the lynched player's alignment to be covered up. You may not cover up your own alignment in this way.

 

 

Godfather wrote:

You are a godfather. Any cop investigations against you will show the opposite of their expected result, and any nightkills against you will fail. You also have the option of allowing a weak doctor to protect you and still survive; you can use this on any night by PMing me.

 

 

Ninja wrote:

You are a ninja. You will not show up to the detective as targeting anyone, or being targeted by anyone.

 

Bus driver wrote:

You are a bus driver. During the night you may "switch" two players. Any actions against the first player, will instead be used against the second and vice versa. You will be seen as targeting both players however.

 

 

Everyone has three votes on day 0, and these can be removed and changed as often as you like, just as with normal voting. Note that you can't place all your votes on the same perk, however. When a choice reaches 8 votes, it's locked in and can't be changed. When three perks/abilities have been chosen, the mafia have a brief period to decide amongst themselves which of them get which perk, and which one stays as a goon. After that, the game starts with day 1, and from them on progresses normally. Note that the mafia in this game can talk during day as well as night.

Edited January 2, 201115 yr by Narsis

CD - thanks for the scenarios. I kinda get how the janitor is powerful now, and agree it's not worth doing.

 

That narrows it down to Bus Driver/Role blocker then for the third. I'll also take a page from EM here and lock in my vote on the first two now:

Vote: Godfather and Ninja for now

 

Also, since CD has a good analysis of what roles mafia would have given the town and we probably have a bulletproof - can the roleblocker block bulletproof? Vengeful explicitly says "Cannot be roleblocked", but bulletproof doesnt say anything like that. If every town role is meant to have a corresponding mafia weakness, it'd make sense for bulletproof's weakness to be the roleblocker. If that's the case, then I REALLY am unsure about giving them the means to get around our one invulnerable guy... thoughts?

 

Sorry if I'm asking too many questions; this is probably one of the few days/evenings I'll get to be really active here, so I'm trying to make it count

 

-Preston

 

Well in my opinion, you can't role block a bulletproof person as his ability is not a night action but a passive ability.

lets get this going

 

Vote: 4 shot roleblocker

Mafia roles:

 

Godfather (9) - Martino, ccabal86, AKCPLUTO, Kasabian, Chaoshawk, Kaziocore, CanucksDynasty, Electric Mango, Preston

Ninja (9) - Martino, ccabal86, AKCPLUTO, Kasabian, Chaoshawk, Kaziocore, CanucksDynasty, Electric Mango, Preston

4-shot Roleblocker (11) - KevinH, Kasabian, Chaoshawk, CanucksDynasty, ccabal86, Preston, Electic Mango, AKCPLUTO, Martino, Kaziocore, Nerau

1-shot janitor (1) - KevinH,

Bus Driver (1) - KevinH,

Day Rolecop (0) -

 

 

Godfather, Ninja and 4-shot Roleblocker chosen.

 

 

It seems that we had a few more votes at the end for the 4-shot Roleblocker.

I'm betting that a couple of mafia are in that mix.

Well in my opinion, you can't role block a bulletproof person as his ability is not a night action but a passive ability.

 

I also take it as a passive ability as well but what really counts is how the MOD determines it.

If there is a cop, we need to be cautious about relying on the results since there are now known godfather and ninja roles.

I like to play "follow the cop", but I think this time I have to reconsider.

 

That said, if the cop roleclaims or is revealed, then those that pushed for the godfather and ninja roles will be a bit more suspicious to me.

That said, I doubt the mafia would pick cop as a role to grant so those roles do make sense.

The Godfather, Ninja, and 4-shot Roleblocker have been selected.

 

Day 1 begins

 

With 15 alive, it takes 8 to lynch.

 

Deadline is Jan 15.

Guranteed that there is no Macho Cop.

Almost slim to none chance for a detective.

 

If we do have a detective...he can still be of some use.

He should still see the 4-shot roleblocker, goon, and Godfather if they do something at night.

Also he might be able to figure out other townies with power roles.

 

 

Might as well get the ball rolling...

 

Vote: KevinH

 

Reason: it's part of my shtick :wink: (inside joke).

Vote: Akcpluto

 

Reason: he said I talk too much and used small font to say it. He must be scum.

Vote: 19thSpecOps, beacause he hasn't posted yet

I think I'll wait to vote. First day executions are usually a shot in the dark and forcing through a vote early in the day seems like a waste.

Vote: ccabal86

 

simply b/c of that statement

 

day 1 voting is more fruitful plunder than anything serious at least during the start imo

edit

 

i have to remember to delete reasoning when changing my mind

 

vote on ccabal86 is random that is all

D:

 

I'm contemplating the usefulness of a possible 1st day no-lynch vote in this game. I think we should wait and just see who dies to get some sort of clue.

Well in my opinion, you can't role block a bulletproof person as his ability is not a night action but a passive ability.

I was going for the 'everything has a counter' idea, but that could be too - getting into action vs passive is a little over my head at the moment :-p

 

And now I guess the flurry of accusations begins? Also - when I read about the last game, everything started with sortof a flavor/npc event to get the ball rolling; I guess that's not happening this time.

 

Wow, CD already has a list @.@ You're picking up on some subtle stuff I guess.

Or maybe just overly twitchy/random stuff O.o I actually think ccabal has a valid point, or at least something worth asking - who else hasnt said anything yet?

 

Ehh... yeah, I'll wait a day or so to learn how this works before putting in a vote (there's no sudden death like with the mafia roles is there?)

 

If I'm still clueless by Friday or so maybe I'll use a random number generator, for today at least XD

 

-Preston

A random vote would provide some interesting information - mainly who looks to quickly jump on a bandwagon. With that said I still hate randomly killing someone because it sucks for that one person to just die for no good reason.

Or maybe just overly twitchy/random stuff O.o I actually think ccabal has a valid point, or at least something worth asking - who else hasnt said anything yet?

 

I checked, and he's the only one that hasn't said anything.

I would normally be inclined to no-lynch. Four mafia and eleven townies make the odds pretty good that we'll lynch a townie.

 

Unfortunately, it will be worse tomorrow after the probable night-kill and assuming there is not a cop, we won't have much more information than we have now.

 

If CanucksDynasty isn't night-killed, he must be scum!

:grenadekx1:

Vote: 19thSpecOps, beacause he hasn't posted yet

 

I agree that on day 1 when "nobody knows nothin'", inactivity is as good a reason to lynch as any.*

*For the new players, my use of quotes means I realize that it's a double negative.

Vote: KevinH

 

He typically goes on a rant about no lynching, clearly his change in strategy is out of character and he is corrupted... Otherwise I'd vote an inactive. So far no one strikes me as suspicious. There are people from previous games such as Nerau, Kasabian who are often silent and its hard to tell whether they are mafia or not.

I always act in the best interest of the town.

 

Normally, I would rather not lynch when the best strategy is to let the cop do his work.

 

However, in this instance it is very rational to assume that there is not a cop.

You seems pretty sure there is no cop , don't you?

 

Also ,you were the only one that voted for the roles that were more favorable to the scums, right? So that's what makes me think that you KevinH are a scum, for that reason

How did you arrive at this conclusion if you don't mind me asking?

:grenadekx1:

 

That's my line

How did you arrive at this conclusion if you don't mind me asking?

 

Well...nothing really too concreate as this is Day 1.

I probably will change my mind on a few as discussion continues.

It's more of a gut feel than anything else...

 

 

Martino - 1st to actually question KevinH suggestion. 1st to actually suggests that mafia wouldn't give townie cop roles.

(whereas Nerau, AKCPLUTO, and Choashawk merely added side commentry agreeing with KevinH)

 

Kasabian - 2nd to choose the 4-shot roleblocker (which is also my choice but 1st was KevinH)

 

Kaziocore - Fully explained the roles townies were probably given and the suggested mafia roles we should vote on

 

Chaoshawk - Has the same combo of roles that I picked as well (...but I have a hard time reading him so that may change)

 

ccabal86 - FIrst to suggest Bus Driver role is dangerous if we don't have cop roles
