Welcome To Congressional Mafia!

Concept/Setup:

Congressional Mafia is a mafia variant
where the town does not vote to lynch. Instead each townie gets 1
votes(and so does the mafia) for who they want to elect to congress. The
time constraints are much more relevant in this game as the winners
will be decided by the end votes at the end of 2 DAYS. Once a Congress has been elected the representatives (which could be mafia) decide with a 2/3 majority who the town lynch goes to.If the congress cannot
reach a 2/3 majority(Unlikely) the vote turns over to the president a
town role revealed first day with the ability to 'Veto' a congressional
decision something that can only be overturned by a 3/3 consensus or
break a voting tie or make a decision when congress cant decide. The
presidents abilities are generally early game good for scum so the
president might not be the wisest first kill for a scum. If you are a
congressmen for a night you are immune to being killed but you cannot
use your power role if you have one. Mafia NK rules remain the same but
you cant kill congressmen. If you are a mafia member in congress you can
still vote in your chat for a NK but cant be the one to execute it.
After a few days if the game is still active and there are less than 6
players alive the game plunges into 'Anarchy'. All normal voting rules
preceed and the president is forced out of office.

Town Setup:
5 Townies( With Power Roles Mixed In)
1 Presidential Bodyguard
1 President
Mafia Setup:
2 Mafias

Special Voting Laws:
Town
can vote to do the following things during day instead of voting for a
congressmen(If you vote to do one of these things you cant vote for a
congressmen unless you unvote that turn)
Impeach the President:
You may vote to impeach a president during the day in
which case if you are successful the presidents role is forgoan and the
president is assimilated into the town. If such a event does occur the
next cycle of voting you must cast a normal vote and a special election
vote where you decide whom to elect to the presidency. A very risky
play.
Requires 2/3 Majority Vote
Enact Martial Law:
If
such a motion is passed the democratic voting is suspended for 2
day/night cycles. President Gains the Power of a Investigator(which he
uses in the night) and the authority to Put someone on the 'Hanging
Block'(Also at night) All normal discussion can occur and anyone can
give suggestions to president no kills occur untill after and the
president decides when each day concludes(3 RL day maximum per day).
Once the martial law concludes the very next day the town must vote on
whether or not to execute those on the hanging block and elect a new
congress. All presidents powers return to normal.
Requires 2/3 Majority Vote and Consent of President(President Vote In Favor)
Night Patrols:

If such a motion is passed no actions occur at night including the
actions of the town power roles and the actions of congress. More or
less a vote to extend discussion.Can only occur once every 5 days(So
most likely may only occur once a game or not at all).
Requires Simple Majority Vote(Only action that can be Vetoed by President)

Also Your Public Information:

The Town President is Rafay.

How many people are elected to Congress?

That is a good question. Also, how long are the days? We are going to need a little time to figure this all out, vote for congress.. hopefully the days aren't too short. (of course, it won't matter if town is inactive again..)

How many people are elected to Congress?

 

Congress has 535 voting members: 435 Representatives and 100 Senators.

3 people are elected

All PM's Sent!

i have no idea what i'm supposed to do but i'm here and ready to do it

So it begins and I have returned

I love the new set up. I had to read it several times to let it all sink in but I think I have a pretty good handle on it all now. One thing we have to change is how active we are all. This game seems very fast paced and mafia could use this to their advantage if we have a lot of inactives.

 

 

So Rafay is president and now we must elect a congress.

 

Since Kevin seems to know so much about it my vote will go towards him when I am on an actual PC.

I shall do my best to serve the office.

I Shall Now Talk Like This. Any game questions? Ask in Our PM or Here!

Is it one vote per person and the top three win?

 

Or is it such that we all vote for congress member #1 and then all vote for congress member #2 etc?

 

[bvote: Kevin[/b]

 

Remember your constituents.

Are we allowed to campaign or is it just off random votes (basically popular votes)? 

can we vote for ourselves?

Are ties broken by timing (like lynches at deadline)?

You all get 1 vote for all canidates. In the case of a tie the president elects the congressmen whoms slots were not filled.

Campaigning is allowed

I'd prefer working w/ a congress made up of kilgor, EM and Kevin.

They must be scum! (except me)

Also when you serve on congress you cant use your normal role... If you are mafia and you are elected you dont get to decide on kill.

So if all three mafia are elected, they are basically roleblocked. Good to know! Hope I put in my bit for the game

i'm up for being elected. vote for me people and i shall post kittens and snazzle berries

My fellow townies,

I humbly solicit your vote for Congress. If elected, I will vote to lynch Kaziocore. Failing that, Curufinwe will be my second choice.

Why?

Post Count:

4 KevinH
3 Electric Mango
3 Killgor
2 Rafay
2 Road2Victory
1 Mariomario190
1 Big Ego
0 Curufinwe
0 Kaziocore

 

Also, I vote for Congress: Electric Mango.

Ideally, I would like to get them to start posting. I'm getting rather sick of losing thanks to inactive townies.. but assuming nothing changes, might as well lynch them first.

Also, I feel we need to get the elections done as quickly as possible so we still have time work afterwards. So I won't be running, I support electing Rafay's suggested Congress. Killgor, EM & KevinH.

Vote for Congress: KevinH

I will also support to vote for the so called immortal trio: EM, KevinH, and Killgor.
