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.

I said congress was scum cuz a 3/3 consensus was reached and that's just impossible or too good bi-partisanship. So the mafia goat a chance for a double kill. May be 2 of the congressmen could be scum.....

 

 

"Would you look at that, I'm cultivating bi-partisanship...." -Frank Underwood.

well rafay, it's like this. even if it was 2v1 a lynch would have happened. but if i understood right, you'd have had the chance to veto it. would you have veto'ed curufinwe being lynched on the first day? please bear in mind that we probably don't have any power roles.

 

 

at that time, i at least, didn't expect him to suddenly become inactive (yeah... sorry about that mate).

I agree with the statements that rafay said. I believe 2 of the congressman agreed to lynch the inactives. Kevin and killgor are both high on my list because they voted to lynch the inactives. Something tells me they could be mafia.

I agree with Kevin. The only thing we know for sure is that there was at least one scum not in the congress.

you know, you can ask as to who voted or what reasons... there's no need to speculate. or do you know more than you should?

First of all it was Congress that voted to lynch Curufinwe or else he would have been still alive. Second I still think that there is one or two mafias there because one of them used a night kill to get rid of Kazicore, leaving the president vulnerable. 

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.

Mafia Setup:

2 Mafias

 

May be 2 of the congressmen could be scum.....

 

So if 2 of the congress were scum, who executed the scum's night-kill?

It wouldn't be possible?

That's what I was saying ...

Hmmm and another question if mafia was in one of them congressmen since we are not able to kill congressmen we are allowed to impeach them? Is it a similar process as if it happened to the president? Or is it different? 

That means at least one of Mariomario190, Big Ego, and Road2Victory is scum.

 

Vote for Congress: Electric Mango

 

I have 33% confidence he'll vote to lynch a scum.

 

i see a lot of false reasoning in here. the only things we know are:

 

1. Rafay - confirmed townie


not in congress:
2. mariomario190
5. Big Ego
6. Road To Victory


 
in congress:
4. KevinH
7. killgor
3. Electric Mango

 

 

and we also know that i all from congress would have been scum, there wouldn't have been a nk. so either the congress is made of townies or 1 or 2 of them are scum. now i find it highly unlikely for all the congressmen to be townies.

 

 

1. Rafay - confirmed townie

 

 

not in congress:

2. mariomario190

5. Big Ego

6. Road To Victory

 

Lets elect these 3 to congress. If there are no night kills then we know both of the scum is in this group.

Hmmm and another question if mafia was in one of them congressmen since we are not able to kill congressmen we are allowed to impeach them? Is it a similar process as if it happened to the president? Or is it different? 

No, but because they are re-elected daily if you think they are scum make sure they dont get voted in to office.

i made a mistake in my calculations. i don't know why but i keep making them as if there are 3 mafia players. anyway, from what we know so far, there can either be 1 mafia in the congressman camp and one mafia in the non-congressman camp or both mafia are in the non-congressman camp.

EM's plan sounds okay to me, although if it fails, it could fail hard.. but if it succeeds, it could succeed hard. We would be able to confirm 3 more townies that way, and narrow the Mafia to 2 of 3.

Although, EM could be the scum, and could know that the plan would fail, and fail hard.

So many variables.. so little time.

Rafay, what do you say? I know you are town, so I will follow your lead. Just don't wait too long.. we've only got another day or so.

not in congress:

2. mariomario190

5. Big Ego

6. Road To Victory

Lets elect these 3 to congress. If there are no night kills then we know both of the scum is in this group.

I sort of like that idea except that I think one of them should be lynched.

How about electing 2 of the 3 to Congress and have them lynch the 3rd?

i like kevin's idea more.

I'd have to agree, seems like an improvement over EM's plan.

Mod: May want to prod Mario, don't think he's posted yet D2.

I have poked him, we may need a replacement for him as he only posted D1

I do not want to be elected to congress. If you think I'm scum, why would I not want to be elected if I have a scum buddy. I am ESSENTIAL to the town and if you vote me to congress, that will not be good at all to the town. Anyone who is pro town or doc, PROTECT ME!

How can you say that when you already posted two posts already? 

 

It makes you look more suspicious. 

Ok Kevin should be our congressman then. Killgor and i can sit out this round.

I do not want to be elected to congress. If you think I'm scum, why would I not want to be elected if I have a scum buddy. I am ESSENTIAL to the town and if you vote me to congress, that will not be good at all to the town. Anyone who is pro town or doc, PROTECT ME!

 

 

 

uum... we have no docs and no other power roles. we need to figure stuff out within the mechanics of the game. not wanting to cooperate makes you look scummy. besides, if you're town you should want to go to congress where you can try to lynch scum.

But I can GIVE info on things; I have a power role that would be wasted if I were elected!

Shouldn't that be the other way around?

I don't know why you guys are giving him so much grief. The mod clearly stated that the town has power roles sprinkled in. He mentioned it twice in the set up. Looks suspicious for the two of you who doubted him.
