Pick Your Power X/Y Mafia

 

Mechanics

 

At the beginning of the game, there is a draft to determine the order for the bidding on roles.

 

Once this has happened, each player will send in the role they'd like to be. Only one role from each "slot" will be awarded.

As such, in the event multiple players select the same role (or the same "slot"), the player highest in the draft order wins the role, whilst the others remain Vanilla.

 

Roles are then distributed and Day 1 begins.

Throughout the bidding phases, the thread is locked, however, mafia may collude privately during this time and then again throughout the day.

 

 

Step 1: The Draft

 

Once alignments have been dealt out, each player must send a (whole) number back to the mod, with the lowest unique number winning the draft. Second place is awarded to the second lowest unique number and so on, until all unique numbers have been exhausted. Next placed on the list is the lowest doubled numbers, followed by the next lowest doubled numbers, and so on. Continue this same process for triples and quadruples.

In cases of multiple players selecting the same number, the higher placed between these players is chosen randomly.

 

Step 2: Bidding for Roles

 

Once the draft order has been determined, each player PM's the moderator of the game with the role they'd like to be. Roles are unisex, in the sense, that they can be selected by Mafia or Town. So, it's possible to have a Mafia 1-Shot Vig or a Town 1-Shot Vig, and so on.

 

Here are the list of roles players select from:

 

1)Night 3 Vigilante OR Vengeful

2)1-Shot Vigilante OR 1-Shot PGO

3)Cop OR 1-Shot Redirector

4)1-Shot Commuter OR 1-Shot Watcher

5)Doctor OR Roleblocker

6)Universal Backup OR Role Cop

7)Neighborizer OR Fruit Vendor

8)Jailkeeper OR Tracker

The Draft has Begun.

@ Brewers - I said that about Lego after it was obvious I'd be a top candidate. So no it's not that likely he was a scum partner I'm trying to protect. If anything, it'd be me trying to frame an innocent person so you'd lynch him after me.

@ VGM - I'd really prefer not to it will help scum.. but I guess if I'm lynched it'll be revealed anyway..

​Fuck it. I'm a tracker. I tracked Lego N1 and he visited Robert and that he must be the roleblocker since the flavor text represents actual night actions. I know that doesn't prove he's town and at best I was only 70/30 on him like I said but I watched him closely after that and things he said made me lean town towards him. 

I think at this point I would like some clarity on Canik's role via role claim. I know it doesn't show his affiliation, so why I never asked before.

NVM

I know some are gonna suspect Lego because he's a roleblocker and that's traditionally a scum role but roles don't =  alignment in this game. Not even Vanilla ones, despite what some falsely claim. *cough*TW*cough*

If Lego is indeed town, he could have picked that role group in an attempt to get the doctor role. Still, a roleblocker can be beneficial for the town, since if there's during the night, that would be a high chance of the roleblocker having found scum (not 100% as the mafia could refuse to night kill in an attempt to play mind games).

Lego visiting Robert... *re-reads the day 2 opener*

 

 

 

A tired writer was driving to his home, in his Prius, after a long day at work.

When he was stopped dead in his track.

 

11 hours later....

Robert2424 was commuting to his workplace, when he stopped his vehicle. A huge crowd had formed on the road. There was a Prius lying crushed on the road, but no sign of the driver.

 

With Robert stopping his vehicle, I can see where one might think that Lego roleblocked him. That said, Robert is not the driver of the Prius. The Prius belonged to Kitkat as he was the tired writer on his way home when he was stopped dead in his tracks.

 

 

you are a jailkeeper and you jailed Lego

 

 

if this means what the wiki says, I didn't get jailkeeped.

 

 

we can presume that Lego is at least not a paranoid gun owner.

 

 

nope

 

especially as that role is not possible in this game

Ok looks like I was wrong.

​Maybe but Lego did visit Robert and there aren't many other options for what he could be. And I know Robert isn't the driver of the Prius but he was still stopped 'by the crowd'. So they were both stopped in the story.

​In any case, Lego's visit to Robert didn't result in a death and it means they're probably not scum partners.

​Btw 13 minutes left to vote. 6 pm UTC = 12 pm CST.

Yep, you got it!

 

And that's why I asked previously who people thought the roleblocker should hit. So any more suggestions before day end?

I actually had that third on my list, but yep, I was hoping for Doctor. But my reasoning was, if I block someone and there is no night kill, then they are maybe 70% scum. 

And to confirm, yes I roleblocked Robert vgm. 

 

"stopped dead". i.e. he is dead.

 

wheras Robert was just stopped

Does anyone have 4 votes?

Come on people... vote already!

Canik might have.

 

So if someone could unvote

I believe him.

 

I was already reasonably certain he was town.

Lego - Out of the role options, 1 shot PGO means paranoid gun owner.

 

Does anyone have 4 votes?

No. Warrior and Canik are both at 3.

Thanks VGM. 

OK.

 

if MK does not show up does the day continue past the 13 minutes?

This game is super active rn lol. Fun!

Thanks VGM. 

OK.

You mean 5 minutes, and it shouldn't. Deadline time would be final. That said, we'd be in twilight. A lynch or non-lynch is final, but we could still discuss until the thread is locked for night 2.

If no one votes in the next two min I'll hammer someone in...but that does not mean I'm scum lol investigate me frigid if u don't trust me

right

 

 

 

What is the precise time, EST time zone we need to lynch by?

 

Still think TW is the lynch for today

hammer != scum

Vote: TW

I swear I'm not scum, investigate the shit out of me plz

:+1:

awesome

even if he is town then we can lynch Canik next

This last 5 minutes was the most active I've ever seen a mafia game, including the one on Mafia Scum.net where in lylo me and two other players spent about 10 pages in one hour, and PoE'd the scum team! 

MK is coming soon, I pinged him we got a lynch, to see the flip ASAP.

Okay cool.

As for your roleblock ability lego, it's hard to say. Maybe one of the people who were most vocal against The Warrior (if he flips town). Otherwise, maybe Rafay or SBG?

The Warrior a MAFIA PLAYER was Lynched... FLIP UNKOWN as MOD is MIA!

Thanks, any more suggestions before day end?

Cool I'm anxious to see the flip too. I really hope TW scum I'd hate think he's town and we were just so far off the same page. 

​And thanks Brewers <3

​You'll see I am town eventually, trust me. Maybe tonight. I am a potential target for scum since my role is rather powerful when combined with flavor text hints.

comon MK

As long as we translate the flavor texts correctly, I can see that. That said, night 2 is going to be interesting. With the roleclaims, that means we have no doctor so any three of the spilled power roles could be dead in the morning. Of course, regardless of power role, it has zero bearing on whether they're town or mafia with the way the game is set up.
