Lol.. Well that was .. bleh.

How long is the night period? Are Townie's required to do anything at night?

I think it's either 24 or 48. And no. Townies do nothing.

Sheriff investigates one player.
Mafia chooses someone to kill.


God, I wish I was sheriff now. I would find that actually hilarious.

I will look into it, but as it stands, there were actually 8 votes for cheese by EOD.

Zerk did not unvote in bold and red so it didn't count. Also, once 7 votes is reached, it is automatically EOD and no more votes count. Since Zerks unvote was after the 7th vote on cheese, it wouldn't have counted anyways.

Damn your right. Sinny switched at the last moment. Why Sinny. :mad:

Okay. So it's lynch either way.

That was an error on my part. I forgot to delete your last (invalid) vote on cheese, but yes, as the vote count says, your vote was on hado.

Well, I personally have lots to say... But as we are not allowed...
The night coming is perfect timing for me as I'm busy straight from this morning through to Sunday.

WIN CONDITIONS
Towns win condition is to eliminate all members of the mafia.
Mafias Win condition is to have a majority in any one group or nothing can prevent this.




ORDER OF NIGHT ACTIONS
Every Night action below overrides the previous (where applicable)

Night Kill
Bodyguard
Neapolitian
Friendly Neighbor
Role Cop
Cop
Follower
Watcher
Tracker
Voyeur
Motion Detector
Rolestopper
Commuter


MECHANICS:
GAME PHASES:
Each Game day is 4 days.
For the first third of the day, Day Phase: I (DP: I) (24 hours) everyone votes on what Group will be chosen.
The last 2/3 of the day, Day Phas: II (DP: II) (48 hours), the group that was chosen will have a player lynched from that group.
In the event that a majority for what Group is chosen to lynch from is chosen before the end of that half of the day, that time will be added to the rest of the day to vote on a lynch.
Night Phase (NP) is one day (24 hours).

OTHER MECHANICS:
Mafia do not have Day Chat
All Votes are decided by a majority (>50%). Once a majority is chosen, not future votes will count.
In the event that I am not here to close the thread upon a lynch, it will be twilight until I can close the thread.
Players role and alignment are given upon death.

SPECIAL MECHANICS:
When all members of the mafia are lynched from a group, the remaining members of that will join the remaining group(s) as evenly as possible but will be random what players will join what group where applicable.
I will be telling all the players what groups all players belong to at the beginning of DP: I for all days.
The group that was chosen will have a player lynched from that group.
The group that is chosen to lynch from cannot vote for lynch.
The same group may be chosen on consecutive days.
Mafia has to lynch from the Group that was chosen to lynch from.
All night actions proceed as normal.

RULES OF CONDUCT:
NO OUTSIDE COMMUNICATION ABOUT THE GAME (Ex. skype, pms, other threads, phones calls and the like.)
NO QUOTING ANYTHING FROM OUTSIDE THE GAME
NO FAKE QUOTING
NO EDITING OR DELETING POSTS
NO EXCESSIVE PERSONAL ATTACKS
(I will be the one to decide that)
NO POSTING ANY LANGUAGE BUT ENGLISH
LIMIT FLUFF POSTING TO A BARE MINIMUM
(I will be the one to decide that)
YOU MUST POST AT LEAST 3 TIMES EACH 24 HOUR PERIOD
YOU ARE TO PLAY TO YOUR WIN CONDITION. IF I THINK YOU ARE NOT AND I WARN YOU AND YOU DO IT ANYWAYS, I WILL EXPLAIN IN DETAIL TO THE MODS WHAT YOU HAVE DONE AND YOU WILL BE SUBJECTED TO PUNISHMENT IF THE MODS AGREE WITH ME
HAVE FUN!!!

You can show your interest in playing in this game here.

I hope you don't mind me editing. It would be very easy for someone to come here for a rules clarification and read the set for your upcoming game.

The upcoming game seems to jump up in complexity a whole lot.

I wanted to just sit out the first game to get a feel for it, and join the next game, but if the next game is that chaotic, I think I'll want to sit that one out too.

Also:
LIMIT FLUFF POSTING TO A BARE MINIMUM (I will be the one to decide that)

Punishment, eh? Sounds kinky. What kind of punishment will you be dishing out?

The current setup is almost the simplest possible. It's good for learning with. The setup he has in mind for his next game seems more complex than anything I've played, but I've got limited experience. I know for a fact that games can get absolutely bizarre for the more experienced. There seems like there's a strong culture for people to tinker with game rules, adding ever increasing layers of complexity.

For example:
- hydra is a variant where each player shares a partner who they share their avatar with. So you need to read two people.
- there are variants with competing mafia teams
- there are variants with one man teams called 'serial killers', who's win condition is everyone else dying
- There are commonly counter-roles used to balance blue roles. A medic protects someone from NK or vigilante bullets, a jailer does the same but also prevents that person taking actions etc, a godfather mafia always looks like a town to investigators.
- There are modifiers to roles that players could be unaware of. You could be a cop, but you're insane, so the result of your investigation will be the exact opposite of the truth!

This is all pretty standard stuff. This game can get really fkn hectic! It's pretty insane that even in vanilla mafia, the game's most basic form, that such an enormous level of complexity can be achieved.

I'd consider playing another vanilla game, but I think this seems too complex for me right now.

I agree with the general consensus here. I'm down to play more, but I would prefer to keep it at (or at least closer to) the vanilla rules for now.

...less talkin', more dyin'!!


Jesus. Trying to read the mafia game thread, I think that's more conversation than all the other forum threads combined here in the meanwhile. And I feel like I'm sitting through a two-hour murder mystery and it's 1:15 hours in without anyone actually dying yet except by stupid stuff like choking on a chicken bone or pitching out an attic window five stories due to tripping on a cat.

Don't worry, Day 2 begins in 3 or so hours. I'm guessing this day will be more active than the last.

(And to be fair, that cat came out of nowhere.)




Also, as a note for everyone, I've noticed a lot of people in the game and in the spectator room referring to me as "cheese."

I am Cheeseumpuffs. We already have a member called cheese.

I think I'd prefer to play another generic game than a game with lots of roles. For newer players as I think most people are, there's a lot to learn and keep up with already.

If people get confused they're less likely to contribute and that just makes the games sucky.

Generic game is good. If you want to make it more complex, introduce a role or 2 at a time. Bodyguard and 1 other is usually a good approach.

In the games I've played in bars, the first game has generally been a vanilla game, then the second introduces some new roles, then later games are a shitstorm. This has generally been successful.

TBH, I didn't expect forum mafia to be so damn hectic! But it's definitely good fun.

Yeah, sometimes it gets a little intense, especially at LyLo.

Yeah simple games are good. Generally you want to play around four simple games before moving to anything more complex. Where I played, these were called your nooby games.

It was a joke :3

It is killing me having the bolded message notification though.

Note to self: In mafia I can tilt people super hard by flooding their inbox with messages they're not allowed to open.

I'm going to bed now. I promise not to send any more messages. Don't let the game see it.

As much as I'd love everyone to hear my thoughts, I am dead, I shouldn't be allowed to sway any opinions in either direction.

You guys are something else. I just don't want any kind of feud because of some stupid game. Cheese, if you could please stop... whatever it is your doing with Hado, that would be amazing.
