Here we are after an almost year-long break, can't believe it's been so long and so it's high time we return to this great game. I've thought a bit about this and we'll do my modified version of knockout's idea to increase activity and basically get everyone better at being townies We will have masons, a doctor and maybe two others: the joker and a new role known as the lookout, suggested by trekbmc.
I also hope that once again we will be invited to the Mafia Championship, where a representative from each mafia-playing forum gets to go, this is in May and I'd love our best player in this edition who wants to go to represent us.
The purpose of this game is to be a smaller scale community game than BB or The Amazing Race, but with just as much fun. It will be tactics based rather than the HoH or Roadblock challenges other games may have As always thanks a lot to Kritzo for the base (and most) of this rules write-up
Rules
§1: The game is led by a moderator (me), who undisputed will make all the decisions of the game. There will probably be just this one thread for everything.
The game is played in a specific thread for this, and it is not allowed whatsoever, to discuss this game outside this thread, except in chatzies you may make within your mafia.
[There are two teams in a simple game: The town and the mafia. There are more townies (pro-towns) than members of the mafia (anti-towns), but the townies do not know much at all. They are usually helped by townies with so-called power roles ex. a detective or a doctor (what their specific powers are, is described at the bottom). The members of the mafia know each other’s role. The mafia has a common role, that is to decide who to kill in the nights. The name of the person to be killed is sent in a PM to me.
The game is divided in two phases. Day and night. The players have to discussed who to lynch in the daytime, and before the deadline of the day (sunset), the players have agreed to lynch someone. In the nighttime the power roles do their job of either killing someone (mafia) or checking someone’s alignment (detective). The nights are usually shorter than the days.
Lynchings:
§2: The players decide to lynch one person a day. Who this is, is determined by voting in the gamethread. Every participant has one vote, and the person with most votes will be lynched at the end of the day. If it is a tie between two people, The person with the longest-standing final vote will be lynched, i.e. if jandal has four lynches and the fourth was at 4pm, and Kritzo has four lynches and the fourth was at 6pm, jandal is lynched. This doesn't count for a tie between a person and no lynch, in this case there is no lynch. When you are voting, vote with a bold text, like this: “Lynch jandal7”, and remember to leave no doubt about your vote when voting whatsoever. If you decide to change your mind it is the last vote that you make that counts as your vote. Basically you can vote as many times as you like. There are also the option of: “Lynch no one”.
IF 16 OR MORE (over half of the participants) vote for the same person, that person is lynched immediately, and the night will start.
The end of the game:
§3: The pro-towns win, when all the members of the mafia are either killed or lynched.
The anti-towns (mafia) wins, when there are equal members of the anti-town and pro-town.
Behaving:
§4.1: When you are dead, you are dead. You are not allowed to give information about your role/other’s role to the players still in the game. If you are so eager to do this, ask ME, the moderator, and I will take a look at it.
§4.2: It is strictly forbidden to screenshot or quote my PMs. You do not have to PROVE, who you are, but only persuade people to believe you. As of this, it is not allowed EITHER, to create false screenshots or make up wrong quotations from me the moderator.
§4.3: If you do not agree with my decision, then write it in a PM to me, and not in the thread. It is, however, allowed to let others know about it, WHEN THE GAME IS OVER.
§4.4: Try not to leave the game out of nowhere.
§4.5: Do not delete or edit your posts. When you have posted something, it will stay as it has been posted, and if I find out that you have cheated, you are out of the game.
§4.6: Be active. It is always more fun to participate in a game, where people are active.
§4.7: If you know that you will not be able to lynch/participate in the game for some days, let me, the moderator, know.
§4.8: Don’t offer something for information IRL. That is just not cool.
§4.9: NOT NEW BUT PLEASE DO THIS: At night you are "asleep", even if you have night roles. This means no talking from the end of the day to the start of the next day. You will be warned and no real punishments unless you're being persistent and just a dick about it.
30 participants
1 Godfather
1 Terrorist
4 Mafia Goons
1 Joker
2 Masons
1 Doctor
1 Lookout
19 Townies
Will be cut down in an order I will announce at the time.
The roles of the game with a description:
PRO TOWN
Townie – You are a townie, and have no special “powers” whatsoever. You win the game with the town, when all the members of the mafia has been lynched or killed.
Doctor – You are a doctor, and are able to “rescue” one participant every night. That means that, that person can’t be killed by the mafia. And newagain last edition, it will not be revealed who that person is. You win the game with the town, when all the members of the mafia has been lynched or killed.
Masons – You are Mason with participant x. You are able to communicate with this person outside the game. You win the game with the town, when all the members of the mafia has been lynched or killed.¨
NEW: Lookout - You are the town lookout, who can watch over a player during the night and see who visited them. This one is up for discussion but I like it as they have no proof they are right You win the game with the town, when all the members of the mafia has been lynched or killed.
ANTI TOWN
Godfather – You are godfather, and the first time you are checked by the detective, your alignment appears to be good. However, if you are checked a second time, your true alignment is revealed. You attend the “mafia meeting”. You win the game with the mafia, when the amount of mafias are equal to the amount of townies.
Terrorist – You are terrorist, and may bomb yourself + another person during the game. This happens by writing BOMB X in the game-thread. You attend the mafia meetings. You win the game with the mafia, when the amount of mafias are equal to the amount of townies.
Mafia Goons – You are a Mafia Goon, and have no special powers. You attend the mafia meetings. You win the game with the mafia, when the amount of mafias are equal to the amount of townies.
OTHER
Joker - You are on the side of neither the town nor the mafia - your objective is to be lynched. You win if you are lynched at any point, but you lose if you survive or are killed. Please note the Joker effectively is playing themself, their winning does not stop the game and mafia vs town goes on.
General information about this game:
”Open” setup with 30 participants
The player’s alignment is revealed when lynched or killed.
“No lynch” is allowed.
No PMs, got something to say, do it in the thread!
If you have been muted please adhere at the behest of being booted out (potentially after warning).
No other threads than the threads I make.
You vote by writing Lynch X, and there must be no doubt whatsoever, who you vote for.
CHANGED: Deadlines are a set limit. This will mean the cycle will be longer (120 hour days 24-48 hour nights (up for discussion)) but there will be no extensions purely for discussion unless there is a major event late in the day (gunshot mostly). For night roles I accept orders for a couple of nights in advance if you will be away for a weekend, etc.
The registration for this game is based on the 'first come, first served' principle. So hurry up! Or don't, 30 people isn't likely But then again, you never know
Feel free to ask any questions about the game, and discuss changes. I will answer them as best as I can.
YOU REGISTER BY WRITING THAT YOU ARE IN IN THIS THREAD!
Have fun

No need to apologise - hillis has done much worse for entire games
With 12 people if we get one more sign-up I'll set a deadline for them to be in so we can start - won't be too short as I've got a few assignments this coming week and won't have loads of time to set it up anyway.

If you want to speed things up: I can send out the roles... dont worry, i would give myself just a basic townie role and nothing fancy...
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters!
