Looking for between 14-20 players. Doesn't have to be a big game but I am more than happy doing a 20 player epic so long as the players are committed and not just modkill fodder. This will be a basic mafia game, played mostly with standard roles and standard rules. As such, there will be no "Outcome Votes" and other such mechanics that deviate away from the basic mafia game style.
BASIC RULES: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mafia_(party_game)
The game is composed of two teams: X-MEN (town) and The BROTHERHOOD (Mafia). The objective of the BROTHERHOOD is to kill off all the X-MEN without themselves being killed. The objective of the X-MEN is to identify the BROTHERHOOD and kill them.
During the game, some players will be declared "dead". Dead players are not part of the game and are not allowed to converse, confer, or otherwise commiserate with living players. When the rules say "players", they mean living players only.
The game proceeds in alternating phases of day and night, about which more anon.
Basics [Revised rules written by TGO and JIGGY]
1.) The GAME MOD is runs this. If the GAME MOD says don't post -- unless your role says otherwise -- then don't post.
2.) At night, don't post. If you do, you will be mod-killed. This does not apply to NIGHT POSTERS
3.) The BROTHERHOOD (MAFIA) -aligned people know -- for the most part -- who is town aligned and who is mafia aligned. The X-MEN (town-aligned people) -- for the most part -- do not know who else is town aligned and who is mafia aligned.
4.) The objective of the game is simple: If you're town aligned, then you want to vote to lynch/ban the non-town-aligned players. If you're mafia aligned, then you want to keep your identity hidden from the town while surviving and persuading town members to lynch/ban their own. If the mafia team has as many or more members still in the game as the town-aligned team, then the mafia win. If the townies lynch/ban all the mafia members, then the town wins.
5.) Each day, you will vote on who to lynch/ban from the forum. It's majority vote -- with 12 alive, it takes seven votes to lynch -- but if it takes too long and the game is dragging, I will create a time limit where the person(s) with the most votes is lynched/banned. The town wants to lynch/ban people who are mafia. The mafia want the opposite.
6.) When you vote, you MUST bold your vote and format it a specific way.
Official Vote: TGO
If you do not bold your vote, it will not count. I'm serious. I'm not going to read everything. Some days I'll just be behind on the game/posts and will try updating the vote count by skimming through to see the bolded votes. If it isn't bolded, I'll miss it.
7.) DO NOT ROLE REVEAL. Each of you got a specific role that fits in with the story/theme of this Mafia game. That role, even the character, could hint at your alignment (whether town or mafia). It is bush league to reveal your town-aligned role and ask others to do the same. Play the game the way it was meant to be played.
If I catch anyone breaking this rule, you will be mod-killed and out the game.
8.) DO NOT discuss anything about the game -- the events, the bans/lynches, the voting, even the story -- outside of this thread. This includes the shoutbox, PMs, Facebook, etc. Some outlets I can manage and oversee. Others I can't I just ask you to have integrity and be honest. The game is so much more fun when it stays INSIDE the forum. Winning and losing isn't more important than the overall experience for everyone involved.
If I catch anyone breaking this rule, you will be mod-killed and out the game.
9.) Do not PM other members UNLESS your role allows it with specific players.
10.) I will not manage activity level and how many posts people make. I'm just going to leave it to you guys. However, if some people aren't being active and participating in the game to my preference, then I will warn them. If it continues, I will try finding a replacement OR mod-kill the player.
Please, whatever your role, be active. The most enjoyable part of this game is simply playing it IN THE THREAD. Participate and become part of it. It's way more fun that way.
11.) When you die, don't post any more. I don't care how much you reeeeeally want to get that last, long-winded, all-revealing post out there to fuck the mafia and save the town. Don't do it. There will be other mafia games, and if you do it, I won't let you play again in any I host. Just chill out, let it go and watch from the sidelines. Don't talk about the game in other parts of the forum, either. I get that it's competitive. If you're killed, you're killed. It doesn't mean you're bad at the game. Just means you got unlucky.
12.) NO EDITING. You edit a post and you're modkilled.
13.) Roles were chosen randomly. I want to see how the game goes without knowing most players' styles and what suits them best.
14.) Have fun. Any questions, don't hesitate PM'ing me or (if it is allowed) asking in the thread.
NOW ACCEPTING SIGN-UP's. GAME WILL LAUNCH 5/17/17
