*This game will begin after Sykotic's Adventure Time mafia (If that is still happening. If not, it's happening right after Shake's current game. I typically am a firm believer in only having sign-up's open for one game at a time, but it's been a while since Syk updated us on Adventure Time so I figured I would open just in case.*
In 1957, a young boy named Jason drowns near Camp Crystal Lake. In 1958, two counselors are murdered by someone. In 1979, a group of counselors reopen camp crystal lake. During that time, the counselors are getting killed one-by-one by a mysterious person who would later be revealed as Pamela Vorhees, Jason's mother.
Months after Alice Hardy, the sole survivor of the Camp Crystal Lake massacre of 79', beheads psycho killer/mother Pamela Voorhees at Camp Crystal Lake, Alice is still traumatized because of the murders. But there is one problem. Mrs. Voorhee's son Jason never actually drowned and never died. So he saw Alice decapitate Mrs. Voorhees. Jason finds Alice soon and murders her. Five years later, it is now the year 1984, and a new Summer Camp is opened at Packanack Lodge right near Jason's home, Camp Crystal Lake. As teenagers in the camp start snooping around Camp Crystal Lake, they start getting killed violently one by one.
The game is composed of two teams: CAMPCOUNSELORS (town) and JASON (Mafia). The objective of the JASON is to eliminate all the CAMPCOUNSELORS without themselves being eliminated. The objective of the CAMPCOUNSELORS is to identify the JASON aligned players and thwart them. This will be a pretty strait forward game that isn't going to break itself in an attempt to reinvent the wheel. There is one big twist that will not affect the actual game play mechanics whatsoever so that shouldn't be a concern to anyone.
During the game, some players will be declared eliminated. Dead players are no longer 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. If you have abilities to use during those phases, make sure they are sent in DURING those phases. Night abilities will resolve at the end of the night... basically, a cop-like role will not receive intel until the phase OR until there is no conceivable way they won't get said intel. Whatever comes first. That's just a hypothetical example.
Basics [Revised rules written by TGO and JIGGY]
1.) The GAME MOD 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 if your role specifically allows night posting.
3.) JASON (MAFIA) -aligned people know -- for the most part -- who is town aligned and who is mafia aligned. The CAMP COUNSELORS (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 could potentially fit 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. I consider it ok to post that you may know who someone's character is... but naming said character is too far. Also, please do not ask people questions specific to a character you have in mind. This game is deliberately set up so that it's difficult to map characters to abilities. There are NPCs included in the story to make this murkier.
If I catch anyone breaking this rule, you will be mod-killed and out the game instantly.
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 are chosen randomly.
14.) Have fun. Any questions, don't hesitate PM'ing me or (if it is allowed) asking in the thread.
