Infamous Cybercriminal Mastermind Arrested
January 1st, 2030
A man believed to be the head of notorious hacker group Pseudonym was arrested in the early hours of this morning. Operating under the moniker "Leafsnail" he allegedly orchestrated a series of daring attacks on various private and government targets.
"I can confirm that we have arrested one man on suspicion of cybercriminal offences", said Patrick Chalmers of Scotland Yard in a statement. "This was following an anonymous tipoff posted on popular imageboard 4san."
The message, which contained the home address and real name of the man along with "incontrovertible evidence" of his guilt, caused a huge stir on the internet when it was posted yesterday. When he was arrested the suspect was already making arrangements to flee the country.
When Pseudonym was founded ten years ago its stated intention was to fight corruption and corporate greed. However, recently it is believed that the group has changed tack, with attacks on banks and alleged blackmail attempts thought to be purely for financial gain. Some mysterious injuries to former hackers are also often attributed to the group, although without evidence.
"We suspect that some elements of Pseudonym are unhappy with the direction the group has taken," said Chalmers. "They outed the man they thought was responsible for this. Right now we believe that the group is in turmoil, with its leaders unable to tell which of its members are still loyal."
This game is a 13 player open setup:
Masons and Mafia.
The roles in this game are as follows.
4
mafia members4
masons5
towniesMafia members win if they make up at least half of the remaining players in the game.
Townies and masons win if all mafia members are eliminated.
There is no night phase so the mafia do not get a nightkill, but instead they have another ability. At any time any mafia member can send in a daykill (or "dox") action against a town player. If that player is a mason, they are eliminated. However, if that player is a townie then the mafia member is eliminated instead (in this case no information is given about who the mafia member targetted).
Mafia members and masons are both told who their partners are, but do not have any private means of communication with each other. No private communication is allowed in this game.
The deadline will be set to one week after the day starts. No extensions are possible and no lynch is not an option.
If a majority vote on a player is reached that player is lynched immediately. If no majority is reached by the alloted deadline then a plurality lynch will occur. If there is a tie then any mafia member can send me a PM to choose who dies.
Deadlines are strict. You can post in the thread at all times providing you are alive, but if you make a vote between the deadline and the modpost ending the day it will not count. The same applies if you make a vote after a player is hammered or daykilled but before the modpost about it.
After a daykill the deadline all players will automatically unvote and the deadline will be reset to a week away.
In the case of multiple daykills being sent in in quick succession the one which was submitted earliest will be resolved first.
