Vengeful Mafia X: Game over, Town wins.
« on: May 04, 2015, 04:46:44 pm »

The time has come for the Aztec people to sacrifice to the gods. The whole city gathers as five captured prisoners-of-war are brought to the temple. and the gate is shut. Tradition dictates that only 2 of the 5 need to be sacrificed, but the Priests have spoken to the gods and discovered that one of the five prisoners was a rebellious king in disguise. And another was his trusted servant. The Gods said that they would be pleased if only the King was sacrificed, so the priests gave the prisoners a bargain. The prisoners were told that they would get to choose which one would be sacrificed, and if the king was sacrificed, the rest would be set free. The 5 prisoners stared at each other. The air was tense.



Vengeful Mafia is simple.

Setup:
*1 mafia godfather
*1 mafioso
*3 vanilla townies

Rules are the standard (no PMs, use red to vote, etc.) except for the following:

*Day ends on hammers only, with one exception: if the game gets to a point of four players (by hanging the mafioso on day one), and three of the remaining four cannot achieve consensus, I will end the day if 48 hours have gone by without a vote change, and the person with the majority votes will be lynched.
*The game is nightless.  There is no mafiakill.
*Upon death, a player must post their Role PM, unmodified except for removing the scumbuddy and scumchat link.
*If a townie is lynched D1, they get to immediately vengekill a player of their choice.  Vengekills should be in red.  Talking between the lynch and the vengekill is allowed, but discouraged.  Once the kill's done, the game immediately proceeds to D2.
*If the godfather is lynched (not vengekilled), town instantly wins.

Lurking:
Post at least once per 24 hours (weekends counts as 0 hours).  Lurkers will be prodded for 24 hours away, and modkilled for 48 hours without posting.

Players (5/5):
Jack A T: VT
TheDarkStar: Mafia Godfather (lynched day 2)
Deus Asmoth: Mafia goon (lynched day one)
roo: VT
Peradon: VT

Replacements (1/5)

In.  Been a while since I played one of these.  Pretty much what I've been feeling like: something reasonably simple.

Eh, I might as well In as a player rather than as a replacement. I should have time.

Setup as it is: assuming random lynches/vigkill, about 60% mafia win chance, 40% town win chance.  Setup as you suggest: about 40% maf/60% town.

About equally imbalanced in opposite directions.  I prefer the 2 scum variant, though: more interesting interactions, I think.

More specifically, the current setup is exactly 60% scum 40% town, while your suggested setup is 73.333333...% town, 26.666666666...% scum.

Not sure how you're getting that for roo's variant.  Extra vigkill?

The possibilities I see for 1 scum/4 town:
*20% lynch scum D1
*80% town lynch D1 * 25% chance of maf vigkill
*80% town lynch D1 * 75% town vigkill * 33% maf lynch
*80% town lynch D1 * 75% town vigkill * 66% town lynch

I slightly screwed up, yes.  I missed the vigkill hitting town thing.

I wouldn't even think this game would last long enough for a replacement to be warranted, but I'll probably be found to be wrong on this.

If nobody else wants the last spot within the next 24 hours, I'll go ahead and take it so the game can start.

Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

I think of it was played out scum might win more often with only one mafia.
