Okay, this was copy pasted from the Religion mafia thread.

Spoiler: Rules (click to show/hide)

The backdrop would be one of an internet flame war on a forum very much like our own. It has gotten out of control, with death threats and such being thrown about casually. The senior members of the forum as well as the moderators have come together to put a stop to it and bring order back to the forum by banning the offending parties. Unfortunately, the offending parties are also the senior members, and they have their own agenda...

Each player is given a religion at the start of the game. The goal for each religion is to become the dominant religion of the forum, through the elimination or conversion of all non-agnostic players who are not of their own religion. Non-religious players simply have to survive until the conflict has passed.

As with most Mafia games, the game is split into "Day" and "Night" phases.

During the "Day" phase (which may or may not actually occur during the Day), the members get together and vote for who to Ban. Banned players are removed from the game, but may still participate in their associated Chat.

During the "Night" phase, players with special roles act to advance their cause (the exact details of which vary based on the roles). Characters who are removed from the game via the night phase are considered indisposed, and may not post in their associated Chat. As a consolation, they are allowed to post in a Dead Chat.

Spoiler: Religion Roles (click to show/hide)

• Prophet
      Belief: Religious (May not be converted)
      Rules: So long as the Prophet is alive, all attempts to convert members of same religion will fail.
      Victory: Religion wins
• Zealot
      Belief: Hardcore Religious (May not be Converted; Converter dies if attempted)
      Rules: May track down one person per night and arrange for their death.  May not kill if the religion chooses to recruit that night (limited bandwidth).
      Victory: Religion wins
• E-Evangelist
      Belief: Religious (May not be converted)
      Rules: May convert one person into their religion per night.  If the target has a religion, their religion (and corresponding victory condition) changes to the new religion. If the target has no religion, they obtain a weak level of belief in the new religion. Agnostics turn into Recruits.  May not convert if the religion chooses to kill that night (limited bandwidth). If two E-Evangelists target the same person on the same night, that person becomes an Atheist, and is no longer able to be converted.
      Victory: Religion wins
• Recruit
      Belief: Weak Religious (May converted, unless their religion has a Prophet)
      Rules: Convinced of their new religion but weak of faith, their belief is based on the faith's ability to take care of them. Has no special powers.
      Victory: Survive

Spoiler: Town Roles (click to show/hide)

• Agnostic
     Belief: Agnostic (May be converted)
     Rules: Unsure of their standing within the religious war, they take no direct side. Has no special powers. When converted, becomes a Recruit.
     Victory : Survive
• Mercenary Hacker
   Belief: Atheist (May not be converted)
   Rules: If in play, religion factions are given the option to ask the merc (through the host) to kill a single target at night.  That night, the merc may choose to carry out one such request (if more than one is made, the mercenary may choose which to carry out).
   Victory: All Religions reduced to at most one core power role (Zealot, Prophet, or E-Evangelist). When this occurs, the Merc is removed from the game.
• Troll
   Belief: Agnostic (May be converted, victory condition and powers do not change when converted)
   Rules: Once per Day, may make a personal attack against a player elsewhere on the forum. That player becomes so caught up with making a responding flame that they may not take any actions on the subsequent night.
   Victory: Survive.
  
• Armchair Theologian
   Belief: Agnostic (May be converted, conversion attempts after the first are voluntary, and immune to the Prophet. When converted, powers are retained)
   Rules: Capable of discovering the belief of two players per night. May use up both discoveries to determine level of belief as well.
   Victory: Survive. If converted, condition changes to "Religion Wins."
  
• FBI Hacker
   Belief: Agnostic (May be converted, victory condition and powers do not change when converted)
   Rules: Attracted by the death threats, the FBI Hacker may choose one person per night to Guard. If a Zealot or Merc targets the person being Guarded, the attempt fails and the FBI Hacker is made aware of who made the attempt.
   Victory: Survive -OR- all Zealots and Merc removed from the game.
  
• Moderator
   Belief: Agnostic (May be converted)
   Rules: A Moderator's vote counts double when determining who to Ban. A Moderator cannot be Banned unless the Admin votes for them.
   Victory: Ban at least three non-agnostic players -AND- Survive. If converted, condition changes to "Ban at least three players of opposing faith -AND- Religion Wins."
  
• Admin
   Belief: Agnostic (May be converted)
   Rules: If they vote for a Moderator, their vote counts for double. Otherwise, their vote counts as normal. The Admin cannot be Banned, but may be NK'd. During the Day, they may prevent one person from being Banned. Usage of either Ban-prevention power reveals role.
   Victory: Survive. If converted, condition changes to "Religion Wins."

Um,  I was actually referring to this Xbox game actually. I didn't even know I made a zombie apocyalse game.

[Kashyyk]

THat looks awesome!

[Pandarsenic]

So full of win.

Fixed.

[Kashyyk]

I see no bold!

[Cheeetar]

This will definitely fail, and I am most certainly not joining.

[Xegeth]

I'm in.

[dakarian]

This game will either be epic win or a failtactular.  So long as its interesting to someone I'll be happy.

I'll join

Sidenotes:  LOVE the new theme and power roles (Troll, LOL!).  It just plain sounds kickin.

Sidenote 2: Someone on the other thread said "Why recruit if the recruits don't pick up a 'Religion wins' goal:  A few reasons:

1. the recruit still counts as part of the religion.  Thus if you have 2 members and 2 recruits while there's only 3 opponents left you win. 

2. The chance of picking up a power role.

Thus there's good reasons for the religion to want to keep their recruit.  It's just that, similar to the real thing, simply 'picking them up' isn't enough to guarantee loyalty.  You need to actually speak to the player and get them convinced of your side.  They won't be willing to just betray you to another religion anyway, though, so long as the zealots exist (since now they have a nice "kill me" sticker put on them).

Btw, Kashyyk: Did you keep the "Zealot can kill their own recruits" part?  I doubt anyone would USE it but it would make for a cute way to keep your recruits in line.

I want. That music is epic.

[overlordFT]

I am so in >:^D

[Kashyyk]

Dakarian: Yes I intend to keep the 'Zealot may execute it's own members' rule. I also agree on the epic win or failtastic opinion.


to everyone else: The interest is good, but I alsways wan't more players.
