So begins YET another Beginner's Mafia. We will need 8 players that haven't played in a mass of mafias already (a few is fine though) and 2 people that will act as IC.
sidenote: If you are IC, feel free to play the game like you normally do, but be ready to explain about terms, game theory, and other questions.
I'd also appreciate it if a few others came in as commentators. How I envision it: at the start and end of each day, they sent a PM to me telling their views on the game: how everyone looks, and mistakes, ideas on how they would act during the situation. At the end of the game, the PMs will be posted.
The Rules:
You may NOT PM to anyone except to me or from one mafia member to another. Furthermore, ALL discussion about this game, even indirectly, can only occur in this thread.
All votes must be colored red. To avoid confusion, only use that color when you are voting for someone. You must also Unvote before you vote for another. That was an issue last game so I'll stress again, if you do NOT unvote, your new vote will NOT count. No Lynch votes are allowed.
Days will last for 3 days or until the conversation dies down. Nights will last 24 hours or until all night roles have been sent to me. The deadline will be posted regularly and I retain the ability to hurry the deadline for inactivity or extend the deadline if enough request it. Note that any deadline that falls on a weekend will be pushed back to the following Monday.
Upon deadline, the player with the most votes will be lynched. If there is a tie, there will be no lynch.
Once dead, you may not speak or PM anyone about the game, living or otherwise. A Dead chat will be made available.
Mafia will be given their own Chat to speak to one another once roles have been sent.
Bolded sentences can be used to catch my attention. Italics used by me is flavor and is just there to be interesting.
Lastly, do NOT quote my PM text and do NOT edit your posts (you can double post if you need to)
You can, of course, ask any questions you may have.
Roles:
Townsperson: The basic town role. Your goal is to help the town lynch all of the mafia players. You win as long as the town wins.
Mafia: The basic antagonist role. You and the other Mafia players work together to kill off the townspeople. During the day, you pretend to be normal townspeople and voting on who is to be lynched. During the night, you will tell me the name of the player you wish to kill along with which of you will kill them. You win once you have greater then or equal to the number of town aligned players.
Mafia Roleblocker: Similar to the mafia. However, in nights when you are not the one assigned to kill, you may choose one person for yourself. The person you choose will be unable to perform their night action.
Cop: An honest cop, he may choose one player each night to investigate. He will then learn if that player is Mafia or Town.
Doctor: The doctor may choose one player each night to protect from the mafia's night kill.
