With the ending of the last Beginner's Mafia, I've decided to keep a good tradition rolling.
Well, I'll just copy-paste the obligatory statement:
Welcome to Beginner's Mafia! This is the sixteenth run of our Beginner's Mafia series. In Beginner's Mafia, you will be pitted up with a Town IC (Inexperienced Challenged) who will help you play the game, and will be just as clueless, if not more so, about the setup as you, and a Mafia IC, who will be helping out the Mafia.
In Mafia, you are divided into two parts: Town and Mafia:
If you are Town, your goal is to lynch the Mafia. You do this by convincing others that one of the group is scum, and getting enough votes on them to lynch them.
If you are Mafia, your goal is to kill off the Town until there is an equal number of them to you by getting them to lynch other Town or by killing them. You are given a kill each Night to kill any player in the game.
Each Day, you all vote to lynch a player. Each Night, you send in your actions. The cycle continues until one side wins. Days are 72 hours and nights are 48. Weekends count for zero hours.
You may not PM other players. The mafia will have a place to talk to themselves.
In this setup, there are the possibility of extra roles. These roles are Cop and Doctor for Town, and Roleblocker and Godfather for Mafia.
A Cop inspects any player at Night. They are told that player's alignment.
A Doctor may protect any player at Night. This stops that player from being killed.
A Roleblocker stops an extra role from using an action. This stops Doctors and Cops but does nothing for Townies.
A Godfather makes Cops get Town for their alignment, instead of Mafia.
There is a 50% chance for any of these roles to show up. It is possible to end up with no extra roles.

Oh yeah, and things like editing your posts, revealing or quoting your PM's, or talking after you've been lynched or Night Killed are not allowed. This is a mafia staple rule that is often taken for granted, but don't forget it!
One day you all wake up in your sleepy little town, to discover that Every single resident apart from you nine are dead in mysterious circumstances! Even worse, it is scrawled across the church and town hall that two people among you are- in fact- part of the mafia, and are planning to kill you all.
Well Dang.
Begin.
Aheh. For the newbies-
This is Day One.
During this time, you can vote to have someone lynched.
I'm sure Vector will come along with Dakaran's bible pretty soon, so follow that, and you'll be on your way to killing scum.
