Paranormal Mafia - Round 17 - Game Over!
« on: November 01, 2010, 03:12:47 pm »

Starting up sign-ups for Paranormal 17.

For anyone who hasn't played it, Paranormal Mafia is a very role-heavy version of Mafia. I strongly suggest that you read some of the previous games to get a feel for how the game goes.

Minimum players is 12, max is 16.

Player List
  • Zathras - Human Psychic Warden
  • JanusTwoface - Human Mad Scientist
  • Toaster - Exterminator
  • Jim Groovester - Human Kook/Townsperson
  • Org - Human Medium
  • Pandarsenic - Tough Doppelganger
  • Mr.Person - Human Agent
  • webadict - Doppelganger Leader
  • Ottofar - Doppelganger Guardian
  • SHAD0Wdump - Human Telepath
  • Mysteriousbluepuppet - Human Heroic Guard
  • Argembarger - Doppelganger Vengeful Guard
  • KaminaSquirtle - Human Observant Guard
  • Criptfeind - Human Medium
  • Leafsnail - Alien Survivor
  • Dariush - Alien Agent Operative

Mish replaced Solifuge
Argembarger replaced Eduren
Dariush replaced Mish (sheesh)

Here are the current rules:

Here is the (current) list of possible roles:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Definitions:
    Doppelganger: These foul creatures kill and eat humans, taking on all of their memories and abilities. Once they have a form, most doppelgagners cannot change again. They are a flawed species, and possess and uncontrollable bloodlust forcing them to kill and eat humans each night. Their goal is to destroy all of the humans in the town and make their way out into the larger world.
    Night Kill: Any kill that happens during the Night Phase. The Doppelgangers and Cultists each get 1 Night Kill as a group, in addition to any allowed by Roles.
    Morningkill: A morning kill happens between the day and night phase, and cannot be prevented by abilities that prevent night kills. (Such as the Guardian)
    Abduction: When a player abducts another player, two things happen. First, the abducted player is role-blocked for the night. Second, that player is removed from play for that night (and possibly the game). While removed, they cannot be the target of any other night action and cannot vote or be lynched during the day. Exceptions: The Paranoid War Vet and Sentry Gun are not role-blocked by an abduction, and will kill the player attempting the abduction. Abducted players are not role-flipped until their abductor leaves the game.



I've written a perl script to pick roles and whatnot randomly. It has some rules that it follows, but it should make for a nice amount of randomness to the set-up. Note that while I'll generally just go with whatever it spits out, I may make modifications to the set-up in order to make a more interesting game or to test out a specific feature. Also note that I will intentionally mess or not mess with stuff just to screw up anyone depending on the Gambler's Fallacy.

Not all roles are guaranteed. In fact, it's quite possible to have a game with nothing but normal doppelgangers and humans.


General Rules:

  Feel free to ask for clarification on any rule.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.
