Intro:
Mafia is an educated guessing game of epic proportions. The objective of the game is to lynch or kill all mafia members before they outnumber the rest of the town. It's much like a game of poker because mafia members are also part of the town during the day and may manipulate the vote to their liking.

This mafia game works slightly different than the normal one (read: Mafia), so I'll explain it a bit more. During the night mafia will collectively decide on and send in their hits to me, who they want dead (it's a good idea to discuss them during day so you know ahead of time). Any player with a special role that can act during the night must PM me their actions each and every night.

If the mafia at any time outnumber the townspeople, they win the game. The goal for the townspeople is to lynch all the members of the mafia by whatever analysis, teamwork, or guile they have. The goal of the mafia, of course, is to kill the townspeople with murderous precision.

The game is typically very active and there are usually numerous walls of text to wade through. If you are not a person who likes reading then I highly suggest you don't play the game because it is essential to being informed within the game. I will not compensate for ignorance.

Rules: (subject to change)

Posting Etiquette:
In the past, many players have complained or quit because of the excessive badmouthing and pointless flaming. If you are posting aggressively and know you couldn't get away with it anywhere else on this site, it ~~probably~~ definitely isn't okay here. Besides, contrary to what you may think, yelling at someone is a great way to convince people to disagree with your arguments. Please do not post inappropriately, or it will earn you a warning based on mod discretion. If you choose to ignore the warning, you will be modkilled and banned from future games. Examples of inappropriate posts include excessive cursing and vulgarity, among other things.

Cheating:
Cheating includes (but is not limited to) the following and will get you banned from future games:
1. Posting after death. One polite goodbye post is acceptable but please do not post anything which could POSSIBLY affect the game.
2. Betraying your role and ruining the game for everyone by doing something like hand out your mafia's member list to the town.
3. Logging on to someone else's account / checking their PMs / looking over someone's shoulder to get their role.
4. Comparing role PM times to determine roles.
5. Posting screenshots of your inbox. This is not a photoshop competition.
6. Posting any PM you receive from a host.
7. Editing posts. Editing posts is not allowed for any reason. The mods can see your edits, and if you are caught, you will look suspicious.

Voting rules:
1. You must post your vote in the Vote Thread (which will be in a separate thread in the mafia forum). Do not PM or IM it to me.
2. You must clearly declare and bold your vote in this format ie: "I vote to lynch Chuiu" or "I vote Qatol for Mayor", which will make it easier on everybody’s eyes to read. I will not accept votes that are not done in the correct fashion.
3. You cannot autochange your vote to the losing or winning bandwagon.
4. You cannot vote for yourself or anyone dead or outside the game.
5. In the event of a tie the person with the most votes first wins (or loses

) over the other person.
6. Voting is mandatory. You may NOT abstain.

Modkills:
Inactivity has been a problem in every mafia game so far. Inactivity is most easily defined as failing to vote. If you do miss a vote, you will be modkilled. Special consideration will be exercised if a player in danger of being modkilled by this manner has been an active contributor in the thread. If something comes up and you know you will miss the vote, PM me in advance about it to let me know and you will be spared. Remember again: abstaining votes are NOT allowed.

Anyone who is modkilled may not play in one of my games until they have proven themselves to be active players in another game. ~~I am hoping I never have to modkill anyone.~~ I enjoy modkills, please, let me use lightning. Please remain active so I do not have to. However, do not just simply spam one-liners or worthless posts. Strategic modkills are NOT allowed, either.

You have been warned.
+ Show Spoiler +

Something burning-hot and life-ending this way comes.

Signups:
This game is open to all with slight preference for new players. Signups will remain open until all spots have been filled (probably around 25 players).

Clues:
There will be no clues at all. As Comrade Caller would say: NYET.

Time Cycle:
This game will follow a strict 24 hour night/48 hour day cycle. In case I am not be there, any votes or actions after the end-of-the-cycle mark will not count and the game will be put on halt until I get the next post up.

Because of the way my tennis matches work, for now I am setting the time for cycle shifts at 9:00 EST. Sorry if this inconveniences anybody, though I'd rather be early than late.

The Election:
I would ask that potential candidates do NOT begin their campaigns before the game starts. I believe doing so interferes with the atmosphere of the game and provides a level of sincerity that should not be part of the game. With this in mind, I would ask the voters not to consider running before the game begins as a perk to a player's candidacy.

Credits:
Chuiu, Ace, Tracil, Caller, BloodyC0bbler, Qatol, Ver, LTT, Plexa, Pyrrhuloxia, Incognito and dreamflower for taking the time to run mafia games for us. Thanks guys!

Furthermore, props to the balance crew (you know who you are) for helping us to make this setup reasonably balanced.

Roles

This is a semi-open setup. Roles will be disclosed, but role counts will remain hidden. Read this section carefully, as it may be subject to change.

Townie
You may just be a normal player but you are the backbone of the town. Your goal, with the special roles of the town, is to help bring the Mafia to justice. You get no special powers but the ability to vote during day. Blue Roles may look pretty but the real power lies with you!

Detective
You have the ability to make night investigations. Once per night phase, you may perform a role check on a player.

Since there are no clues, you may use a role check every night.

Note: Role checks will work slightly differently in this game. With the addition of the bus driver, role checks will not be returned until the day post.

Medic
You have the ability to prevent one hit on a player of your choice during the night. Each paramedic can only stop one hit and as such if the number of mafia is greater than the number of paramedics on a player then that player will die. You will know if you saved the person. The person will know if he was saved. If you are protecting a veteran, and they are hit, your ability supersedes theirs. You cannot protect yourself. A medic can protect someone the night she/he gets killed. They won't be notified of their save though, since they are dead.

Vigilante
You may, only once during the game, kill a player of your choice during the night. If your hit overlaps with mafia then I will cancel it and they will kill the person instead. In the case of overlapping vigilantes, the hit that was sent first is the one that goes through. In both cases you will not know who caused your hit to be canceled and you will be able to use your hit anytime after that during the game. Medic protection may block your hit, and, if it does, you will have used your killing ability. A vigilante can kill someone during a night where she/he gets killed. You may not use your ability on night 1.

Mad Hatter
You may lay bombs on one player per night (maximum 2). If you are killed you will throw the switch and detonate them, killing the players (if they aren't protected by extra night lives, paramedics, or bodyguards). You may remove any number of them from players at any time during the night to get them back, but if a player is lynched with one on them while you are still alive you lose that bomb for good. Bombs are refunded if the target is killed during the night.

Veteran
You get two night lives instead of one! This means it takes at least two successful hits in one night to kill you, or one hit on each of two separate nights. A veteran will be told when they lose one of their night lives. If you get lynched, you die, regardless of whether you have an extra night life remaining.

Bus Driver
Twice per game, you get to switch the actions on two players. For example, if the Bus Driver switches A and B, where A and B are players, and A is killed and B is role checked, A will be role checked and B will be killed instead. A Bus Drivers' alignment is ambiguous. That means they can be town-aligned, mafia-aligned, neither, or both.

No matter the alignment of the Bus Driver, he or she will show up as Bus Driver to role checks. However, mafia-aligned Bus Drivers do not know who the mafia are, and win only if the mafia wins.

Mayor
You are the winner of the election. Every candidate running for election must PM me before the end of Day 1 with the name of the player that he/she would like lynched on Day 1 if he/she wins. You can't choose the Pardoner as the Day 1 lynch victim. Your votes count as three votes instead of one. You are not immune to role checks.

Pardoner
You are the secondary elected role of the game; the runner up in the election. You may pardon a person who is to be lynched two times per game. You may use this ability on the mayor's first lynch. If you use this ability during a double lynch, each pardon spares one player (so you must use both pardons to completely stop a double lynch). You may not pardon yourself. You are not immune to role checks.

Bodyguard
You are the protector of the elected roles. As long as you remain alive, the elected officials (Mayor and Pardoner) will be immune to all night hits. Bodyguards will be done a bit differently this game. After the election, two bodyguards will be randomly selected from all the remaining townies AND mafia (not including the Godfather and Bus Driver roles). In short, bodyguards will be chosen from players that do not have any other special actions/roles. Those two players chosen to become bodyguards will be publically announced to the town. Bodyguards are immune to role checks. Mafia bodyguards do not protect town-aligned officials, only mafia-elected officials.

Miller
This player is a townie in every way except that if a detective role checks this player, the detective will be told the Miller is a Mafia. The Miller is told that they are a Townie in their pre-game PM. The Miller will be revealed as a Miller upon his/her death. The miller is on the side of the Townies, and wins if they win.

Mafia
Your goal is to eliminate everyone else in the town. Your ability, as a group, is killing off whomever you decide on at night and knowing the role of each other player in your mafia. You may kill your own members. You also must choose the Godfather from amongst yourselves. If you do not choose by night 1, I will randomly choose for you.

Godfather
The Godfather has the ability to decide what role he will appear to be when a Detective role checks him. It may be any role and must be chosen Day 1 or he will default to Townie role. After your role is chosen you may not change it after that; decisions are final for the whole game. The Godfather will not be randomly selected to be one of the two bodyguards.

Double Lynch

Usable two times per game, the town majority lynches two people instead of one. This means on the next day everyone gets two votes to distribute between two different people. The double lynch is activated by voting for it in addition to a player (or players if a double lynch is currently activated). The vote must exceed half the number of players voting that day. IE: If there are 20 players voting then the town needs 11 votes to use a double lynch. Double lynches may be voted on starting Day 2. Double lynches may be used on consecutive days. Players cannot place all of their votes on one player when a double lynch is in effect. If there is a two-way tie for second place, only the person with the most votes will be lynched.
