I am suggesting that bodyguards be selected among failed candidates. If mafia aren't sure if they can win the position, they won't want to risk being bodyguard. Also, if mafia really want to have the mayor role, they must be certain that they could win. Therefore some of their fellow members must stand up and support their candidates. This is another risk mafia needs to take if we are using this plan. | ||

Night 0 ![[image loading]](http://www.meer.org/ebook/albatross-laboratory-2a.jpg) “Eureka!” Node exclaimed. “Igor! Look at this!” “My name is LSB...” “Whatever” Node replied, “Igor! I created a monster!” “It’s just a vial of black liquid. Sure doesn't seem that monstrous...” “Its not any ordinary liquid! Come, take a sip!” “That seems like a startlingly bad idea.” LSB cautiously replied. “Do you want to be paid or not?” Grudgingly, LSB took what barely qualified as a sip. Almost as soon as the dribble of fluid passed his lips, he collapsed onto the floor, limbs twitching. Minutes later he awoke to a glint of steel inches from his face. “What... hey... what are you doing with that knife???” LSB screamed. “Don’t worry, I’m just going to prick you to... uhh... test your blood.” Node coolly replied. And out the blood flew. Black as night, black as blindfolds, black as... blood. The experiment was a success. Later, while cleaning up his latest dispensable assistant, Node heard the thumping of loud music from outside his laboratory. “...the hell? That sounds like... Spoon?” I’m writing this to you in reverse Suddenly a man strolled into the room carrying a stereo. “Imbecile! What are you doing in here?!” Node cowered against his precious machines and experiments. Someone better call a hearse “We have need of your research. We will be taking it.” Node started screaming. “Oh, hush.” And the man turned up the stereo. Now the light bulb’s gone on The man grabbed the vial from the hands of the scientist and uncorked it. I’m not standing here He wrapped his palm around Node’s throat, letting only gurgling, gasping sounds of struggle escape. The man tipped the vial, and a single drop of the viscous fluid fell into its creator’s mouth. And there’s nothing there As the scientist’s struggle decreased, the intruder pulled a small, serrated switchblade from his pocket. He pressed it against Node’s throat and sawed. I've seen it in your eyes The results were consistent. The man stepped back, and studied the results of his work. He grinned. “Perfect.” I can see you blankly stare The police arrived the next morning. Amidst the caution tape and penlights, were the two scientists. LSB and Node were bound with duct tape, throats slit. The strangest expression on their faces. A mad, wide grin. The blood, coursing from their necks to the floor, ran jet black... Node is dead. LSB is dead. ??? the Assassin is missing. There are clues in this post, however they do not point at any current mafia. You are encouraged to discuss what possible clues are in the post. The answers will be posted with the daypost. Day 1 will start in 24 hours. Please take this time to confirm you are playing by posting in thread. You may spend this time asking questions, talking with scumbuddies, recent proleauge results... anything but voting. The voting thread will be created when Day 1 begins. You are welcome to begin any mayoral campaign at this point. As a reminder, once the day start you may not change your profile. I recommend taking the time you have for Night 0 to check your profile and make sure there's enough there to make decent clues. | ||

My First wall of text If your not willing to read this, mafia probably isn't the game for you When you dive into the game of mafia, it might seem pretty intimidating. Wall of Text, pages created blistering fast, people with battlecruisers and archon icons posting. Don’t fear! It’s not as scary as it seems. The Basics IRL (In real life) mafia is a different game than Forum Mafia. Although they are based on the same skill set, in forum mafia you are behind a computer screen. Behind the computer screen you can’t see someone’s response. Attempting to pressure someone into making a mistake? They can just type up their posts in MS Word and make sure that they are perfect. But how do you tell if someone is mafia? Analysis This is the most important part of the game. This is how you catch scum. It is incredibly difficult. However, with enough practice and a bit of work, you can do it too! The basic premise is that there are certain ways that someone plays as mafia. Just like the person with the stupid grin after the night happened, there are people who just scream that they are mafia. What is not mafia Bad logic- Unless the bad logic is intentional. Not everyone is as smart as someone who reads LSB’s Newbie guide. Bad posting- Just because someone can’t spell, doesn’t mean the’re mafia What is mafia Bandwagoning- This is a town trait too Trying not to draw attention As you can see. The list is quiet small. Everyone plays their scum game differently. In order to determine if someone is mafia, you’re going to have to go through post history. Tip: if you’re trying to prove someone is mafia, but their posts say otherwise. They’re probably town. I know it’s hard, but sometimes you just have to give up you’re case. Town Guides: Ver's Mafia XXX analysis Qatol's Mini Mafia 2 analysis Logic Logic is incredibly important. One of the biggest parts, yet the most underrated part, is well thought out plan. For example, this game Note, plans work best in the theme game with lots of roles and lots of information about a setup. And every plan has its flaws. In addition, in games with lots of roles. Logic can be used to pick out which role must be lying.For example, this game Lets say we have three people all DTs (Detective, see appendix). And only one is mafia Player A says: B is mafia Player B says: A is mafia Player C says: B is town Who is the mafia? + Show Spoiler + Player A is the mafia. Playing as Mafia The first step is to PM LSB saying. Hey, I’m mafia. Actually. The main thing is pretend to be town. Read the town guides and play as a town. Just try not to team kill that much. Mafia Guides: Ace's Mafia Manifesto Qatol's Mafia VII experience DO NOT DO THIS: The Big No-No Lynch all Liars Don't lie, because if you do lie, you'll get lynched due to a metagame policy called Lynch all Liars. The policy is put in place to try to encourage townies not to lie. If we automatically lynch everyone who lies, the hope is that the townies would no longer lie so that the only liars are mafia + Show Spoiler + Note: Policy Lynches suck, and aren't that helpful. But still some people may try to lynch you because of them. Not dealing with the pressure in the first place is the best way to go + Show Spoiler + Side Note: If they don't catch you lieing, they can't do Lynch all Liars hint hint Flaming People Remember, you're going to be playing mafia for more than one game. Don't insult people and start making enemies. Even if you're arguing with someone, try to be friendly. Maybe chat about something else at the same time. They might be a mafia this game. But next game they might be your teammate. Going Inactive Not posting/Not voting destroys the game, hands mafia the victory, and gets you banned. Just don't do it Ruining the Game Don’t give up, (unless your mafia). Don’t give up your teammates if your mafia. Other people are actively trying to hunt out the mafia. And it’s just as bad as ruining the OSL finals. btw, Flash wins. Doing dumb scum tells People have this weird little theory that if you say “that sucks” that means you’re mafia. These include
+ Show Spoiler + Note: Across the board simple scumtells don't work. But it's better to not deal with the pressure than to have to deal with a stupid lynch Appendix: Terminology + Show Spoiler +
If you have any questions. Feel free to post and/or PM me If you have any suggestions for improvements to this guide, please post! | ||

This includes Vigs, SK, and mafia. As a reminder, it is AGAINST the rules to discuss when you got the role pm, who sent you the role pm, or the contents of the role PM Role PMs should be sent out, please PM me or Node if you did not receive one | ||

The stereo is the first thing that really sticks out at me. Also, the fact that it's playing "Spoon" an indi rock group, is important I think. Off the top of my head, I remember that Node says that he likes indi music in his profile, so he's my first suspect. A quick glance at the artists that he listens to on Last FM confirms that he has indeed been listening to Spoon. Hmm. Suspicious. Anyone else have thoughts on this? | ||

And out the blood flew. Black as night, black as blindfolds, black as... blood. I thought the bolding of the text is suspicious, so I did some googling of "black black black." http://www.blackblackandblack.com/ Are they basing the game on this site? Just a small glimpse of the site. Practice Areas - Overview At the law offices of Black, Black, and Black, our lawyers our extensively trained and focused on four practices areas of law including personal injury, criminal, family, and medical malpractice. Medical malpractice seemed to be the theme of this game. Any opinion? | ||

Err. That's an example of what we are suppose to do, I believe. I do NOT believe that the clue would be pointing to Node however, because he's dead. Not the killer. | ||
