Mini Mafia X
+ Show Spoiler [Important Posts] +
Introduction:
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. If the mafia at any time outnumber or equal the townspeople, they win. The town's goal is to lynch all the members of the mafia.
The game is typically very active, so the thread will get big quickly. However, it is essential to read the thread to play the game. If you do not have the time or patience to read the whole thread, do not play. I will not compensate for ignorance.
Rules:
Cheating:
Cheating includes (but is not limited to):
1. Posting after death. You may have one polite goodbye post, but it may not contain any potentially game-changing information.
2. Ruining the game by doing something like hand out your mafia's member list to the town.
3. Logging on to someone else's account to get their role or looking over someone's shoulder to get their role.
4. Comparing role PM times to determine roles.
5. Posting screenshots of your inbox.
6. Posting any PM you receive from a host.
7. Getting yourself modkilled to help your team. Your non-majority-decided death may not be used as a bargaining chip.
8. Signing up more than once using smurf accounts.
9. Betting items outside of the game in exchange for in-game benefits.
10. Sharing accounts with other players. Only you may post on your account.
Cheating is not tolerated here. The punishment will be severe.
Posting:
Mod Font:
This is mod font. It is reserved for moderators. Please do not use it.
Question Font:
This is question font. Use it to ask the moderators questions about the rules. Please do us a favor and read the rules before you ask anything.
Activity:
You must post in this thread once per day/night cycle and vote every day while you are alive. If you fail to do so, you will be modkilled.
Smurfs:
No Smurfs.
Spam:
Spam is not tolerated, nor is any off-topic material. Do not discuss Proleague here. Do not talk about Starcraft II here. Play Mafia here.
Editing:
Editing is not allowed for any reason. Editing will result in a warning. After that, you will be modkilled. This is the one part of the site where it is okay to be double posting, even triple-posting. While I ask for everybody to post as concisely as possible, post again if you have to edit anything.
Inappropriate posts:
If you want to post something insulting or inappropriate and know the TL mods would have a problem with it elsewhere, don't post it here. If you do, a host will warn you or modkill you and request that you be banned from future games. The hosts have the final say on what is inappropriate. If you do not like how someone is talking to you, please PM a host, Flamewheel, or Mig before involving the TL staff. If you are unsatisfied with how the situation is resolved, then you can appeal to the TL staff normally.
Reporting posts:
The report button is a nice feature for regular TL, but not for this forum. We prefer to deal with things in house if possible to avoid confusion among the TL staff. If you have a problem with how someone is posting, talk to the host, co-host, Flamewheel, or Mig before using your report button. Please do not use your report button for anything other than inappropriate posts which you feel are not being dealt with adequately.
Ban discussions:
Please wait until this game is over to talk about modkills and bans resulting from this game.
Play to win.
This means you play your best to help your team win while you are alive and in the game. However, this does not mean that you should try to win by being a jerk to the other players so they all want to quit playing.
This also means that you cannot leave the game without a good reason without a ban. These situations will be dealt with on a case by case basis. PM your host if you need to leave the game.
You have been warned.
Voting rules:
1. Voting is done in this thread. Do not PM me your vote.
2. Please vote in the following format: ##Vote Qatol. Votes not done in the correct fashion may not be counted. I will update vote counts whenever I get the chance.
3. No conditional voting.
4. You may not vote for yourself. You may not vote for anyone dead or outside the game.
5. This game follows Extended Majority Lynch Rules. Majority = #of players remaining in the game/2) (rounded down) + 1. Unlike in traditional majority lynch, the lynch is NOT decided the moment majority is reached. Instead, only the final vote count matters. If there is no majority at the deadline, the day ends with a no lynch. Non-voters will be modkilled for failure to vote.
6. Voting is mandatory. You may however vote for a no-lynch
Signups:
This game is open to anyone willing to be active. Signups will remain open until all 9 spots have been filled.
Game-specific rules:
Modkills:
This game follows the TL Mafia Ban List. If you are modkilled, your punishment will go beyond being eliminated from this game. Please refer to it for questions about your punishment. If you want to use this game to sit out your ban, please PM Flamewheel or post in the Ban List.
Replacements
This game will use replacements If I can get them. If a player is modkilled during the designated time, then they will be replaced by a player on the replacement list. Players are encouraged to find their own replacements! Don't create more work for the hosts. Do not post in the thread requesting a replacement. Doing this will result in a modkill. PM me, and we will try to work out a replacement.
Clues:
There are no clues.
PMs
PMs are not allowed in this game.
Time Cycle:
This game will follow a 24 hour night/48 hour day cycle. In case I am not able to post around deadline, any votes after the 48 hour mark will not count and the game will be put on halt until the night post is up. Currently the deadline is 02:00 GMT (+00:00).
Credits:
Thanks to anyone who has ever hosted a game. This list grows ever longer. Special thanks to Palmar since I stole lots of his Couples Therapy OP.
If you have not read all the rules, go back and do so. I will not compensate for ignorance!

Setup
This is an open 2 of 4 setup. Seven roles are predetermined, and 2 of 4 possible roles are chosen at random to fill the last two setup slots. The seven predetermined roles are 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, and 5 Vanilla Townies. The last 2 roles are chosen out of the following 4 options(2 of 4): Sane Cop, Doctor, Jailkeeper, or a sixth Vanilla Townie. There is no chance of duplication in these last two roles.
Therefore, the setup will be randomly chosen among the following:
- 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 5 Vanilla Townies, Sane Cop, Doctor.
- 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 5 Vanilla Townies, Sane Cop, Jailkeeper.
- 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 5 Vanilla Townies, Doctor, Jailkeeper.
- 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 6 Vanilla Townies, Sane Cop.
- 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 6 Vanilla Townies, Jailkeeper.
- 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 6 Vanilla Townies, Doctor.
A sample PM for all roles is provided below.
I will be rolling the dice to assign both teams and roles.
If people would prefer a parity cop again instead of a sane cop I'm happy to accommodate that. Otherwise I'd rather give this set-up a few more chances here on TL. Keep in mind that the Role Cop is being replaced with a Roleblocker.
Questions:
+ Show Spoiler +
Q: Does the doctor/jailor or the victim get notified if he saves someone?
A: No one gets notifed
Q: Do people get notified if they are roleblocked?
A: No one gets notified, If the cop gets roleblocked his investigations will return no results.
Q: Can a Jailor roleblock a mafia hit?
A: Yes, the Mafia Goon is designated as the killer, if that guy gets jailed, he won't be able to perform the kill. If the Goon is dead, the Roleblocker will perform the kills.
Q: Can the Doctor/Jailor protect themselves?
A: Nope, sorry!
Q: What if the Jailkeeper and Roleblocker target each other?
A: Roleblocker will act first in this situation, and will prevent the Jailkeeper from using his action.
Q: If the Roleblocker is jailed, will the Roleblocker still be able to use his ability?
A: No, if the Roleblocker is jailed, he will not perform a night action
[i]Q: If a player is targeted by both the Jailkeeper and Sane Cop, will the Cop get a result back?
A: No, any actions performed on a player who has been jailed will not be completed.
Sample PMs:
+ Show Spoiler +Townie
You are a Townie! You have no special role, only your voice and your vote. Make them count!
Sane Cop
You are the Sane Cop! You have the ability to make night investigations. Once per night phase, you may perform a check on a player to find out their alignment.
Doctor
You are the Doctor! Every night you may select a player to protect from a night hit. You may not protect yourself. If you save a player from a hit, neither of you will be notified.
Jailkeeper
You are the Jailkeeper! Every night you may select a target, and that player will be both protected and roleblocked. Any actions they try to perform will be unsuccessful. Likewise, any actions performed on them will also be unsuccessful. Neither player will be informed if any actions were blocked.

You are the Mafia Goon! You are the man with the gun, and perform kills for your team. If you are killed, your teammate will retrieve your gun and perform the kills instead.
Your partner in crime is name. You may PM him/her as much as you like.
[b]Mafia Roleblocker[b]
You are the Mafia Roleblocker! Every night you may choose a target to be role blocked. If the person chosen to be role blocked has a night action, he or she may not use it for the night. You may roleblock the same person each night.

I'd like to play in this, but I don't know if I have time...
EDIT: Also, i'm kind of interested to see how the roleblocker works out instead of the role cop, although I will continue with my insistence that cops without framers/millers are too strong. (It makes no difference if its a parity or a regular cop, it just sucks for scum because there is no way to argue your way out of a successful cop check, other than to claim that the cop is lying scum)
EDIT2: The FAQ talks about a parity cop, yet the setup says "sane cop". I assume its a regular cop, and not a parity cop, yes?
EDIT3: No smurfs makes me sad.

Yes, it's a regular Cop. Updated.

You may be right that a miller is important. However I think with a roleblocker mafia should be able to handle the cop. Though a situation where the Cop finds the roleblocker first and lynches him presents a problem.

/in
Because I love small setups like this.

Can I join this game even though I'm signed up for Zona's TL Mafia 46?
If so then /in

Probably irrelevant, but I may as well ask, does the town cop return just alignment or role and alignment?

@GM. Cop result only returns alignment
@prplhz. I would prefer if players were not playing in any other games at the same time. However, if we cannot get enough people in a timely fashion then I will allow players from Zona's game.

Do you have an ETA on the start time? I should be able to play until about the beginning of December when finals start.

Curses, my diabolical scheme has been foiled!
Onto more direct solutions, I will rally the legions and go to war against Hot_Bid.
We march at dawn.
This is what you have wrought kita, all this bloodshed and turmoil could have been avoided, had you not unmasked me, but alas, you could not contain yourself. Now the forums will run red with bans!

I personally want him to join because I love reading the plan posts he makes as well as the flavor of the analysis.

/in assuming this doesn't start until after Monday.
Glad there's a mini, I can't play big so I was wasting away without my fix
