Normal Mini Mafia I + 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 or sharing 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:

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. I have zero tolerance for flaming.
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.
Out of thread communication: It is common for mafia (and town circles if PMs are allowed) to use a medium outside of TL such as QuickTopics or IRC to communicate during the game. Please be mindful that other players may be more tech savvy than you and they may attempt impersonate members of your team or attempt to infiltrate your chat. You use these media at your own risk.
Voting rules: 1. Voting is done in this thread. Please keep votes there, and only vote there. Do not PM me your vote. 2. Please vote in the following format: ##Vote: GMarshal. Votes not done in the correct fashion will not be counted. I will update vote counts whenever I get the chance. 3. No conditional voting. 4. You may vote for yourself. You may not vote for anyone dead or outside the game. 5. This game uses Extended Majority Lynch. That is, at the deadline the player with a majority of votes is lynched (majority = 1/2 the remaining players, rounded down + 1), if no one has a majority then no lynch will take place. 6. Voting is mandatory. You may NOT abstain. You MAY vote for a no lynch by posting ##Vote: No Lynch
Signups: This game is open to anyone. Signups will remain open until all 12 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 uses replacements. Replacements will be made in the game until Night 3. If a player is modkilled during the designated time, then they will be replaced by a player on the replacement list.
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 03:00 GMT (+00:00), but that is subject to change. Actions/votes will be accepted up to and including the posted time, but not after.
Credits: Thanks to anyone who has ever hosted a game. This list grows ever longer. Thanks to everyone who helped balance this game.
If you have not read all the rules, go back and do so. I will not compensate for ignorance!

Roles
In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war
It is the 41st Millennium. For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor of Mankind has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the master of mankind by the will of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the vast Imperium of Man for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day so that he may never truly die.Yet even in his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the daemon-infested miasma of the Warp, the only route between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor's will. Vast armies give battle in His name on uncounted worlds. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Imperial Guard and countless planetary defence forces, the ever-vigilant Inquisition and the tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat to humanity from aliens, heretics, mutants -- and far, far worse. To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be relearned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.
This is a semi-open setup, that is, you will know what roles can be present, but not the exact role counts.
Imperial Forces Imperial (Town) win condition: The forces of the Imperium win when all threats to the integrity of the regiment are dead, that is when no cultists or third parties with conflicting win conditions remain.
Imperial Powers- All players of the imperium may vote every day for who they wish to kill. At the end of the day, the player with a majority of votes is executed (majority equals 1/2 the number of players, rounded down, plus one). If there is no majority, no player is lynched.
Imperial Guardsman (Vanilla Townie) You are one among untold billions, your only hope is to serve the emperor and in so doing avoid eternal damnation. Your weapons and armor are powerless against the powers of darkness. Your objective is simple, kill the cult before they wipe out the the rest of your regiment. To do this you have to power to vote for who is to be executed every day.
Imperial Priest (Medic) Another mortal in the service of the emperor, you too seek to wipe out the taint of evil on this planet. With the power of prayer to the emperor and magical charms you can protect others from the taint of chaos. Every night you may choose to ward any player in the game, if he is hit you reduce the incoming KP by one, if the kp is reduced to 0 then the player does not die. Neither you nor the player you ward will be informed if any kp are deflected.
Imperial Psyker (Detective) You are blessed and cursed individual, you have the power to reach into the void and see the true intent of others, but this puts your soul and your very life at risk. Every night you may choose to check a player, and find out if they are Tainted or Not Tainted. You are guaranteed to be sane.
Imperial Stormtrooper (Veteran) You are an expert at war, tempered in the very forges of hell against the darkest scions of chaos and the most powerful enemies of the empire. Thanks to your octagramic wards, the first kp to be aimed at you during the game is harmlessly dispelled. You will be notified if this happens.
Imperial Commissar (Vigilante) You are an orphan, raised by the imperium to better serve against the enemies of the emperor. Your training is as a leader of men, and in this dark time it is your duty to do so. You posses a single shot of blessed ammunition, entrusted to you by the Adepta Sororitas, you may use it during any night, and it counts as a single KP. This shot may not be refunded for any reason. (If you are roleblocked a night you choose to fire you do not lose your bullet)
Additional Rules: The taint of chaos- Any imperial player may be tainted by chaos, irregardless of role, anyone tainted by chaos returns Tainted to Psykers. (Basically a miller mechanic, that applies regardless of role)
Forces of Chaos
Chaos Wincondition (Mafia)- The forces of chaos win when they outnumber the forces of the imperium, or nothing can stop that from happening.
Chaos Traits -All members of the forces of chaos may communicate with each other and choose who to kill every night. They also communally have one kp. They also have the Delay power communally. That is, any night, they may choose to withhold their kill, and instead have 2 kp the following night. For example, they may choose to not kill anyone night 1, and instead have two kp night 2, they must inform the host if they choose to use this power, and it cannot be used consecutively (e.g if you use it night 1, you may not use it night 2). All mafia players may vote as normal imperial citizens.
Chaos Cultist (Mafia Goon)- You have pledged your soul to the dark gods, and now seek to bring about the downfall and slaughter of this regiment for the glory of the Ruinous Powers. You are too lowly of a worm to have received any dark blessings, so you hide among the members of the regiment, plotting their downfall. You may communicate with other members of your cell, and every night you may choose who your cult wishes to sacrifice to the dark gods.
Chaos Fatespinner (Mafia Rolecop)- Blessed (or cursed) by the dark god Tzeentch, you have the all seeing eye, which can peer into the minds of your enemies, divining their powers. Every night you may check a player, and find out what their role is.
Chaos Plaguebearer (Mafia Roleblocker) - You have the blessing (or curse) of Nurgle! Every night you may choose to inflict a player with a gutwrenching infection, the sheer agony and suffering will prevent them from performing any night actions. This doesn't affect passive abilities, and the victim will be informed that they spent the night ailed by the plague.
Chaos Hedonist (Mafia Framer)- A servant of Slaanesh, every night you may choose to visit a player, if they are not servants of the ruinous powers, you will fill their dreams with lust and dark desire, making them seem Tainted to Psykers. If they are fellow worshippers of darkness, you will hide their taint behind pleasure, confounding Psykers and causing them to appear Not Tainted
Also, each role has custom fluff, to deter any silly ideas like name claiming, the mafia will receive fake claims at the start of the game, and may, at any point request up to three more safe-claims from me and I will provide them, safe claims can be for any role. (A note to the scumteam, try to order safeclaims with some time for me to write them, especially considering as I'm not on 24/7. "I need a claim in 3 minutes" is likely not going to get you anything useful)
