*Qatol is helping me co-host this game. Any questions can be directed towards him or myself.

The coaches for this game are: Ver and Incognito. Please consult them if you want general advice on playing the game or need to check your argument (but please make sure they are not playing the game for you).

Game over: Town victory!
Role List, Actions List

Night 3
Day 4



Introduction:

Welcome to the TL Mafia forum! 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 unless cleared by the host in advance. Otherwise, only you may post on your account.
11. Breadcrumbing the specific phrasing of your role PM. Do not compare the phrasing in your role PM to prove your alignment. You can claim the abilities you have, but you can't use the specific phrasing of your role PM.
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:
On April 26 2011 13:22 mikeymoo wrote:
Smurfs must PM the host because TL doesn't allow multiple accounts otherwise. If the host is unaware of smurfs, you (and/or your smurf) can be banned for having multiple accounts.


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.



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 here, and only vote here. Do not PM me your vote.
2. Please vote in the following format: ##Vote Qatol. 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 follows Extended Majority Lynch Rules. Majority = number of total voters/2 (rounded down) + 1. Unlike in traditional majority lynch, the lynch is NOT decided the moment that 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 NOT abstain.


Signups:

This game is open to NEW PLAYERS . This means 3 or fewer games played of TL mafia. Signups will remain open until the 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 day 2 ish. 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.


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!

Possible Roles (not all will be used) :

Townie
You are just a normal player with no night actions. All you can do is vote during the day. But the town needs you to win so be active!

Detective
You can make night investigations. Once per night you may ask for the role of any player. Alignments are either Town or Mafia. You are always sane. Role checks come back with the next day post.

Medic
You have the power to save lives. Once per night you can watch a player. If your target is attacked, you will block one hit aimed at them. If you make a successful save, both you and your target will be notified of the save. You cannot save yourself.

Veteran
You've been around the block a few times and know how to escape an attack on your life. But for how long? The veteran gets one additional night life, meaning he must be hit by two attackers to kill him (much like having two medics watching over you, except you lose one life if you incur one attack). If a medic is protecting you, you will not lose a life for the hit the medic protects. If you incur a hit, I will notify you via PM the following day.

Vigilante
You may, only once during the game, kill a player of your choice during the night. If your hit overlaps with mafia or another vigilante, 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. You may not use this ability on Night 1.

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 Goon
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. Mafia killing power is always 1 until there are no mafia remaining.

Roleblocker
You are a mafia member who has the ability to prevent a player from performing a night action. Once per night, you may roleblock a player, and your target will be unable to perform night actions for that night. Your target will be informed that they have been roleblocked (even if they didn't have a night action). You do not have to use your action every night.

Godfather
The Godfather has the ability to decide what role he will appear to be when a Detective role checks him. It can be any role and must be chosen on Day 1. Otherwise, he will default to the townie role. After your role is chosen, the Godfather may not change it; decisions are final for the whole game. The Mafia as a group must choose which Mafia member becomes the Godfather before Day 1 ends. If they do not, the Godfather will be randomly selected.





Mafia win condition : You win when the # of mafia alive is equal to or greater than the # of other players alive.

Town win condition : You win when all of the mafia have been eliminated.

Please note two important and useful things to keep in mind:

1) Do not edit your posts! If you feel you must correct your post, please make a second post to clarify your statements. You may put EBWOP ("Edit by way of post," a handy acronym invented by semioldguy) at the beginning of your post to indicate that you are clearing up a point you made. If your EBWOP post is several posts after your original, please quote your original post in your EBWOP post for the sake of clarity.

2) Thanks to Nazgul, the Mafia forum has a handy tool called the filter. When you click on someone's filter (a tiny little link located in the top right corner of every post), you will see a list of their posts and only their posts. This is great for isolating posts made only by that player. Please feel free to make use of this excellent tool when playing Mafia!

Hooray! Dreamflower, I was wondering whether I could sign in for this as a hydra with Jitsu? We are both pretty busy but would love to take part. Are you happy to let us play as a hydra?

I played in the shitstorm that was XLVII, played fully in XLVIII and got modkilled day 1 (rules misunderstanding, my fault) in Mafia L and I am registered for Hammer's Mini. I would equate this to about 2 games of mafia history and I have more than enough time to be active during 2 mini games. I will /in if I am allowed.

Sorry, but I just don't feel comfortable allowing a player who is playing in another game at the same time. I appreciate your interest, but I do think it would be better if you devoted your time to playing one game at a time.

Edit: I have also noticed that you haven't sat out your one-game ban yet. As this game follows the Ban List, I'm afraid you cannot sign up for this game.

I've been stalking these Mafia threads for a while, might as well start in a noobie thread. I really look forward to participating. Started an account just to play in this game, haha.

EDIT: Grammar error.

Obviously it doesn't matter before the game starts, but please be mindful about editing in the future. It is not allowed in mafia games, even if it is just to fix grammar or spelling.
