C9++ Mini Mafia
+ 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 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.
Rules specific to this game are also shown in blue text in this thread.
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.
Let this be your warning that I will modkill for inactivity that falls under this rule. If you are obviously purposely trying to skirt around this requirement you will be modkilled as well. If in doubt, PM me if you will have to be inactive for some time period that exceeds 24 hours. My goal is for no one to be modkilled this game. To prove that you have read and understand this, please add "I will not be modkilled" to your /in post. Any /in post that does not contain this phrase will not be counted.
Smurfs:

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:
I don't care if you spam. If you think it will help you win, by all means go ahead. (this is within reasonable limit; if you, for example, create a script that floods the thread, then ofc your ass will be grass and I'll have the weedwhacker)
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. In the event of a tie the person with the most votes first is lynched.
6. Voting is mandatory. You may NOT abstain.
7. Players may vote for a no-lynch by posting ##vote no-lynch.
8. This game runs on a majority voting system. In other words, the person with the majority of votes will be lynched at the end of every day. In the case of no majority, a no-lynch will occur.
Signups:
This game is open to anyone (with preference for committed and active players). Signups will remain open until (all 13 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 does not use replacements.
I will make exceptions only on the basis of extraordinary circumstances. In such circumstances, it is the player's responsibility to find his or her own 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 22:00 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, including Foolishness, GMarshal, and Ace.
If you have not read all the rules, go back and do so. I will not compensate for ignorance.

Setup Information
Overview:
The setup is a semi-open setup for 13 players; that is, all the possible roles are given but the number of each is not known. Not all of the roles will necessarily be present. Some of the roles may have limits on the number of times they may be used. This will be specified in the role PM. The game is inherently balanced for both sides depending on the types and numbers of roles that appear. The mafia win when they outnumber the town or they reach a scenario when this becomes inevitable. Town wins by eliminating all mafia members. Mafia kill power is always 1.
Town Roles
Vanilla Town
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] +You are a simpleton villager. Your job is to rid the town of all mafia. You're also seriously badass.
Miller
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] +You are a miller. For whatever odd reason, you're the town scapegoat and so appear guilty to all investigative checks. You have one vote and win with town, by killing all the mafia.
Mason
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] + You are a member of this society: along with (playername here). You are both members of the town. You may communicate with each other privately by any means you wish; a QT has been provided for you at (linkhere). You win with town when all mafia members have been put under the ground.
Cop
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] +You're a stud. As such, you may check one person (once/every night) and will receive back either guilty or innocent.. You may vote once per day and win when town has eliminated all the criminal mafia.
Doctor
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] +You're Gregory House. As a medical genius, you have the power to save lives. You may choose one person to protect (one night/every night) and you will protect them from 1 KP. If your protection stops a hit, both you and your target will be informed. You may vote once per day and your goal is to rid the town of the scum Italian mafia who stole your motorcycle.
Roleblocker
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] +You're the hottest girl in town. Everyone wants some of you, and they'll drop everything to get it. Thus, (once at/every) night you will be able to tie up someone and have your way with them, preventing them from doing anything or going anywhere until the crack of dawn. Though you're naughty, you win when all the bad guys in red have been killed.
Vigilante
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] +You are the most conservative member of town, and as such you really enjoy exercising your 2nd Amendment rights to shoot criminals in the face. You have a gun with X bullets and you may shoot if you so wish at night. You are only refunded your bullet if you are roleblocked when you try to shoot. You win when all the mafia have ceased to breathe.
Mafia Roles
Goon
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] +You are just a hitman for the mafia and your name is distinctly Italian. Enough talk, just go out there and start killing things. Your family can kill one person per night by choosing one of you to carry out the deed. You win when your family outnumbers the town. You may talk to each other at any time in private by any means you wish; for your convenience, a QT has been provided at (link)
Roleblocker
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] +You break bones for a living. Either that or you just smooth talk people. Whatever you feel like, really. As such, once per night you may choose one person to roleblock. That person will be informed that he or she was roleblocked. You may also carry out kills for the mafia. You may communicate privately with your friend(s) (name(s) here) in any manner you wish; a QT has been provided at (link here) for your convenience.
Godfather
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] + Over the years, you've gone by a number of different names. Al Capone, Dick Cheney, Julius Caesar, Elmo, and Martha Stewart all come to mind. Now, however, you want to just retire. In order to do so, though, you must first kill everyone who is not part of your family, because you are highly allergic to non-related people. They make you sick. At your disposal is your uncanny ability to appear as anything you wish. As such you can choose to appear "innocent" to all investigations, if you so wish. By night one you must decide whether you want to mask yourself to investigations. You may also communicate privately with your family member(s) name(s) here in any manner you wish. A QT has been provided at (link here) for your convenience.
Framer
+ Show Spoiler [possible role PM] +blahblahblah standard scum fluff here you win when you outnumber town your teammates are here and you have a QT here, you may target one person per night, causing them to display the opposite alignment to any cops who choose to investigate them for that night only. You may not target yourself.
Notes
If two roleblockers target each other, neither is informed of anything (it's as if no actions were made)
Masons who are roleblocked will not be prevented from communicating with their partner(s).
Masons are confirmed town to each other.
One person on the mafia team may carry out the kill each night. The mafia can choose not to kill. The mafia can kill each other. If the mafia member chosen to kill on a particular night is roleblocked, no kill will occur.
Millers are self-aware.
If there are any questions about the setup, they may either be PMed to me or posted in the thread in bold green text
There will be post-game analysis and potentially other types of recognition from me (and Toad if she's not lazy). Stick around after the game is over if you want to do the post-game discussionings.

A big part of this game is keeping an eye on the claims. Only certain setups are going to be possible, which limits what scum are able to successfully fake-claim.
I like this setup, good one Bugs.

Is this some kind of altered version with no SK??!!!?!??!??!?!?!?!
For shame.
|
|
|
Last time I played C9 we lynched the SK d1. There was much rejoicing.
|
Btw I voted to have the deadline earlier. Just by a few hours. 20:00 GMT (+00:00) would be good =)
(did the time show up in your own time correct?)
|
yeah, thanks for clarifying (it did)
If you would like a different deadline time, please specify by posting.
I can't accomodate everyone for obvious reasons, but I'm willing to change the deadline based on popular demand.

For shame.
For now I'm not including the SK because it raised a lot of balance concerns among those who helped.
Believe me, I'd love to include an SK, but for the first time hosting this setup it will not be included. During this run I'll be looking to see if I can fit in an SK, since balancing it with respect to the TL meta and skillset will be more difficult than how mafiascum functions. My number one concern is balance, and if I'm not confident in the balance of a certain setup I will simply not allow it.
