Micro Mafia IV: Redemption
*All questions are to be directed toward me.
+ Show Spoiler [Important Posts] +
Intro:
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.
During the day mafia will collectively decide on and send in their hits to me, who they want dead (it's a good idea to discuss them during day so you know ahead of time). Any player with a special role that can act must PM me their actions each and every day.
If the mafia at any time outnumber or equal the townspeople, they win the game. The goal for the townspeople is to lynch all the members of the mafia by whatever analysis, teamwork, or guile they have. The goal of the mafia, of course, is to kill the townspeople with murderous precision.
The game is typically very active and there are usually numerous walls of text to wade through. If you are not a person who likes reading then I highly suggest you don't play the game because it is essential to being informed within the game. I will not compensate for ignorance.
Rules: (subject to change)
Posting Etiquette:
No flaming. This is friendly game. We cool?
Cheating:
Cheating includes (but is not limited to) the following and will get you banned from future games:
1. Posting after death. One polite goodbye post is acceptable but please do not post anything which could POSSIBLY affect the game.
2. Betraying your role and ruining the game for everyone by doing something like hand out your mafia's member list to the town.
3. Logging on to someone else's account / checking their PMs / looking over someone's shoulder to get their role.
4. Comparing role PM times to determine roles.
5. Posting screenshots of your inbox. This is not a photoshop competition.
6. Posting any PM you receive from a host.
7. Editing posts. Editing posts is not allowed for any reason. The mods can see your edits, and if you are caught, you will look suspicious. Editing will result in a warning. After that, you will be owned.
8. There are to be NO private messages this game for most roles. However Private messaging, including IMs / IRC, is allowed between Mafia.
Voting rules:
1. Voting is to be done in this thread.
2. Please vote in the following format, to make it easier for everyone to read: [Vote]##Korynne. While the bolding in itself is not necessarily needed, it makes it easier on everybody's eyes. Please bold. Votes not done in the correct fashion will not be counted. I will update votes whenever I get the chance.
3. You cannot autochange your vote to the losing or winning bandwagon.
4. You may not vote for yourself, anyone dead, or outside the game.
5. In the event of a tie the person with the most votes first is lynched over the other person.
6. Voting is mandatory. You may NOT abstain.
7. If you miss a vote or fail to post during one day cycle, you will be modkilled.
Modkills:
Inactivity has been a problem in every mafia game so far. Inactivity is most easily defined as failure to vote. If you do miss a vote, you will be modkilled. Special consideration will be exercised if a player in danger of being modkilled by this manner has been an active contributor in the thread. If something comes up and you know you will miss the vote, PM me in advance about it to let me know and you will be spared. Remember again: abstaining votes are NOT allowed. And once again, flaming is not tolerated. Keep it civil, or else you will receive a quick lightning bolt to the back of the head. Furthermore, you must post at least once in this thread per game cycle (48 hours, the length of a day) to avoid being modkilled. Simply voting doesn't work. This is to prevent lurkers.
Anyone who is modkilled may not play in one of my games until they have proven themselves to be active players in another game. Please remain active.However, do not just simply spam one-liners or worthless posts. Strategic modkills are NOT allowed, either. A strategic modkill is defined as anything that will better the position of your team. You cannot threaten with the words "well if you kill X and he's not mafia I'll get myself modkilled" or anything in that vein. Essentially, you may not use your non-majority-decided death as a bargaining chip. If you do happen to be modkilled, you will be put on Qatol's ban list, and cannot play in an "official" game till you have served your sentence.
Signups:
Sign Ups will be done here. Just post “/in” to sign up. Or some variation
Preference will be given to players in this order
1) Not alive in Haunted Mafia (In fact you can’t be alive in Haunted Mafia if you want to join)
2) Newcomers
3) People with a good reason to try to seek redemption. Ie Masq, Veldril and other people who got killed wayyy to fast.
Clues:
There are no clues.
Time Cycle:
This game will follow a strict 48 hour day cycle. There is no night. In case I am not around at the deadline, any votes after the 48 hour mark will not count and the game will be put on halt until the next daypost. The time deadline is 02:00 GMT (+00:00).
Credits:
Korynne cause I literally stole the entire post from her game and changed a few things. She probably stole it from someone else. So if your angry about not being mentioned here, uhh… direct the attention to her. Qatol too
Important Setup Specific Information
There is NO Night. This way the game gets done even faster. Yell if you want this changed. Feel free to give me a convoluted PM involving conditions on who is lynched and whatnot if you want. ( i.e. if Qatol gets lynched, rolecheck ver. Otherwise, rolecheck Qatol.) Or even (ie Qatol gets lynched and is doctor, rolecheck ver. If he is mafia, rolecheck Korynne. If he is townie, rolecheck LSB)
If you are on the Team Liquid Banlist. Please PM me and explain why you were banned and how you will redeem yourself, I may allow you to play. (Hence the name “Redemption”. For those who died early or want a second chance). However you will be kept on a very short leash.
Even if sign ups fill up fast. Just keep on signing in if you want to join. I will put you on the replacement list. On the event that 18 people have signed up, I’ll run a second game concurrently.
I will be running the F11 setup. One of the four setups will be chosen.
1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 1 Sane Cop, 1 Doctor, 5 Townies.
1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 7 Townies.
2 Mafia Goons, 1 Sane Cop, 6 Townies.
2 Mafia Goons, 1 Doctor, 6 Townies.
Awards will be given for smart (or lucky) play!
