Mafia game 13: Here we go again!
by GoldenBullet » Mon Jan 11, 2010 16:53
Hello everyone! Christman is over and clips are empty after PSfunwar. What a perfect time to begin yet another mafia game!
If you have NEVER heard of mafia game, here is the idea in a nutshell:
Innocents try to kill mafia and vice versa. The mafia game is played here on PS forums on spesific section you will receive access as you join the game.
In case you missed something or maybe the nut was too small, maybe this coconut is better:
#####################################################
RULES
BASICS:
Each participant gets their role assigned via PM. Mafia players are advised who the other mafioso are. Mafia players are permitted to interact with each other via PM or make a secret forum of their own, while innocents may only interact in public on the posted thread (expetion: Masons). Mafia players will, of course, also post on the public thread as well.
The game has 2 phases, "night" and "day". Length of these phases vary; day phase might take 3 days!
During the "night" phase of the game, the mafia will write a name of innocent in red, indicating who they want to kill (this will ofc happend on their secret forums, NOT on public one.) The mafia's victim will be selected by majority vote. If they are dumb/tactical enough not to have a majority in their votes, then no innocent will be killed on that turn. However it might happen that other roles actions will prevent mafia from doing their kill. For example: mafia will fail to kill somebody protected by the Doctor. Roles which can use their abilities may send their PMs both at night and during the day. Effects which should be shown to publicity will be included in stories/summaries posted at the beginning of every phase.
Once the Narrator has posted the results of the PMs, the "day" phase of the game begins. During the day phase, the players who are still alive discuss who they think might be a mafioso and vote for someone to kill. The mafioso are posing as innocents during the day and they also vote with the innocents. A majority of votes is required to reach a decision. If there are 15 people alive, then 8 people must vote for the same person in order to "lynch" them. When the person is lynched, the Narrator will reveal his/her role and the night phase will begin. This cycle will repeat until the game ends. Once a player is "dead", he can no longer post anything of substance to the thread. Exception is a Ghost role. We also have a topic for the dead folk, but WRITING ANYTHING ABOUT THE GAME THERE MIGHT GET THAT TOPIC REMOVED! So for the sake of public wellfare, don't do it.
The game ends when the innocents have lynched all the mafia players or the mafia have killed enough innocents that the innocents can no longer muster enough votes to lynch any mafia players.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
You should check the game as much as possible, inactivity for more then 3-4 days will be punished with a 'death from above' (= inactivity death.)
Posting pm's from the Narrator to you is strictly forbidden. Violation of this rule will lead to direct elimination.
Since this round hasn't got the whole variation of roles and mostly plain innocents, you ARE ALLOWED to tell your role anytime you wish without penalties.
See roles for more info about their abilities and restrictions.
ROLES
Boss
Side: Mafioso
Story: Every group needs a leader, which in this case, is you. You're a notorious fat cat, who has dedicated his life for crime and luxury. Everything would seem to be in your control, if there wasn't those pesky innocents ruining your world.
Description: Boss is a special role that can be appointed by the mafia on 1st night. Like Mayor, he has 1 vote more than the rest, but unlike Mayor, he has it in mafia's own voting who to kill. In other words, Boss's vote is counted as two when mafia plans a hit. The main idea of Boss is to make it easier for mafia to reach majority in what they kill. If mafia feel that someone is or will be rather inactive on 1st night, they can together appoint a Boss. Otherwise there will be no Boss in the game. Boss status cannot be ripped off and there will be no re-election after Boss's death.
Channeler * 1
Side: Innocent
Story: Since you were child, you have had weird visions and strange voices in your dreams. You couldn't manage to solve what the voices said, until the war against the mafia began. In that instance the first bloodbath happened, lots of more voices appeared, making you realize what an unusual ability you have: You can communicate with the dead!
Description: During night or day, you can choose one dead person to tell his point of view to the public (which is otherwise disallowed), for example you can ask the dead detective to tell the roles he has investigated. When you have decided the person you want to give oppoturnity to speak, send the Narrator a PM about who you want to give the chance. You can also give his message, if he has told it to you, otherwise I will wait until I receive it from him. If you don't want to reveal your identity to the channeler, say it to the Narrator and he will tell to your target to send the message.
Detective * 1
Side: Innocent
Story: Many times over, a single man has destroyed mafia's plans. As many times he has managed to slip past their fingers unharmed. You are the Detective, seeker of ultimate truth and end to mafia's dirty actions. Can you find out the identities of the mafiosos before they get yours?
Description: During each night you may select any one person to investigate and if you survive the night, the Narrator will tell you what their role is. You may send me your PM at any time during the day or night, but the Narrator must receive it by PM before deadline or you will investigate no one. Obviously, it is better if you can wait until night so that you can make the smartest decision.
Doctor * 1
Side: Innocent
Story: Before the war between innocents and the mafia, you used to patch up members from both factions. But when you realized that most of the sad cases were caused by the evil mafiosos, you decided to side with innocents, putting yourself on the black list of the mafia in the progress. You might have lost your fancy office and cool X-ray machines, but all you need is bandage and stimpack to keep your loved ones alive.
Description: During each night you may select one person to protect and that person will not die if they are the target of the mafia attack. You may protect yourself if you wish. You can protect somebody from a Mafia/vigilante hit, but not from the town decision's kill. If you haven't sent a PM to narrator about who you want to protect, you will automatically protect yourself.
Hitman * 1
Side: Mafioso
Story: You are arguably the most feared of the mafiosos, at least your .357 Magnum is. You are highly respected inside the mafia, but you tend to be arrogant and have made some freelance hits when you have had the time.
Description: Once in the game you can make an extra kill for the mafia. To do this, you must send the Narrator a PM in which you tell who you want to kill. While you can do this at day time, the kill will occure at night phase.
Innocent * 8
Side: Innocent
Story: Simple, dull and innocent.
Description: If only you had a special ability. Sadly you don't.
Mafioso * 1
Side: Mafioso
Story: Simple, dull and evil.
Description: If only you had a special ability. Sadly you don't.
Mayor
Side: ???
Story: You're a freshly elected mayor with power over the citizens of PSville. Such a charmer, aren't you?
Description: Besides your regular lynch vote, you can send the Narrator a PM, where you tell a name of the person you want to lynch as Mayor. The person you want to vote as Mayor doesn't need to be the same you are really voting.
MPDP (Multipersonality diseased person) * 1
Side: Mafioso
Story: Some people said that you're crazy and dangerous to the humanity itself. Those people who thought so sent you to local nuthouse. After several weeks of Ludovico's technique you were suddenly released from your prison by local mafia. You soon became good friends with them and adapted one of their personalities...
Description: Just like innocent wildcard, MPDP can choose one role from following list within 1st night and day phase. If he decides not to choose any or time runs up, he will become a sloppy with 1/6 chance of getting discovered each night!
List of roles: Torturer, Briber, Silencer and Prostitute. If MPDP isn't able to make his decision or doesn't want to, he will be Sloppy, so he better make up that choice.
Wildcard * 1
Side: Innocent
Story: Who the hell you were again? So many roles, that even I, the narrator, forgot who the heck you were. Well I guess its up to you. Who would you like to be?
Description: On 1st day and night, Wildcard can choose to become on of the roles that follows. If he decides not to choose any of them or can't make up his decision before the deadline, he will be given (bad) other role
List of roles: Lawyer, Barman, Martyr, Ghost, Construction Worker and Celebrite. If he isn't able to make his decision or doesn't want to, he will be regular innocent.

These are however no FINAL rules/roles, as the next host can change them before the game begins. Speaking of host, IF THERE IS SOMEONE TO TAKE CARE OF THIS GAME, I WOULD BE HAPPY TO GIVE MY HOST RIGHTS TO HIM/HER! Of course I can and will host the next game if I have to, but that would be my 4th time. And I think others should have the chance to host too! (PS membership is recommended to host!)
Also, TO PLAY IN THIS GAME WE DEMAND ACTIVE VISITING ON FORUMS! For sake of good game for everyone, please visit the forums at least ONCE per day and post in the topic!
Anyway, here is the list of current participants:
- Scary
- flow
- Daghel
- Johnnei
- Icecream
- davies
- Ammz
- Mefisto
- Fantomas
- Saukko
- Timon
Subscription will run end on Saturday. I hope to see many new faces besides old folk :)

As I said, these are not the final roles in the game. In other words, if most of the people want "Cool roles for everyone"-game, I will give you one. But in that case, I will put some other rules too.
