Mafia game 20: Subscription
by GoldenBullet » Sat Sep 03, 2011 15:44
I cannot believe we are upto game 20 now. It only started because of Harpix's silly idea to keep this kind of game on our forums. From those few roles we had back then our variety of roles has been expanded greatly and rules been honed to give pleasant play for both of the teams. But what am I talking this nonsense, I have more important things to do!
This is the subscription topic for our 20th Mafia game we have here on our very own forums. I have once again honor to host the game and write my silly stories. If you haven't played the Mafia game before don't worry! This game is extremely easy to learn but still manages to give lots of challenge to the more experienced players aswell.
Here is the idea of the game in a nutshell:
Rules in a nutshell
The idea of the game is simple: Mafia tries to kill all the innocents and innocents try to kill all the mafiosos. 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. In other words, mafia has reached the majority.
The game proceeds like this: Each participant gets their role from the Narrator. Roles are random. Mafia players are advised who the other mafiosi 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 innocents 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.
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.) More activity = More fun!
Posting pm's from the Narrator to you is strictly forbidden. Violation of this rule will lead to direct elimination!!
There has been few games where revealing your role was forbidden. However since there won't be so many roles this game, you ARE ALLOWED to lie/reveal your role anyrime you wish. Only question is if you are believed or not.
Roles of Mafia game 20*
Detective
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.
Equipment: Magnifying glass and black list.
Mission: Find and investigate Mafia members.
Vigilante
Side: Innocent
You are the Vigilante. Once and only once during the game, you may send me a PM and say that you elect to kill any one other player. If you are still alive that night, you will sneak out to their house and kill them. You are an innocent, so you should choose someone you strongly believe to be mafia. However, you only get one chance to perform this action, so you have to act before you are killed.
Channeler
Side: Innocent
Story: You used to pull a prank and tell people you could communicate with their dead ancestors. That was until you noticed that you really could. It freaked you out first, but you realized the advantages of such ability. Now you use it to squash the mafia by telling what the dead people think. But are they correct?
Description: You are allowed to contact with the dead people. Once a night you can send narrator a PM, where you tell him who dead person you want to give rights to speak that night. He will then send narrator a message, where he tells what he wants. This message will be told anonymously by the narrator to the public. You can also send the message from the dead yourself, but faking a message is FORBIDDEN.
Equipment: A crystal ball, which doesn't actually work. It's just for a show.
Mission: If detective dies, it is your duty to contact him and share his investigations with the public.
Doctor
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.
Equipment: Aspirin and duct tape (it fixes everything man!)
Mission: Protect Innocents. Find and protect Detective and Bulletproof the most.
Bulletproof
Side: Innocent
Story: Eye of the eagle and ear of the fox. As ex-military from special forces called Prime Sqadron you are always ready for the worst. Thats explain why you are always wearing your kevlar jacket and few granades in your bag.
Description: All the time during the game you are protected by mafia hit. Hovever you are not protected from Hitmans shot. But beware, you can be lynched as anyone else in this town, innocents are counting on you.
Equipment: Kevlar Jacket and a pendant (which seems to block bullets much more efficiently than your jacket.)
Mission: Survive at least one mafia attack.
Masons (2x)
Side: Innocent
Story: Masons are members of ancient group where every member knows each other. They protect each other by telling what is going on.
Description: Once in a game Masons have to decide together who will they invite into their group. Masons have to send PM to narrator to be able to get that person into their group they invited. But you need to be careful not to invite a mafioso because then you would reveal your roles to the Mafia.
Equipment: Clean clothes and an invitation card to coming Mason.
Mission: Invite an innocent into the group.
Procurator
Side: Innocent
Once in the game, you can send me a PM with a name of a person that you would like to tell his role in public. I will announce the role and the name of that person, so everyone knows what role he has. But, be careful, you might hit an important innocent role, and that would mean trouble for you and the other innocents!
Innocent (x?)
Side: Innocent
Story: Simple, dull and innocent.
Description: If only you had a special ability. Sadly you don't.
Equipment: Bills. Lots of them. Maybe you owe mafia something?
Mission: Survive and kill the mafia.
Boss (additional role)
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.
Equipment: Signet and Cigar.
Mission: Be the most active mafia player so you will ALWAYS have the majority who to kill by the end of the night.
Hitman
Side: Mafioso
Story: You are arguably the most feared of the mafiosos, at least your Desert Eagle 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. However you can't kill person protected by doctor, so choose wisely.
Equipment: Sniper Rifle.
Mission: Search and destory. Target - Bulletproof.
Silencer
You are the silencer. With your steroid muscle body and a lot of gunpower you are able to scare the Prime-Squadron spirit out of any PSland citizens.
Therefore you can make them incapable of voting for 1 day. You can do this every night. However You are NOT allowed to choose the same person TWICE in a row.
Prostitute
Side: Mafioso
Story: No one knows how you actually became a prostitute. Frankly, no one dares to ask you. However you're handsome enough with all those muscles and shapes that any woman (or man) will kneel at your beauty, but behind it lurks a horrible man with passion for blood and gore. You sometimes amuse yourself with innocents by exposing as woman, then infecting them with AIDS via butts- er... Well you get what I mean.
Description: Once in a game you can infect a player. Your victim will loose ALL of his roles. Use your power wisely. To use your power, send narrator a PM, where you tell who you want to use your ability on.
Equipment: A dress and a smile.
Mission: Find and infect an important innocent, like the Doctor.
Mafioso (x1)
Side: Mafioso
Story: Simple, dull and evil.
Description: If only you had a special ability. Sadly you don't.
Equipment: Guns&Knifes
Mission: Eliminate enough innocents to reach majority in lynching.
Mayor (additional role)
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 are voting for.
Equipment: Tophat.
Mission: Helping your team/confusing opponents.
[s]Shadow
Side: Neutral
Story: You are a man of your own destiny. You have tried to stay away from all this mess between the mafia and the innocents, but I guess you are now in it for good. Now you're just trying to make yourself out of it alive.
Description: You are a team of your own. Unlike innocents and mafia, all you need to do to win is to be alive in the end of the game. Die, and you lose.
To compensate the lack of teammates, you have one extra vote to make daily. Send it via PM to narrator. In addition, you have protection against one mafia hit.
Equipment: Shady coat with hood.
Mission: Stay out of trouble. Use your daily extra vote wisely.[/s]

The game can last for a long time, or for a short time. It ends when either all mafia are dead, or if mafia killed enough innocents (so the mafia can have majority during day).
Usually it takes about 3 weeks, Id say.
Speccing is okay with me, but playing is more fun imo ^^ You can just try, we all make mistakes... just be sure to read the rules, and be active!
