Day starts/ends:

General rules

Changes to the usual rule sets are marked in olive.

The Golden Rule:

Please remember that this is a game and your main objective is to have fun!  Be considerate of each other, don’t get personal, and enjoy the game. Please read The Civility Pledge before signing up for any mafia game on this site.  If you have not /pledged there, you cannot play. Excessive personal attacks or uncivil behavior may be dealt with by modifiers or modkills.

1. General Gameplay and Etiquette:

1. You may not quote information (either real or fabricated) from any game-related source other than the thread you are posting in. This means no quotes from PMs and no quotes from QTs in the main thread or in another QT. Paraphrasing is acceptable. If you are unsure whether a post is legal, please ask the moderator before posting.
2. There is to be NO personal communication outside of the forum postings and the QTs specifically designed for this purpose.
3. As a general rule you should aim for one post every 24 hours, minimum, to keep the game moving.

2. Voting, Deadlines, and Player Death:

1. Day phases will last 7 days, Night lasts at least 36 hours.
2. A simple majority (rounded up) of all living members must agree on one person for a lynch to occur prior to deadline.
3. Once you have reached a simple majority no further unvoting will change someone’s fate. Further votes will also be ignored.
4. Once a player is lynched the game enters twilight until the mod locks the thread; all players including the one who was lynched may continue to post during twilight.
5. If the deadline is hit without a player reaching the majority of votes, the player with the most votes will be lynched. If two or more players are tied, whoever had more votes at the end of the previous Day is lynched. If still tied, the lynchee is determined randomly among the tied players.
6. Please submit votes as: Vote: PlayerName.  Votes will NOT be counted if they are not bold or do not follow this syntax! Obvious abbreviations or nicknames will be counted so long as they are unambiguous.
7. Please submit vote revocations Unvote. Unvotes are not necessary before changing votes.
8. You may Vote: No Lynch - a simple majority of these vote types are required to send the game to Night phase without a lynch.
9. If the game goes on for 3 days and 3 nights without a lynch or night kill and there is at least one Mime left alive, the Mimes win. If no Mimes are left alive and this happens, town wins.
10. Once you are killed (either via lynch or night kill) you may no longer post in the game or in Quicktopics. This means that you do not even get a “Bah” post. The dead in this game are silent.
11. If the thread is locked, you may not post.  Threads can be locked for various reasons, but no matter what the reason, you may not post.  The mod may forget to lock the thread, but if they say it is locked, it is still locked.

3. Miscellaneous/Mechanics:

1. Bold, olive text is reserved for the mod.  No invisible/small text is allowed, nor is cryptography.
2. If you have an issue/problem with the game, please discuss this in your role QT.  Do not post issues/complaints in the game thread.
3. The Mods may make mistakes - please point out any mistakes gently.  Mistakes will be corrected where possible, but sometimes mistakes are made that cannot be reversed.  These will stand as final to be commiserated over after the game.
4. Please bold all requests to the Mods so that they don’t get missed.
5. Prods of missing players will be issued upon request after 24 hours of no activity.  A prodded player has 24 hours to respond or risks replacement. A player who has been prodded 2 times is subject to replacement under rule 3.9 without further notice.  If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period please post a notice to that effect in the thread.  Whether a prior announcement means that the missing player will not be replaced is up to the mod.
6. Please do not discuss ongoing games, it can unintentionally affect the other game. Do not discuss this game in any thread that is not directly related to it.
7. Rule violations will be dealt with according to their severity, which may include modkill(s) if needed.
8. Players who discover they are too busy to play in a game or want to leave the game for civility issues are not allowed to officially /out in the thread.  A request to /out must only be done via a post in the role QT. Please do not use this as a manipulation technique.  (Note players may continue to threaten to /out or imply that they might as long as it does not include an official request). Requests to /out are final once submitted. There will be no /outing and then /inning back into the game so make sure that when you /out you have thought it through and really want to do it. Players that can't be replaced will simply be mod-killed. Whether your request to /out will lead to replacement or a modkill is up to the mod's discretion.

Setup

This is a semi-open game that uses a Matrix setup. There are always three factions: Town, Mafia, Mimes. These are the win conditions for each group:

You win when all Mafia-aligned players are dead, there is at least 1 town player left alive, and no other faction has achieved its win-con.

You win when at least 50% of all living players are Mafia-aligned at night start, and at least one Mime has not been lynched, or when nothing can stop that from happening.

You win when all members of your faction have been lynched, or when at least 50% of all living players are Mime-aligned at daybreak.

There are 12 players in this game. Of those, 8 are Town-aligned, 2 are Mafia-aligned, and 2 are Mime-aligned.

Setup is determined as follows: I will randomly choose any row, column, or one of the tow diagonals from the matrix below. The very first and last row and column cannot be selected. The PRs from there will be added to the game. Then, the game is filled with Vanilla member of the three factions to reach the faction sizes detailed above. All scum powers are factional abilities. Active factional ablities may not be used in conjunction with the main factional ability, which is a kill for the Mafia and a Jailkeeper for the Mimes, unless there is only a single member of the faction left alive.

Mime Miller	Mime 1-shot Bulletproof	Mime Goon	Mime 1-shot Janitor	Mafia Strong-Willed
Mime Goon	Odd-Night Mafia Cop	Vanilla Townie	Vanilla Townie	Mafia Goon
Mime Miller	1-shot Vigilante	Weak Doctor	1-shot Deathproof	Mafia 1-shot Janitor
Mime 1-shot Bulletproof	Babysitter	Jailkeeper	Bomb	Mafia Strong-Willed
Mime 1-shot Janitor	Mafia Roleblocker	Mafia 1-shot Janitor	Mafia Goon	Mafia Roleblocker

Clarifications:

- both scum teams have daychat.
- the Mimes have a factional Jailkeeper that they may use once each Night. They cannot self-target, but one Mime may target the other.
- the Mime's 1-shot Bulletproof is a shared power and will be used up the first time a Mime would be killed. The Mimes are not informed when this happens.
- the Odd-Night Mafia Cop receives only the result Mafia if their target is Mafia-aligned, and no result in all other cases.
- the Weak Doctor dies when targeting a Mafia-aligned player or the 1-shot Vigilante. Their target is still protected in this case.
- the Mime Miller investigates as Mafia to the Odd-Night Mafia Cop, and will kill the Weak Doctor if targeted. Mimes may decide during N0 which of them should be the Miller.
- Babysitter counts as a killing action, and will trigger the Bomb if targeting them, effectively killing both.
- a Mafia Strong-Willed cannot be blocked by Jailkeepers, but the kill will still fail if the target is jailkept. The Mafia may decide N0 who of them should be Strong-Willed.
- if Mimes or Mafia have a 1-shot Janitor, they may select 2 players each Night (including N0). If either dies that Night or at the end of the following Day, there will be no flip. Once this has happened, there can be no further Janitoring. The Janitoring fails if at least one member of the team was roleblocked; in this case the shot is not used up.
- in case of conflict, the resolution order for roleblocking is Mime Jailkeeper -> Mafia Roleblocker -> Town Jailkeeper.
- only town PRs will receive individual QTs!

Flavor:

Flavor will come from the show Gilmore Girls. It is not necessary to be familiar with the show, at least not for the purposes of this game. Only Power Roles and scum players will have flavor names, each town PR has a fixed assigned name as detailed below. VTs will simply be known as Vanilla Residents of Stars Hollow.

Mimes are back ! Awesome, though I'll probably be spectating this one.

[theorel]

I want to play Mafia again, so \in.

[faust]

More info added. If you have any further questions on the setup, it is probably best to ask before game start. For reference, Mimes have been used previously on f.ds in M66.

Setup looks fun, but not going to in at this time.

I totally have time to play this even if my RMM eventually fills, right? :-P

(I like the setup, but I don't know the flavour at all -- I assume that's okay?)

It may be, but it is not okay to not read the setup post, where such things are clarified.

I thought not reading the setup was a town meta thing to do?

[silverspawn]

faust is known to be very supportive and understanding of that meta.

Lane and Rory should be switched.

-mime win means everyone else immediately loses?
-a mime getting nightkilled means the other one suicides?

I read half the setup post and decided it sounded like fun. I promise I'll read the whole thing in detail before play begins :-)

[theorel]

Yeah, I'm a little unclear on the end-game.
It sounds like mime lynching does not end the game?
So, if both mimes are lynched they win, along with whichever other faction wins?  (Wait, no mafia cannot win in that case.  per the win-con, but town still can?)

And for end-game scenarios with mimes...it sounds like, from the win-cons you get the following situations:
2 town, 1 mime: town wins, mimes lose.  (Or more generically, X Town, Y Mimes->Town win mime loss for any X>Y.)
1 town, 1 mime: town and mimes win.
1/2 town, 2 mimes: town and mimes win.
2 mimes, 2 mafia at daybreak: both win? (mime win-con is met immediately, mafia wincon could be met eventually)
1 mime, 1 mafia: mime win only?  Mime can constantly jailkeep mafia, so mafia can never reach wincon (unless strong-willed)?

If we get to 1 of each...
if mime is lynched: mime wins alone.
if town is lynched: mime wins alone (unless mafia is strong-willed as above)
if mafia is lynched: mime and town wins together.
So, mime wins, and mafia needs to lynch mime, mime needs to lynch town.  That sounds interesting.

(all of this assumes no mime has been nked before the scenario begins).  Is that all accurate?  I assume the role PM will make it clear if the mimes die together on nk.

[silverspawn]

I think if any faction wins the other 2 lose.
