Mafia Ruleset

Game Rules:

General Gameplay and Etiquette:
1. You may not quote private Moderator-supplied information (either real or fabricated) of any kind.  Paraphrasing (for role claims, etc.) is acceptable.
2. There is to be NO personal communication outside of the forum postings unless your role PM specifically allows it.  Mafia members may communicate at night and during the confirmation stage.
3. If you have a role with a Night action your choices are due to me by the posted deadline (generally 48 hours from Night start).  If I do not receive your choice via PM by the posted deadline you will forfeit your actions.  In case of multiple submissions, the last valid one before the deadline will be used.
4. Roles with Night actions will not be able to submit an action on Night 0 (i.e. during the confirmation stage).
5. Any player with a Night action may instead submit a “No Action” PM to let the Mod know that you do not want to perform your expected action that Night phase.
6. As a general rule you should aim for one post every 48 hours, minimum, to keep the game moving.

Voting, Deadlines, and Player Death:
1. A simple majority (rounded up) of all living members must agree on one person for a lynch to occur prior to deadline.
2. Once you have reached a simple majority no further unvoting will change someone’s fate.  Further votes will also be ignored.
3. Once a player is lynched the game enters twilight until I post a death scene; all players including the one who was lynched may continue to post during twilight.
4. 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.
5. Please submit vote revocations as either Unvote: PlayerName or Unvote. Unvotes are not necessary before changing votes.
6. You may Vote: No Lynch - a simple majority of these vote types are required to send the game to Night phase without a lynch.
7. This game will generally have 2 week deadlines.  If a player or No Lynch does not have a simple majority at deadline, no lynch will occur, and the game will go into night.
8. Once you are killed (either via lynch or night kill) you may no longer post. This means that you do not even get a “Bah” post. The dead in this game are silent.
9. Do not edit or delete posts.  We don't want some players having more information than others.  If you want to clarify posts, feel free to double post.

Miscellaneous/Mechanics:
1. Bold, blue 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 PM the Mod privately.  Do not post issues/complaints in the game thread.
3. The Mod 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 Mod so that they don’t get missed.
5. Prods of missing players will be issued automatically after 72 hours of no activity or upon request after 48 hours of no activity.  A prodded player has 48 hours to respond or risks replacement.  A player who has been prodded 3 times is subject to replacement without further notice.
6. Rule violations will be dealt with according to their severity, up to and including a Modkill.
7. If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period please post a notice to that effect in the thread.  Treat this game as a commitment.  Be considerate – don’t leave us hanging.

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.

Hello.  Name's Bruce.  It's all right.  I understand.  Why trust a shark, right?

Is quite curious - Who is the mystical "Celestial Chameleon"?

That makes 8 confirmed, so let's get this started up!

------------

Autumn.  A time of Harvest, celebration, and good will amongst all.

Which makes it all the more aggravating for the Mafia to have picked autumn to sneak into your sleepy little Hamlet. 

It was the local Fortune Teller who predicted their arrival first.  Telling the Tournament champion's future, she turned over the Death card, the Mafia card, and the Nine of Noses.  All the more puzzling as her standard pack didn't even have a Death card.

And then your noses all turned up stolen.  Someone suggested lynching the local Jester, because that's always a great idea.  But when they went to his hovel, they found him sprawled on the floor, a sharpened Horn of Plenty having been used to ignominious - and fatal - effect.

The Mafia are amongst you.  They have your noses.  Will you get your noses back?  Or die, noseless and forlorn?  Only time will tell.

Day 1 Start!

Not Voting {9}:
Robz888, Eevee, Galzria, Young Nick, manda2014, timchen, Captain_Frisk, shark_bait, pingpongsam

With 9 alive, it takes 5 to lynch

Lynch deadline: Saturday, July 28, at 7:30 p.m. forum time

Let's start talking!

frisk, how do you manage to write so many lengthy posts while being SK yourself in MIV? That is something quite remarkable! Also, I still don't understand why you shoot axxle n3.

Hey!  In front of a real keyboard now - so I can respond.

First your question: I speak english, and can touch type - so banging out long posts isn't so hard.  I also work in front of my computer most days, so i have good opportunities for big posts.

Second: Can't discuss M6, but playing Serial Killer was not substantially different (for me) than playing town.  I always wanted to scumhunt, and most of the time I wanted the mafia to die.

Third: Mafia IV discussion belongs in the Mafia IV Thread

Fourth: I really enjoyed how you opened this thread with a very subtle reminder to everyone how I was able to play scum so effectively.

Vote: timechen - because i believe in early voting - but this is the first time in any game that my first vote had anything resembling an argument behind it.

Ok, I'll follow my MIV question over there.

You know, the hard thing is not to compose a long post like that. I also have a few long posts when I was arguing with WW. The problem is, given the additional information you have, the willingness to spend the time writing things you know are just BS... that is, in all honesty, beyond me. I admit I didn't check back to see how many points you have made has assumed someone else as SK, but I think there is at least some.

Hmm, were you trying to shift the focus from the scum-playing effectiveness to language and computer abilities?

I'll follow suit.

OMGUS!

Responded to timchen over in M4 discussion.  Going to go watch movie with wife.

As for scum playing effectiveness - I still lost... I couldn't even convince them with a LEGIT serial killer cliam... uggh.

So I see 3 new players - Manda, Young Nick, and shark_bait.  How many of the other games have you followed?

I started following Mafia right at the beginning of Mafia III, and I followed III and IV really closely. I went back and read a little of I and II, but I'll admit I didn't get all the way through either of them. I'm following Role Madness right now and super excited to finally be playing!

I've seen Manda lurking ALL of the Mafia threads, quite often. (S?)He should be quite informed on how this show goes. :)
