Welcome to Mafia XVI - Gambling with Death in Casino HelsinkiI talked to O and confirmed that he would be ok with me starting my game before his. This game will not start until Insomniac's Switch game is at least into Day 2, but it may start after that depending on the mafia load at that time. In all likelihood, the draft process (see below) will start when that game starts Day 2 and will officially start a few days after.

This game run a
Pick Your Power set up. This set up is a 14-player open setup with 16 possible roles included in the game, each role paired with another. Players will participate in a pregame draft for a chance to bid on a set of roles. Players winning a role will pick one of the two in the set. Players can obtain a role regardless of alignment, so it is possible to see some interesting combinations.
Basic Setup3 Mafia11 TowniesBoth can be any of the following pairs.
- Night 3 Vigilante OR Vengeful
- 1-Shot Vigilante OR 1-Shot PGO (active)
- Cop OR 1-Shot Redirector
- 1-Shot Commuter OR 1-Shot Watcher
- Doctor OR Roleblocker
- Universal Backup OR Role Cop
- Neighborizer OR Fruit Vendor
- Jailkeeper OR Tracker
Mechanics - At the beginning of the game, there is a draft to determine the order for the bidding on roles.
- Once this has happened, each player will send in the role they'd like to be. Only one role from each "slot" will be awarded, for example; there cannot be a Doctor and a Roleblocker in the game.
- As such, in the event multiple players select the same role (or the same "slot"), the player highest in the draft order wins the role, whilst the others remain Vanilla.
- Roles are then distributed and Day 1 begins.
- Throughout the bidding phases, the thread is locked.
The Draft - Once alignments have been dealt out, each player must send a (whole) number back to the mod, with the lowest unique number winning the draft. Second place is awarded to the second lowest unique number and so on, until all unique numbers have been exhausted. Next placed on the list is the lowest doubled numbers, followed by the next lowest doubled numbers, and so on. Continue this same process for triples and quadruples.
- In cases of multiple players selecting the same number, the higher placed between these players is chosen randomly.
- The whole numbers sent in will be published in draft order, but not with the owners of the numbers listed. This is to prevent the first player listed to be confirmed "power role."
Bidding for Roles- Once the draft order has been determined, each player PM's the moderator of the game with the role they'd like to be. Roles are unisex, in the sense, that they can be selected by Mafia or Town. So, it's possible to have a Mafia 1-Shot Vig or a Town 1-Shot Vig, and so on.
Other Information - An individual Mafia member cannot nightkill and use a power on the same night.
- Tracker/Role Cop/Watcher/Cop results will be worded in a way to stay ambiguous to redirection; "Your target went X" or "Your target is X", for example.
- Mafia will be given access to a quicktopic, but are not allowed to discuss pregame until roles are sent out.
Mafia does not have a daytalk - There can be at most 8 power roles in the game and at least 1. Any player who does not win a power role, regardless of alignment will become either a Vanilla Townie or Vanilla Mafia Goon.
