Powerless mafia, mafia win
Posted: Fri Jun 21, 2019 5:49 am
As discussed in the Into The Deep post-game talk.
This setup will have no power roles. Everyone will be simply Town or Mafia.
Rules (deviations/additions in bold and green):
Balancing this is sadly a nightmare and I will need like 15 players before I can add the second mafia member. This may sound strange BUT I have various reasons for this. Firstly, I am expecting town to do very poorly here given recent games. Secondly, town typically underperforms in this setup. Thirdly, the EV guideline (closest to 50% odds town will win if random lynching) is 4 townies to the first mafia, 19 townies to the second. 13 town and 2 mafia gives town an EV of about 43% which is good enough for me. Town is likely to lose, which means you guys will feel even better if you do manage to win.
You can look into the setup balance here.
Players:
1. Metsfanmax
2. dgz345
3. BuJaber
4. blacky365
5. Ragian
6. Strike Wolf
7. Skoffin
8. Pikanchion (dead, day 2) (town)
9. Razorvich (dead, night 2) (town)
10. DDS (dead, night 1) (town)
This setup will have no power roles. Everyone will be simply Town or Mafia.
Rules (deviations/additions in bold and green):
Spoiler
1.The moderator is always right. Do not try and argue with them. However we are all human and we all make mistakes. The moderator will try and fix any mistake he or she may have made.
2. Do not edit/delete previous posts. Whatever you say goes into historical record.
3. Do not quote any PM's you receive from the moderator or another player. You may say your name, role, associated abilities. This is a serious offence and could earn you a mod-kill, and/or a blacklist from future games.
***ADDENDUM. You may not claim any role because there are no roles. You may only claim that you are town. (you may also claim you are mafia but why the f*ck would you)
******ADDENDUMDUM. If Dakky claims to have any role or claims to have performed any sort of game-related action other than voting, he will be modkilled.
4. The game will not be discussed outside this thread, unless your role specifically says you can.
5. All ‘votes’ and ‘unvotes’ must be in bold and (visible...) color. If they are not, they will not be tallied. (I.E. Vote: Mandy). You must first unvote and then vote to change your vote from someone. Mods may change this according to their wishes.
6. Lynching requires a majority of the total votes, once the majority has been reached any unvotes will not be counted. The majority is half the players alive +1.
7. You may vote ‘no lynch’ to end the day without a death.
8. Lengths of days depend on moderators. Usually they are indefinite until the game starts dragging and then the moderator enforces a deadline.
***No deadlines. Keep playing until you get yourself a majority. Remember you can vote no lynch if you really are desperate.
9. Lengths of nights depend on moderator. Try and send the actions earlier if possible, and save everyone time. It's a hassle for the moderator to pm everyone who hasn't sent in an action.
***This one is just for the mafia, boys. Mafia will have 48 hours to confirm their night kill once the day has ended.
10. Once your death scene has been posted, it's over for you. You can no longer post anything related to the game. Whining is alright, **Voices from beyond the grave** are alright, as long as nothing of substance is revealed. This means you can post something like "Damn you mafia!" or "Oh well. Go town!" but you cannot post and add to the discussion. This is a serious offence.
11. Be attentive and active in the game. You will be replaced if you don't post. If something prevents you to participate for a long period of time, announce it here or via PM. Help everyone's enjoyment of the game by being active and sending your actions promptly.
***I doubt there will be a lot of reserves here so the deal is as follows. You must post every single game day. If the day ends and you haven't posted, I will modkill you. If someone isn't posting enough to your liking just fckin lynch em.
12. You cannot talk at night. You can do joke votes like "zzzzzz" if you want but don't let it get out of hand. Different moderators have different tolerance levels.
13. If you have any questions or doubts, send a private message to the moderator and ask for help. It would be much worse to remain unsure about your role, mafia rules, whatever than to ask the moderator and then understand.
***There's nothing to not understand. Don't bother me with PMs. If you by some small miracle still have questions, address me in the game topic in bold and (visible...) color.
14. This is the basic list of rules. Moderators will have their own specific changes or additions to rules. Make sure to check them.
15. Have fun!
