Mafia Competition

Hello everyone!

I'm sure some of you have heard of mafia before. It's a very popular forum game where there are different types of players with different roles. There are three main sides.

Town - Normal players. They are considered the 'good team', and have the most numbers. Some (or all of them) of them have roles. They win when all mafia is eliminated. They don't know who else is town, and need to eliminate who they think is the mafia.

Independent - Not all games have independents. These players are neutral, and have different win conditions, such as surviving the whole game, or killing a specific person. They usually find that it's easier to survive by siding with the town.

Mafia - These players know their other mafia buddies and who is town. They are outnumbered, and try to act like the town to stay alive and hide their 'evil.' They can kill someone every night, and the only way to find out who killed them is through some roles (which may or may not be present). They win when they outnumber the town, and they can communicate privately with their team members for strategies.

There are two phases, day and night. During the day, people talk in-thread and discuss the game and people's behaviour. They also vote during this time. The player with the most votes at the end of the phase is killed. During the night phase, you can still talk in-thread, but you cannot vote. People will PM me, the host, and use their night action if they have one.

During a game, you look for what is considered 'scummy' (mafia-like) behaviour from others. You vote for who you think is the most scum by using bold.

eg. VOTE: Elementar

You can always unvote using the same thing. After someone 'dies,' you find out their role and who they were siding with. Try to get as much as you can from these 'lynches.' Scum may vote their team members off if it becomes an inevitable lynch. See if people are changing their minds a lot, and are uncertain. Also, they may be 'sheeping,' and copying other people's reads and opinions. (Reads are whether you think someone is mafia or town, and your reasons for it).

Roles are specific abilities that you may have.  Some common ones are Cops (who can find out an alignment of a player), doctor (protect a player from a nightkill) and role-blocker (stops someone from using their role).  Players without roles are called vanilla (if they're town) or goon (if they're mafia).

To start off with, we'll do a basic mafia game so people who haven't played before can learn how to play. If I have missed any of the basics, please point it out.

Additionally, if your team wins, you all get 100 coins each!
