Mafia V, Guest Host Round

[Alusair]

It's mafia.

Told by Lord Tevo, Lord Sho tells us:

Mafia is a game. It is played in real life, and from that, we have derived an internet-friendly version that is playable here on the forums. That's right, here's the game you all know and hate. Except now the rules have been changed, so you can hate it even more!

The Rules:

Objectives: There are two sides: the Mafia and the civilians. The Civilians win by lynching the Mafia and the Mafia win by killing the Civilians.

Process: This game consists of rounds. Each round lasts two days. There are two parts to a round: the day phase and the night phase. The day phase lasts the entirety of the round in the online version. The night phase is instant and consists of the host declaring who was lynched and who was killed, along with any other events that need mentioning. During the day phase, players vote on who will be lynched that round. There will always be someone chosen for lynching. Ties will be broken by a random number generator. Also, if a player has a special ability that requires them to PM the host in order to use it, they do this during the day phase (seeing as the night phase is instant and all).

PMing: Players are free to PM whoever they want. However, quoting another player's PM or the Host's PM is not allowed (unless you are sending it to the host), nor can you ask another player about what the host PMed them (you can ask them what their identity is, but nothing about the PM sent to them). Also, when you are killed in the game, you may no longer PM or post in the thread. The only exception to this is the ghost's ability, which will be described shortly.

Mod-Killing: Any player in violation of the rules will be mod-killed. Also, any player inactive for two rounds in a row will mod-killed.

Players: These players each have a primary role and a secondary role. Both roles are only known to you at the start of the game (except for the Mafia, who know each other's primary roles).

Primary Roles: The game has four primary roles: Civilians (x), Mafia (x (number of people signed up divided by 5 rounded down)+1(depending on how many people play)), a Seer, and a Doctor.

Civilian: The ordinary person. This primary role brings no special ability or benefit. You simply get to vote.

Mafia: The "evil" person. These players begin the game knowing each other so that they can communicate through PM's. Each round, they agree upon who to target and PM this information to the host. Their target will be killed during that round's night phase (unless somehow saved). PM's should have a primary and a backup target, in case the primary target is lynched.

Addendum: The Mafia may not oust each other under any circumstances. If an Mafia is found to be doing this, they should be reported to either myself, or the host, and they well be banned from the game, and the following game of Mafia.

Oracle: The "seer." This player may discover the identity of a player every other round. The seer PM's the name of the target player to the host and the host will reveal the information to the seer. The information includes both the primary and secondary roles.

Doctor: This player may select a person every other round. If the target player is targeted by the Mafia that same round, that player is not killed. The doctor should PM the target's name to the host. It is also asked that you include a backup target in case your primary target is lynched.

Secondary Roles: The game has sixteen secondary roles. These are randomly distributed between each player at the start of the game.

Liar: The person who is voted for by liar on the lynch board loses the liar's vote and 1 more.

Gambler (Does not start off unless 20+ people join): Chooses two players every other round. One player's role is revealed to the other (it's random). The gambler does not get this information. This ability MUST be used when available. This ability is used by PMing the host the names of the two target players.

Con Artist: May switch one player's vote every other round. This ability is used by PMing the host the name of the target player.

The 'Witness': May save one person from being lynched during the game. Your role is revealed when you do this. You can't use this power on yourself. This ability is used by PMing the host the name of the target player. You may include more than one player's name.

Mind Flayer: Negates one player's ability every other turn. This ability is used by PMing the host the name of the target player.

Ghost: If killed with this secondary ability, can still vote. You vote by sending me a PM.

Fallen Elf, "Mutate": Randomly reassigns a person's secondary ability. This ability is used by PMing the host the name of the target player. This ability may be used every round.

Immortal: Automatically saved from death once per game.

Vulture: Vote power starts at 0 and increases by a half each time a person dies.

Shielder: Can sacrifice self to save another person from death (Via Mafia kill). Target a player who you want to save. If the target player is picked by the doctor, then the Shielder still dies. If the Shielder is targeted by the doctor, the Shielder and the Mafia Target lives. If you activate this ability, then you cannot turn it off but can change your target.

Virus: Kills self and target player. The target player always dies unless immortal. You still die regardless. This ability is activated by sending a PM to the host.

Schrodinger's Cat: Your ability is a random one of any dead person this round. Has no effect first round.

Crusader, "Endow": Trade secondary roles with a person. Person you traded with gets the "Endow" ability (which is your original one).

Chimera: You get a different secondary ability between {Gambler, Inverter, Con Artist, Mind Flayer, Crusader, Fallen Elf, Deal Sealer, Twin Universe} each round. This will be PM'd you by the host. If you get crusader and you use it, you will give Chimera to the other player.

Vigilante: Target Player's vote counts twice.

Inverter: Person's voting power is inverted. (IE, a vulture had 3 voting, but was inverted, then the vulture actually removes 3 votes from his target). Can be used every other round.

Scorpion: Vote for a player. That player is PM'd stating that they received a Poison Counter. Each Poison Counter counts as 1 vote for that player.

Fog Generator: The next round all votes are placed in secret (Via PM to me). Once used, cannot be used for 3 rounds. Cannot be used first round.

Devourer: Set one random person's voting power to 0 for this round. Happens automatically every round.

Voodoo Doll: Abilities that affect you are directed at a random player instead, with the exception of role-changing abilities like Mutate (Fallen Elf) and Endow (Crusader).

Twin Universe: Copy target player's ability. One use only.

Deal Sealer: Lock down a person's vote after it is cast, if that person tries to change their vote later, the change is not counted. Can be used every other round.


Remember, secondary roles have nothing to do with primary roles.

Some secondary activated skills notes: This does not apply to primary roles. You may only use one activated skill per round. If you use your activated skill and your skill is changed later during that round into another skill that requires activation, you may not activate that skill until the next round. If your activated skill is changed before you used it, you may use the new one that round. If your activated ability was used in the previous round and you can only use it every other round and your ability is changed, you can use the new ability this round (even if it happens to be the same ability). If you used the priest's ability in a previous round, you still get the information that you would get even if your ability is changed. If you used the shielder's ability and your ability is changed, you still have the "gravity pull" status, because it can not be turned off. By saying "no lynch" you cast a vote for yourself, and it will be treated as two. By voting for yourself you cast a vote that is treated as two. So is voting for yourself. So vote or die.

Posted votes always show visibly as 1 point, unless someone is voting for themselves, in which case it is 2 points. Number-changing abilities should not be shown, and will be calculated into the final results by the host at the end of the round, assuming they are activated.

IMPORTANT: You MAY NOT talk about this game with people who are dead. In addition taking this game outside the rules is PROHIBITED. This includes activities such as giving people negative reputation for voting for you. Anyone found to do this will be permanently banned from this game as long as it is played.

New Changes to Mafia

Extension to Mod-Kill Rule: An accumulation of three rounds of inactivity during the duration of the game will result in a modkill.

People who are modkilled in Mafia are banned from the next game of Mafia (old rule, but clarifying it here).

New No-Vote Ability: Players can abstain from voting during a round of the game without it counting against them as inactivity by PMing the host before the end of the round, stating that they are doing a No Vote. This can only be used once per player for the entire duration of this game.

New Secondary Roles: Devourer, Voodoo, Twin Universe, and Deal Sealer added to the game.

That should be everything you need to know in order to play the game.


Sign ups will last 3 days.

Notice: Alusair is the host this round! Don't forget when sending your PMs!

[Revoltion]

Weeeee In.

[Revoltion]

I've played 4 times.
3x I had a minor role, 1x I was mafia and got killed off due to a lucky gamble, and this will be my 5th. But I've been able to watch over people for 4 games now =D

[devis666]

I'm in...........

[wpack10]

Signing up

[TheGr8UNKy]

I'm in. ...

[LadyMariana]

Ooh I'm already on the list good good. So in! Nice new roles btw.

[eric0095]

Can we add Neutral Roles, and take out forced votes?

Examples of Neutral Roles:

Jester - No abilities, mission is to be lynched. When successfully lynched, one of the guilty voters is randomly chosen to die (due to grief over the Jester's death).

Executioner - No abilities, mission is to lynch a randomly assigned person (Usually the Jester). If target should die of non-lynching, the Executioner becomes a Jester

Serial Killer - Mission is to be the last player standing. Ability: Kill one person each round.

Arsonist - Mission is to be the last player standing. Starts 'doused'. Can un-douse self, by taking no action for a round. Can douse one person each round. Can BURN all doused players. Only one action per round though.

etc

They'd show up as Neutral/???

[Server139Player]

I'm in.
