Mafia: Basic

[Bailey]

Alright, I'm running a game of mafia. I've already decided which slot gets each role, so as soon as they are all filled the game can start. You all know the rules. During the day, you talk, and vote on who to kill as a town. During the night, people send in actions, while nobody posts in the thread. Mafia discuss among themselves and the Don chooses somebody to kill. The Vigilante and Serial Killer each choose somebody to kill. The detective and reporter each investigate somebody, and the doctor chooses somebody to make a house call on in an attempt to save them.

One change here. One person will be allowed to talk at night. The person who was lynched may make one post after I post their death, and this will be their last words. Normally this will just be something like "oh well" or "you got me' or "good game", but in some cases, it might be "person x is a mafiate, avenge me."

The only limit on the last words is that you may not exceed 75 characters, so put it through word count first.

Anyone who deletes a post and is caught doing so dies. No questions asked. If you truly feel compelled, copy the contents of the post to a PM, send them to me, and edit the post to say "this post not here." I may ask you to put it back.

Any time you edit a post, you must fill in the reason tag.

The sides are as follows:

Town:
Civilians (15)
Detective (1)
Doctor (1)
Vigilante (1)

Mafiates (5)

Reporter (1)

Serial Killer (1)

As you can see, Reporter, which few of you will recognize, is on a side of his own. He wins when all that's left is himself and civilians. Like the detective, he investigates, but unlike the detective, his investigations are published and delivered to everybody's front steps.

Now, the reporter is odd in that the town can still win if he is alive, despite having different win conditions from the town.

The town just needs to get rid of the mafiates and the killer to win.

Rather than secret roles, I came up with some personality traits, and randomized them seperately from the roles. Only one of these could ever be considered inherently bad for the recipient, and the way the dice landed it is not so this time.

So send in those join requests via PM people!

Let's get this going!

1 Supreme Edgemaster the Normal Civilian
2 Major_Blood
3 catlover20410 the Normal Mafiate
4 The_Wandering_God
5 DarthMauler64
6 Mesden
7 B_real_shadows the normal civilian
8 h4x.m4g3
9 Thundergod_Cid
10 POS_Industries
11 Grthwllms the Obvious Civilian
12 CallmePrismatic
13 FenrisWolf
14 Ecurt the Normal Civilian
15 CrazyBen
16 SithDarth the Normal Serial Killer
17 sk3l3t0n the talkative doctor
18 Inbred Chocobo the Normal Civilian
19 Neyo the King the Normal Vigilante

...okay.

It's been four days. Sorry to sound impatient, but I'd like to know if this game was going anywhere or not.

[Bailey]

GRRRR!

This is my angry face!

Neither role sent something in.

I'm going to replace everybody who doesn't participate today that I can, because what with the random rolling, I really don't want people accusing me of changing those to influence the game.

Just as a note, if ever the detective needs to be rolled for, they will not recieve the results until the next time they tell me who they are investigating.

Anyways, the game begins!

*********************************************

Late last night, the doctor was visiting his good friend TWG, and, seeing the time, went to go get ready for the trip back to his house. While he was in the bathroom, a strange man clad in white burst in through the door. "I detect evil!" He proclaimed before shooting poor TWG and running off. The doctor, hearing the gunfire, rushed out and managed to stabilize TWG's condition, and he made a full recovery.

**************************

Grthwllms heard a knock at the door. He threw on his shirt, which had Obvious Civilian printed on it, and walked down the steps. He opened the door, and took five bullets in the chest. By the time the ambulance arrived, it was too late. One person knew what he was, but that made no difference now.

****************

The day begins and you all have a newspaper on your front steps.

EXTRA! EXTRA!
Inbred Chocobo, the Normal Civilian has been killed in a truly bizarre manner. His toes were sliced off and fed to him, his stomach cut open, and finally his lungs were filled with sulfuric acid. The only guess put forward by this reporter is that perhaps some new serial killer is trying to develop their own style.

[DarthMauler64]

Finally!!! It's day time!!!

Here is what I think right now

The bodyguard is probally active because the BG defended TWG, perhaps because of what happened in Soliders of Light (being a good townie/making many people angry).

I am almost sure the mafia don might be inactive because Grthwllms was killed and he had 5 bullets for 5 people. I don't know who this is, but if I were the mafia I would have gone for a talkative contributing person.

I don't have a solid idea for any of the other roles.

I'll hold off my vote untill I see what other people have to say.

[Mesden]

Alright, let's get obviousness out of the way.

Good Job Mr. Doctor, or maybe not, depending on TWG's allignment.

Atleast the SK hit a townie as well as the other killing role and not something more important.

And now, votes shall be thrown about to start the game and I believe I will be first on this list given my past history. (I refer you to CmP saying he would vote for me as soon as the next game starts).

All I can say is, what are the odds that I'm evil AGAIN? I'll lay my fate un your hands and submit that I'm town alligned.

Don't take this as being overly wary, I'm just putting out my reasons before someone up and accuses me for my record and not game based events.

Edit to say, BAD JOB MR. VIG! Maybe, depending on whether or not TWG is evil(If that was his target). And if Grth was his target, then BAD!

[CallmePrismatic]

Hmm...

Vigilante went after TWG who was saved by the doctor. Doesn't completely absolve him from all suspicion, but I think he's on a more town-affiliated gradient based on the little evidence so far. What this does show, without a shadow of a doubt, is that the Vigilante doesn't recognize the 'may' clause. Just for the record Mr(s). Vig - You DON'T have to kill. The Doctor shouldn't have to use all his luck protecting townies from the Vigilante.

So did both the reporter AND the serial killer target Inbred, hence why the newspaper details the dead?

Anyways...

Vote: Mesden. That's my placeholder until evidence shows up for a real vote, but Mesden has been anti-townie in most (if not all?) of the games so far so we can't be too careful. Think of it as a throwaway joke instead of a true-feeling, all ye who would use this to wrongly crucify me.

For the "(If not all?)". Yes, I have NEVER been on the good side, even when I had a choice of good or evil.

So, to return the favor, I will refer everyone to my top post just so I don't have to make the argument again.

[Major Blood]

Just quickly saying something before my next class, Since CmP is such a good player, i don't think anyone should randomly throw their vote at him unless you have a good reason too. So i think we should keep him alive until he starts showing signs of scummyness.

[CallmePrismatic]

Throwaway joke. JOKE.

Although, would you mind explaining/clarifying this ditty...

Atleast the SK hit a townie as well as the other killing role and not something more important.

The SK can only hit one thing, and its never good to hit a townie. I know you might mean something like "At least he didn't hit the PO/Doc/Reporter", but losing ANY Town-aligned player is automatically bad, even if they're Vanilla.

Of coures, but, I said at least. The SK WAS going to hit something, and a Townie is the least of the negatives we could lose.(Aside from a townie with a bad role, I guess. If we have one.)

And, I could've sworn the reporter was a self alligned. What would be so bad if he died? Sure, his power can kill mafiates, but, it does the same for our roles until he is the last left.

So, yes, I meant what you interpretted it as, but, what was with the reporter support?
