    RULES

    No talking about the game outside of this thread unless I have given you a QuickTopic to do so in.
    Once you are dead, do not post. You may make one contentless "bah" post, but if I feel like it affects the game too much, it will be removed.
    You may not quote or screenshot any moderator PMs. Paraphrasing is allowed, but don't try to get around this rule by simply changing a few words.
    You may not edit or delete your posts. I don't care if you made a typo, your tag broke, etc. Just make a new post. As a warning, I am watching this thread fairly often- if I see a post and it disappears, you will be punished. Taking the risk of breaking this rule is not worth it.

    Behave. I don't care much for ad hominem/personal attacks, malicious immaturity, etc. Remember that this is a game. Don't ruin it for other players.

    Failure to follow these rules will result in replacement or further punishment at moderator discretion.
    Warnings will be scarce.


    GAMEPLAY

    This is a CLOSED setup based on Normal-type Pokémon. Which roles, in terms of actions and flavor, are in the game will not be revealed beforehand.

    "Day" phase lasts ten days.
    "Night" phase lasts two days.


    You must post at least once every two days (48 hours). If you do not, you will be prodded. If you do not post within a day (24 hours) of that, or if you receive 3 prods, you will be replaced.
    Please notify me if you will be away for an extended period of time, and for how long.

    Votes and unvotes must be in bold, in a format such as "vote Marquis". They will not be counted otherwise. Unvotes are appreciated but not necessary.
    A player is lynched when more than half the players are voting for them. Once a lynch has been reached, the game is in twilight. You may still post until I officially end the day.
    You can PM the moderator at any time to ask questions or for help. I won't be able to answer everything, though.


    PLAYERS

    There are 13 player slots available.
    Some will be for experienced players; most will be for new players.

    As this is a BEGINNER game, for signups preference will be given to players who have played 1 or less NOC games, and 2 or less OC games.

    While all you experienced players out there might not get a chance to play, I would greatly appreciate it if you guys could get the word out to your friends or people on the server. I'm really eager to introduce a lot more people to Forum Mafia here. Thanks!

    Beginner Mafia needs some experienced players as "tutors" or something.

    So having a few experienced helps stir the game a bit, as long as they don't act too condescending and manipulative.

    I'm personally happy with the signups at the moment. I'll be closing them off tomorrow, so for any new players who still want to join, hurry up and get in here (or for others, get your newbie friends to join too)!

    As the number of players grows smaller, the day phases will also be shorter.

    Anyway... that's a lot of players signing up. :x

    I think in order to allow most people to play, I'm going to ditch the 13 player setup and go for two games with 9 player setups.

    Each game will have 7 "new" slots and 2 "experienced" slots.

    If you don't make the games, don't worry, I'll keep you on a list for potential substitutes (trust me, we'll need you)!

    Also in case it wasn't obvious, signups are closed now because just so many people.

    As stated before, if you are not on this list, you are on the substitute list. Don't worry, you'll very likely be needed eventually!

    You should be receiving Role PMs soon; once you do, reply to them to confirm you received the message.

    Once the threads are up, game will begin with 7/9 confirmations for each thread.

    First post has been updated. Will very likely be needing those subs soon!

    My method for getting subs involves me PMing the first three on the sub list ("new" list if subbing a new player, "experienced" for other) and whoever responds first gets it. With only 7 irl days until a deadline, I can't afford to wait ~20 hours for the first one on the list to accept or decline, as has happened previously. If you're not on when I send the PM, don't worry- it'll likely be happening often.

    The Game of Mafia is one in which the players are divided into teams (or factions) and must decide as a group who to exile (or lynch) from the group until only one team remains. Typically, the two teams are a relatively small Mafia group, and the much larger Town group. Given that the Town starts as the vast majority of the players, this would be a one-sided game were it not for how the Town players are not aware of who the other Townies are. As a result, the Mafia can try to blend in with the Town and sway the majority vote onto Townies, hoping to turn the Town against itself until the Mafia controls the majority vote and therefore the game.

    At its heart, Mafia is a game pitting an uninformed majority against an informed minority. It (as well as variations on it) has been commercially rebranded numerous times, often with werewolf flavor, but the central idea of the game is the same.

    Additionally, this game has been over for a while now, and so this thread may be closed.
