Rules:

In its simplest form, the game of Mafia consists of two competing sides: the Mafia and the Town/Civilians. The Mafia's goal is to kill the innocents, while the Town's goal is to kill the Mafia.

At the beginning of the game, the Moderator will secretly send everyone their role via PM. The Mafia will know each other, while (in the basic game) everyone else will only know their own role. You should have received your role via PM.

---

The game has two phases: Day and Night

Day Phase

During Day, the thread is open for posting. All players will discuss in the Game thread whom to execute next. Generally, Civilians players will vote for someone they think is Mafia (the Mafia will vote so that they seem to be doing this as well, and might even vote for each other to confuse the Town);

Whoever has the most votes at the deadline is executed. In the case of a tie, we will enter a 15 minute overtime period. During overtime, you may only change your vote to someone within the tie. The first vote change will be deciding. If the vote remains tied after OT, the moderator will flip a coin and eliminate 1 of the people within the tie. The role of the executed player is revealed by the Moderator, and it becomes Night.

Night

During the Night, the thread is locked and no one can talk publicly. NO POSTING IN THE THREAD DURING NIGHT. The Mafia, however, can speak to each other via pm to plot strategy and decide who to murder before the next Day begins.

During Night, the mafia will pm me the name of a player to be murdered. This player will be killed and removed from the game.

During Night, the cop will pm me the name of a player to be investigated. I will respond to the cop via pm and reveal the role of that player.

During night, the bodyguard will pm me the name of a player to be protected.

---

The game alternates between Day and Night until all the Mafia are eliminated, or the Mafia have killed everyone else.

MISC Rules/Notes

- Feel free to ask questions regarding the mechanics of the game, and I will gladly answer. If you are a regular civilian, please only ask questions within the Public Game thread

- Do not publicly mention anything about Mafia PMs. Don't tell me in shout that you sent me a pm about mafia. That includes the initial role assignment pm.

- No dead posting. If you are executed or murdered, don't post in the thread.

- No post editing.

- We're somewhat operating on the honors system given that we're doing this on Proboards. Just don't be a jerk.

- Don't SHOUT - Keep Mafia talk off of shout. All game-related discussion should take place within this thread. No Mafia talk of any kind will be tolerated in shout.

- No Liking or Disliking posts. This applies when you are alive or dead. If you are alive and want to agree with a post, quote it and say so. If you are dead, you are not allowed to interact with the game.

- Everyone got a PM about their role. Mafia, Cop, Bodyguard, and Civs. DO NOT SHARE THE CONTENTS OF YOUR PM. YOU WILL BE ADMIN KILLED.

- NO TEXTING AMONGST YOURSELVES. ALIVE OR DEAD DOESN'T MATTER. Only the mafia can communicate with each other via text.

- Have fun and be respectful!

A few notes on Voting:

Majority Vote - If a majority of the remaining players are voting for the same person, a 30 minute timer is started. If at the end of the 30 minutes, a majority are still voting for that person, then that player will immediately be executed, and we won't until the deadline time.

No Execution- Players may vote for a "No Execution". If "No Execution" wins the vote, no one will be executed during the Day Phase, and we will progress to the Night Phase.

How to Vote - Please indicate your vote by bolding a player's name. For example:

I vote for RW!

Missed Votes - A player may miss 1 vote without repercussions. If a player misses 2 votes, they are auto-killed and removed from the game. If you miss a vote during a Day that ends early due to a Majority Vote, then you are not penalized.

Vote Changes - You are allowed to change your vote as you desire. Simply bold your change.

Tied Votes - If a vote is tied, we will enter a 15 minute overtime phase. You can only vote for someone it the tie in OT. Overtime is sudden death. The first vote change will be deciding.

The times I listed are when the listed day ENDS. For example, Day 1 will end at 6pm CT on Monday.

After a day ends, we will briefly enter a night phase. There will be 30 minutes for the Mafia, Cop, and Bodyguard to pm me their night moves. During this night phase no one can post in the Game Thread. For example, Night 1 will approximately last from 6-6:30pm on Monday. I will try to lock the thread during night phase. But please be cognizant of when a day ends. Night posting is not allowed and may result in being admin killed.

The Night Phase ends when I post who the Mafia killed. The next day then begins.

[ANK1990]

The game has now begun. You should have received your role via pm. PM me if you have not.

Day 1 starts now. The Day 1 deadline is set for today at 6pm CT.

[Delap]

buon giorno tutti!

is this where we make wild accusations with no knowledge?

[Heebs]

Can anyone think of a double-blind way to randomly select a player to kill Day 1?

I think 20s "choose the weakest" player method works, but I'm suspicious that a mafia member will start the process with a known civilian.

Also, eric are you mafia?

[FectaDEEZ]

Excited to accuse Timpig of being Mafia again.

[gbgalla24]

Number generator seems like a sound strategy for round one.

[FectaDEEZ]

Reasons I dont suck at this game, I was right about Timpig being mafia with no insider information. Reasons I do suck, I was dead certain JHB was mafia last game and that was clearly not the case.

Another reason I dont suck, I dont overthink every little thing leading groups down rabbit holes for no reason.

[gbgalla24]

Random.org told me to vote for Fecta round 1.

Random.org sounds like Mafia.

Billy Knight

His job prevents him from being up to date on the thread and then he comes in and carpet bombs the thread with bad information and accusations of everyone.

He's a liability if he's civ, he gets us closer to a win if he's mafia.

You really love to hate Billy Knight....but that is also my vote.

I vote Billy Knight.

Sorry SPL

[SPL]

I am going to wait to cast my vote until someone gives me a reason to doubt them by opening their mouth with useless shit, yes, I am looking at you Billy King

[Heebs]

I'm going to wait on someone to think of a double-blind method of selecting a first-round casualty. But I have to admit that killing BK after our game 2 back and forth sounds pleasantly vindictive.

You still sour from her beating a male in tennis?

[FectaDEEZ]

Reasons to not vote for me.

1. I am not mafia
2. My goal is to post pad so I will be very active

If we all vote for someone else so each player has a single vote, the killed player would truly be random

if someone moves off their vote in OT, they will be committing suicide the next round

I'm in let's do it

[SPL]

In all honesty if we are going to vote people out blindly on the first day, I am going to adopt the 20s method of attacking the least active with my early votes as they won't tell us anything later in the game. So that will probably be Fecta, Taco or Timpig

[Souper Troopers]

Why does everyone call him billy knight?
