It's been weird in the wilds of the Tumblrgeti recently. The animals have noticed their numbers start to dwindle, and the strange markings in the ground tell of only one possible reason: POACHERS! As members of the Tumblrgeti Village, you all must come together to find out who among you is actually animal, and who among you is just a human in a stupid looking zebra costume. Who will be the next to fall in....Animal Mafia!? If you want to familiarize yourself with how the game works, go here: http://toast.topped-with-meat.com/connector/mafia.html Keep in mind, however, there will be no Inspector/Detective/Cop/Seer role in this game. There will be in other, larger games, though. RULES: 1. Votes look like this: !User, and canceled votes look like this: #User. 2. Players that do not vote twice within 48 hours, or three times period over the course of a game (Voting !NoLynch is -always- an option) are dropped from the game. 3. If there is a tie vote at the end of the day, there will be no lynch. Regardless of remaining vote tally, if !NoLynch is the majority vote holder, there will be no lynch. 4. Both the village -and- the poachers may elect a no-kill at any time. 5. PMs to other players discussing the game is NOT allowed. PMs to me asking questions is 100% fine. 6. Power players MUST send their target to me in the form of a PM before the declared closing of voting. Even if that PM says "No target." Failure to do this twice in 48 hours, or three times overall, will result in elimination from the game. 7. The mafia wins when there are even numbers of remaining mafia and village. The village wins when the mafia is eradicated, including the Godfather. 8. Try not to meta-game! 9. Ghost chatter in the thread (people eliminated from the game talking in the main game thread) is acceptable, so long as the text is italicized and labeled to indicate it's a ghost post. For example: oooooooooooooooooooo Well, this is getting interesting. oooooooooooooooooooo Just an example. Feel free to get creative! However, ghost posts may -not- be used for purposes of gameplay. Just amusement. Here is the distribution of power players: The village will have 2 power players, the trickster (who can block their target's action, but NOT their vote) and the guardian, who can select one player each night to protect from any potential blocking or mafia death. The mafia will have 2 power players as well, the Godfather (who can not be lynched until the rest of the mafia are gone), and the prankster, who can leave one message to a villager every night. The villager receives this message from me in the form of a PM. These power players will receive "cover" identities, so that they don't have to out themselves. In addition, there will be one plain mafia member with no powers, and the rest of y'all will be villagers. Who gets what role will be determined by randomizer. I'll cap sign ups at 15, and start the game at 11. Who wants in? Sign ups so far: 1. Lissiel (Villager - Crocodile) MAFIA KILL 2. Albedo 3. Budgie (Villager - Tiger) MAFIA KILL 4. Wiwaxia 5. Bel Capricorn 6. Lazarae 7. A Tiny Mushroom (Villager - Wolf) MAFIA KILL 8. (not) Literally A Bird 9. Wes Scripserat 10. Re Allyssa 11. IngloriousHeist
I will update the first post with the names of people signed up, so all of us can keep track of who's in and who's not.
Me, please! Also I think @(Not) Literally A Bird would also like to sign up, but I should wait for him to actually post here.
Er, clarification, what exactly do you mean by this? I'm worried it might be a part of my strategy, because I'm pretty sure that most of my friend group meta-games as a matter of course. xP
Well, when it comes to the prankster, don't look at the message and say "Oh, that's how X Person types. Obviously X Person is mafia!" Stuff like that. Also, going off-thread to look stuff up (other than rules) is kinda frowned upon.
I have updated the totals! If I don't get any more entrants, or even if I do, we'll start the game at 8:30 PM EDT! Watch your PM Inboxes for your assignments. Once everyone has their assignments, y'all can start!
