Newbie Mini Mafia XXXIV![[image loading]](http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n99/chuiu/TLmafia_new.png)
Dandel Ion will be hosting this game, with iamperfection (filter), the Almost-Perfect, and thrawn2112 (filter), the Best Smurf In The Lands, performing the parts of the cohosts. Please PM us with any questions you have about the game, and make sure to send all of us any night actions you may have.
Mafia Coach is Toadesstern, the dastardly Shyster. Town Coaches are Promethelax, the Beard of Babylon, and debears, the Mad Caser.

Introduction: Mafia is an educated guessing game of epic proportions. The objective of the game is to lynch or kill all mafia members before they outnumber the rest of the town. It's much like a game of poker because mafia members are also part of the town during the day and may manipulate the vote to their liking. If the mafia at any time outnumber or equal the townspeople, they win. The town's goal is to lynch all the members of the mafia.
The game is typically very active, so the thread will get big quickly. However, it is essential to read the thread to play the game. If you do not have the time or patience to read the whole thread, do not play. I will not compensate for ignorance.
Rules: Cheating: Standard rules apply. If you're not familiar with them, please read them below. + Show Spoiler +Cheating includes (but is not limited to): 1. Posting after death. You may have one polite goodbye post, but it may not contain any potentially game-changing information. 2. Ruining the game by doing something like hand out your mafia's member list to the town. 3. Logging on to someone else's account to get their role or looking over someone's shoulder to get their role. 4. Comparing role PM times to determine roles. 5. Posting screenshots of your inbox. 6. Posting or sharing any PM you receive from a host. 7. Getting yourself modkilled to help your team. Your non-majority-decided death may not be used as a bargaining chip. 8. Signing up more than once using smurf accounts. 9. Betting items outside of the game in exchange for in-game benefits. 10. Sharing accounts with other players unless cleared by the host in advance. Otherwise, only you may post on your account. 11. Breadcrumbing the specific phrasing of your role PM. Do not compare the phrasing in your role PM to prove your alignment. You can claim the abilities you have, but you can't use the specific phrasing of your role PM. 12. Posting a false role PM phrased as if you received it from the host. You can still fake roleclaim, but you cannot make it look like you are posting a PM you received from the host. Cheating is not tolerated here. The punishment will be severe.
Posting: Mod Font: This is mod font. It is reserved for moderators. Please do not use it.
Question Font: This is question font. Use it to ask the moderators questions about the rules. Please do us a favor and read the rules before you ask anything.
Activity: You must post in this thread once per day/night cycle and vote every day while you are alive. If you fail to do so, you will be modkilled.
Smurfs:
On April 26 2011 13:22 mikeymoo wrote: Smurfs must PM the host because TL doesn't allow multiple accounts otherwise. If the host is unaware of smurfs, you (and/or your smurf) can be banned for having multiple accounts.
Spam: Spam is not tolerated, nor is any off-topic material. Do not discuss Proleague here. Do not talk about Starcraft II here. Play Mafia here. This also means you should condense your posts when possible. 15 one-liners in 30 minutes is unacceptable.
Editing: Editing is not allowed for any reason. Editing will result in a warning. After that, you will be replaced. This is the one part of the site where it is okay to be double posting, even triple-posting. While I ask for everybody to post as concisely as possible, post again if you have to edit anything.
Inappropriate posts: If you want to post something insulting or inappropriate and know the TL mods would have a problem with it elsewhere, don't post it here. If you do, a host will warn you or modkill you and request that you be banned from future games. The hosts have the final say on what is inappropriate. If you do not like how someone is talking to you, please PM a host, Flamewheel, or Mig before involving the TL staff. If you are unsatisfied with how the situation is resolved, then you can appeal to the TL staff normally.
Reporting posts: The report button is a nice feature for regular TL, but not for this forum. We prefer to deal with things in house if possible to avoid confusion among the TL staff. If you have a problem with how someone is posting, talk to the host, co-host, Flamewheel, or Mig before using your report button. Please do not use your report button for anything other than inappropriate posts which you feel are not being dealt with adequately.
Ban discussions: Please wait until this game is over to talk about replacements/modkills and bans resulting from this game.
Play to win. This means you play your best to help your team win while you are alive and in the game. However, this does not mean that you should try to win by being a jerk to the other players so they all want to quit playing.
This also means that you cannot leave the game without a good reason without a ban. These situations will be dealt with on a case by case basis. PM your host if you need to leave the game.
You have been warned.
Out of thread communication: It is common for mafia (and town circles if PMs are allowed) to use a medium outside of TL such as QuickTopics or IRC to communicate during the game. Please be mindful that other players may be more tech savvy than you and they may attempt impersonate members of your team or attempt to infiltrate your chat. You use these media at your own risk.
Voting rules: 1. Voting is done in this thread. Please keep votes here, and only vote here. Do not PM us your vote. 2. Please vote in the following format: ##Vote Qatol. Votes not done in the correct fashion will not be counted. I will update vote counts whenever I get the chance. To change your vote, post ##unvote, then vote normally. 3. No conditional voting. 4. You may vote for yourself. You may not vote for anyone dead or outside the game. 5. This game uses Plurality Lynch. The person with the most votes gets lynched. For somebody else to get lynched, he needs to overtake the current lynch-ee in votes. 6. Voting is mandatory. You may NOT abstain. 7. You may vote for a no-lynch by posting ##vote: no lynch in the thread.
Signups: This game is open to anyone who has played three or less games of Mafia on TL. Signups will remain open until all 9 spots have been filled.
Game-specific rules: Modkills: This game follows the [url=http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=114622]TL Mafia Ban List. If you are modkilled, your punishment will go beyond being eliminated from this game. Please refer to it for questions about your punishment. If you want to use this game to sit out your ban, please PM [url=http://www.teamliquid.net/mytlnet/index.php?view=new&to=Flamewheel]Flamewheel[/url] or post in the Ban List.
Replacements This game uses replacements. Replacements will be made in the game until Day Three. If a player is modkilled during the designated time, then they will be replaced by a player on the replacement list. Replacements are greatly preferred over modkills, so please PM one of the hosts if you are willing to replace in and don't ask for the obs QT.
Clues: There are (no) clues.
PMs PMs are (not) allowed in this game.
Time Cycle: This game will follow a 48 hour day/24 hour night cycle. In case I am not able to post around deadline, any votes after the 48 hour mark will not count and the game will be put on halt until the night post is up. Currently the deadline is 2000 EDT[local], but that is subject to change. Actions/votes will be accepted up to and including the posted time, but not after.
Credits: Thanks to anyone who has ever hosted a game. This list grows ever longer. Thanks to everyone who helped balance this game.
If you have not read all the rules, go back and do so. I will not compensate for ignorance!Last edit: 2013-01-11 09:05:40 |

The Setup
This is a semi-open setup. There are four possible setups, and which setup is chosen will be RNG'd. The chosen setup is never revealed, but it should be deductible as the game goes on. This setup is based on the F11 Setup, with a Jailkeeper replacing the Medic.
Role PMs:
Vanilla Townie + Show Spoiler +You're a Vanilla Townie! You would like to be an Übermensch one day, but you just don't quite cut it. Doesn't hurt to try, though. Your vote is your only weapon, but it's a darned good one, so don't worry about it. You win when all Nihilists have been eradicated.
Cop + Show Spoiler + You're a Cop! As a great Ontologist, you know all the intricacies of any philisophy out there. Each night, you can discuss philosophy with a person of your choosing. During this discourse, you will find out if they think Substantialistic or Nihilistic. You win when all Nihilists have been eradicated.
Jailkeeper + Show Spoiler +You're a Jailkeeper! You are the biggest Existentialist in town. You have a shrine of Sartre in your bedroom and masturbate to Simone de Beauvoir at least daily. Each night, you may utterly bore somebody with the details of the existentialism you love so much (even though nobody else does). They will not be able to do anything else since you are so demanding, but other people will also stay clear of you, as to not have to bear listening to you. As such, your target will be roleblocked, but also protected from taking any damage that night. You win when all Nihilists have been eradicated.
Goon + Show Spoiler +You're a Goon! You are but a simple Nihilist. You don't really get all the intricacies of the philosophical side of things, but you're pretty damn good on the practical side. You may erase a meaningless life during the night, but you well know it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. You win when you outnumber all Substantialistic schools of thinking or nothing can prevent this fact. Not that winning matters. Your Partner In Nothing is [X], and a QT has been provided here: [X], though you can of course communicate otherwise too.
Roleblocker + Show Spoiler +You are a Roleblocker! You take this Nihilism shit to the next level. You're so damn good at it, you can reduce the actions of a person of your choosing to nothing each night, just with the power of your mind. You may block the same person on consecutive nights. You may also erase a meaningless life during the night instead of the Goon, but you well know it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. You win when you outnumber all Substantialistic schools of thinking or nothing can prevent this fact. Not that winning matters. Your Partner In Nothing is [X], and a QT has been provided here: [X], though you can of course communicate otherwise too.
Possible Setup:
The setup used for this game will be randomly chosen from the following four setups:
- Goon + Roleblocker, Jailkeeper + Cop, five Townies
- 2 Goons, Cop, six Townies
- 2 Goons, Jailkeeper, six Townies
- Goon + Roleblocker, seven Townies
Q&A
- Town wins when there are no more scum.
- Scum wins when they outnumber town or nothing can prevent this from happening.
- Scum KP is fixed at 1.
- This game uses plurality lynch - The one with the most votes gets lynched. In case of a tie, the one that got there first wins the race!
- Targets who are roleblocked are always notified if they have been roleblocked.
- Role PMs may vary slightly from the ones shown here.
- Jailkeepers may not target themselves.
- There are no 3rd Party Planar Dragons in this game. Probably.
Notes
Roleblockers roleblocking each other will roleblock both of them. Roleblocker A blocking Roleblocker B who tries to roleblock Randomguy C will result in only B being roleblocked.
One person on the mafia team may carry out the kill each night. The mafia can choose not to kill. The mafia can kill each other. If the mafia member chosen to kill on a particular night is roleblocked, no kill will occur. The roleblocker can roleblock somebody and perform the nightkill in the same night, should you choose to do so.
There are no hit notifications in this game.
All successful roleblocks will result in the target being notified.
If there are any questions about the setup, they may either be PMed to me or posted in the thread in bold green text
shamelessly stole this from EchelonTee. thanks mate!
Newbie-specific stuff
- It's already in the rules, but remember, no editing. If you feel you must correct your post, please make a second post to clarify your statements. You may put EBWOP ("Edit by way of post," a handy acronym invented by semioldguy) at the beginning of your post to indicate that you are clearing up a point you made. If your EBWOP post is several posts after your original, please quote your original post in your EBWOP post for the sake of clarity.
- Another thing in the rules: Don't talk about this game outside of the thread. Keep everything right here.
- Only sign up if you know you will have the time available to properly play the game. It is essential that players remain active in a newbie game, so only /in if you are able to play to your fullest.
- If there is any sort of issue, you are unsure about some mechanic, or you are just wondering if your devilish scheme is even allowed, feel free to PM me, or ask in-thread with green text. Don't feel shy; these games are meant to be a place to learn and be open.
- Behave as gentlemen (or ladies). Things get heated here, but personal attacks will not be acceptable, and will be dealt with accordingly. Remember, this is a game; have fun and happy scumhunting!
- glhf!

i guess i could be your co host if you want.
That would be a very unholy union though. Could be the first step to ending the world. |

Tommy the Fireman has a special place in my heart.
But I just (kinda) copied the F11 because I can. I also was bored yesterday and already rolled the setup, and I'm too lazy to reroll.
tldr, no |
