Newbie Setup
(Stolen Directly from the Queue Post)
Matrix6 (as designed by Cogito Ergo Sum):

ABC
1Town JailkeeperVanilla TownieMafia Goon
2Mafia RoleblockerTown CopTown Doctor
3Town 1-shot
Bulletproof
Mafia GoonTown Tracker

Each Newbie Game will be given a setup that incorporates either one row or one column. The remaining six roles will be filled in by mafia goons and vanilla townies appropriately, to create a 2-mafia and 7-town setup. They are listed below.

Spoiler: Full Setups
Row 1:
Mafia Goon x 2, Town Jailkeeper, Vanilla Townie x 6
Row 2:
Mafia Roleblocker, Mafia Goon, Town Cop, Town Doctor, Vanilla Townie x 5
Row 3:
Mafia Goon x 2, Town 1-shot Bulletproof, Town Tracker, Vanilla Townie x 5
Column A:
Mafia Roleblocker, Mafia Goon, Town Jailkeeper, Town 1-shot Bulletproof, Vanilla Townie x 5
Column B:
Mafia Goon x 2, Town Cop, Vanilla Townie x 6
Column C:
Mafia Goon x 2, Town Doctor, Town Tracker, Vanilla Townie x 5


All Newbie games should use the Natural Action Resolution system for determining Night action effects. Roleblocker actions will take precedence over Jailkeeper actions should that apply. The 1-shot Bulletproof is a passive ability that cannot be roleblocked.

Rules

1. All site and mafia rules must be adhered to in this game. Some of the major ones are covered below.
2.
Do NOT discuss ongoing games in this thread. In addition, do NOT discuss this game outside this thread and any other places where I have specifically allowed (like the Mafia PT.)

3. The mod reserves orange in the game thread. In addition, in private threads,
Yellow will be used instead.
Do not attempt to impersonate me. In addition, be aware that a backup mod may reserve a different color; do not impersonate them
4.
Encryption of any kind is forbidden. Breadcrumbing is fine.

5.
Trust tells are forbidden and should not be used.

6. Do not use *provable* randomness.
7. Pre-game will last 72 hours, and the game thread alongside all PTs shall be open during that time. Days will have a deadline of 14 days and extensions will only be given in extreme circumstances. Night will last 48 hours.
Mafia do NOT have daytalk.

8. All players, in addition to confirming their role by pm, are expected to
post at least once during pre-game
. Failure to do so will result in a prod. Prods will be issued every 48 hours with no exceptions. Players will have 24 hours to respond to a prod.
Moderator discretion will be used to determine when a player should be replaced due to too many prods; there is no set magic number.

9. The IC position is a volunteer teaching position. They are expected to abide by the How to be a Good IC Article and have at least 5 games of experience on the site. Feel free to ask the IC about any
theory-related
questions.
10. To vote, use bolded tags or vote tags. They will look like this: (The latter is preferred)
Vote: Playernane
or VOTE: Playername. The code is shown below:

Code: Select all

[v]Playername[/v]

11. To unvote, use bolded tags or unvote tags. They will look like this:
Unvote: Playername
or UNVOTE: Playername.
You do not have to unvote to change votes.
Code follows:

Code: Select all

[uv]Playername[/uv]

12. You can vote for No Lynch just as you can a player: VOTE: No Lynch.
13. A lynch occurs when 50% of players (rounded down) + 1 vote for a player. The final vote is called the hammer, and once a hammer is placed, that player's fate is sealed. After a hammer, the game enters twilight ,and all living players (including the lynched player) may continue to post
until I either a) Lock the thread or b) Post the final VC.
If a wagon does not get enough votes before deadline, then the day will end in No Lynch.
14.
Confirm by pm'ing me your role name and what your ability(ies) do if you have any.

Hello everyone!

I'm the IC, I normally don't make a big IC post because I find that they are long and boring and most valuable things that you learn in mafia you learn from experience/looking into stuff yourself, but two universal recommendations.

1) Don't quickhammer. It's important to get a workable amount of information out before the day ends (you'll get a better feel for what "workable information" is once you play more, and it's very very important to let people claim here before they die. As a result, please claim intent to hammer before actually hammering.

2) Don't self-vote. We have 2-week long deadlines here, but, in reality, it only takes about 5 minutes for people to type the unvotes for a lynch to completely fall apart. There's a very high chance that we won't get everything right immediately, there's a very high chance that we end up pushing people who shouldn't be lynched, but that doesn't mean that there's no chance of you dying; there are spots to self-hammer as scum to cut off discussion, but never ever self-hammer or self-vote as town; keep fighting until the lynch is finalized and the thread is locked and it will help town quite a bit in the end.

But I have a very strong feeling that this is going to be one of those games where a good majority of the playerlist will be replaced before we can actually get moving, so don't be surprised if it's a bit of a slow start.

Hello.
Because no one has done RQS (is there one of those on this forum?) I will do that now.
1) Are you mafia or town?
2) Any experience?
3) Which side will win?
My answers:
1) SK
2) Around 3 games of mafia (on another forum)
3) Tie. Vig and Mafia will shoot each other last night. (This game will be secretly BM and Vig will show up out of nowhere.)
And just to bandwagon because no votes count, VOTE: thenewearth.

Do you think there is a correlation between newb-scum voting for their scum partners?
