Newbie 966 - Game over!

It's finally summer. Time to relax in the sun, have some fun, and don't worry about anything! You rush to the door, yanking on the handle so you can finally taste glorious freedom, but it doesn't budge. You pull on it again, but it doesn't move.

"Come on now, you aren't really having trouble figuring out a door, are you? It's not even locked!"

Rules: (Blatantly stolen from several sources...)


Voting and Deadlines:

1. Voting must be bolded in the form Vote: Player, or else they probably will not be counted. Unvotes are not required to change your vote, but they are helpful.
1a. Fake votes are not allowed. We're playing Mafia, not trying to see who's most easily fooled.
2. I don't mind if you use nicknames/abbreviations when you vote someone. But if I have no idea who you're voting for, then the vote won't be counted.
3. Lynches require a majority of votes: (numberoflivingplayers/2) +1, rounded down
4. If there's no majority at deadline, there's no lynch. Deadlines are set at three weeks and extensions will only be given in the most extreme of circumstances.
5. When the hammered vote is cast, all players except for the lynched may talk freely.
6. When you are hammered, you may make a "bah" post. Nothing more.

Prods and Replacements:

1. Prods will be given if you do not post in 72 hours. I do not count weekends in that 72 hours (as a result, deadlines will never fall that close to a weekend).
2. You will be replaced if you either do not respond to a prod, or need to be prodded more than 5 times. You may request for a player to be prodded at any time, but the less you request, the happier your mod is.
3. If you're V/LA, make sure I know. If you are V/LA for more than a week, I'd suggest requesting replacement, but that's not required.

Misc.

1. Red, blue, and green are mod colors. Sorry for taking all the good ones...
2. You can talk about the game in the quicktopics given to you via PM. Otherwise, please refrain from talking about this game outside of the thread.
3. No editing, deleting, using invisible texts, etc...
4. Don't quote or talk about any mod-recieved PMs. Your flavor is for you to enjoy and you only until the end of the game.
5. I am human, I make mistakes. Show me them where you see them.
6. Questions > Modkills. If you're about to do something that you're unsure about, then tell me about it.

The F11 setup is the current game format used in Newbie games. To prevent the development of game-breaking strategies, these Newbie Games are Semi-Open, wherein the actual game setup is randomly chosen from one of four possible setups as detailed below:
  • 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 1 Sane Cop, 1 Sane Doctor, 5 Townies
  • 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 7 Townies
  • 2 Mafia Goons, 1 Sane Cop, 6 Townies
  • 2 Mafia Goons, 1 Sane Doctor, 6 Townies
If either of the first two setups are in play, and the situation occurs where the Goon is lynched first, the Roleblocker will still be able to submit both night kills and roleblocks (roleblocking is a function of the Roleblocker; night kills are a function of the scum team as a whole).



These are the Role PMs that have potentially been sent to the players:

Mafia-Aligned players:

Mod wrote:

name
(a Mafia Goon) and
name
(who is also a Mafia Goon) are part of the Intelligence Mafia. It is your job to take out all of your classmates so you might finally have some peace and not have to listen to their immature and horrible humor anymore…
  • During the day, try to blend in with the normal Townies, and attempt to get someone lynched.
  • During the NIGHT cycle ONLY, you may talk with your fellow Mafia (via this QuickTopic) and choose another player in the town to kill that night. One of you must
    send me a PM
    with your choice of who to kill.
  • You may communicate privately via QuickTopic with your fellow Mafia up until the game thread is opened (this is called Night 0). Once the game begins, all outside communication must cease until the night cycle.
  • You win when the number of Mafia equals or exceeds the number of remaining Town players, whether you survive to the end or not.

  • The Mafia Roleblocker has the ability to distract any player throughout the night, effectively negating their night ability, if they have one.
  • The Mafia should send the moderator a PM with your choice of player that you want to block (usually along with the kill). If they have a Night action, it will have no effect. You will not be informed as to whether the roleblock worked or not.
  • The Mafia may communicate privately via QuickTopic up until the game thread is opened (this is called Night 0). Once the game begins, all outside communication must cease until the night cycle.
  • You win when the number of Mafia equals or exceeds the number of remaining Town players, whether you survive to the end or not.

Town-Aligned players:

Mod wrote:

You’re just a student. You’re not exceptionally smart, or stupid. You’re just… you. And you don’t like school, which is why you want to leave.
  • You have no abilities at Night other than getting a good night's rest.
  • Although you do not have any special abilities, your voice and vote are powerful weapons in their own right. Use them to your best advantage!
  • At no time may you privately communicate with any other player.
  • You win when all the Mafia players are gone, whether you survive to the end or not.
Mod wrote:

You are the star student. You will use your intelligence to determine who these pompous fools are…
  • Each NIGHT, you may send the moderator a PM with your choice of player that you want to investigate.
  • The Moderator will inform you as to that person’s guilt or innocence.
  • At no time may you privately communicate with any other player.
  • In a Newbie game, you will always get a correct result (no sanity issues).
  • You win when all the Mafia players are gone, whether you survive to the end or not.
Mod wrote:

You are the most popular person in school. You’re constantly chatting with someone, and no one would dare bother you…
  • Each NIGHT, you may send the moderator a PM with your choice of player that you want to protect.
  • If someone attempts to kill that player during the Night, they will be spared.
  • You may not protect yourself.
  • At no time may you privately communicate with any other player.
  • In a Newbie game, your protection target will always live through the night (no quacks).
  • You win when all the Mafia players are gone, whether you survive to the end or not.

Roles have been sent out; confirmed players are in bold. Once 7 players have confirmed, the game will start.

Gusmahler, Fugitive, and IH have not confirmed, so they have been replaced by Faenval, Wumbo, and Snow_Bunny.

With 9 alive, it takes 5 to lynch. You may begin posting now.

Hey guys, I am your pretty IC for this game. Anything you need to ask, anything you need to understand, you can ask
the mod; I'm here to take advantage of the lack of experience of some players and find and nail scum without breaking a sweat
me. I'll lend you a hand to the best of my abilities.

Enjoy the game!
Taking a long break from mafia games.

In honor of Erika Furudo, my first scum win (Umineko Mafia).

Getting defensive? Clearly scummy!

Hello, Snow_Bunny. Hope us newbies are up to snuff next to you experienced people. Just curious, did your vote for Snarky have anything to do with the fact that he (she?) was the first person to vote for somebody that already had a vote on them?

Unvote


On second thought, I'm not really comfortable being on anything resembling a bandwagon on page 1. I don't want to read into things too much during RVS, but it strikes me as a little scummy that both of your votes have been on people that already had a vote on them, Snarky.

Why? You want to stay in RVS forever? Cause if was thinking to just vote for the one who had no vote on him, it would just be a fill in the blank game, and we wouldn't progress. And I don't like your unvote. A bandwagon is usually the thing that starts day 1, because we get information from one player to gather information, and then we can switch our attention to others. Your reluctance to start a bandwagon makes me think you want to hide in randomness a little longer. And correct me if I'm wrong, two votes on a player is not a HUGE bandwagon, so you have a little overreaction there.

unvote

vote: EarthIntruder

First non-random vote.
