This game uses the F11 setup. One of the following setups was selected at random:
-1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 1 Sane Cop, 1 Doctor, 5 Townies.
-1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 7 Townies.
-2 Mafia Goons, 1 Sane Cop, 6 Townies.
-2 Mafia Goons, 1 Doctor, 6 Townies.

Each has a 25% chance of being the true setup.

Artem

wins the game for the

Mafia

team!!

Rules n' Roles blatantly stolen (and slightly modified) from Mr Flay

Mafia:

You are a

Mafia Roleblocker

, along with your partner _________ (who is simply a Goon). Your goal is to eliminate the pro-town players so that only your side remains; you win if this happens. During the Day, try to blend in with the rest of the players, and get someone lynched.

You may talk with your partner at Night, and send me a choice via PM of who you would like to kill/roleblock (your team can do both so long as you live).

Note: You may talk with your partner privately during confirmations to plan strategy, but no night actions will take place until Night One.

AND

You are a

Mafia Goon

, along with your partner _________ (who is a pro-Mafia Roleblocker). Your goal is to eliminate the pro-town players so that only your side remains; you win if this happens. During the Day, try to blend in with the rest of the players, and get someone lynched.

You may talk with your partner at Night, and send me a choice via PM of who you would like to kill (if your partner also lives, they can send in a separate choice to roleblock someone).

Note: You may talk with your partner privately during confirmations to plan strategy, but no night actions will take place until Night One.

OR

You are a

Mafia Goon

, along with your partner _________. Your goal is to eliminate the pro-town players so that only your side remain; you win if this happens. During the Day, try to blend in with the rest of the players, and get someone lynched (if that someone is not your partner or yourself, that will make things much easier). You may talk with your partner when it is not Day, and send me a choice via PM of who you wish to kill.

Note: You may talk with your partner privately during confirmations to plan strategy, but no kills will happen until Night One.

Town:

You are the

Doctor

, and you can protect people from harm. Each Night, you may send me a choice via PM of who to protect; if they come under attack by the Mafia, they will live. You win if the scum are eliminated, so choose wisely at Night, and try to lynch correctly during the Day.

Note: Doctors are 100% effective in Newbie Games (the person you protect will never die on the night they are protected), unless you are roleblocked. You may not protect yourself.

You are the

Cop

, and you can tell good from bad. Each Night, you may send a player's name to me; I will let you know if your investigation shows that they are Mafia or Town. You win if the scum are eliminated, so choose wisely at Night, and lynch well during the Day.

Note: Cops always get a correct result in Newbie Games (no sanity issues), unless you are roleblocked. You cannot investigate yourself.

You are a

Townie

, and you've got no special powers at Night. No investigations, no protection, no gun to shoot people. Your only powers are the ability to post, vote, and think. Help lynch Mafia during the Day, and you will win the game, along with the rest of the Town.

Even though many games start with Night, Newbie Games begin with Day once everyone has confirmed that they understand their role. Scum are allowed to talk by PM in the pre-game stage, but no other "night actions" may be taken.

Order of Night Actions

Keep in mind that the actions of some roles can interfere with the actions of others. Don't expect to be 100% satisfied.
Night choices will be processed in the following order:

• Roleblocker
  
• Doctor
  
• Cop
  
• Mafia Kill

---

Rules:

• Votes must be in bold for them to count, like this:
  Vote: Mr. Stoofer
  . Unvotes should also be bolded (
  Unvote: Mr Flay
  ) so that I can spot them easier, but it's not required.
• A simple majority of votes (1/2 the number of living players plus one, rounded down) will achieve a lynch and end the Day. Unvoting after that point will not save someone's life. If a deadline is imposed, the required number of votes may be lowered.
• Nights will last up to 72 hours, but may be shorter if all night choices are in before the deadline.
• Dead men tell no tales. If you get killed, stop talking until the game is over.
• Do not discuss this game with other players outside of this thread, unless your role PM specifically stated you could do so (as scum, and then only at night).
• Do not directly quote any PMs you receive; I have already posted the roles above, but this holds true for any future messages you receive from me as well.
• If you see something you don't understand,
  ASK!
  Newbie games are here for people to learn and understand; either I or one of the other players will respond to your question. If it has to do with your role, feel free to PM me directly.
• Treat this game as a commitment; if you're going to be gone for longer than 48 hours (not counting weekends),
  let us know
  . I will replace severely inactive players, but your fellow players may choose to lynch you themselves first.
• Any action which would be illegal to
  actually do
  is also illegal to
  fake
  (for example, posting a
  made-up
  PM that shows a Cop result of guilty/innocent).
  
• Have fun!

No sense in holding the game up for one person. It's go time.

P.S

I'm one of the IC's for this game so if you have any questions regarding game mechanics, rules, etc, post them in the thread and I'll do my best to answer them. Hope everyone has a fun game!

[Fenchurch]

Woo! Get posting people - I want to start putting names to.. avatars!

Incidentally, if anyone doesn't have an avatar already, can I request that you get one? Having read through a few newbie games on the site already, I find that they really help in keeping track of who is who.

And plus, it's a little picture you can choose, it might tell us something about the real you. For instance thinktank, I take it you either like xkcd, or.. very small maps :)

[Drifter]

hey everyone, glad to finally start a game. to the above- i had an avatar, but my dog ate it.

Yea I do and that map is a map of the internet. I tried reformatting it because of the avatar restrictions and thats pretty much the best that I got. So I'm currently looking for a better XKCD comic to put up there. They're hilarious

[Fenchurch]

I think the tiny map is fine, it makes it more like,

subliminal

xkcd.

And

vote: Drifter

Is my avvie good enough?

Vote: thinktank

Cool! I just figured out that if you hit control + b you get

. Hit it a second time and you get it with /.

[Sion]

Vote: No Lynch

There's no reason yet.

[Drifter]

[b]vote thinktank[/b]

for thinking too much

[Fenchurch]

Sion, I don't think any of us are expecting a lynch at this stage in the game, but It is quite frequent on the forums to start a game with "random" voting, to get the ball rolling and such. So it's not really necessary to vote no lynch, and I assume you do want a lynch eventually on Day 1 - statistically speaking, even a random lynch is better for the town than no lynch. (Obviously, choosing the

right

lynch is the way to go, but we won't know that for sure until after we've made our choice).

That said, I don't mean to take your vote too seriously, having just described everyone else's as "random".

Is my avvie good enough?

Absolutely! (I'm assuming the question was directed at me, since I'm the one being so militant about avatars )


Also, Drifter, it looks like somehow your bold tags didn't work properly. Did you press the button to disable BBCode in the post?

[Drifter]

hmm maybe i will check next time i vote, there is no edit button i guess for obvious reasons

[Fenchurch]

Yeah, I really want to correct that capital "I" that I accidently put in "It", but it's there for good now...

The disable BBCode checkbox is at the bottom of each post (although not if it's a "Quick Reply"), so even if you clicked it by accident, I think it should reset for the next time. Not sure if that is what caused your un-boldness, though.

[lifeofpie]

Unvote, Vote: Sion

For an awesome avvie. (although I did like Nausicaa and the valley of the wind)

[RandomGem]

Hi guys, I'm here, but have (somewhat) limited access until tomorrow.

Vote: ShadowLurker

for having the longest name, making voting for him/her the hardest and most annoying.

[Sion]

Unvote, Vote:owsianko

I want to know what the name means

[chapter 5]

Hello everyone! I can't wait to play.

No random vote coming from me, thanks.

[lifeofpie]

Unvote, Vote: chapter 5

for refusing to vote.

FOS: shadowlurker

for lurking.

FOS: Sion

for an awesome avvie.

FOS: RandomGem

for saying Shadowlurker has the longest name but only having three letters less than lurker's name.

FOS: Drifter

because he has a matrix avvie and if he has a movie avatar, it should be The Dark Knight.

FOS: Fenchurch

for acting like s/he knows everything.

FOS: owsianko

for having a Family Guy avatar.

FOS: thinktank

for being the senior player here.

And I'm lazy, so

FOS: everyone else

because I can.

[lifeofpie]

Unvote, Vote: Shadowlurker

post, man!

[owsianko]

Unvote: ShadowLurker

That's my last name. You pronounce it as O-shank-o.
I know it's weird, it's Polish.

[owsianko]

vote: lifeofpie

Because it seems he dislikes Family Guy, or maybe he may think I'm scum for liking Family Guy.

[Drifter]

what does FOS mean?
