RULES

All Site-wide Game Rules are in effect unless otherwise stated.

*

This is my color. Don't use my color.

* You are expected to be an active participant in this game. Players who have not posted for 2 days [48 hours] will be prodded for inactivity.
* After a prod is sent, players have 2 days [48 hours] to respond

IN-THREAD

in some way, or I will start searching for a replacement.
* If, at any time, a player has received 3 prods for inactivity, I may or may not issue another prod. I will start searching for a replacement.

* If you would like to request replacement or declare V/LA at any time, please PM me.
* If you have a personal problem with another player's activity/posting, please PM me.

* Days will be 2 weeks [14 days] in length. Deadline exceptions will only be made in extremely rare circumstances.
* Nights will be 2 days [48 hours] in length. Night deadline exceptions will only be made to accomodate Nighttime replacements.

* Votes will only be counted if they are in a format such as

Vote: Maestro

or VOTE: Maestro and must be on a separate line of text and outside of any spoiler tag.
* You must vote for the option to "No Lynch".
* If "No Lynch" has the most votes at deadline or receives a majority at any point, there will be "No Lynch".
* Other than a tied vote, this is the only way to achieve a "No Lynch" - lynching in this game is achieved through plurality.

* If you're dead, stay that way. No "Bah" posts, no treestumps. Dead.

AND FINALLY:

I am aware that I make mistakes. Please PM me about any I may make or address me in bold in-thread.
Do not hash out issues with me in-thread unless the entire playerlist would benefit.

SETUP

Micro 361:

Sid Meier's Civilization V UPick

Mod:

Maestro

Game Type:

Theme (UPick)

Status:

0/9

The cherished PC game comes to MafiaScum as a UPick! You'll send me the name of a Civilization Leader from this list and I'll send you back a role constructed to match their in-game personality, abilities, and traits! THEN YOU PLAY MAFIA. That simple!

...as such, this game is not 100% guaranteed to be perfectly balanced, but I will run my completed setup by one or two "experts" before forcing you to play through it. Don't grumble if you don't get a role you like - especially if you were fishing for a specific role to begin with. (

Fishing would be something akin to submitting "The Barbarians" in an attempt to guarantee Scum.

)

Which brings me to:

THINGS YOU CAN / CAN'T DO IN THIS GAME

The Barbarians have been disabled. Some players whined enough about playing peacefully that you did it to shut them up.

The following Civilizations / Leaders have been disabled due to game bugs (

you may not submit these as UPick choices

).

1. Ashurbanipal, King of Assyria
   
2. Boudica, Queen of the Iceni Celts
   
3. Harald "Bluetooth" Gormsson, King of Denmark and Norway
   
4. Gajah Mada, Lord of the Majapahit (Indonesian) Empire
   
5. Ahmad al-Mansur, Sultan of Morocco
   
6. Casimir III the Great, King of Poland
   
7. Ramkhamhaeng, King of Sukhothai (Siam)

In addition, several important mechanics are in place. This is Civilization, after all.

ALL

players have the following abilities:

EXPLORATION

Every Civilization started in this world new and unknown except to their own people. Since this time you have come to know each other to some degree, and you share basic knowledge about the world around you. Early technologies like Agriculture, Writing, and Theology permeate each culture and shape your Civilization's future in ways you cannot currently comprehend.

(

In Mafia terms: you know that there are

THREE FACTIONS

in this game. There is an uninformed majority, or "Town", there is an informed minority, or "Scum", and there may be a third party in this game attempting a Win Condition you'd never even thought of...

)

WORLD CONGRESS

Every so often, the Civilizations of the world unite to vote on resolutions that will achieve certain goals or promote certain ideas throughout international society. You have a voice in this World Congress, and you may vote on whomever or whatever you wish to change the world how you see fit.

(

In Mafia terms: as always, during the Day, you have the ability to vote for who you want to be lynched and the voice to speak about why. If you want "No Lynch", vote for that. Other issues may arise as the game progresses...

)

[Maestro]

ROLE PMs ARE ALL OUT NOW!
ZOMG GAIZ I HOPE YOU'RE AS EXCITED AS ME.
Confirm with your basic Role name (it's colored) and we can begin!

[Maestro]

This is a copy of most Civilizations' Victory Condition:

TEAM DOMINATION VICTORY

Though you don't know who your teammates are, if your team is the only team in possession of any of its original Capitals, you win the game as a team.

(

In Mafia terms, you win the game when no other Scum remain!

)

Day 1 begins now!

[Rob14]

Vote: Maestro

for that damn wait. You said we couldn't harass you by PM, but said nothing about the game thread. Rookie mistake!

[HighShroomish]

VOTE: DESPARADO

I was supposed to get the first vote

[Orion]

Hi G! <3

VOTE: aronis

ETL

[Desperado]

ETL!

Long time no see

[snscompt1]

Hi G! <3

VOTE: aronis

ETL

Oh look we meet again

Maybe this time we'll be on the same team?

[snscompt1]

I feel like this game will be interesting already. Here. Have some hamsters.

[Orion]

ETL!

Long time no see

HI DESP! I've been playing under secret alts and hydrae almost exclusively lately. I hope this is another "desperado town". The first mislynch you are on, I will crucify you. <3

Hi G! <3

VOTE: aronis

ETL

Oh look we meet again

Maybe this time we'll be on the same team?

HI SNS! I certainly hope so but just know that I've got my eye on you big time!

Also, Guyett is town! Not sure if there's anyone here who can actually vouch for my insane ability to read him, other than Anti, but you should trust me on this and be happy that you now basically have two obvtowns to PoE us all to victory.

ETL

[snscompt1]

Haha no worries. You'll probably think me scummy this game. I'm much more carefree as town. But just saying that makes my meta useless...hmmmm. Wut do?

Guyett is town? I'm down with that.

You and anti are town? Cool.

I'm town. Awesome.

6 people left with probably 2 scum and 1 third party. 50/50 chance? Wow. I'm liking this game already.

I will keep my vote then.

[Orion]

Ok. Who does that leave?

Desp
Rach
Aronis
Lemon
Rob
Shroomish

I kinda like Desp's entrance, so let's take him off the table. Don't like Rob's initial post but it's null at best. I'd like to hear from/talk to shroomish.

so for me, I think will lynch within {lemon, aronis, rach} today.

thoughts?

ETL

[Desperado]

HI DESP! I've been playing under secret alts and hydrae almost exclusively lately. I hope this is another "desperado town". The first mislynch you are on, I will crucify you. <3

<3

That trend has, in fact, continued--it's just fallen more towards the "get steamrolled by scum" side of the equation.

PEdit:

You know if there's one thing I'm always down for, it's a Rach lynch.

[Rob14]

I can confirm that Guyett is Hated, but not his alignment, because my role PM includes similar language to what he's given in his post.

Vote: sns

Serious vote. #17 was bad.

[Orion]

Have you played with him before, Rob? What about 17 was bad?

[snscompt1]

You know desp so I will go with you on that.

Guyett and I could probably tell if he's scum once he gets posting. Recently played in both his town and scum game.

Rach is basically MIA due to medical and internet issues. Probably going to get replaced.

Never played with lemon. He made us wait. So I like a lemon lynch.

pedit. Hm. Lemme double check my role. I don't think it said anything fishy.

pedit2: Echoing ETL, why was it bad?

And yes. We played together. For like 5 seconds. I was a Lyncher. He was the Lynchee. I got Dayvigged by Maru by page 2. Maru was scum. The end.

[snscompt1]

EBWOP: Guyett and I could probably tell if ARONIS is scum once he....blah blah

[Orion]

I've never played with lemon either.

sns get out of my ass. that wont work this time 'round

Rob, answer my questions.
