Welcome to Stockport: A Mafia Story: Episode 1. The village of Stockport and all of its inhabitants are fictional. We have already met the village mayor, Gabriel Jones. The rest of the current Stockport villagers can be found here. Whatever happens to Gabriel Jones and the rest of the villagers depends on you!
That's right. Together we will start a fictional series of games, where the actions and the life of the Stockport villagers is in the hands of the mafia players who sign up for the games. The game works exactly as any other mafia game, with a few exceptions:
- Every villager who is a part of the game has 2 abilities: a positive ability which will help their faction win the game, but also a negative ability which is something you'll have to overcome in order to win the game for your faction.
- Every villager also has a secret second win condition. It's prohibited to discuss your secondary win condition at all. You can only win the game by completing your second win condition, while also
having your faction win the game. So do whatever it takes to achieve this! If you mention your 2nd win condition in any way you will automatically lose the game, or even be modkilled. Play to your win conditions as much as you can! Don't put your faction in a worse position just because you want to achieve your second win condition. Also, don't put your faction in a better position by throwing your secondary win condition. Both of these actions will result in you losing the game.
- I'm sure you've heard the sentence "Life isn't fair" a bunch of times before. Well that's exactly what's going on in these games too. Balance isn't guaranteed. Bastard roles may or may not be in the game. Some games will be hard for the town to win, others will be hard for the mafia to win. Like I said, life isn't fair. Deal with it.
- Fakeclaims will be provided when needed. Not all villagers will play a part in each episode in order to achieve this. This happens to make sure the game cannot be broken by flavor
- People are still removed from the game in a similar fashion as other mafia games: players can get lynched and nightkilled. However, these terms don't mean your character will die, necessarily. What really happens when your character is lynched, nightkilled or survives the game, has been determined before the start of the game
- Please understand that this is in some ways a test game, in order to see if the storyline building works out as well as I hope it will. The secondary win conditions have been added in order to add an extra dimension to the game. I hope they'll add more fun to the game, but if they're a hinderance, they'll be removed for future games.
- I will try and provide flavor as much as possible, but because the identity of the players is a secret, it will probably be limited to flips mostly. I'll figure it out as the game progresses.
- I'd like to encourage players and spectators to add an extra dimension to the game, by creating their own family. Please provide the following information in order to do this:
Code: Select all
[img][/img]
[b][u]Name:[/u][/b]
[b][u]Creator:[/u][/b]
[b][u]Age:[/u][/b]
[b][u]Relatives:[/u][/b]
[b][u]Job:[/u][/b]
[b][u]Positive Notes:[/u][/b]
[b][u]Negative Notes:[/u][/b]
Additionally, you can create an avatar here. I'm going to limit the entries to 1 family of maximum 5 members for each player. If your family has been wiped out entirely, you'll be allowed to create a new family.
- If the first game proves to be a success, there will be more(and possibly bigger) episodes.
VERY IMPORTANT: DO NOT TALK ABOUT ONGOING GAMES IN THIS THREAD.
