Guardians of the Fortress SetupFull set-up can be found here.
  • 3
    Mafia Goons
  • 6
    Vanilla Townies
Special Rules:
  • Daystart
  • Mafia have daytalk
  • On Day 1, there is no elimination. Instead, at any time a player may sign up to guard the
    Gate
    , the
    Wall
    , or the
    Keep
    . You may sign up for a location by voting for it (ie VOTE: Gate). Each player may only sign up to guard one location, and players may not change their chosen location. The locations are first come, first served. At most three players can be signed up at any one location. Day 1 ends when all players except one have signed up for a location. The last player will be forced to the last location without three people at it. Then, if all three mafia members are at the same location, the town wins immediately.
  • Night 1, the mafia team must choose two players and swap their locations such that exactly one Mafia Goon is at each location. Location assignments are public.
  • Day 2 is played as 3 concurrent minigames at each location, although all nine players may still share the game thread and submit their votes there. It uses the following rules:
  • At the
    Gate
    , one town player is chosen by the mafia to be confirmed as town, and town must eliminate the mafia member to win.
  • At the
    Wall
    , there are no special rules. Town must eliminate the mafia member to win.
  • At the
    Keep
    , town must vote on one player. If that player is town, town wins; otherwise, mafia wins.
  • The side that wins more minigames than the other side wins the entire game.
Day 2 Clarifications:
  • On D2, all players will post in the main game thread.
  • The minigames will NOT happen in sub-threads or PTs
  • Votes will be posted in the main thread.
  • Votes will NOT happen in sub-threads or PTs
  • Players may ONLY vote within their minigame.
  • With 3 players in each minigame, majority vote in each minigame will be 2.
  • Players MAY discuss other minigames to try to work together to win a side for their team
  • Players may NOT vote for players in minigames they are not participating in.
  • All minigames will share a deadline.
  • When a minigame is resolved, all 3 players in that minigame flip. They may no longer post in the main thread or mafia PT.


Events

  • Gate: catboi, Something_Smart, absinthe
  • Wall: unwnd, Lukewarm, Dunnstral
  • Keep: Briar, Anastasia, Infinity 324

RULES

Stolen from
Inspired by Plotinus' rules
  1. Site Rules
    - Follow all site rules.
  2. Mod colour
    – My mod colour is
    orange
    (#FF8000); don't use it.
  3. Behaviour
    - Be respectful. This is a heated game but toxicity will not be tolerated. Attack the play not the player. If your fellow players tell you to stop, you must stop. If you do not stop, I will tell you to stop. If you still do not stop, you will be force-replaced. Asking people to stop voting you or to stop scumhunting you entirely doesn't count for this rule and you may find yourself eliminated if you try it.
  4. Don't talk about ongoing games
    - You may not talk to each other about this game outside of threads I have created for this purpose. You may not talk about other ongoing games in this thread. You may explicitly discuss minigames you are not a part of on D2 (Gate, Wall, or Keep) in this thread.
  5. Text
    - Text should be legible (keep it 70+ please) and should not be hidden behind cryptography. Breadcrumbing is fine.
  6. Provable randomness
    - is against the rules. Saying that you rolled a dice is fine, using dice tags or random.org is not.
  7. Confirmation
    - You have about 48 hours to confirm your role and your alignment by PM. Game will start sooner if 7/9 players confirm. Posting in a private topic counts as confirmation.
  8. Days
    - Each game Day will last 10 days. Night will be 48 hours. Extensions may be granted if there are replacements.
  9. Activity
    - You must post at least once every 48 hours or I will Prod you. You then have 24 hours to post in the game thread or I will replace you. If you come back before I find a replacement, you can stay. The activity timers run at half-speed on weekends. Players can request me to prod somebody early. This will only count as an official prod if you don't post before you would have been due for a prod. If you haven't posted in the 24 hours before the thread is locked for night, you must reply to the night start PM or you will be replaced during the night. You will also be replaced if you are prodded 3 times total
  10. Vacation/Limited Access
    - If you need to be absent for longer than this, you should declare V/LA in bold in the thread like this:
    @Mod: I will be v/la until Thursday
    . While you are V/LA, you will be nudged once every 54 hours. Two nudges equals one prod. If you have not posted game advancing content in 5 days, regardless of V/LA status, you will be replaced.
  11. Prodging
    - A naked "prod dodge" does not reset the prod timer.
  12. Replacement
    - PM me if you wish to be replaced out. Angleshooting (speculating on alignment because of replacement) is not permitted.
  13. Quoting
    - You may not quote (or copy paste) any private information into the thread, including your role PM and any mod communication.
  14. Notes PT
    - Let me know if you want a private thread to store your thoughts and feedback for the other players. This thread will be made public immediately after the game. You may draft posts in your notes PT but you may not talk about your notes PT in public. You definitely may not use the notes PT to demonstrate that you've had a town mindset in private all along; just put your town mindset in public to begin with and keep your notes to yourself.
  15. Voting
    - Votes must be in bold in the format
    VOTE: Marashu
    or
    Vote: Marashu
    . Strong preference for using vote tags instead of bold tags. Unvotes are nice but not required. If I think it’s a vote, it’s a vote, no tricks. Type VOTE: Marashu to vote and UNVOTE: Marashu to unvote. Votes in spoiler tags will not be counted. On D1, you may assign yourself to a location by voting for it (ie VOTE: Gate).
  16. Elimination
    - There are no eliminations D1. Eliminations on D2 will be by majority within each location. When elimination happens, that location will resolve, the players at that location will be removed from the game, and the day will continue.
  17. Night
    - Night lasts at least 48 hours.
  18. Action submissions
    - You may submit actions via PM or PT. Actions must be received by the deadline. You can change your mind as many times as you like before the deadline.
  19. Claiming Scum
    - by yourself is fine. Claiming scum with another player is against the rules.
  20. Rule Changes
    - I may add or modify additional rules at my discretion. Everyone will be notified via PM if this happens.
  21. Play to win
    - this particular game, not some future one, and keep it fun!

Phyrste.
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

On Day 1, there is no elimination. Instead, at any time a player may sign up to guard the Gate, the Wall, or the Keep. You may sign up for a location by voting for it (ie VOTE: Gate). Each player may only sign up to guard one location, and players may not change their chosen location. The locations are first come,
Alright
Voting - Votes must be in bold in the format VOTE: Marashu or Vote: Marashu. Strong preference for using vote tags instead of bold tags. Unvotes are nice but not required.

So you'll count votes so we can RVS @Mod?

I'm pretty confident in my ability to townread town and to be transparent as town.

What are your strengths and weaknesses that drive your preferences?
Amid the pressure of great events, a general principle gives no help.

I'm not sure who you are but I agree with your own assumption and felt that you have a strong capability to be town!

I am also now 10-15% more excited to play this game for some reason

To answer your question though I think I'm quite good at articulating my thoughts and being understood, however I have a disdain for leadership roles and enjoy being an observer. I want to take in my surroundings and then come to my own conclusions, while building off other perspectives

Because D1 has no elimination, votes outside of location sign-ups will not be counted. You may use vote tags in your posts, but anything other than a vote for the Gate, the Wall, or the Keep will not be counted in an official vote count.

I think with the Wall I'll feel more loose? I wanted to avoid Keep specifically because I'd feel some allotted pressure There has been a few recent towngames where some people get this perception of me that I personally disagree with and don't like upholding. Keep is the most traditional and that's what I work best with

I can provide my thoughts on the setup if people want, though I was thinking it might be better to let some other people weigh in first, because I suspect that people will probably be taking my opinions pretty seriously :P

Also I'm ngl I was a bit excited to play with absinthe because she was someone I remember being around way back in the day (though I don't think I ever played any games with her).
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

I assume this means that the mafia team can move at least one town player from one mini-game to another.

Since 3 mafia in the same mini-game at the end of day 1 results in a mafia loss, the distributions are either 2-1-0 or 1-1-1 at the end of day 1.

Lots of potential wifom in the movements.
