Rules & Information

General

1. Follow the Boilerplate Mafiascum Game Rules unless contradicted below.
2. If you insist on using bold tags for votes, make sure they have a colon in it or the votecounter won't pick them up.
3. Don't lie about serious things in your real life to justify in-game behavior.
4.

i

is my tag. You may use it occasionally.
5. Don't post when dead.
6. NAR is used to resolve night actions.

Game-Specific

- Every player has a post restriction
- If a player publicly figures out another player's post restriction, the exposed player dies
- Everyone can send one private guess a Day, which also kills the player if correct. If you PM me a guess for post-game bragging rights, make sure to explicitly mention that.
- Posts breaking post restrictions are marked as such
- For every fifth mistake by a particular player I will post a possible correction while leaving the mistake out in the open. This might make the restriction very obvious.
- Post restrictions do not apply to quote blocks and votes if they're used in the usual fashion
- Deaths by post restriction advance the game to the next phase as if a player was lynched
- The game is Nightless. The Mafia have daytalk. Days last two weeks.
- The first member of the Mafia to die may perform a vengekill
- Players only flip as town or as scum
- Town role PMs start with "You are aligned to the Town."

Play advice for town: I put some care into making sure that regular scumhunting and getting everyone to contribute is the optimal base strategy for town. Strategies like forcing players to say certain things will hurt town more than scum. Having said that, you should definitely try to murder folks by calling out their PRs even if you have a null or a very weak town read on them. When you initiate a kill, it is more likely to hit scum than regular lynches, since regular lynches might also hit you.

If you figure out the gist of a post restriction, it's likely enough. However, if you're just a little bit too far off, you won't get any feedback at all. Don't write off an idea entirely just because it didn't kill anyone.

[Bicephalous Bob]

As you may have noticed, Tenshii breached his post restriction five times. Because of migitating circumstances, I will give him one mistake respite.

[Bicephalous Bob]

Not Fury, a

town-aligned

player, has been lynched on Day 1.

[Bicephalous Bob]

A post restriction has been guessed! ZZZX, a

Mafia-aligned

player, has died on Day 1.

[Bicephalous Bob]

Oh wait I'm scum, wrong game thread.

This post breaks its restriction. Because of a special mechanic, this post is to be corrected immediately.

This post would be valid:

Oh wait I'm scum, wrong game thread.

JasonWazza, you are the best player and the greatest person here. Please show these knuckleheads how it's done after I'm dead.

[Bicephalous Bob]

Hanging from the gallows, ZZZX draws his weapon.

[Bicephalous Bob]

Mod, are posts with one single naked vote exempt from restrictions? Also, are posts with multiple naked votes but no writing exempt from restrictions? You said that posts and quotes are exempt if they are used in the usual way so I am clarifying.

This is a grey area. I will say that anyone who does not actively try to circumvent their post restriction is extremely unlikely to get into trouble.

Okay.... so let me get this straight.... Aristophanes couldn't of guessed the restriction because a hammer was placed before he did his interruption post?

@Mod can restrictions be guessed during the twilight phase?

Yes.

Do all guesses have to be made public?[/b]

No, as per:

- Everyone can send one private guess a Day, which also kills the player if correct. If you PM me a guess for post-game bragging rights, make sure to explicitly mention that.

Not Chara, a

town-aligned

player, has been lynched. ZZZX and Tenshii, the Mafia, win!

You are aligned to the Town. You must crumb as many power roles as you can, at least one in every three posts. All crumbs on a particular Day must be for different roles. The more power roles you crumb, the higher the chance you will receive one of the crumbed power roles for a Day at some point. You die if any of your crumbs is detected by another player. For every post you make, post the post number and crumbed role here: viewtopic.php?f=90&t=71554&p=9132288#p9132288

If a crumb seems like a stretch, I'll ask someone unaware of this game to judge if they would buy it (the crumb being a crumb, not you having the role) in a flavorless game.

You are aligned to the Town. You can't use the word "the" in your posts, or functionally equivalent words such as "teh" or "da" when used in "boys in da hood". You die if anyone notices this. If you make it through the first Day, you might get a special surprise!

You are aligned to the Town. In every post, include a different line or sentence from a play, novel, fictional TV series, song, movie, or poem. As long as this line or sentence is quoted verbatim, everything is fair game.

After every post you make, post the work you quoted and the post number here: viewtopic.php?f=90&t=71556

You are aligned to the Town. Every Day, you must compliment a different player. The compliment can be subtle, but it must ring sincere. Every time a compliment is questioned for sincerity by the moderator or another player, you must make an extra compliment within the current phase or the next. You die if anyone figures out your PR involves compliments or forced positivity. If you do not make a compliment on a Day, your last post will be corrected right away. No other posts will be marked as incorrect.

You are aligned to the Town. You start with no post restriction. From Day 2 onwards, every post you make must follow a different post restriction mentioned by another player on the previous Day. If you have made a post for every post restriction mentioned, you are free to post whatever you want until the next Day. You die if anyone figures out you have to follow previously mentioned post restrictions.

Please create a non-googleable online document of your choosing, share it with me, and from Day 2 onwards, whenever you make a post, put the post number next to the post restriction you followed.

You are aligned to the Town. In every post, you must use a word that has not been used before in the game. For the purposes of this post restriction, inflections are considered the same words, and misspellings are considered non-words.

You are aligned to the Town. In all of your posts except for your first one, the last alphanumeric character must be the same as the first alphanumeric character of your previous post.

ZZZX:

Every Day, you receive a list of roles. At the end of the Day, one of those roles will be given to a town player for a Day. You may exclude roles from being picked by crumbing them in your posts. If you crumb all roles on the list, the player will not be given any role. You die if any of your crumbs is detected. For every role you crumb, post the post number and crumbed role in this PT. Today's list is:

Cop
Vig
Tracker
Watcher
Voyeur
Follower
Jack-of-all-trades
Desperado
Faith Healer
CPR Doctor
Gladiator
Dreaming God
Rolecop
Vengeful
Bulletproof

You die if any player notes that you cannot use forum- or Mafia-related words, or something similar. The simpler observation that you cannot use a particular word will not get you killed.

As you may have inferred from the role PMs, from Day 2 on ZZZX would have received Gamma's crumbs from the previous Day, after which Gamma would get back a random role that wasn't crumbed. GIF would have received the role from the Day 1 list if he hadn't been killed and ZZZX didn't crumb all of the roles on the list.

This was the post that killed ZZZX:

I think me and ZZZX may have similar restrictions

PTs and personal thoughts will be released later this day.

[Bicephalous Bob]

Fuck you transcend
How about you cool your fucking hammers
Next game you quickhammer I policy lynch you
I was about to get the ability to revive a town you fuckass

Do not post when dead, even if you think the game is over. For all you knew, Chara could have been lynchproof or vengeful.

[Bicephalous Bob]

my favourite thing about this game was that you should have been PR-killed by Tenshii, but you were lynched by him instead

[Bicephalous Bob]

no, but scum did discuss your post in the Mafia PT

Tenshii's conclusion was that you may be a traitor

In post 180, Gamma Emerald wrote:

I dont think this should have killed me unless he used it as a private guess but whatever it was, I had a good run :P

It was definitely a weird edge case, but I think these rules only allow for one interpretation:

- If a player publicly figures out another player's post restriction, the exposed player dies
- If you figure out the gist of a post restriction, it's likely enough.

Gamma clearly publicly figured out the gist of your post restriction.

[Bicephalous Bob]

Big thanks to Who for reviewing this game, ZZZX for the only piece of flavour in this game, to the replacements for replacing in, and to the people who offered to replace in but got beaten to the punch for offering to replace in even if they got beaten to the punch.

I realised that I could have essentially made up various common phrases as Feluda quotes, providing the Mod hasn't read Feluda. My quotes were actually real, but I don't think anyone would be able to get close to guessing my restriction based on my posts.

Mod, can you please post the Mod PT as well as any private guesses?

The mod PT is pretty boring:

#1
Tenshii - scum, no words in glossary
Aristophanes - new words
BTD6_maker - quotes
Eddie Cane - town crumber
JasonWazza - last character is first character previous post
WhemeStar - mentioned PRs
Not Fury - compliment
GuyInFreezer - no articles
ZZZX - scum crumber

#2
ZZZX crumbed everything but Voyeur as of post 180

#3
oh well, I'll also allow their post-mortem voyeur crumb since I'm allowing Gamma to kill them in twilight

#4
already rolled for gamma's role on day 4 because I was confused: they'll be a reviver if they make it through the day

There's some more discussion floating around, particularly on Gamma's and ZZZX's roles, but that's distributed over PMs and chat messages between me and Who.

-----

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think I received any private guesses.

-----

I didn't precommit to any particular quote. I probably wouldn't use "Luke, I am your father", but it wouldn't have been anything generic or obscure either.

[Bicephalous Bob]

damn

I think I might run this type of game myself with new post restrictions.

By the way, you should read Feluda. Satyajit Ray is a great author.

you have my blessing

and I might give Feluda a shot someday, I found the quotes you posted very inspiring

[Bicephalous Bob]

you also said gamma was scum
