  1. site rules:

  2. obey all site rules. you can read the site rules here.
  3. do not discuss the game in any capacity outside of this game thread unless your role gives you explicit permission to do so. if you are allowed to do so, I will provide you with a private topic where you can do so.
  4. do not harass other players in this game. while a certain level of confrontation and argumentation is typical in Mafia games, do not bring personal vendettas or outside influences into the game. additionally, do not harm or threaten to harm any person.

    game conduct:

  5. play to win the game. there is a chance that you will lose the game, but do your best to avoid that, and do not deliberately throw the game.
  6. do not use the color #8C0000.
  7. do not use any sort of cryptography, hidden text, or other similar methods to hide information in the game thread unless your role explicitly states that you may do so. if you are unsure of what is not allowed, PM me for clarification.
  8. do not quote information from private threads or from the moderator.

    joining the game, leaving the game, and activity:

  9. at the beginning of the game, you will receive a role PM. please confirm by telling me your alignment, any players whose alignment you know, and any abilities you have.
  10. if you will be away from the site for a set period of time, please post in the thread letting the other players know this and PM me, and update the "Vacation / Limited Access" info in the User Control Panel. I will be more lenient regarding inactivity if you are V/LA, but I may need to replace you if you will be gone for an extended period of time. if you are regularly V/LA at certain times (such as during the weekend), you only need to do this once.
  11. if you do not post for 48 hours or more, I will prod you (or send you a reminder to check in when possible if you have announced that you are V/LA); failure to respond to prods or needing to be prodded repeatedly throughout the game might result in a replacement.
  12. if you need to be replaced for any reason, you may message me with information to be passed on to the player who replaces you. this isn't mandatory, but if there's strategic advice you'd like to offer to whomever replaces you, you can do this.

    gameplay:

  13. living players may vote to lynch living players by writing
    vote: player
    or VOTE: player in the game thread. you may also vote for no lynch.
  14. living players may vote to give living players a Fantasy Gachapon item by writing
    Gachapon vote: player
    in the game thread.
  15. once the majority of living players are voting to lynch a player, that player will die. each player voting for that player will receive a particular amount of gold as described in their role PM.
  16. once the day ends, the player with the most Fantasy Gachapon votes (or, in case of a tie, one of the players tied for the most Fantasy Gachapon votes chosen at random) will receive an item from the Fantasy Gachapon. this item will be publicly revealed and will be immediately usable.
  17. if you have died, please do not post in the thread anymore. you are not officially considered dead until I announce your death in the game thread.
  18. each day has a two week deadline. if the deadline passes and no majority has been achieved, the day will end without a lynch. no player will receive gold, but a player will still receive an item from the Fantasy Gachapon.
  19. each night, players may spend gold they have received on items at the Fantasy Costco. items purchased can be used immediately or held onto for later.
  20. there are an unlimited number of each Fantasy Costco item available, and the items that are available will not change.
  21. this game is confirmed to only have two factions.
  22. players may use any number of abilities each night, but each ability may be used only once each night. for example, a player who has purchased two Extreme Teen Bibles cannot use both of them in the same night.
  23. a sample role PM is included at the bottom of this post.

    moderator responsibilities:

  24. I will not edit your posts unless your post breaks the rules in such a way that information needs to be removed from it or quotes a post that does that, or you ask me to edit it to fix a broken tag. I will provide a brief explanation of the edit and, in cases of fixing broken tags, will end the post with a spoiler containing the complete original text of the post.
  25. if you have a pronoun listed on your account, I will use that to refer to you. otherwise, I will default to referring to you as "they"/"them". if you do not have a pronoun listed on your account but wish for me to refer to you using some other pronoun, message me to let me know.
  26. I will do my best to keep the game running as smoothly as possible, but there will be times when I'm not around. I should be able to update the game at least once a day, and I will let you know if I believe that might change.
  27. I reserve the right to modify these rules at any time if necessary.

    the most important, most fundamental rules of all:

  28. remember the Midnight Amendments:
    1. be cool.
    2. c’mon.
    3. nice.
  29. thanks for vibing and keeping it tight. if you need me, I'm on my mobile.


sample role PM
Griffin McElroy, Dungeon Master


"it's just a matter of timing, that if I can grab the back of the train, then I don't have to do shit. but that would probably require an immense dexterity roll."
"yeah, and if you fail this... I kill you. listen, baby, risk and reward! if you do it, it'll be fucking rad! if you don't do it... you'll die, and you'll have to start a new character!"


alignment:
you are aligned with the town.
win condition:
you win when only members of your faction are left alive or nothing can prevent this.

The Adventure Zone: Balance
Dungeon Master:
you were the Dungeon Master for all 69 (nice) episodes of the
Balance
campaign of the popular actual play podcast
The Adventure Zone
. in addition to making a lot of people cry in real life with your expert storytelling, you also composed a bunch of great music for the show, are currently running the
Amnesty
campaign, and most recently saw the first volume of the graphic novel adaptation of the
Balance
arc
become a #1 New York Times bestseller.
sweet baby brother and Forbes 30 under 30 media luminary:
you're the youngest of the McElroy brothers, who in addition to playing tabletop games with their dad, also record an absurdly large number of other podcasts. some of the ones you're involved in include
My Brother, My Brother, and Me
,
Wonderful
, and a guest appearance in
Bubble
. that last one has Lisa Loeb in it! you've done a podcast with Lisa Loeb! wow!

lynch vote:
you can vote for another player to be lynched in the game thread. once a majority of votes cast are for the same person, that player will die and the day will end.
accrue gold:
if you are one of the players voting for the player who is lynched, you will receive 80 gold. you will receive an additional 90 gold if that player is part of the mafia faction.
Fantasy Gachapon vote:
you can vote for another player to receive an item from the Fantasy Gachapon in the game thread. once the day ends, the player with the most votes (or one of the players with the most votes chosen at random if two or more players are tied) will receive a random item from the Fantasy Gachapon.
spend gold:
each night, you may spend gold you have accrued on items available from the Fantasy Costco. these are outlined in the third post of the game thread.

item nameitem costitem description
Unlimited Pasta Pass
100 gold
can be used at any participating Olive Garden for free, unlimited pasta for the owner of the pass and free soft drinks for their guests.
Extreme Teen Bible
200 gold
"will you read the description of the Extreme Teen Bible?"
"yeah, I know."
"will you -- just read it out loud."
"he thought you wanted him to read it to himself! contemplate it!"


once, at night, you can target another player, and that player will be protected from death that night.
Stones of Farspeech
200 gold
"and each of you now has one of the Stones of Farspeech, like I’m just gonna go ahead and hand them out."
"so you guys can be in your different treehouses in different parts of town, just like, "hey, you up?"
"we'll come up with a special language that only we can understand later."
"hey, A/S/L?"


once, at night, you can target two players, and you will gain a private topic with those two players.
Pocket Spa
200 gold
"are you both looking at it?"
"I'm thinking about it seriously."
"is this some kind of like cursed bag that drives people insane?"
"and Magnus, you're looking at it?"
"yeah."
"okay, while they're looking at it, I buy the Pocket Spa and
dip
."


each night, you may choose to become ascetic, which will prevent all non-kill actions that would target you that night.
Scuttle Buddy
300 gold
"and I want a warranty. there's gotta be a warranty."
"uh, the Bible doesn't need a warranty, sir. it's the Good Book. it'll never stop being good."
"and to be fair, the Scuttle Buddy is designed to break. it says it right there on the tag."
"yeah, the Scuttle Buddy's gonna break, so I'll insure it for another 300 gold."
"which is the purchase price of the Scuttle Buddy."


twice, at night, you can activate the Scuttle Buddy, and you will be informed of which players targeted you that night.
Lens of Straight Creepin'
400 gold
"alright, I’m eyeballing the mystery bag and the Lens of Straight Creepin’, but I also want that, uh, the Tankard of Potent Drink."
"oh, sure, why don't you just take everything in the store without paying for any of it?"
"I'll give you 700 for those 3 items in total."
"I think you should have to roll to haggle, right?"
"yes! prepare to contest me, Garfield, the Deals Warlock, in a test of mercantile wits!"


once, at night, you can target another player, and you will learn who that player targeted that night.
Wand of Switcheroo
500 gold
"I need to change the Wand of Switcheroo. before you decide to buy it, it has three charges, that seems like way crazy powerful, and I didn’t think about that. I think just one is probably enough. so you go ahead and say it, but keep in mind."
"when pointed at another creature of similar size within a hundred feet and activated, the holder will switch places with the target if it is willing. if the target is unwilling, it must exceed a DC 17 constitution saving throw to remain in place. holds three charges, but apparently one now."
"yeah, three charges, you could just be fuckin' switcherooin' all day every day."
"just Nightcrawlering all over the place."


once, at night, you can target another player, and for the rest of the game, all actions that would target either you or your target will instead target the other player; additionally, if one of you would be lynched, instead the other one of you will be lynched.
