This game is using the standard Newbie Game setup, Matrix6. One row or one column will be randomly chosen from the table below and the remaining six roles will be filled in by Mafia Goons and Vanilla Townies as appropriate to create a total of 2 Mafia-aligned players and 7 Town-aligned players.
A
B
C
1
Town Jailkeeper
Vanilla Townie
Mafia Goon
2
Mafia Roleblocker
Town Cop
Town Doctor
3
Town 1-Shot Bulletproof
Mafia Goon
Town Tracker
Please note:
The Mafia must specify who is performing what Night action when the actions are submitted.
In applicable situations, a Roleblocker's action will resolve before a Jailkeeper's action.
In applicable situations, a Mafia Roleblocker has the option of submitting both roleblocks and kills, even when the Mafia Goon is still alive.

(Adapted from various game mods: no sense re-inventing the wheel)
Adhere to the site-wide rules as well as the following rules.
If you are ever unsure if something is against the rules, please ask beforehand.
General Gameplay Rules
You may not quote Moderator-supplied information (either real or fabricated) of any kind. Paraphrasing (for role claims, etc.) is acceptable.
The only places outside of this thread you are permitted to talk about this game are in Mod-provided private topics and private messages to the Mod. Note that the mafia team may privately communicate with one another during only the Night phases.
Once your death scene has been posted by the Mod you may no longer post. The dead in this game are silent.
Do not make posts that look like mod communication.
Burnt Orange
is reserved for the Mod.
Do not use encrypted or hard-to-see text (including "invisible" text, text below the 50% text size option, or text hidden via BBCode. Spoiler tags are fine.
Rule violations will be dealt with according to their severity, up to and including a Modkill.
If you have a question, you may PM the mod, or you can use a bolded @Mod followed by your question. If doing the latter, please put it starting on its own line so that I do not overlook it.
The Scum PT will be unlocked and a link provided at the end of the game. Scum should post in their PT accordingly.
Game Timeline & Activity Rules
Game Days will last at most two weeks. An extension may be granted if a replacement is required within the last 72 hours of a game day.
Game Nights will last 48 hours.
If a player doesn't post in-game after a period of 48 hours, other players may request a prod of that player.
If a player is prodded, that player has 24 hours to make an in-game post or risks replacement.
A player who has been prodded 3 times is subject to replacement without further notice.
If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period, please post a V/LA notice in the thread in advance.
Lynching & Voting Rules
Please submit votes as:
Vote: PlayerName
or VOTE: PlayerName. Votes will NOT be counted if they are not bold! Obvious abbreviations or nicknames will be counted so long as they are unambiguous.
You may Copy and Paste from the Code box if you need:
[b]Vote: Playername[/b] OR [vote]Playername[/vote] -- [unvote]Playername[/unvote] and [b]Unvote: Playername[/b] and [b]Unvote[/b] are all acceptable ways to unvote.
Unvotes are
not mandatory
before changing votes.
Vote Counts will be posted at least every 24 hours, and more often if necessary. You may request a vote count at any time by sending a PM to the mod.
A simple majority of all living members must agree on one person for a lynch to occur.
Once you have reached a simple majority no further unvoting will change someone’s fate.
You may
Vote: No Lynch
- a simple majority of these vote types are required to send the game to Night phase without a lynch. No Lynch will also occur if no one has a simple majority of votes at deadline.
Etiquette Guidelines
If you have an issue/problem with the game, please PM the Mod privately. Do not post issues/complaints in the game thread.
The Mod may make mistakes - please point out any mistakes gently. Mistakes will be corrected where possible, but sometimes mistakes are made that cannot be reversed. These will stand as final to be commiserated over after the game.
Be considerate of each other, don’t get personal, and enjoy the game.
Hello everyone!
It's nice to see some familiar names, and some new friends as well. I'm not the IC for this game, but I did just complete my first IC game and I enjoyed it, so please feel free to ask me any questions!
I'll let Nachomamma8 give a more complete picture, but for those who are new, the game usually begins with the "Random Vote Stage" (RVS), in which we cast votes for arbitrary reasons.
I'm going to vote for Raskolnikov, whom I've never seen draw Town.
In post 11, kagesong wrote:LOL, that ended RVS prematurely . Hey folks, second game of Mafia EVER, super excited. If I'm miscommunicating or not being clear, PLEASE tell me.
Wait, is RVS over? I thought RVS ending would be, like, when there felt like there were some solid leads to follow and pursue and thus far it's mostly just joking around. (Or at least I thought so lmao)
It's my first forum mafia game but I've played epicmafia styled stuff before.
In post 15, Charloux wrote:It's good to lighten up the mood and i just couldn't resist making fun of Rask.
Guess i'll play along: VOTE: James3; I REALLY dislike number 3
What made you change your mind on doing the RVS so quickly?
It would be a problem (for town) if nothing is done. I am against RVS because a 2nd page lynch can happen if there are enough idiots, and i don't see any so if my vote can help, then why not?

LOL No, sweetheart, RVS is not REALLY over. I was referencing post 10 where Charloux gave a "logical" lynch target as humor.
If it makes you feel better Charloux, my normal username is James2, but that was taken here.
I play at the ToS forums, but I decided to give MS a shot. I consider myself experienced at FM, but I figured I should join a newbie game first to get a sense of the MS meta.
