Game Rules:

This game is governed by This generic ruleset

Rules specific to this game:

This game uses the Newbie Matrix6 setup, which is a semi-open setup.

1) Deadlines will be 2 weeks for days, and 48 hours for nights.
2) I will issue a "Prod" to any player that has not posted for

2

days. If you do not post within

24

hours of this PM, I will seek a replacement. Anyone requiring

3

or more prods during the course of the game will be replaced.
3) Please use the VOTE: PlayerName and UNVOTE: PlayerName tags when placing a vote or unvote.

Code: Select all

[vote]PlayerName[/vote]
[unvote]PlayerName[/unvote]

4) Once you are dead, by lynch or nightkill, you may no longer post in the game thread. Dead players will be linked to a Graveyard PT where you can chat with me and the other dead players.

This rule applies to after you are confirmed dead by mod action.
If lynched you may continue to post during "twilight" along with the other living players.
"Twilight" phase is defined as the time between the hammer vote and the end of day post containing final VC and the flip.

5) My mod color is

Blue

. You may use any other color that is readable. Please note I use the MafBlack forum skin, so your text needs to be readable against a grey background as well as white. (unmodified text is fine, it appears white. Just make sure any colors you use will be visible)

Newbie Setup

Matrix6 (as designed by Cogito Ergo Sum):

	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

Each Newbie Game will be given a setup that incorporates either one row or one column. The remaining six roles will be filled in by mafia goons and vanilla townies appropriately, to create a 2-mafia and 7-town setup. For example Row 1 (1 jailkeeper, 1 vanilla townie, 1 mafia goon) would add an additional 5 vanilla townies and 1 mafia goon, for a total setup of 1 jailkeeper, 6 vanilla townies, and 2 mafia goons.

*Roleblocker will take precedence over jailkeeper when resolving night actions should that apply.

VOTE: Raskolnikov

[wgeurts]

Oi, nobody votes me.
[V}Raskolnikov[/v]
As OMGUS

and your impossible to remember user name

[wgeurts]

VOTE: Raskolnikov

[SethYazura]

You are all full of boredom, accusing clearly innocent people without further ado.
Don't be fooled by wgeurts, he's a captivating charmer that in reality, he's ISIS in disguise, adults who still believe in religion because they didn't grow up.
VOTE: wgeurts

[wgeurts]

If only I were an adult though, it's also been said that I have the charm of a ragdoll before (though that was before my English improved).

Try again.

[Hoppic]

VOTE: Alpacaalpaca

Alpacas are cute, and their name is poetic especially when you repeat it like a rhythm.

[wgeurts]

Right, moving on

[Murph]

Mornin y'all

[Simoyd]

Hey, the forum is back! Yay!!! \0/

Raskolnikov reminds me of Rakanishu who always kills me with his damn chain-lightning.

[wgeurts]

I fear that half the newbies are going to have to be replaced after the crash :/

Pr-edit:
You literally posted that just before I made this, lol.

[wgeurts]

Also all over you not placing a random vote down any reason for doing so?

So far I've really got no information besides possibly Seth's post which seemed a bit forced, however some people just post like that. Also, I await the accusations of me throwing shade at Seth because he voted me

[KaladinStormblessed]

The forum's alive again! Don't got much except tentative suspicion at seth, for strangeness his post and that it's a second vote while you guys seem to be the kind that random notes at first to gather info.

[wgeurts]

Kaladin, you just have become my main suspect right there.

You stating that you're a little suspicious of Seth because his post seemed strange seems a little opportunistic because of the fact I stated exactly that in my post, the one above yours directly. Three questions for you:

-Why is Seth's vote not a random vote like others according to you?
-Why aren't you voting Seth?
-Do you have prior experience of Mafia? If so could you link a game or two?

[KaladinStormblessed]

It's not as random cause it's the second vote on a person, with no real reason, but follow up votes are more suspicious than the first vote. Also you have a reason, joking revenge vote, he doesn't. I don't like to bounce my vote around so I wait to vote. Yes, I have done mafia before, a few games on gamefaqs, unsure if I'll be able to find links. Almost didn't post it for fear it'd be suspicious but didn't want to be silent.

[Murph]

@ Kal and geurts

Why do either of you have suspicions about a single D1 poster ?

Seems more like Seth was acknowledging/poking an acquaintance with a throw-away D1 vote.

If you think it's more nefarious, please share why.

[KaladinStormblessed]

Honestly it doesn't seem that suspicious but is the only thing going on, and only meant to note that it different than others and a thing I'm noting in my mental list of things about this game, and as i said didn't want to be silent. If it is a poke at an acquaintance, a noobs game with newcomers to the forum and or game isn't the best place for that.

[wgeurts]

@ Kal and geurts

If you noticed I didn't vote, as there are plenty of other explanation for Seth's actions and I stated as such. Instead what I'm more attempting to do is get content building up through posting my thoughts (even if they are pretty much nonsense or as sturdy as a castle made out of sand) and having others react to them, which in turn leads to more reactions by which point the ball is rolling and we can finally play.

On the other hand though seth's post

does

feel quite forced, do you not feel so?

[wgeurts]

It's not as random cause it's the second vote on a person, with no real reason, but follow up votes are more suspicious than the first vote. Also you have a reason, joking revenge vote, he doesn't. I don't like to bounce my vote around so I wait to vote. Yes, I have done mafia before, a few games on gamefaqs, unsure if I'll be able to find links. Almost didn't post it for fear it'd be suspicious but didn't want to be silent.

Random votes often last a few pages, it being the second vote really doesn't say much at all. If seth is town he doesn't exactly have a lot of information to start building upon with the few posts before him. Do you follow what I'm saying? His post may read as forced but it may just be his style of posting, with him making an odd joke. It happens enough in games to be a viable possibility.

Newer players don't like voting a lot I've seen so fair enough there, why are you trying to not appear suspicious though? What would you reason for doing that be as town? I can't quite follow your motivation there and am leaning to saying that's likely scum behaviour.

[wgeurts]

Also newbie game's are the best place to find new acquaintances, as you can then brag you knew them before they became the new rising star.

[Simoyd]

I didn't read SethYazura's first post as forced. What part makes you think it's forced, wgeurts?
