Infiltration and secrecy rule the game. The mafia in this province all know it. Countless cities they’ve torn down from within; countless villages they’ve burned without anyone knowing their true identities. Within the walls of this place, their newest target, they’re sure another victory is easily at hand. Their first night here, they take one step towards that victory. There’s a commotion in the town square the next morning, and they join the throng, worried faces masking the glee they feel within. The fruit of their labor lies dead on the ground.

, was killed pregame.
But there’s something about this town they don’t know about. There’s something sinister, a threat already here. The full moon rises that very night, and a blood-curdling cry awakens the innocent and the guilty alike. All rush to the source of the noise. The mafia exchange glances. This murder was not their doing.
numberQ’s twin,
Mod Aligned
, was killed pregame.
They attend the town meeting, and there they learn of the werewolves’ existence. The werewolves also surely know of theirs, from the first night’s murder. The town alderman proclaims that, though one death is doubtlessly the work of werewolves, the one the night before occurred without the full moon’s gaze. With a stony face, he deduces that more than one foul faction haunts this town.
He calls upon the local monastery to perform their sacred duty of routing lycanthropes. And, to investigate the first death, he forms another group of citizens. These monks and these masons are tasked with determining the identities of the murderers, but - as always - infiltration and secrecy rule the game. To prevent infiltration, they must uphold secrecy, and thus they are forbidden from revealing their identities to the rest of the townsfolk.
And if a goon or a wolf has already slipped into these societies unnoticed? May God help us all.

Keep flaming to a minimum. Mafia can get to be a heated game, but let's be civil about this.
Unless otherwise specified in your role PM or by me, you may not communicate outside of this thread while the game is running. If someone contacts you outside of the game, please let me know immediately.
Do not quote any private communication to which you have access. This includes game-related PMs, instant messages, and QuickTopics. Quoting time stamps from any private communication is also forbidden. Paraphrasing is okay.
If it is not visible to the naked eye, do not post it. This includes, but is not limited to: invisible text, tiny text, encrypted text, and text hidden within tags. Spoiler text, however, is allowed, as long as it is used within reason. For cases of breadcrumbing where you aren't sure, please PM me beforehand.
If you have the ability to edit your posts, don't use it in my game.
Purple
is reserved for the moderator. All other formatting is fair game with the provision that you do not impersonate me, and that it doesn't break rule 5.
Activity
Prods will be issued to players if they have not posted within a 48-hour period; they will have 24 hours to respond in the game thread before I search for a replacement. I will also send reminders on request as long as at least 24 hours have passed since the player's last post.
Players who have been prodded 3 times are subject to replacement without further notice. Player-requested reminders do not count toward this total.
If you anticipate being away for at least 48 hours, please PM me or post a V/LA notice in the thread with the expected date of your return.
Days and Nights
Days have a maximum duration of 2 weeks (14 days). Deadline extensions will be granted only in extreme circumstances.
Nights have a fixed duration of 3 days. Even if all night actions are received before then, the next day will not start until the deadline is up.
Lynches occur through simple majority (50% of living players + 1, rounded down). If no majority is reached at deadline, a no lynch will occur.
Votes and unvotes must be bolded (e.g.,
Vote: numberQ
and
Unvote
). Unvotes are not necessary when switching votes. Use of the vote tags (e.g., VOTE: numberQ) is optional.
No lynch may be voted for the same way normal lynches are (e.g., VOTE: No lynch). A no lynch will also occur through simple majority.
All players, including the lynched player, are allowed to discuss in twilight phase until I post the death scene. Dead players may make one "Bah!" post that contains no game-related content.
Moderator Actions
Flavor is for entertainment purposes only and has no significance in the game.
For minor questions or vote count errors, please bold your concern in the thread. For all other issues, use PM.
Pretending to break the rules or exploiting loopholes in the rules will be considered breaking the rules.
Any situation not covered above will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
I reserve the right to add, modify, or remove rules as necessary. I will notify you of all changes in the thread.
Please PM me if you need clarification on anything in the rules.
Biggest rule: Mafia is just a game, so play to win, but more importantly, play to have fun!
To head off any potential slips, yes I sent out Quick Topic links instead of using the private forum. Guess I'm showing my age, since last time I participated in a game, we didn't have it nice and easy like you young whippersnappers, with our own place for private threads!
Since it's nice to have everything all on one site, the QTs will be ignored, and there are now PTs in the private forum for the factions that get PTs. If you're a vanilla townie and not a mason or a monk, feel free to ignore this!
Anyone want to bet which scum group is getting hung first? My bet's on the Werewolves. They are just dogs, after all. Clearly incapable of thought and reasoning.
In fact... If anybody here starts showing dog-like qualities, we should Lynch them immediately.
Check my wiki for my meta.
"Yeah, when I see an intelligent paragraph, I'll know it's Assemble" -Jay
"I thought Assembler was quite good. I was surprised he was the NK because he's often in the lynch pool, but tunnelling scum will do that to your life expectancy!" -ffery
"assemble GOAT mod" -Mulch
"Anyone who plays with assemble knows silence is NAI" -Maki

On hiatus indefinitely. This was a nice distraction when I was working through my faith transition out of Mormonism, but I need to move on to bigger and better things now. Get to know a meat boy
Uhh... I commented on it too, Mister Beef. Three others (one being Assemble himself) agreed.
But hey, whether he's the fun police, or I fucked up his joke instead, is up for the audience to decide! A prompt will appear, so be sure to check under your seats and vote

You've reached that age, Listy. 24, 25...Your muscles give up, they wave a little white flag of surrender and without any warning at all, you're suddenly a fat bastard...
