charter
, replacing
Vamparific


Dead:
None

Status: Game Over, see post 357 for what happened.

Rules:
0. This is a game. Have fun. Don’t let things get personal.
1. The game will start with a Day Start once all confirms are in.
2. During Day, you may vote for one player at a time. Votes must be bold or they will not be counted. Unvoting is optional.
3. Whenever a player has more than half of the people alive voting for him/her, that player will be lynched, and his or her role will be revealed, and Night will begin, during which the thread will be locked, and because of this, will not count towards prods that are kept track of on the front page (I will send PMs to everyone when Night ends, but these will not count towards the front page).
4. The Newbie Queue rules now require a non-retractable 3 week deadline per day, thus this game will have one. At deadline, a majority of people who have posted in thread within the last 48 hours will be enough for a lynch. I will add a section to all votecounts, seperate from the main one of the votes of people who have posted within the last 48 hours.
5. Do not talk outside the thread unless your role allows it.
6. If you’re dead, you get one ‘bah’ post with no game-related content.
7. If you have any question, complaint, or comment, PM me.
8. Confirm in thread.
9. Feel free to correct me if I make a mistake, but be nice about it.
10. I will try my best to get a vote count near or at the top of every page or at least every few days.
11. If you do not post for 72 hours or if a player requests I do so, I will prod you by PM, and then if you still do not post within 48 hours, you will be replaced if you failed to pick it up or prodded again if you did pick it up, and if you do not post within 48 hours of the second prod, you will be replaced. Absences that are posted in thread, noted in your sig and/or posted in VLA are exceptions to this rule, though if I feel it is necessary, I might temporarily replace you.
12. If I have to search for replacements for half or more of the people alive, the game will be called.
13. Red is the offical mod color, no one but me may post in it, and if someone other than me edits it, the red will be edited out and they will be warned.
14. The setup and roles were 100% randomized.
15. If I have to prod someone a fifth time in a game day, they will be replaced instead unless one of the prods was when they were V/LA, which do not count. This is reset at the end of every game day and for anyone who replaces in.
16. The number of prods will be kept track of in the front post. Number of stars by a person's name equals the number of times they have been prodded. If the next time they would be prodded they will be replaced instead, their name will be in mech.
17. If you are modkilled for any reason that is not a mod mistake, you will be turned into a Neutral Survivor, and therefore lose. The town will be told what your role before being turned into a neutral survivor.
18. Quoting Role PM's without paraphrasing will be punished by modkill. If you want to quote any other PM from the mod ask first, as quoting some other PM's from me could get you modkilled. If you are not sure whether something is paraphrasing or quoting, ask.
19. IC's (and myself for non-strategy related questions) are here to help you. See this wiki page for details about how they should be heping you. Feel free to ask any questions, that is part of the purpose of this game, to help the new players learn.
20. I reserve the right to edit these rules as I see fit.

Zero or one person received:
You are the Mafia Goon, your partner is (XXXX), who is the Roleblocker. Each night you may discuss the game with your partner, and also send me the name of a player. That player will die. You may discuss during the confirmation stage. You win when the number of mafia is the same as the number of pro-town people. The game can be found here.

Zero or one person received:
You are the Mafia Roleblocker, your partner is (XXXX), who is a Mafia Goon. Each night you may discuss the game with your partner, and also send me the name of a player. That player will die. Also, you may send me the name of the same or a different player. That player, if they have a nightchoice, it will fail. You may discuss during the confirmation stage. You win when the number of mafia is the same as the number of pro-town people. The game can be found here.

Five to seven people received:
You are a Townie, you have nothing but your vote so put it to good use. You win when all Mafia are dead. The game can be found here.

Zero or one person received:
You are a Cop, each night you may send me the name of a player. So long as both you and your target survive the night, I will tell you whether that player is innocent or guilty. If your investigation fails, whether it be because you died, your target died, or you were roleblocked, you will be told what caused it to fail. You win when all the Mafia are dead. The game can be found here.

Zero or one person received:
You are a Doc, each night you may send me the name of a player. If the Mafia try to kill that player, they will survive instead. You win when all the Mafia are dead. The game can be found here.

@RPG, click the "watch this topic for replies" at the bottom of the screen under "Post Reply". You can also I think set it in your profile to automatically watch a topic when you reply to it.

btw, I'm your SE for this game, meaning I've some some experience. I've finished one game (Newbie 802, it's a good read if you have some time on your hands, and since it's done we can refer to it in this game if need be), and am currently in this and two others.

Here is a link to the wiki, which has a lot of helpful information. If you can't find what you need there, you can always ask in thread.

Anyway, I'll leave all of the rest of the helpfulness to Vamparific, as he is our IC and that's his job. ;)

Cheers!

no problem.

btw to RPG and everyone else new that doesn't yet have an avatar, I suggest you get one, because it SIGNIFICANTLY helps with reading through a thread, especially if you get behind or are short on time and need to quickly see who said what. For whatever reason, the brain can identify a pictures faster than a username.

oh, sorry for the double post but i couldnt find a way to edit my post to include the following information:

Until friday or saturday, i will be without a computer due to my charger to my laptop breaking. Just letting a mod know so you dont think i disappeared....

You cannot edit in Mafia Games unless you are the mod so that players cannot change information.

Thank you for letting me know.

So this just in: I will be away for work from Fri-Sun and will not have a computer available (Gotta love the 15-18 hr work days.)

If this is too much of a gap in time then go ahead and replace me... just when I confirmed this hadnt come up yet.

Thanks for understanding.

This is not enough time to need to replace you. Thank you for lettting me know.

btw, yeah there's no edit button for players in-game. So once you say something, it's said. There's no taking it back.

That's why there's an acronym for it: EBWOP, which means Edit By Way Of Post (not to be confused with Edit By Way Of Preview, which is when you use the Topic Review feature by clicking "Preview" on the posting screen, which is VERY helpful, especially to make sure your formatting in your post is correct).

Also, while I'm at it, one thing I forgot to mention is that pretty much throughout the rest of the game, I'll be referring to people by abbreviations because I'm lazy (for instance "RPG*Twilight" is too long to type out every time, so I might just call you RPG or R*T or something). Feel free to call me david, king, ikd, or whatever comes to mind (as long as it's nice and it's clear to whom you're referring).

Cheers.

Well it looks like only Friday and Saturday will be slow, so hopefully it won't effect the game
that
much. I hope it doesn't because I'm pretty excited to play.

One confirm left. Let's get this started quickly.

Return to “The Road to Rome [Newbie Games]”
