RAPIDLY APPROACHING SIGNUPS

Spoiler: ALL I HAVE FOR YOU IS A WORD - TENET. IT WILL OPEN THE RIGHT DOORS, SOME OF THE WRONG ONES TOO

This is a game of 26 players. 20 Tenet Operatives (the town) vs 6 Satar Operatives (the mafia).
The game is split into two public timestreams of 13 Operatives each. Operatives may only post and vote in their respective timestreams. Temporal posting violations will be issued warnings at first. If the incidents continue, stronger measures may be taken.

Spoiler: HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO DIE?

During pregame, the Sator Operatives may decide how to distribute themselves between the two timestreams. They may choose 4-2, 3-3, or 2-4. The town roles are then distributed based on this.

If all Sator Operatives are eliminated in one timesteam at any time night 2 and before, it will be announced in the respective thread.

Spoiler: YOU HAVE TO START LOOKING AT THE WORLD IN A NEW WAY

One timesteam runs forwards. This thread begins at the beginning of day 1 and runs like a normal game of Mafia - votes work normally.

The other timestream is inverted. This thread begins at the end of day 7 and runs towards day 1. In this game, all Operatives "begin" the day voting everyone else. An Operative is hammered in this timestream by a majority unvoting them. The flip then occurs at the beginning of day 7 and night "starts" at the end of night 6 and "ends" at the start of night 6.

Roles can shift or even completely change between the two timestreams. Operatives are informed what will occur to them if they invert.

When one timestream is hammered, it will lock, but the flip will not occur until the other timestream hammers as well. When there is a hammer, the deadline is reduced to 48 hours in the other thread and a warning is issued. Both flips will occur when both timestreams are hammered. Both nights run simultaneously.

Sator Operatives have a factional nightkill in each timestream, until the temporal pincer. Roles can only target Operatives in their own timestream.

Spoiler: DON'T TRY TO UNDERSTAND IT. FEEL IT.

Both timestreams have a public Turnstile that may be used once per day. An Operative is voted to use this in the same manner as the elimination. When the Turnstile is hammered, the voted Operative is immediately inverted to the other timestream. The Operative being inverted must be one of the votes on the Turnstile.

A timestream's Turnstile cannot be used a second time until the opposite Turnstile is used once, etc.

Spoiler: WE ALL BELIEVE WE'D RUN INTO THAT BURNING BUILDING. BUT UNTIL WE FEEL THAT HEAT, WE CAN NEVER KNOW

Both timestreams also have access to the Purple Room, a temporary neighborhood that opens each night. Each timestream may vote for an Operative to go to the Purple Room with an Operative from the other timestream in the same manner as voting for the elimination and Turnstiles. A new PT is created each night.

The nature of this Room, including who can access it, is ambiguous.

Spoiler: THIS IS WHERE OUR WORLDS COLLIDE

At day four (when the forwards timestream reaches the beginning of day four and the inverted timestream reaches the end of day four) the temporal pincer will occur. Both timestreams will merge into one main thread. From this point on, the elimination will take place in this thread. Sator Operatives will be reduced to one factional nightkill. Voting still works the same way (so inverted unvotes count as forwards votes). Roles will now be able to target Operatives in either timestream.

The separate timestreams and Turnstiles will remain open, as Operatives will still be able to invert and access the Purple Room each day.

Timestreams may move past where the opposite timestream started (i;e the inverted timestream could theoretically go to negative days).

Spoiler: WELCOME TO THE AFTERLIFE

As the timestreams move into the days already experienced by the opposing timestream, Operatives who died in those phases will return to life for one day only. Operatives return on the day matching the phase number they died in (so if someone died night 2 in the forwards timestream, they would return in day 2 of the inverted timestream). As these Operatives are only temporarily returned to life, they have limits upon them. They may not vote or use roles, and may only post 25 posts, each limited to 200 words. As well, they can only post in the timestream they are returning to - not the merged timestream.

Operatives eliminated in the merged timestream cannot return in this manner.

Operatives who died before the temporal pincer cannot access dead chat until after this "return" has concluded.

PRE-INS: 8/10

Pokemon Adventures

The adventure of your dreams is waiting for you in the mini-theme queue!

---

Play as any evolutionary line of pokemon in this uPick with mechanics focused on tabletop RPG elements.
Not only will you get to play a game of mafia, but during the twilight phase, you may go on choose to visit a vast selection of locations, each with an exciting quest and adventure waiting for you.
(Also this game has nothing to do with the Pokemon Adventures manga)

Here are some mechanics that I am looking to put into the game*

This may or may not be subject to change depending on the design phase. Keep in mind I have to try to design something thats RUNNABLE

- Lots of exciting areas and locations to explore.
- Quests that may heavily rly on RNG.
- Quests may either go well for you or poorly. Worst Case Scenario: You die.
- Role PMs that might look like DnD character sheets.

Other important things to note.
- I attempt to turn on my brain when making the game.
- uPick. Send me 3 seperate evolutionary lines.
- Blitz Deadlines with Plurality. So far I have deadlines set to 48/24 but I am definitely thinking about extending them and if you want them to be extended, pm me. At most 96 - 120 days / 24-72 nights (another factor that may affect deadlines is quest length. 72 hour nights can be quite extreme so if the game has 72 hour nights, its justified by quest lenght needing to be that long. I don't see this being realistically happening but be prepared).
- Two headed hydrae are welcome, anything else can burn in a fire. Willing to make hydra specific roles but they'll be nothing like my hydra only games.

Россияне победили. Президент Андрюс и вице-президент AlamasterGM лежат мертвые на полу, застреленные российским вдохновителем Унтродом Триподом. Сказана победная речь, Соединенные Штаты завоеваны Советами. Террорист, отказавшись сдаться, покончил жизнь самоубийством. Америка была уничтожена ядерным оружием.

Но американское сопротивление остается вопреки тирании русского повелителя Унтрода Трипода. Теперь начинается новый день. Битва возобновляется. Возникают новые фигуры террора. Битва проиграна, но война еще не окончена...

Spoiler: Translation

The Russians have won. President Andrius and Vice President AlamasterGM lie dead on the floor, shot dead by Russian mastermind Untrod Tripod. The victory speech has been delivered, the United State conquered by the Soviets. The Terrorrist, refusing to surrender, has committed suicide. America has been destroyed by nuclear weapons.

But American resistance remains, defiant to the tyranny of Russian Overlord Untrod Tripod. Now, a new day begins. The fight renews. New figures of terror arise. New Americans bravely step up, eager to become heroes. The battle was lost, but the war is anything but over...

Townstumps Mafia

A twist on the StumpFight games, I bring you a Mini Theme masquerading as a Large.

15 players enter the game, and we find out who amongst you is trusted to carry the town on their backs. As a whole, the player list will decide on two people to be the Townstumps. Both players will be aligned with the town. What criteria will you use to choose them? That's entirely up to you, but my suggestion would be highest quality of chili recipe. Any player may choose to remove themselves from the running for Townstump at any time before the selection is over.

What do the Townstumps do? Well, they try to win the game for town, for one thing. For another, they help design the setup. That's right, the townstumps will be chosen before any roles are. Each townstump can privately submit any Normal role to be given to a single town player. If the role is incredibly complicated or broken, I reserve the right to veto it, replacing it with a VT, but I do not foresee this happening. After the Stumps have sent in their choices I will finish balancing the game as is necessary to make a balanced 10v3 setup. There will be a 1 shot power role that the stumps may access by having one of them publicly retire from the game. The stumps will be given knowledge of what this power is. The stumps will not have access to any private topics.

Note: Aside from the roles chosen by the stumps, Normalcy will not be guaranteed for this game. Coming Soon to a mafiascum near you.

Prelude

:

Spoiler: The sons of man who live on the earth say; There, is where the rite to rule over the world lies.

DO NOT JOIN THIS GAME IF YOU DON’T LIKE MECHANICS. DO NOT JOIN THIS GAME FULLY EXPECTING A TRADITIONAL MAFIA GAME. THIS GAME IS EXPERIMENTAL, BUT IS NOT BASTARD. I WILL NEVER LIE TO YOU. ALL INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE MODERATOR WILL ALWAYS BE THE TRUTH. I HAVE SPENT A LOT OF EXTRA TIME MAKING SURE THIS GAME WILL NOT BE UNBALANCED, BUT THERE IS A CHANCE OF SWING. DO NOT JOIN THIS GAME UNLESS YOU ARE FULLY COMMITTED OR UNDERSTAND THE RISKS.

Spoiler: The philosophers with deep knowledge inscribe; There, is where the mysteries of the world become clear.

THIS GAME USES ITS OWN FORM OF NIGHT ACTION RESOLUTION WHICH IS:

HIGH-PRIORITY ACTIONS (SPECIAL) > DISRUPTIVE ACTIONS (BINDING/DEBUFF/DELAYING) > UTILITY (PROTECTIVE, SUPPORT) > DAMAGING (NON-MORTAL) > LOW-PRIORITY ACTIONS (PASSIVES).

THIS IS THE HIERARCHY IN WHICH ACTIONS ARE PROCESSED TO DETERMINE AN OUTCOME. LEARN IT. READ IT. LOVE IT.

Spoiler: The descendants of ferocious warriors pass down; There, is where the world's strongest arms are inherited.

THE FLOW OF TIME IN THIS GAME IS DETERMINED BY STRATUM. THERE WILL BE MULTIPLE STRATUMS THROUGHOUT THE GAME. THIS GAME HAS A N0 WHICH WILL BE STRATUM 0. FOLLOWING THAT, THE FIRST DAY WILL BE STRATUM 1. NIGHT WHICH WILL BE STRATUM 2. SECOND DAY STRATUM 3. SO ON AND SO FORTH UNTIL THE GAME REACHES CONCLUSION.


THIS GAME USES A FORM OF OUTSIDE COMMUNICATION. THERE WILL BE A DISCORD SERVER THAT WILL UNLOCK EVERY NIGHT PHASE IN WHICH PEOPLE WILL BE ALLOWED TO TALK IN. THE SERVER WILL THEN LOCK AT THE BEGINNING OF THE NEXT STRATUM.

Spoiler: The tale that the praying people who travel the grassy plains spin; There, is where enormous gold and silver treasure sleeps.

THIS GAME USES AN HP SYSTEM FOR RESOLVING ACTIONS. EACH PLAYER WILL HAVE A BASE ATK WHICH WILL VARY DEPENDING ON WHAT CLASS YOU ARE. IF A PLAYER REACHES 0 HP BY AN ACTION, THEY WILL BE CONSIDERED MORTALLY WOUNDED. IN THIS STATE, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO POST, VOTE, OR DO ANYTHING. YOU ARE BASICALLY DEAD UNTIL I CAN POST YOUR FLIP. HOWEVER, ELIMINATING SOMEONE BY VOTE WILL ALWAYS INFLICT MORTAL DAMAGE, MEANING IT WILL NEGATE ALL OF YOUR REMAINING HP NO MATTER WHAT; THE MAFIA WILL HAVE A TRADITIONAL NIGHT KILL WHICH ALSO WILL INFLICT MORTAL DAMAGE, BUT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ATTACK AND INFLICT MORTAL DAMAGE AT THE SAME TIME.

Spoiler: Various races pursue various legends, and gather at Yggdrasil.

FOR EACH STRATUM YOU SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE (MEANING, YOU ARE ALIVE BY THE TIME IT HAS ENDED) YOU WILL RECEIVE A SKILL POINT. SKILL POINTS ARE A FORM OF CURRENCY THAT YOU USE IN ORDER TO USE ABILITIES. EVERYONE WILL START WITH 2 SKILL POINTS, AND INNATE ABILITIES WHICH DO NOT COST SKILL POINTS. YOU CAN ONLY USE MULTIPLE SP ABILITIES IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH SKILL POINTS TO DO SO. YOU MAY ONLY USE ONE INNATE ABILITY PER STRATUM. ASSUME ALL ABILITIES ARE TO BE USED AT NIGHT UNLESS SPECIFIED.

Spoiler: They all heed the dreams within their hearts, and demand new adventure!

SUBMITTING ACTIONS WILL BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT AS WELL. HERE IS A TEMPLATE FOR YOU TO USE:

Stratum 1

Target - Ability
Using skill point(s)? [Yes/No]
Skills you are unlocking: (Ability) [Cost], (Ability) [Cost], Etc.
