: (stolen from MeMe)
The Setup
One of the following four set-ups has been randomly selected and will be used for this game:
a) 2 mafia, 1 cop, 1 doc, 3 townies
b) 2 mafia, 1 cop, 4 townies
c) 2 mafia, 1 doc, 4 townies
d) 2 mafia, 5 townies
Possible role PMs:
You are the town's cop.
Each "night" you can submit the name of one other player to me by PM. I will tell you whether that player is mafia or not.
Please remember that you are not allowed to communicate with any of the other players outside the thread about this game.
You win when the mafia are dead.
______________
You are the town's doc.
Each "night" you can submit the name of one other player to me by PM. That player will survive if the mafia tries to kill him that night. You are not allowed to select yourself to be protected.
Please remember that you are not allowed to communicate with any of the other players outside the thread about this game.
You win when the mafia are dead.
______________
You are a townie.
You are just a simple citizen, trying to figure out who is mafia and who is not. You do not have any special night ability.
Please remember that you are not allowed to communicate with any of the other players outside the thread about this game.
You win when the mafia are dead.
______________
You are a mafia member.
Each "night" you and your partner, XXX, can try to kill one other player. Either of you can submit the name by PM to me.
You are allowed to talk to your partner by PM during the "night". You may not talk to him/her during the "day", nor may you talk to any other player in the game.
The two of you win when all other players are dead.

Note 1: In most games, set-ups are not known before the game starts. Here the set-up is known because it's a newbie game and we want to keep things understandable.
Note 2: Also most other games start with a "night" phase, so mafia members can kill and cops can investigate before there is a chance to discuss. To make sure every newbie survives untill day 1 (so he has a chance to speak, vote, and play the game) this first night phase is now skipped.
