Zelda Mafia Round 2 Night One (IMPORTANT, REPLACEMENT NEEDED!)

[Cravdraa]

Okay, so I spent the better part of the day setting up this game. I completely rewrote the rules and the roles. Then I loss the rules. >_< So I quickly rewrote the rules by modifing the ones from the first game. They're nowhere near as well oganized as the ones I lost, and it's possible I might have missed a few changes that were supposed to be made. But I'm pretty damn tired at the moment, and I just wanted to get this started before I went to bed. So please bare with me.

Greeting! I believe you all know me. That's right, I'm Crav and I'll be hosting this game of Zelda mafia. I've put a lot of effort into it, so I hope you'll all enjoy it.

In "Mafia" the players are divided into two groups; the Town, and the Mafia.
If you're a member of the town you win if, at any point, all of the mafia members have been eliminated. If you are a member of the Mafia, you win if the Mafia ever comprises a majority of the remaining players.

Here's the game works.
The rules of mafia are simple. Each game "day" is divided into day and night.
During the day, the players post in this topic, trying to decide which members of the Town are actually Mafia in disguise.

Each player gets one vote, and whenever one player has a majority of the town's votes, that player is lynched by the town, and is eliminated.

During the day, the town tries to decide who is acting evil, and debates about who to lynch. However, the mafia will try to mislead the town into lynching a town member instead.

Each day lasts until one player is lynched or until the time limit has passed. After a player is lynched, the day ends, and it becomes night. No player may post in the thread during the night. During the night, the mafia chooses one player to hit, and will PM me their choice. That player is killed, and eliminated. Also during the night, some players may have night abilities (detailed after the game begins. If they wish to use these, they PM me with their actions during the night).
Play continues in this day/night sequence until either side's victory condition is met, at which point the game is over.

Players with beneficial night abilities would be best to keep them secret, so as not to become instant nightkill targets for the mafia. Therefore, it's usually best to keep your abilities secret for at least the first portion of the game.

1. Vote by bolding your choice. It should look like this.
Vote: Person

2. There will be NO post editing. If you made a spelling mistake, then so long as it's still readable, then leave it be. I might be a little more lenient about this in the beginning, but once we get on in days, I will reserve the right to modkill you. Sorry, but this is in place so evidence stays put.

3. Please be active. By signing up you're stating that you know this game may take a while, and that the other players are depending on you to play. If you go inactive without any real reason why, I will reserve the right to replace/modkill you.

4. Don't post anything game related during the night.

5. You are not to communicate to other players about this game outside of it unless it's stated by your role.

6. All PMs concerning night skills must be sent to me.

7. Don't quote my PMs. You can paraphrase, but that's it.

8. At the beginning of the game, "Days" will last five actual days, and "Nights" will last two actual days so keep that in mind when going for a lynch, or using your night skills. This may change if I see that we need more or less time.

9. In the last game there was quite a bit of confusion about role playing and it turned into a big mess. So I'm saying this now. IF YOU WISH TO ROLE PLAY IT IS NEITHER RECOMENDED NOR IS IT A GOOD IDEA TO ROLEPLAY YOUR SECRET ROLE! If the mafia know your role then they can pick and choose when they want you dead. This is hardly ideal, so you probably shouldn't do it.

Zelda mafia

Because this game is zelda themed, almost everybody will have a role or item related to the games. This time I've decided to go ahead with the Majora's Mask theme.

Items are a special feature of this game.
Items behave very similar to an ability you might have, but the difference is that items are usually single use, and they can be sent to other players, if you so choose. (This should be done by PMing me what the item is and who you wish to send it to.) Items can only be sent during the night, however, you can send multiple items in one night, if you so choose.
An item can be used the same night as one of your abilities, unless stated otherwise by your role.

By the way, This game also feature a couple of what are called, Hero characters. Basicly the mafia can't win unless all of the heros have been killed.

Status ailments
While playing, you may find that some how or another you've been given a bad status. These are what you need to look out for:

Cursed: You've been cursed. You can't use any abilities for one whole day or night. Tough luck. Hopefully you didn't have anything important to do.

Poisoned: You've been poisoned! It's not life threatening but the next day, you'll only be able to make 5 posts before colapsing and sleeping it off. Better make them count.

Dazed: You just aren't feeling completely all there. You get confused easily. Theres a 33% chance an ability used while you have this condition could miss the target you intend and hit a different player.

Basic mafia
Here's an example of a Night/Day phase.


NIGHT PHASE: There is very little to no talking. All roles with abilities must send their actions to the Game Moderator before the chosen time limit is up, otherwise, they will find their turn skipped.

ACTIONS OCCUR: The Moderator posts and explains what happens, being as vague or specific as they choose. This is where people are declared dead and whatnot, and NIGHT becomes DAY.

DAY PHASE: This is where the game gets interesting. A time limit is set, and a majority of persons still alive must be reached vote-wise on a single person. Once this occurs, that individual will be lynched, killed, and their role revealed. IF no majority is reached, then there is no lynch. Players are allowed to discuss during this phase: and where the whole 'trickery, deceit, and lies' part comes in.

ONCE A MAJORITY IS/ISN'T REACHED: The Moderator, if there is a lynch, reveals the role of the voted out person. DAY becomes NIGHT, and the cycle begins again.


You will all be getting your role PM's soon. If you have a question, DO NOT ask what your role does in this topic (common sense.)
Instead PM me your question and I'll do my best to answer it.


The game starts on night 0.
Nothing happens on night Zero. This is just so that I can get everything set up. Please post in this topic to let me know you've gotten your Role PM. Once most of you show up, we'll begin the actual game.
