Mafia sign up thread
« on: 19 Nov 2012, 13:02 »

Greetings denizens of CHATTER. I bring to you all a chance to join a game known as Mafia.

What is Mafia you ask? It is a game primarily composed of two factions, the village, the majority who do not know their own members, and the mafia, the minority who know their own members. The mafia aim to kill villagers during the night until only their own remain. Meanwhile, the villagers vote on who to lynch during the day in order to weed out the mafia scum. Lynches occur when over half the players vote on a target.

Though the mafia may have the ability to kill a villager once a night, some villagers gets roles of their own whether it be discerning the role of another person or the ability to protect a fellow player from getting killed.

The game I plan on hosting will hold 14 players and will begin when the slots are filled.

What do you say? Shall we play a game?

I guess we're playing in the forum?  Do we need to check in at any particular frequency? 

Sounds like fun...

I'd play, if that's cool (it's my experience on other forums that people with fewer posts than fingers don't tend to stick around long enough for a Mafia game, but I promise not to flake).  I love this game so much.

We would indeed be playing in the forum! After everyone is signed up, I'll open a new thread specifically to play the game. Mafia is divided into day and night, but since 12 hours is a bit harsh, "day" would last 48 hours, so everyone can debate who to lynch, while "night" would be 24 hours, so people can send in their actions for the night.

As long as you use the messenger system to get responses from the Mafia/ Police/ Doctor/ Jesus, etc, this game should work superbly! Count me in.

Minimum number achieved! Expect the official Mafia game thread to be launched later today. Until then, if you still want to join the fun, post on here and declare your interest!

Better late than never! Mafia game has been launched. All roles have received a PM. If you did not get a PM, you're a regular villager.

I hope you all will take into consideration what I was saying before I was murdered! Considering I said a lot and it was probably why I was killed.

Also I'm going to hazard a guess that the mafia thought I was the cop. FOOLED YOU!

Not really. I honestly like pretending I'm a little crazy paranoid in these things and being dead can just make you all even more paranoid. MWAHAHAHA!

And if I can't be bothered to remember to water plants when I'm alive, I most certainly won't now that I'm dead!

I'm glad the corpses liked the game! I'm going to set up a new game after this one ends. I'm aiming for 18 effectives, as it lets us play a more complex version of the game!

And now the remaining members of the village are preparing to kill yet another innocent person. Duh, guys, and or hello.

Also Carl, I never expected you to be the supreme evil, so well done!

The GM in me is saying "noooooo, metagaming!"  But the player in me is saying "Oooh, tell me MORE!"  It is my eternal dilemma.

Or maybe we just all start with oujia boards in our inventories?
