Games Mafia Game 103 - Chainsam Pan: End Game

[Copy Panda]

Spoiler: Here are zhe night actions!

I thank you all for playing! It was an entertaining game to spectate. I hope most enjoyed the gameplay as well! Thank you to my fellow co-host @SirSamuel016 (and briefly @Farfalla) for providing the necessary support and inputs during the game! Once again thank you @Valhalla for the avatars! And most of all, congratulations mafia team (as the kids say nowadays) for copping the W! Also shoutouts to @GB for not speaking the truth once this game!

It was a simple but engaging experience. As you can see, the ???? was just another townie. In hindsight perhaps not as impactful but it was very omo seeing you all speculate over the identity of this mystery role. Unfortunately, in this sterile environment, we didn't get to trial the devil properly, as they both passed quickly. I think in special circumstances the potential is there, it is rather powerful in a more role-heavy comp. There are just enough secondaries for the psychiatrist to put IQ into analyzing their result (a difficult role to play in this game). Bomb's dominant strategy I think was somehow getting the mafia to kill them (feigning devil? ). Freeman... Died uncovered. And also came out quite early. If they had to die, that was probably the best time. The traitors deployed interesting strategies. Very exotic approach. Mafia overall played pretty decent; the first few nights town mislynched and only towards the mid-to-end did non-towns start perishing.

I am curious what you thought of the game and each other's performances! Was town too lazy? Was ???? too spicy? Did non-town play strong enough? Curious what you guys think of such role- and mechanicless comps ~

Once again, thank you, everyone! It was super spicy

MAFIA GAME 103 - Chainsam Pan

Spoiler: How to Play Mafia Game!

Game instructions

Spoiler

The MH specific game rules will be explained below. If you would like to play, please announce your participation in the "Mafia Game Discussion" Thread. This thread is strictly for playing the game. Thank you.

Spoiler

Players will be secretly assigned two roles. One group will play the "Mafia" role; the other group will play the "townspeople" role. The townspeople will not know who other townspeople or Mafia members are. However the Mafia members will know who is a Mafia member and who isn't.

During the day phase, all of the players debate the identities of the Mafia members and at the end each person will vote to eliminate a suspect. This is carried out in the "game thread". In the game's "night" phase the Mafia will discuss through PM’s (which will be sent to the host when it’s over) on who they should kill. They will then send the unlucky person’s name onto to the host. Play will then continue until all of the Mafia have been eliminated, or until the Mafia reaches the same number as the townspeople.

A typical game will start with a minimum of 7 players, 5 Townspeople and 2 Mafia members. The members that will be Mafia and Townspeople will be chosen through a random list generator . Whereby the participating player’s names will be put in and after the randomisation the Mafia roles will go to the names at the top of the list. This is to avoid butthurt and favouritism accusations. :'[

Lastly, the numbers of Mafia Members depends on the number of participants! (the numbers are indicative)

7 - 10 = 2 Mafias
11 - 13 = 3 Mafias
14 - 17 = 4 Mafias
18 - 20 = 5 Mafias
21 - 24 = 6 Mafias
etc.

Game Phases

Spoiler

PHASE 1: DAY
This is where you discuss/argue about who is and isn't mafia. As soon as the day phase starts, you are allowed to vote. The day phase will take place strictly inside the “game” thread. Any discussions regarding the day phase outside the thread will be dealt with severely.
VOTE KILL [user]
This will be the manner in which you vote. Make sure it is clearly displayed in your post though caps/coloured or bold font.

You will be only allowed 1 vote change per phase. So use your vote wisely. Day phase will last about 24 hours, or until the host gets a majority on votes for one person (majority = half +1)
PHASE 2: NIGHT
The host closes the game thread during the night phases.
There should be no discussion about the game during the night phase, regardless of the player is still in the game or already out.

During the night phase, the mafia members will collaborate and choose who they want to kill. They will not do this in the thread, but via PMs with each other/other alternative communication channels approved by the host, such as pirate pad.

At the beginning of the game, the Mafia members will be informed of the other members. The Mastermind (Boss) must PM the host telling them their choice for the night's murder and the murderer from his team. They should also pm the PM discussions separately. There can only be one murder in the night phase therefore the mafia members must come to an agreement.

If the Mafia don't send in their night kill before the night phase ends, then their action will not be performed. The Mafia can also send in their night actions during the previous day phase if they think they will not be online during the coming night.

The time for the Night phases is set by the host.

MH Specific Game Rules

Spoiler

ACTIVITY RULES

Be active in the day phase and post at least three times. It's a Minor Violation if you don't do that and will result in Penalty Vote(s)/Hostkill and ban from future games (Hall of Shame). If you are going to miss out on a period of time due to real-life events make sure to inform the host, who is going to judge each situation individually and decide whether or not taking the player out of the game is necessary.
Place at least one vote every day phase. It's a Minor Violation if you forget to place a vote and will result in Penalty Vote(s)/Hostkill and a ban from future games (Hall of Shame).
Don't post more than 100 times per day phase. This is to reduce spam and the volume of posts per game. Nobody has time to go through hundreds of one-liner posts with the same content over and over again (Imperium Copyright Rule). If you hit the volume restriction, it's a Minor Violation you will get a Penalty Vote per 10 additional posts you make.
No talking during Night Phases, except for some roles that it is explicitly allowed and encouraged. The Night phases are only to send in Night Actions. The scale of punishment for players who are caught discussing game content during the night may vary from Minor Violation to instant Hostkill, depending on the seriousness of the comment and/or warnings given before. NEW
Dead people can't talk. So don't post once your character is dead; do not help others once you are dead. You can, however, lurk the thread. If you post regardlessly, you will be banned from future games (Hall of Shame).

OUTER THREAD RULES

Absolutely DO NOT discuss the game outside of the game thread (unless you are Mafia members discussing it with another mafia through pms/piratepad). This is so that people do not reveal their roles and ruin the game. Players violating this rule will be instantly host killed and banned from future games (Hall of Shame).
Do not directly comment on the current game, once you are dead. This is so you don't influence the players that are still playing. Violators of this rule will be banned from future games (Hall of Shame).

OTHER GAME RULES

You are not allowed to post any screenshots, PMs or anything similar that can reveal your role, or the role of others, nor fake host PMs. If you do, you will be host killed and banned from future games (Hall of Shame).
You are not allowed to pretend to be a Daytime Vigilant, Cowboy, or other roles, that have Day Commands. It's a Minor Violation if you do that regardlessly.
You are not allowed to ignore directions sent to you by the host, for example, a mandatory vote change by the Politician. It's a Minor Violation if you fail to respond accordingly. NEW
You are not allowed to majorly edit the content of your posts, nor delete any of your own or someone else's posts without the Host's approval. If you do, you may get a Minor Violation punishment or host killed immediately and banned from future games (Hall of Shame).

RULE BREAKING, PUNISHMENT & HALL OF SHAME

Minor Violations are "small rules violations", which do not result in a host kill instantly but are sanctioned with Penalty Votes first. For the first Minor Violation you get 1 Penalty Vote, for the second you get 3 Penalty Votes and the third gets you host killed. Three Minor Violations of any kind will lead to a host kill. NEW
If you disobey the roles above that are resulting in you being host killed and/or banned from future games, you will get registered in the Hall of Shame.
One violation bans you from the upcoming game.
A second violation of the same kind will ban you from the next three-game.
A third violation and you are out from all upcoming games.
No amnesty or prescription until further notice.

MH Specific Hosting Regulations

Spoiler

DAY PHASES & VOTINGS

Each active player has to vote during a day phase. Each player has the chance to change his vote once.
A day phase can be ended earlier, if and only if one player has collected more than a half+1 of the second votes ("locked votes") of all players and each player has voted at least once (Absolute Majority Voting).
If by the end of the regular time of the day phase two or more players have the same amount of votes, the second votes ("locked votes") are decisive. The player with the most locked votes is being lynched.
If one or more players have the same amount of votes and locked votes, each player is getting the possibility to change his vote one more time. The regular day phase is being expanded for the means of further discussions.
If the voting result is the same by the end of the expanded day phase, both players are being lynched.

NIGHT PHASES & ACTIONS

During the night phase, each player with a role with a night action may send it into the host via PM.
The player may or may not make use of his action. If the player misses the deadline and does not submit his action within the given time, it is seen as not used action. It is possible, however, to submit it before the start of the night, if the player already knows he has no time to do it later.
The night actions are listed in Priority groups. The higher the priority ranking, the more likely it is that the night action is being executed successfully. The first actions to be performed are those from P1, then P2 and ending with P3.
If two-night action roles from the same priority group target the same player at night a coin flip will decide which night action is executed first.

NIGHT ACTIONS PRIORITY GROUPS

PRIORITY - "ROLE BLOCKING"
(Prostitute, Hypnotist, Mafia Escort, etc.)
PRIORITY - "SAVING & INVESTIGATING" (& more)
(Doctor, Detective, Spy, Sickly Townie, Hider, etc.)
PRIORITY - "KILLING & RECRUITING"
(Mafia Member, Mafia Boss, Third Party, Time Bomb, Insane Doctor, Maison Recruiter, Pirate's Robbing, etc.)

Keep in mind the basic behavior rules of the game:​

• Post at least 3 times and Vote at least once every Day Phase.​
• Don't post more than 100 times per day phase. ​
• No talking during the Night Phases, no talking about the game outside the game thread and no talking if you are dead.​
• You are not allowed to post any screenshots of PMs or anything similar that can reveal your role or the role of others, whether real or fake, nor to quote the exact words of host PMs.​
• You are not allowed to majorly edit the content of your posts, nor delete any of your own or someone else's post without the Host's approval.​
• You are not allowed to ignore directions sent in to you by the host, for example a mandatory vote change by the Politician.​

Lore

This is a similar line-up to that of last time (Game 100)! Some new faces, some roster swaps. As you can see, I made some modifications to the list.
Additionally, I introduced a new role that sees frequent use on other boards, the Devil.
A simple battle. Or so it would seem.
Godspeed, Trave- oh wrong gaem​

 

[Lady pompom]

Omona, role list with extra ??? Spicy role?

 

[GrySun]

OMO this is spicy, I did not expect a mostly vanilla game, with (almost) fill role transparency. 3 mafias, 1 mystery member(very likely a TP of sorts) and a bunch of vanilla townies.

 

[Marmalade]

omo~ interesting indeed. That's something different yes yes. But perhaps it's fun to play a game like this for a change!
Wonder what the ??? stands for

Great theme. Great avatars @Valhalla

Yooo pink hair, angry face... No idea who this chick is but these hosts know me so well

Gonna get Oli to sleep in a bit and finish my beer and play more.

Ty for the avies Val-chaaaaan!

 

[Shad]

I don't like this dude in my avatar! I want to trade! all others look great, my dude look like he doesn't eat enough...

So the devil is a secondary role pre assigned to the player from the get go, no way to get it using the mechanic?

I propose to lynch Gry, we can't risk having a mafia Gry without roles to use on him!

 

[Farfalla]

Wut, Kouhai ain't simping, but wanna lynch Marcie? What happened in Germany?

 

[Marmalade]

Probably didn't want to share the pancakes, now it's time for revenge I'm assuming

 

[Farfalla]

Do you wanna votelynch Lambs, Marm? He didn't tag you for the GI code.

 

[Shad]

Wut, Kouhai ain't simping, but wanna lynch Marcie? What happened in Germany?

lol you are misunderstanding my relation with Gry leading you to think I'm simping xD
You are still my senpai!

I didn't spam doc on him last game because I love him, it was just the optimal play, I'm of the opinion that best Gry is dead Gry unless I have a way to confirm him using mechanic or roles!

 

[Farfalla]

Hmmm senpai might watch you, mister.
I'm still hearting that post, I'm a simple old woman.

 

[Lambu]

My character having a beak mask had to be intentional

Vanilla game, a most welcome surprise.

--- Double Post Merged, Jul 16, 2022, Original Post Date: Jul 16, 2022 ---

Awesome avis @Valhalla , damn you are on a roll with this quality

 

[Shad]

So how do we play this?

My opinion for now:

- no one should claim to be townie for a start, it counter productive for the freeman, bomb and Psy.

- some of the townies may have devil as secondary roles, probably 2 out of 3 mafia have it as well, since it isn't a bonus action, it make sense for the 2 mafia members to be devils.

- some of the townies may be recruitable and/or lovers, Secondary roles make sense in this setup as a way to make it confusing who is traitor/lover and who is devil if checked by the Psy.

seems that today vote will be based on how I feel about the players.

 

[Tatsumaki]

I don't like this dude in my avatar! I want to trade! all others look great, my dude look like he doesn't eat enough...

HOW DARE YOU ! It's not a dude, it's a badass polyamorous lesbian. She's the one I was asking to have as my avy but apparently Sam and Panda hate me

The avys are great, too bad I'm stuck with the good for nothing of the bunch.

--- Double Post Merged, Jul 16, 2022, Original Post Date: Jul 16, 2022 ---

Anyway very simple mechanics, that will still cause mayhem tho, I like that.

I'll see y'all after a good night sleep.

 

[Lambu]

Imma do the DD approach this time and votekill Marmalade first thing in the day.

--- Double Post Merged, Jul 17, 2022, Original Post Date: Jul 17, 2022 ---

We either start suspecting each other right now or we are in for a boring Day 1

 

[Farfalla]

But is this rly a DD approach or are you suspecting Marm for something as you say?

 

[Lambu]

First post felt weird yes, so its not really random. Starting suspicions early should prove useful in a vanillaish situation like this one.
