Rules
I am certain with this player base rules should not be an issue. But for brevity’s sake, here they are in full:
1. This is about having a fun game experience. Please keep the personal attacks and flaming to a minimum. If I feel that a player is violating the spirit of friendly competition they will receive one warning. If the problem persists, a modkill is a possibility.
2. All MTG Salvation and Mafia Forum rules apply in this game. If you are not familiar with said rules, please read up on them.
3. Please do not discuss this game in any way, shape, or form outside the legal avenues for this game. There will be a spectator chat for those who wish to spectate or have died in the game.
4. Please do not quote Role PM’s except the parts I have given permission that player‘s may claim. Role PM’s are standardized for every player, and every player can claim the standardized portions. Please do not quote any other PM’s that may occur between me (as a host) and you (as a player).
5. Bold your voting and unvoting. Unvoting is not necessary to cast a new vote.
6. Lynches require a majority. After a player has hit the lynch threshhold, no more votes or unvotes will be counted. After a player has been lynched there will be a lynch scene and the game will progress into night. There will be no discussion in the thread allowed during night. Once you are dead, you may no longer post in the game; this includes a “bah” post of any kind.
7. Editing or deleting a post will be grounds for a modkill. No exceptions.
8. If you have not posted for 72 hours, you will be prodded if you have not given the thread a “V/LA status” (Vacation / Limited Access) update. On the third prod you will be forcibly replaced.
9. Have fun!
***
Each of you now should have your Role PM’s. A sample Town Role PM might read as such:
[Name] - [Alignment and Role]
[Flavor and Abilities]
I am allowing players to claim Name and Alignment and Role. You must paraphrase the Flavor and Abilities and not quote them directly. If you have any questions about this, please pass it by me so you don’t accidentally get modkilled.

The deadline system used for this game will be (number of players) * (1.5 days). This means that you will have 18 days to lynch, and the Day will end in a no lynch on May 9, 2014 if you do not lynch before then. I will consider a extension if this doesn't work out.
In addition, there are up to three public deadline extensions available. These extensions may be requested by the players at any time in the thread, and may be granted at my sole discretion. Don't be mad if I say no.
The options are as follows:
A: 24 hours per player OR 7 days, whichever is shorter. B: 72 hours
C: 24 hours
- Once a particular extension is used, it cannot be used again that same game.
- Any number of extensions can be used in the same game Day.
- If the players do not specify which extension they wish to use (or if there is no consensus on which one to use), I will pick the remaining option highest up on the list.
- Extensions are appended to the deadline time. There's no need to strategically time when the request is made.
- At least two players must request an extension for it to be considered.
You awake in a grog and notice silhouettes around you. How can this be? You were just going to bed last night. And now you’re here…I mean, where exactly are you? You look down at your hands to get your bearings. They’re blurry. You blink once. Twice. Three times and shut your eyes and reopen them, the blurriness goes away slightly. You have enough wherewithal to realize that you’re sitting in an easy chair. You then realize that you are around with chairs. In a circular formation in a low lit room.
All of your training and this is how it ends? You see a silhouette enter the circle of chairs.
“My apologies ladies and gentlemen, but the drugs will wear off soon enough.”
You can hear people murmuring to themselves. In fact, you’re murmuring to yourself. The man (?) in the center of the room is faceless. As if he’s placed some sort of tight fitting ski mask over him. But you can see his eyes. Deep heavy set blue eyes. The rest of his body is covered in black.
“Eddie Blake is dead. Many of you probably knew him as the Comedian.”
Blake? How…?
“He was murdered. And that’s precisely why I’ve gathered you hear today. President Nixon has gotten overzealous with his power. He deemed it necessary that the legislation he passed to end vigilantism - to end “super heroism” was not enough. He’s recruited a group known as V.A.S.T. - the Vigilante Apprehension and Securement Team to do away with each of you until no more superheroes remain. I was able to do enough detective work to determine that the members of V.A.S.T. are in his room. But I do not know further who they are. That’s where you come in.”
To your right a familiar looking face has fought the drugs enough to get to his feet. He points at the speaking man and shouts…
“So we were in mortal peril so you kidnapped us and put us in mortal peril? Who exactly are you?”
The familiar man’s strength betrays him and he slouches back into his easy chair.
“Just consider me a Concerned Citizen. And you are not in mortal peril. That is why I have gathered you here. Determine who the members of V.A.S.T. are among yourselves and I’ll return you. Or let V.A.S.T. succeed and destroy you superheroes and end this that way. Either way: keep the fighting off the streets and in this mansion. No innocent blood needs to be spilled in this mansion. You’ll hear from me again.”
The drugs were indeed wearing off. The blurriness was going away. You look to your left and notice three or four heroes you’ve worked with or heard about in the past. You look to your right and notice another three or four. And then you look back to the Concerned Citizen and he’s… gone? How could that be?
Everyone turns their attention to a grandfather clock chiming away the hours. It is eleven PM. A disembodied voice seems to appear from all places at once.
“You have until midnight to discuss amongst yourselves. This Concerned Citizen will be back then.”
The Comedian is dead. And the murderers are in this room. Let the games begin.

It is now Day One. With 12 alive, it’s 7 to lynch!

Also, just a heads up. I won't be around much this week unless the fancy strikes me. I posted an out in the last game due to needing a break from mafia but didn't have the heart to keep it once I got my role pm and how long we've waited for this game to begin. But a bunch of recent incidents have me disliking the game of mafia and some of the people who play, and I just need a break before I explode.
Fate - you're forgiven for turning on me last game, and I hope I get to see what you look like as town again.

Iso - that was a serious vote? It's pretty bad. A vote for Tammy is a vote for town. Make a button for it, a blinking one or something.
Ced - fate doesn't need my forgiveness, he was scum last game so his turning on me was what he had to do, besides we won and I didn't get lynched, so it was all good. It was a joke referring to him falling off his horse and mixing me up with someone else.
Fate - lol <3. look at me buddying already
Dgb - are you serious with the real life tell? I'd appreciate it of I'm going to be scum read for my first post it's something more along the lines of she's already trying to blatantly emotionally manipulate people by referencing a bad mental state. That at least makes me sound a bit more dashing (can girls be dashing? If not, think of the female equivalent for dashing and replace it there) than some dreary rl excuse tell. Me need a break from mafia has been building for some time and is pretty evident if you look at the last two pages of the last crosstown game including my out Saturday night because I needed a break. I've declined invitations to play the past few weeks, asked nacho to hydra with me then Saturday told him I couldn't because I need a break. I don't *want* to be playing mafia right now. Nobody will want me playing mafia right now. I've just been involved in the most acerbic, hostile and vitriolic games lately, and yes part of the fault is mine because I react to baiting, insults and attacks and maybe I shouldn't, but what this boils down to is me not wanting anything to do with mafia right now. HOWEVER, this game has been waiting to go forever, and I'm not going to make them look for a replacement seeing as how the mod didn't know I outed, but idont think that giving me some understanding for like a week will kill anyone. It's not like I'm a day one scum hunting god anyway, my best attribute is to look town. If you want to lynch me because I admitted that I don't have the mental energy for mafia right now when I could have easily just went v/la, then be my guest, it also achieves underlying desire of mine not to play too.
Why are you so self-conscious in your second to last post, Tammy?
Why are you hyperaware of what people called you scummy for in the last games, Kami, if you didn't change that up in the last game? More importantly: If you can make a post that says 'ced is scum', why do you feel like you would be throwing your vote around? Is that not a reason to keep your vote in one spot, or is your read not firm enough? If the latter, then I really MUST know what makes ced scummier than Tammy in your eyes.

I mean it's almost like I didn't say in MY FIRST ******* POST I CAN'T DEAL WITH MAFIA RIGHT NOW AND I NEED A BREAK. I hope you're ******* town ISO, I really do because if you're scum and taking advantage of someone who is kind frankly literally telling you I can't handle this right now and I NEED A ******* BREAK, then I have no words.
Why is it that Taredas was the only one who could even understand where I might be coming from? Gonna call him town for that, just because he seems to remember humans are playing this stupid game.

I'm not "hyperaware" I had a vague recollection that was triggered when you brought it up. I'm incorrigible anyway.
I'm just not in the mood to vote yet. I'll vote when I have a few more reads.
I find ced game-avoidance a more convincing tell than Tammy's real life excuses. Tammy is pretty transparent, I'll get an accurate read of her soon enough.
ie this is the 'I'm sorry for my behavior in the past Tammy, recent events have made me empathize with you more' post.
It wasn't going to be me, hence the I'm taking a break, but I'm a masochist and I should stay away. I'll try to do better about this break thing going forward from here.
<3 I don't remember anything you need to apologize for; I've always liked playing with you but thank you

Like I mean that vote is sketch as hell, but I legit don't know what scum in their right mind would actually think that vote was in their best interest.

Not sure if I'm back for more than just this game, though. I was kind of interested in taking part in one of these cross-town games when they first came up, then Prophy offered me a spot in this one, so

This is bad. You should be ashamed, and mail in your concession now.

Did I mention this player is insanely town yet? Ok. Glad we're clear on that.

Also, the internet seems to have eaten my quote where Taredas proves he's scum. His first one in this thread. I'm too lazy to go back and quote it. Deal with it. vote Taredas. Not a random vote. Don't worry Iso, you're next.
Bleh. I should probably not keep continuing on the dark path to poking people for reactions. Consider that an apology, Kami.
Also, Iso, you may want to learn from my past mistakes and not push Tammy too hard. For one, she's obv-town, and for two, just because you're opposite alignments doesn't make it ok.
Oh. Tammy is female. That might complicate things, girls are weird. Still, seems legit.
Someday when we get enough girls to play mafia, I'll be able to read them more reliably, but up till now they've defied a lot of my normal analysis style. So far as I can tell, women lie in roughly the same fashion as men, but they don't always go about being a townie the same way. Does this sound vaguely sexist? Yes, this sounds vaguely sexist. Posting!
Man, the best thing I ever did was get rid of that pesky double-posting rule. I am teh besterest. And ya'all need to post more. Get on it. We've got like, six more people to clear and the game is over.

Iso: I shall make a preposterous case against someone!
Azrael: Your case is preposterous.
Iso: Shhhhh, you're messing with my cunning subterfuge to gain reactions!
Azrael: Cunning? Subterfuge?
If it were cunning, well - it just isn't cunning, so we can cross that off the list. It's a really blunt instrument, to the point that it looks to me like carelessness, or possibly show-boating for credentials, take your pick. If it were meant as subterfuge to gains reactions from an early wagon, well, that latest post puts a dagger right in the heart of any possible benefit from a townie perspective. Reads much more like a combination of A) annoyance at being called out early B) wanting to take credit for being sneaky and townish C)fear/adversarial instinct. I read that, and I see "fight or flight" plastered all over it. Happy with the vote.

I was able to do enough detective work to determine that the members of V.A.S.T. are in his room. But I do not know further who they are. That’s where you come in.”
To your right a familiar looking face has fought the drugs enough to get to his feet. He points at the speaking man and shouts…
“So we were in mortal peril so you kidnapped us and put us in mortal peril? Who exactly are you?”
The familiar man’s strength betrays him and he slouches back into his easy chair.
“Just consider me a Concerned Citizen. And you are not in mortal peril. That is why I have gathered you here. Determine who the members of V.A.S.T. are among yourselves and I’ll return you. Or let V.A.S.T. succeed and destroy you superheroes and end this that way. Either way: keep the fighting off the streets and in this mansion. No innocent blood needs to be spilled in this mansion. You’ll hear from me again.”
The drugs were indeed wearing off. The blurriness was going away. You look to your left and notice three or four heroes you’ve worked with or heard about in the past. You look to your right and notice another three or four. And then you look back to the Concerned Citizen and he’s… gone? How could that be?
*DONG* DONG* DONG* DONG* DONG* DONG *DONG* DONG* DONG* DONG* DONG*
Everyone turns their attention to a grandfather clock chiming away the hours. It is eleven PM. A disembodied voice seems to appear from all places at once.
“You have until midnight to discuss amongst yourselves. This Concerned Citizen will be back then.”
The Comedian is dead. And the murderers are in this room. Let the games begin.
***
It is now Day One. With 12 alive, it’s 7 to lynch!
The Comedian is dead; this is no laughing matter!
And also because Az has been scum in 2 of the 3 games I've played with him, so odds are he's probably scum in this game, too.
What's Gambler's Fallacy?

Also, just a heads up. I won't be around much this week unless the fancy strikes me. I posted an out in the last game due to needing a break from mafia but didn't have the heart to keep it once I got my role pm and how long we've waited for this game to begin. But a bunch of recent incidents have me disliking the game of mafia and some of the people who play, and I just need a break before I explode.
Fate - you're forgiven for turning on me last game, and I hope I get to see what you look like as town again.
Good to have you back, ced.

This is Fate.
I have a real name now, please re-send the role PM. If you want proof I can PM you on Mafiascum.net with my account
HI everyone.
I'm finally town. I've been scum for so long.
DGB's always known
I'm :HAPPY:
Anyone who refuses to answer shall be summarily guillotined. Have a nice day!
You want me to be honest? I would've replaced out if I had gotten a scum PM, because this is my first game of mafia with my new name.
Course, I won't do that in the future so there's no using this tell again ;D
Azrael, are you scum? Because we have to trust you first before we can answer, although I'm way too trusting.
(7 to lynch)
Cyan (1): ced395
Nachomamma8 (1): Tammy
Tammy (1): Iso
Abstain (8): Azrael, desCoures, Cyan, Taredas, Nachomamma8, Thor665, Kami of Lunacy, Zen_Soul, HookerPunch
The deadline is May 9, 18 days from now.
I am the worst scum player and I have all the tells.
So you read your role PM before you made your new account? If so, then...why didn't you just send your role PM to yourself?
What's the relevance of the new name as it pertains to your alignment? Walk me through it.
Iso is 100% town in every game.

Ced is more scummy because his posts have a certain game-avoiding quality, he's a good kid, he's going to have to lie, you know it's not easy.
Ced - fate doesn't need my forgiveness, he was scum last game so his turning on me was what he had to do, besides we won and I didn't get lynched, so it was all good. It was a joke referring to him falling off his horse and mixing me up with someone else.
Fate - lol <3.
look at me buddying alreadyDgb - are you serious with the real life tell? I'd appreciate it of I'm going to be scum read for my first post it's something more along the lines of she's already trying to blatantly emotionally manipulate people by referencing a bad mental state. That at least makes me sound a bit more dashing (can girls be dashing? If not, think of the female equivalent for dashing and replace it there) than some dreary rl excuse tell. Me need a break from mafia has been building for some time and is pretty evident if you look at the last two pages of the last crosstown game including my out Saturday night because I needed a break. I've declined invitations to play the past few weeks, asked nacho to hydra with me then Saturday told him I couldn't because I need a break. I don't *want* to be playing mafia right now. Nobody will want me playing mafia right now. I've just been involved in the most acerbic, hostile and vitriolic games lately, and yes part of the fault is mine because I react to baiting, insults and attacks and maybe I shouldn't, but what this boils down to is me not wanting anything to do with mafia right now. HOWEVER, this game has been waiting to go forever, and I'm not going to make them look for a replacement seeing as how the mod didn't know I outed, but idont think that giving me some understanding for like a week will kill anyone. It's not like I'm a day one scum hunting god anyway, my best attribute is to look town. If you want to lynch me because I admitted that I don't have the mental energy for mafia right now when I could have easily just went v/la, then be my guest, it also achieves underlying desire of mine not to play too.
Why are you hyperaware of what people called you scummy for in the last games, Kami, if you didn't change that up in the last game? More importantly: If you can make a post that says 'ced is scum', why do you feel like you would be throwing your vote around? Is that not a reason to keep your vote in one spot, or is your read not firm enough? If the latter, then I really MUST know what makes ced scummier than Tammy in your eyes.

I mean it's almost like I didn't say in MY FIRST ******* POST I CAN'T DEAL WITH MAFIA RIGHT NOW AND I NEED A BREAK. I hope you're ******* town ISO, I really do because if you're scum and taking advantage of someone who is kind frankly literally telling you I can't handle this right now and I NEED A ******* BREAK, then I have no words.
Why is it that Taredas was the only one who could even understand where I might be coming from? Gonna call him town for that, just because he seems to remember humans are playing this stupid game.
Oh wait no she's town holy ****
Vote: Hooker Punch
I was sooo hoping I would win the award for 'first person to break down' this time, Tammy.
So I'm going to assume Nacho, Tar and Tammy are town so I can have a townblock of all my friends.
Either way, we're all gonna burn
Either way, we're all gonna burn
I'm not "hyperaware" I had a vague recollection that was triggered when you brought it up. I'm incorrigible anyway.
I'm just not in the mood to vote yet. I'll vote when I have a few more reads.
I find ced game-avoidance a more convincing tell than Tammy's real life excuses. Tammy is pretty transparent, I'll get an accurate read of her soon enough.
Does anyone else smell cross-bus'ing?
Either way, we're all gonna burn
It wasn't going to be me, hence the I'm taking a break, but I'm a masochist and I should stay away. I'll try to do better about this break thing going forward from here.
<3 I don't remember anything you need to apologize for; I've always liked playing with you but thank you
*sniffs the air, checks role pm*
Nope that's definitely not what's happening, though I'll be interested to see if anyone else sees what I'm seeing.
Also, gods I like this board so much better than the last one.

TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE
Shall we take that as an admission?
This is bad. You should be ashamed, and mail in your concession now.
Yes, I'm scum. You may now continue to trust me. Blindly and unswervingly. What could go wrong? *steepled fingers*
Town
TooOOOOown. To-to-to-to-totowntowntown.
Hello? You must be the token bad player?
Hmm. I wonder whether playing mafia while watching House reruns affects my posting style. Hrrm.
Did I mention this player is insanely town yet? Ok. Glad we're clear on that.
This guy gets it. Also, seems town.
Have we cleared enough people to begin POE yet?
Also, Iso, you may want to learn from my past mistakes and not push Tammy too hard. For one, she's obv-town, and for two, just because you're opposite alignments doesn't make it ok.
Someday when we get enough girls to play mafia, I'll be able to read them more reliably, but up till now they've defied a lot of my normal analysis style. So far as I can tell, women lie in roughly the same fashion as men, but they don't always go about being a townie the same way. Does this sound vaguely sexist? Yes, this sounds vaguely sexist. Posting!
Don't interfere.

vote Iso
Don't buy it.
Azrael: Your case is preposterous.
Iso: Shhhhh, you're messing with my cunning subterfuge to gain reactions!
Azrael: Cunning? Subterfuge?
If it were cunning, well - it just isn't cunning, so we can cross that off the list. It's a really blunt instrument, to the point that it looks to me like carelessness, or possibly show-boating for credentials, take your pick. If it were meant as subterfuge to gains reactions from an early wagon, well, that latest post puts a dagger right in the heart of any possible benefit from a townie perspective. Reads much more like a combination of A) annoyance at being called out early B) wanting to take credit for being sneaky and townish C)fear/adversarial instinct. I read that, and I see "fight or flight" plastered all over it. Happy with the vote.
