Rules (These are 95% the same as the EB standard; deviations from the normal EB rules are struck-through)

1. Each player will be given a character to play, who will be aligned with either the Town or the Scum. To win the game, the Town must kill off all the Scum, while the Scum needs to outnumber the Town. Third-party (neutral) characters have their own win conditions as outlined in their roles.

2. Each day you will be able to vote to lynch a player. Voting is mandatory. Voting should be done in the following format; Vote: Character (Player). Similarly, unvoting is to be done in the format; Unvote: Character (Player). No other format will be accepted. A majority vote is required to lynch a player. Failure to vote will incur a vote penalty the following game day.

3. A game day will last a maximum of 72 hours. You may not vote in the first 24 hours. The day will end when a majority vote has been reached after 72 hours. After the day has been concluded, a night stage will commence, which will last 24 hours (or 48 hours if an emergency comes up). Night actions must be sent to the host in the first 20 hours of the night stage.

3.5. Players may not target the same player two nights in a row, and may not target themselves.

4. The alignment of lynched players, as well as those that died during the night, will be revealed at the beginning of the next day.

5. You may not quote or pretend to quote anything sent to you by the host via PM. That includes all the details of your character and role, as well as any night action results. Role claims and reporting of night action results are acceptable, but in your own words only. Do not attempt to use the structure of your role PM to your advantage.

6. Do not play the game outside the thread. Similarly, do not post out of character inside the thread. Game tactics and roles may only be discussed in the game thread or via PM with other players. Private discussion is done at your own risk and should be treated as part of the game.

7. If you are dead, you may not post in thread or discuss the game with any of the players. Any information you had becomes void, and may not be passed on.

8. You may not edit your posts.

9. You must post in every day thread.

10. If you encounter a problem or have a question, please contact the host via PM

11. Violation of the above rules will result in a 5 vote penalty vote penalty per every 4 living players against you, and death on your second offense.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay, I need to go to bed. Roles will go out tomorrow. In the meantime, why not start playing? Put your avatar on. Get in character. Your character is not the character of your avatar, but a person dressed as that character.

I will go over some fundamentals in the course of the game, but you can get a good idea of some here: http://www.eurobrick...3

In advance, I want to apologise if this ends up seeming like a budget game. I won't have a fantastic MOC or anything. I'll manage a fun game, but the main goal is to get some new players, and make sure they have the fundamentals. Basically, this is something I threw together in a very, very short span of time. Since the rules of a game like this are so simple, the LEGO stuff takes up way more time than the actual planning of it... And to be honest, I haven't sorted out my mini-figs from the last time I hosted a game a year ago. It's such a pain to find out what goes where.

Regardless, the essence of mafia is play, not LEGO.

For now, this is the best time to role-play. None of you have your allegiances, so you can honestly interact and 'be yourself' without arousing suspicion. Get a handle on being 'in character.' Role PMs should be out tomorrow night. It's near midnight here, and I work from 9 to 9 tomorrow, so I should be able to get them typed and sent before bed tomorrow night. Daddy's gotta put food on the table.

[Lind Whisperer]

"Hulk.

SMASH!"

He slammed the giant plastic fists together, in what to him was a deep, dramatic interpretation. To anyone else, it was neither deep nor dramatic and the only thing from his performance that could be interpreted was that he was drunk.

Apologies for not setting a background color to make it more easy to read, if anyone could enlighten me as to how to do that here, I will gladly change it.

[Lind Whisperer]

"Awesome costume, bro! hic Sweet hic pirate hat!"

[Captain Settle]

"Hi, I see you're Hulk and you're a pirate.”

"I'm Batman."

[Duvors]

"Hi, I'm new here, I came because my friends asked me but they haven't shown up for some reason... I hope this isn't some kind of joke, they like that kind of joke... I'm not even certain what this costume is supposed to be... hello?"

[Kintobor]

"Oh, I hope this doesn't get too violent, what with all those mafia movies I keep seeing commercials for."

[Lind Whisperer]

"I think you're hic dressed like one of those turtles from that hic show for like, four-year-olds, or whatever. I think it's hic about zombie samurais, or whatever, I don't watch it."

Ooc: Just for (hopefully obvious) reference, views, attitudes, and poor spelling/grammar expressed or exhibited by "Random Frat Boy in Hulk Costume" should not be interpreted as my own.

"Ummm... okayyyy... I'll just go... stand in the corner, over there... on the other side of the room."

[Pyrovisionary]

This should be fun, even though I haven't seen guardians of the galaxy...

This is the cosplay place right? Not... Like some kid's fancy dress party or anything? Only I can see two different types of Batman.

[Richila]

Beautifully green, she enters the room as though she owns the place. She notices the large, drunk, green man, but does not engage him. Instead, she enters the beginning movements of the Kata that she began learning as a child. For the first time in her life there is a cosplay that truly embraces her lifelong passion, martial arts. All of her experiences in life have led her to being Gamora; swiftly, gracefully she moves from form to form in a joyous but deadly dance.

[Pyrovisionary]

Is there a reason why everyone here is bloody green? I'm not being racist The raccoon sniggers but....

[Duvors]

"Uhhh... I don't think that we should talk about that, racisim... is not nice."

[Pyrovisionary]

"Uhhh... I don't think that we should talk about that, racisim... is not nice."

It's just banter, being green aint actually a race mate.

[jimmynick]

[Piratedave84]

[Pyrovisionary]

Go away pervert. Just because I'm dressed as a raccoon. Just... Ew.

[Piratedave84]

[Kintobor]

I should've realized it was going to be one of those parties. I hope everyone here's an adult, otherwise some of you are in for a scolding!

[Pyrovisionary]

ARRRGGHHH!!!

Don't even think about it.

[Duvors]

"I am suddenly... very glad that this... costume comes with a bo staff... even if it is... plastic."

Lesson one:

Mafia is not Heroica. Your post is what you are saying. When you say,

The guy says, "I'm the best at mafia."

That's your character, in game, speaking in third person. No need to describe your actions, no need for quotes. The role playing of mafia is a different beast than from Heroica.

[Scaevola]

Leia reporting in. You people ought to sober up!

(Note I will not be active tomorrow or the next day should the game commence between those days)
