[COMPLETE] Insomniac Mafia - SCUM/3P WIN

[speedchuck]

Welcome to

INSOMNIAC MAFIA!

Your average run-of-the-mill mafia game has all players go to sleep at night. What a waste of time! Who can sleep when there are savage mafia killers running about? When night comes, who could lie in their bed and soundly sleep through the murders? Not I!
Night will come, and the sleepless townsfolk will all visit each other, and comfort each other, banding together against the mafia threat!
This setup is a closed setup, with one guarantee and one extra rule.

GUARANTEE: ALL PLAYERS HAVE THE ABILITY TO VISIT SOMEONE AT NIGHT
Extra rule: If two players visit each other in the same night, they get a private chat the next day.

So... Who wants to play?

RULES HERE (stolen from other people)

1. Massclaims (Large numbers of players revealing their roles at once) is highly unadvised. Such claims will likely not help, and it tends to suck all the fun out of the game. Really bad instances of this will result in horrific punishments which can instill fear into even the most stalwart of hearts. Don't massclaim, okay.
2. Flavorclaiming will not save you and is also discouraged because meta.
3. Days will be 120 hours long (5 days) (with the exception of the first day, which will be 6 days) and nights will be 48 hours long (2 days). Extensions may be granted in specific scenarios. Even if the day has not been announced over, DO NOT POST PAST DEADLINE. The state at deadline is the state at which the day ends.
4. When casting lynch votes, please bold or color your votes. Heck, do both.
5. All player-to-moderator communication should be done through provided Quicktopics, which are controlled discussions.
6. Don't copy/paste from Quicktopics, this threatens game stability and may be treated as cheating action. Which is punishable in bad ways.
7. And don't share quicktopics with others.
8. And keep game-sensitive details inside the game, please.
9. While you're at it, refrain from editing or deleting posts.
10. Death will grant you one spoilered "bluh" post, which may not contain game-relevant information.
11. Do not post during the night phase.
12. Day Activation / "Karkat" Rule 1: In the event a day activation is claimed (someone using a role power in the day), assume day has ended and it is nighttime. Game will resume once I have intervened and resolved the action.
13. Day Activation / "Karkat" Rule 2: Faking day activations is strictly forbidden and punishable by moderator kill.
14. Refrain from ciphering or concealing posts. Also avoid whiting out text, that's really annoying.
15. Maintain a reasonable level of activity (minimum of one post per day). Replacement will be used for players who fail to post for a 72-hour timespan, with a prod 48 hours into that.
16. Flavor WILL NOT SAVE YOU. The mafia has access to the town wincon.
17. Please, this is a game. Take it easy, play to have fun, but play to win! We all want to have fun. Remember that.
18. Guarantees: This setup involves no cults, jesters, obliterators, quicktopic spying, mod bastardry, alignment-changing, or game-ending third party win conditions.

Setup looked over by pE and Amos

[dichotomousCreator]

One mafia slot, please!

(/in)

[GenetiXientist]

Screw it, I'm in.

[Reyweld]

Replacement, it is me.

[Sotek]

huh.

[phantomEclipse]

Oh and in case im needed, hello world

I am the co-mod for the wonderful setup

Staying awake with all this coke. Er herm, coca-cola that is.

It'll be good to join if you would enjoy a smaller-fasterish game

[speedchuck]

I've been planning to do this for about a year. Looking forwards to it!

[Acionyx]

I'll in

[speedchuck]

If anyone has stipulations on when I need to run this, let me know while signing up. I can run it very soon, or what for the end of CH4, or whatever.

[icanhasdonut]

i'll play provided speedchuck is a mod in this game

[speedchuck]

I am flattered. :)

[speedchuck]

Based on recent talk in the mafia forum, I have rebalanced the game. I now only need 11 players to run it. 14 or 17 player would work as well.

After further talks, have changed my mind. 12 it is.

[Palamedes]

Sure why not I'm interested.

[speedchuck]

Since this is a small game, I'll probably run it as soon as it fills up.

Only need six more!

[Vancho1]

Hell, might as well. in

[speedchuck]

On another note, going to be using an experimental mechanic I've seen used once or twice. Shown is a quote from the Adventure Time Mafia.

"On N1, the scumteam may choose to exchange any one of the roles that are given to them. What this essentially means is that the scum team may exchange their role with another scum teammate, living or dead, before any actions occur N1. Whether or not the scum team chooses to take advantage of this opportunity, their roles will be locked in once the N1 actions are taken for account. Any roles that perform actions on the scumteam during D1 will not receive any role-based information should such a role exist. If a scum player dies D1, they will appear as Vanilla Scum but their role will still be up for grabs as part of the scum role pool N1. Naturally, a single scum player cannot have more than one role."

There are no lynchproof roles.
There are no roles that can affect this on Day One.

[speedchuck]

I had the setup looked over and it was suggested that I add another player for balance, so now we have a thirteen person game. There are also a couple of other games that need sign-ups, of course, but if we concentrate efforts on any one of them, we could get a game going.

[Crazed Cat]

I'm IIN!

[The Idea Master]

This looks fun I'm in.

[Nova]

SK or feed

[Druplesnubb]

Sure, I'll join.

[speedchuck]

I mean, yeah, I'll still run this. Nova, that was a sign-up, right?

[Nova]

Yes

[phantomEclipse]

I'm trying to snag us some people in the absence of ours.

[The Other Guy]

In

Did you miss me?

...

actually no don't answer that

[amosmyn]

Just going to say while I did briefly look over this setup I have not actually checked whether or not it will actually work in practice; this is not a standard game and is somewhat experimental in nature.

Hey, I never said is was approved by you. But yes, this. If this is not your cup of tea, fair warning. It's not winefia levels of 'what', but it is untested. If that is your cup of tea, then drink it! It has a looooooot of caffeine in it.

[TryTryAgain]

Lets see, only 2 more people needed... might as well ruin this game to inactiveness. JK, but don't expect me to be the best, I'm still new to this whole mafia thing, so if you could give me pointers, that would be appreciated

[Nova]

Vote for me and everyone will like you

Also this is also a helpful guide

And in general:

-Town looking for scum should look for people who contradict themselves, try to stay alive instead of hunt scum and aren't active (in the posting sense and in the sense of being in thread but not trying to push the game forward)

-Scum should try to fake the above, obviously. They should also be cautious with bussing and participate in discussion enough that town doesn't only end up talking to (and trusting) each other.

[icanhasdonut]

alternatively just nk acio and no one else will notice

[Granolaman]

I've gotten ahold of some free time; I can join this. Hope everyone's still around.

Confirmation Messages sent!

The Idea Master, you need to confirm your interest and give my a way to contact you if you want to play. Your personal messaging system is disabled.

Replacements still needed!

[Acionyx]

Confirming interest

[Vancho1]

It's been a while since I've played Mafia, but I'm still in.

[Nova]

Confirming I will still feed if I don't get SK

[phantomEclipse]

Confirm interest

Edit: oh right I'm just co-hosting or w/e jk

[speedchuck]

Ten confirmed. I'm willing to wait a bit, but we might need some replacements anyways.

[The Idea Master]

Confirming interest. Sorry about the PM thing, it should be enabled now.

[Crazed Cat]

Can confirm I do want to play.
I have my chocolate bars ready.

[speedchuck]

Only one left to confirm! Any replacements?

[Nova]

If this starts any time this weekend I may be a little quiet at first, goin' out-of-state

[TryTryAgain]

Sorry about me not posting, I've been having some real life issues, and things are only starting to get better. I'd confirm my interest, but i'm not 100% sure I'll have to time to actually play...

I should have enough time, as things have started to settle down, but I might disappear for a bit randomly. While I don't expect this to happen, it's a possibility. Mark me down as a yes.

I'll tell you if I have any issues

[Coldblooded]

I'll sign up as a last minute replacement just in case you still need another player to start the game.

[speedchuck]

Coldblooded has replaced The Other Guy!

That's thirteen confirmed, folks. Commence the consumption of caffeine.

[The Idea Master]

Just a heads up, I'm not going to be here tomorrow. I'm an Illinois election judge.

[speedchuck]

Role PMs sent! If you have any questions (or even if you don't), please post in the QT so that I know you have it!

If you did not get a role PM, PM me.

[phantomEclipse]

Hello everyone, as your Co-Host/Helper for this game, Any moderator messages from me will appear as being bolder and baby blue.

I really hope this doesn't end up being the last game of Mafia we all ever play on CPI (what with our activity levels recently) but I'm excited, to say the least, to be helping out!


Good luck and have fun.

[GenetiXientist]

oh crap I forgot to confirm in this thread, yeah I'm here
