Batman Mafia

batman_3_the_dark_knight_rises-1920x1200

Lets play a small game of classic Mafia. I'll start with 10 people this time around because couple of years back we had 20 player mafia game here and a lot of people dropped out in between. Lets see how this one goes.

Roles

  • In its simplest form, Mafia consists of two sides: the Mafia, and the Town. The Mafia's goal is to kill the innocents, while the Town's goal is to kill the Mafia.
  • There are total 10 players in this game.
  • 3 Ordinary Citizens of Gotham- They only have voting rights. They cannot communicate with each other privately. They do not know each other's identity.
  • Commissioner Gordon - Each Night, he can investigate one player (by sending their name to the Moderator), and the Moderator will tell them whether that player is Mafia or not.
  • Fox - Each Night, the Fox can choose one player to protect (by sending their name to the Moderator). If the Mafia (or anyone else) tries to kill that player, that kill will be prevented.

  • Robin - Each Night, the he can choose a player. That player will be prevented from using their Night choice, if they have one. This can work in in favour of any faction.

  • Batman - Each Night, the Vigilante may kill another player (by sending their name to the Moderator).

  • Joker - The Joker, may kill another player each Night (by sending their name to the Moderator). It will be a surprise what Joker can do or will do. ;) However, the Joker is not on the Town's side or the Mafia's side. He wins when everyone else is dead.

  • Talia Al Ghul and Bane - They can make the factional kill in the night and vote in day time. They can speak with each other as they know each others identity..

Roles Explained in detail :

 

 

 

 

Talia Al Ghul and Bane:

During the day, try to blend in with the normal Townies, and attempt to get someone lynched.

 

During the NIGHT cycle ONLY, you may talk with your fellow Mafia (via PM) and choose another player in the town to kill that night.
You may communicate privately with your fellow Mafia up until the game thread is opened. Once the game begins, all outside communication must cease until the night cycle.

You win when the number of Mafia equals or exceeds the number of remaining Town players, whether you survive to the end or not.

Apart from special abilities, your voice and vote are powerful weapons in their own right. Use them to your best advantage!
At no time may you privately communicate with any other player.

You win when all the Mafia players are gone, whether you survive to the end or not.

 

 

3 Ordinary Citizens of Gotham:

The game goes through two phases, the 'night' phase and the 'day' phase. During the 'day' phase all discussion will happen and try to figure out who is in what role. During the daytime period voting will occur for the lynching to occur. Every player is allowed to vote in this and once all players have voted and a majority is reached, the player with the most votes will by lynched and his role will be revealed to the members.

During the night period, if you have a night time role you can perform this role through PM to me and you will find out the result of your night time action as day breaks either in the thread or via PM if it is something secret. The night time period will occur when a majority vote has been undertaken, the thread will then be closed for discussion untill the day has broken.

Remember discussion may only take place in the thread unless your role allows you to converse via pm with a teammate.

How To Play

  • At the beginning of the game, the Moderator will secretly send everyone their role. The Mafia will know each other, while (in the basic game) everyone else will only know their own role.

    The game has two phases, the first of which is Day. During Day, the Town must choose someone to Lynch; they are trying to eliminate the Mafia, but the Mafia can lead them astray by casting suspicion elsewhere. Generally, players will vote for someone they think is Mafia (the Mafia will vote so that they seem to be doing this as well, and might even vote for each other to confuse the Town); when a player gets a majority of the votes, they are lynched. Their role is revealed by the Moderator, and it becomes Night.

    During the Night, the thread is locked and no one can talk publicly. The Mafia, however, can speak to each other privately to plot strategy and decide who to murder before the next Day begins. In this way, they can silence members of the Town who are threats to them. At the end of the Night, the murder is carried out and another Day begins. In effect, the Town gets to kill someone, and then the Mafia gets to kill someone.

    The game alternates between Day and Night until either the Mafia are eliminated, or the Mafia have killed everyone else (or nothing can prevent the same).

  • Ideally Day will last for 24 hours but i might extend it under some circumstances. While night will last for 12 hours.

Register by posting below. Roles will be distributed randomly once 10 players have registered.

Rules

1) Don't quote any communication you receive from me . Paraphrase it.
2) This game will have your alignment revealed on death. role wont be revealed.
3) Do not kill anyone based on personal bias. Try to be impartial.
4) No communication about the game outside of this thread unless your PM says so. if someone contacts you, tell me. I'll 1) Modkill them and 2) try to get them banned from the next game at the very least. As well as that they'll be banned from all my games in the future.
5) Don't piss me off :bandit: .
6) This game is complicated. But not as complicated as you think. Learn to think outside the box and play outside the norm. Be different.
7) NO GHOSTS. You will not post once you're dead. If you do, it's meant to have nothing about the game proceedings at that point. No communicating and advising outside the thread once your dead is preferred too.
8) Don't post in white text. Also, be a sportsman. Dont use white text - that is a ridiculously cheap Mafia tactic and rarely used on forum-based Mafia games. Remember, logic/brains/wit > white text/cheap stuff.
9) Once you're dead, you can't win. Period. Even if your alignment wins the games, only the surviving players actually win. The aim of Mafia is survival. There will be luck involved too, but good players usually make their own fate in this game.
10) Night posts may contain clues to how many factions are there and if you're a variant of a role/have a hidden factor to your role. Those with roles should keep this in mind.
11) Important one. Before anyone roleclaims, you need to have at least 50% of the votes required to be lynched on you. Say Arch-0n was playing and he roleclaimed before that, he'd be modkilled.
12) If there is no majority after everyone has voted, a 10 hour penultimate time would start. Anyone can change their vote in that time but even after those 10 hours there is no majority then nobody will be killed hat day and night would be started
13)Editing the post is not allowed. It is strictly banned. Do not edit you post under any circumstance. If you wanna post something you forgot, use a new post.

14) Remember rule number 7 :rulez:

15) Have fun and play to win.

Note: Read all the rules carefully, it takes just 5 minutes. Else you'll regret later if you accidentally break any rule

I play a lot of mafia online and there are two rules I would like to discuss.

 

1st the role claiming one, its extremely important that inspectors claim when they get a good hit or they claim to get the protector, remember it also eliminates one person that the mafia might waste their kill on. Otherwise what is the point of the inspector ?

 

2ndly the no PMs rule. Its also important that if the inspector finds a clean person he can ask the PRs(Power roles) to PM him.

 

Again the mafia can fake roleclaim and even fake a PM.

 

These two rules take out a lot of tactics and add a lot more luck to the game IMO.

 

BTW, if I become mafia this will be fun :devil:

I agree. Roleclaiming would be fun but it would take discussion out of the game as soon as someone with one or two votes on him roleclaims. It would be interesting to see how inspector would convince the others when he had a hit without claiming the role. He should not even paraphrase his role. This can lead to some nice discussions and also lead him in suspicion. So he will get some lynch votes on him and eventually he would have to claim the role. So it would be completely upto the cop how he plays.

There is strictly no PM for Townies as they are in majority while there are just 2 mafias. I just modified the rule regarding the death. If someone dies only his alignment would be revealed not the role. This would leave the room open for more fake roleclaims and discussion.
