GRCade Mafia
Hi All.
Welcome to my Mafia game. I've been saying I'd run one for a long time, but I've never got around to it. It'll be a smaller game, but should happen more often as smaller games burn people out less.
------------------------
How do I play Mafia?
------------------------
------------------------------
Is it going to be this basic?
------------------------------
Not necessarily. Mafia at it's core is very basic. Mafia vs Town, but as the game has evolved more and more roles have emerged; They can all have huge impacts on the games and how they play.
The most basic of roles outside of Townie which will occur in this game is the Cop. The Cop, like the town doesn't start knowing the allignmments of any other player, but each night phase they have the ability to investigate a player and the game-runner (myself) will then let them know if the player is Guilty or Innocent. This seems simple enough, right? Guilty is Mafia and Innocent is Town. Not necessarily. This is where the various roles come into play and you'll find more about the roles when we start up the first game.

Please post in the thread with your normal forum username (not christmassy) and your timezone. I will put up the thread for the first game tomorrow with the story. Remember, the first game will be 16 players maximum.

Mafia is a game of deduction and deception. Invented in 1986 as Ма́фия in the U.S.S.R. by Dmitry Davidoff, mafia is a party-game with a rather morbid turn. In mafia's most basic form, players are assigned by the game-runner to one of two alignments: the majority to the Town, and the minority to the Mafia (known as the Werewolves in some versions). If a player is assigned to the Town, they know only their own alignment. If a player is assigned to the Mafia, they know the alignments of the other players assigned to the Mafia too. The alignment of everyone else remains a mystery.
The game alternates between a Day Phase and a Night Phase. During the Day Phase, all living players discuss and vote on who will be lynched. When the majority vote for a player, that player is lynched and are dead and out of the game. The game then enters the Night Phase, where the Mafia discuss and choose a kill, informing the game-runner when they've done so. The game-runner then starts the next Day Phase and announces which player was killed.

One man should not have this much power in this game. Luckily I'm not an ordinary man.
