This is a basic mafia game for everyone, but mainly to help newbies learn how to play. F11 really just wasn't enough because it was only restricted to 9 players, so OneOfTheDragon suggested that I just have a basic Mafia game with masic roles. This will be much like the first Mafia game (which was modded by Vox Imperatoris), except about twice as big. This is gonna be better than Nickrole.
Basic Rules:
Spoiler:
Hello everyone! Mafia, also known as Werewolf (to infidels, we shall not speak of them), is a game originating in real life, but adapted for a forum setting. Basically, you have a small village of innocent people, but hidden among them is a group of nasty mafiosos, whose sole goal is to have at least 50% of the population belong to their organization so that they can control the lynch-votes. Since they cannot recruit people, the only way to achieve this is bloody murder, but not more than one per night. The rest of the town uses their deductive abilities, along with some special roles, to find these infiltrators and lynch them.
Lynch Voting: xkcd Village is a lawless place, and the only form of justice is the old-fashioned lynch mob. Every "day" (this will be explained shortly), the town chooses a member to hang with a simple majority vote. For the more peaceful towns , "no lynch" is also a valid vote. After the mob has strung up the citizen, his house will be investigated overnight (it would seem reasonable to do that before the hanging, no?) and it will be announced if the town hanged a member of the mafia or an innocent townie. There are no "takebacks", once a majority vote has been reached, even for one minute, the "day" is over and the night begins.
You must bold your vote and place it on a separate line for it to my fault if I miss it and therefore do not count it in the official tally. Example: I think Vox Imperatoris is dirty mafia scum because he said he was the cop, then later said he was the doctor. NB: That would be really stupid, don't do something like that.

I've opted out of most of my mafia games, so I'm only in Rookie invitational at the moment. If someone doesn't turn up or drops out, shoot me a PM and I'll fill the spot.

I'm glad a few more newbies finally signed up. For a while there, it was looking like there'd be maybe three of us. Which would've been workable, I guess, but a little awkward...
Me Rodan and Babam had the best three-man game ever. I vote for Babam, Babam votes for me and we spend ages trying to convince Rodan to vote for each other. Turned out good in the end, and this is why you never leave Babam alive past the first day.
Would it make sense to split into two games? We have 24 players and 3 mods... seems like that's pretty close to enough.
