Askthepizzaguy Mafia
17 players
https://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb225/askthepizzaguy/pizzapizza.jpg
Game set-up:
3 Mafia
14 Town
Deviation from vanilla games:
Each player begins the game with 100 credits.
In order to vote, you must place a bet that a certain player is guilty and must be lynched. ("wager")
You're allowed to wager between 1 credit and all your remaining credits.
Whoever has the most total credits wagered against them at the end of the round is lynched. (Think of each credit as one "vote")
If the person lynched is guilty, those credits are returned to the players who voted for that person.
If the person you wager money on is innocent, you lose those credits.
If your candidate you wagered on is not lynched, you lose those credits.
No Lynch and Abstain are not allowed. (You must wager 1 credit per round, or you lose automatically)
There are no mafia roles other than standard mafia.
The mafia are collectively allowed to murder once per night. It costs them nothing to do so.
There are no townie roles other than standard townie, except:
Each townie is allowed to, at night, spend 30 credits defending themselves from murder, or 40 credits defending someone else from murder.
This means defensive actions are possible, albeit extremely expensive.
You are not allowed to transfer credits to anyone.
You are allowed to add credits to your existing wager.
You are allowed to remove credits from your existing wager.
You're allowed to remove your wager altogether and place a new bet on someone else.
oh, one more thing:
If you are ever reduced to zero credits remaining, at any time, Askthepizzaguy bursts into the room and shoots you with his tommy gun.
Each vote must be placed carefully, and the amount of credits wagered must be thought about very carefully.
This makes for some unusual voting dynamics, and different scumtells than usual. People placing small wagers might be thought of as scummy. People who make sure their wagers come out on top might be thought of as scummy. Players who aim for that happy middle ground might be thought of as scummy.... who knows? Scumbags might try to spare themselves at the last minute by adding a lot to their wager. Townies might try to override that at the last minute, too. If this happens to be an innocent being lynched, with high wagers placed against that player, the town can be collectively devastated and unable to defeat the mafia. If the mafia starts off with 300 collective "votes" and the town starts off with 1400 collective "votes" then the town should be able to win, or they will be the ones who shot themselves in the foot. All that needs to happen is the right suspects need to die, and there needs to be enough being wagered to out-bet the mafia if they try to spare themselves.
Obviously the clock will be very important. :laugh4: And I will be merciless with the clock. The game will be very challenging, for both the town and the mafia.
Does this sound interesting?
