Shaolin temple. Dedicated to the development of deadly martial arts ability. Recently however some impostors have infiltrated the temple and have begun killing of the inhabitants. The council has therefore decided that each day one monk will be thrown off the cliff, who it is will be decided by popular vote.

Also each day there will be a fight. Monks may challenge one another, a challenge will be chosen randomly and the fight will take place before nightfall. Each person has certain ratings in a rock paper scissors manner. The winner gains experience and the loser in incapacitated for a night (can't perform any role functions). There might be more than one fight, I haven't decided.

Each player starts with a certain amount of money. Money can be used to buy items from a store (armor, antidotes, weaponry, medicine etc). Some items are cheap and can be bought by individuals, others will require the townies to pool there money...hopefully choosing to give the money to another townie and not a mafioso. Mafia have money and can purchase items as well. They also get the money of whoever they kill. Players can also band together in groups of three to protect somebody. Players gain a certain amount of money each round they survive.

The townie pm will not by sent to anyone. It will be posted in the thread.

There will be other roles but I will not reveal these.

Screenshots, alternate accounts, and quoting pm's is not allowed. When claiming you may claim role, role name, and explain your function in your own words. The "no quoting pm's" rule applies to chat logs and pm's that players have sent to each other as well.

To be lynched a player must have 7 votes or a majority, whichever is smaller. To be lynched a player must have a certain number of votes, to be stated at the beginning of the day. Day will continue until someone is lynched. Once someone is lynched no unvotes will count. Night will last 24 hours but may be extended.

Players may not reveal anything after death. Nothing about role or about night actions or about any details not previously posted in the thread.

Role pm's going out. Will take a while.


Ok this is taking longer than I thought and I have to eat and I'm going to a movie. Might not be out till midnight.

Sasaki Kojiro
04-30-2007, 01:45
Haven't sent any pm's yet. Posting the townie pm in thread so it can't be used to determine who is townie and who isn't.

Townie pm:


Your name is *unique* *style*

*style* is your style of Kung Fu
Your starting Kung Fu score is *number*

Your primary goal is to lynch mafia by discussing with the other townies and voting for who you think is mafia.

Each day you may challenge any one player to a duel. Three duels will be randomly selected from all the challenges. When you make a challenge, pm me which style of Kung Fu you use (at first you will have to use your starting style). Dragon (Mui) style beats White Crane (Fujian) style beats Praying Mantis (Shui) style beats Dragon Style. If you style beats your opponents you get a three point bonus during the fight. Fights are not random, whoever has the higher score wins. The duels will take place during twilight (after lynch and before night). The write up will indicate how much better or worse the opponent was (barring any special role effect). If you win you get a permanent 2 point increase to your score. If you lose you can not perform any night action that night.

At night you may group up with other players (townie/mafia/special role) and protect someone for that night. Any attack against them will fail, unless one of your protection group is also killed. To protect someone you must send their name and the in-game names (not org usernames) of the people you will be protecting with. Names don’t indicate role in any way. If one of you does not send your pm, or sends with incorrect names, there will be no protection. You will not be informed if there is no protection. If you decide to protect you may not carry out any other night action. You will not be informed if your protection is successful (the assassin will see you guarding your target and not attack), however after 2 successful protections you will be informed and get to choose one of your number to become a doctor.

You also start with 20 gold. Each night you get 5 more gold. Gold may be used to purchase one item from the store each night. The item may be used that same night. You can also purchase Kung Fu lessons which take place during the day. You may gift your gold or purchased items to any other player at any time. Upon being lynched you may anonymously give it and anything you have purchased to a player of your choice. Upon being night killed all of your money and possessions will be taken by your killer.

As you night action you may choose to practice Kung Fu. This will add 1 point to your score. If you know someone with at least twice your score and they agree to train you, you can add 2 points (they get one point). You may purchase lessons from the Kung Fu teacher for 10 gold. This take place during the day so they do not interfere with your night action. You get two points or you can get 1 point + learn a style.

The mafia have three different ways in which they can kill you at night. The can kill you with weapons, poison, or Kung Fu. Certain items can be purchased which protect you from the first two, but no item can protect you from the 3rd. However if the mafia tries to attack you with it and you are better than them you will capture them.

Starting Kung Fu ability is randomly selected to be between 1 and 10.


General Rules:

No alternate accounts. No anonymous communication. No screenshots of out of thread material. No pm or chatlog quoting of any kind, not from me or anyone else.

Dead may not pm, may not discuss anything they ever pm’d or were pm’d, may not discuss night actions in any way. For example if a living person says “X is innocent, I successfully protected him along with deceased player Y, therefore you should vote Z” and Y comes to the thread and posts “I think you should vote for Z”, this is bad. Note that protecting a player doesn’t confirm their innocence so this would be a bad choice anyway. If you reveal to a player that you have “such and such awesome pro-town role” and you die that night, you can argue against them for in thread reasons, but make sure you don’t indicate that it has anything to do with your death. I reserve the right to prohibit someone from posting entirely if I feel they have too much information.

Keep a running tally of votes every time you vote.

Inactive players will be modkilled. You don’t have to vote but you do have to participate.

Each round I will set a number. This is the number of votes a player must have before they will be lynched. Day will not end until someone is lynched. Once this number is reached that person is dead (and all rules regarding dead people apply) and no amount of unvoting can change that. Roles and alignment will not be revealed upon death (players are lynched by being tossed off the cliff, hard to tell if a bloody smear is pro town or not).

You may vote no lynch but don’t bother abstaining.

Night will last at least 24 hours.

Invisibility mode is encouraged.

The setup is closed, but certain people know more about it than other people.

It is now Night One


The store is open:



Armored vest (40) 50 percent chance of protection against weapons.
Antidote (40) 50 percent chance of protection against poison. Unlimited use.
Blow gun + 1 poison dart (25) 25% chance success of killing target. One use.
Slingshot + 1 metal ball (25) 25% chance success of killing target. One use.
Prayer book (10) 10% chance of protecting from weapons. One protection.
Mystic Herbs (10) 10% chance against poisons. One protection.
Weak Poison (25) 25% chance success of killing target. Small vial. One use.
Crossbow+1 bolt (80) 100% starting chance of killing target. Shop owner is a shrewd businessman and won’t sell the bolts separately.
Deadly poison (80) 100% starting chance of killing target. One use.

The training grounds are also open. I suspect most everyone will want to perform a night action of some sort, so I need lots of pm's. I'll give you some time to get up to speed this first night.

Protection groups require 3 people sorry I forgot to mention it in the pm

@Sasaki: Can townies buy them?

If they are taken off the list mafia have to use Kung Fu :laugh4:

Do we want groups of vigilante townies running around killing suspicious players? Wouldn't that make it harder? Cuz townies are saying: "oh, i killed <Insert Player Name>, arent i a good townie?" or "Oops, I didn't know he was townie or pro-town, please forgive me..."

It would be better if we just stuck to protecting and lynches (cuz they have to be okayed by a large portion of the players)...

It seems very strange, ByzantineKnight, that you are requesting this removal of weaponry. Is this a highly-advanced cover-up story to try and show that you are not mafia by attempting to try weakening the mafia arsenal - henceforth placing yourself in the clear in the eyes of the town? Or is my mind too suspicious?

BlackAxe3001
04-30-2007, 20:54
You are too suspicious for this early in the game. I think everyone being able to use the weapons is good. Variety is a good thing. Besides, its only a 25% chance and you can't even buy them yet anyway.

Things to do at night:

Get +5 gold (no action)
Buy stuff from store (no action)
Join protection group (action)
Vigilante strike (action)
Mafia Kill (I assume it's an action, ? kills)

Things to do at day:
Declare duel (3 duels)
Get Kung Fu Training
Vote (1 lynch)

One question:
What happens with drawn Kung Fu values (after speciality schools are done)?

This is correct, but you may buy from store during day as well. You will get 5 gold at the dawn of day 1.

I don't understand what you mean by "drawn Kung fu values".

However, I think, I may have said too much now, and may be being way too suspicious, so, I will, leave my complex investigations and cross-examining of you alone, till I see something much more conclusive.

BTW, your tactics in CTDC were rather impressive, you certainly fooled me, lugi and Redleg with your attepted assistance of the vigilante group, really not participating within it at all. I really should have realised that you were mafia when Redleg informed me of your affiliations with CountArach who was later designated suspect mafia by Redleg/lugi. I will watch out for any repeat of tactics this time, and I suggest the rest of the town/pro-town remain alert too, so I recommend that you be aware.

So the purpose with the fights are to get better at Kung Fu and block someones night action?
No one ever dies in those fights?

Liang Mui was sitting on the temple rooves, waiting for the dawn. He had been waiting for the dawn for twenty days now. It had risen twenty times but that didn't stop him waiting. Another monk padded across the roof and sat down next to him.
'Why do you wait here every day?' Liang replied 'why don't you?'
'Because I'm a practical man.'
When dawn came Liang was hanging from the temple rooves, swinging by the neck from a belt that could have belonged to any monk. His assassin was long gone.

**************************

Meanwhile, Ni Shui stood near the eastern fountains with a look of incredulity. He had thought he heard the sound of two legs walking across the stone tiles. He peered into the field beyond but observed nothing. Ashamed that his senses had betrayed him, he turned about only to see a fellow monk, robed, reclined upon the ledge of the fountain. "ha, I thought I heard footsteps out there, did you hear nothing?" Ni inquired. "No, indeed I heard something; you have made the fountain cry, look how it bubbles", said the robed monk. Dumbfounded, Ni searched for a response: "With respect..." "No, without respect" interrupted the robed monk. "That is what you are. Don't you know that this fountain is for washing only in the morning, and not to be touched when in the shadow of the temple? Alas, now you have corrupted it for the others. Ni, it suffers me to do this but you must receive due punishment. Now turn around..." Ni hesitated, but his trusting nature eventually guided him and he slowly turned around, his eyes gazing at the ground and his fingertips walking nervously on his temple. "Look up! There is no reason to hold your head." said the robed monk. Ni raised his head and with a blank face awaited his punishment. Nothing came. He shifted his eyes, gazing into the forest beyond, but still nothing came. He heard nothing behind him. Another minute passed before he dared turn his head. Unfortunately, as he did it fell to the ground, severed by a clean sword stroke some minutes earlier by the robed monk. His body stood upright for a fraction of a second, blood bubbling from his neck, before it too toppled to the ground. The killer had long since been gone.

Monks may challenge one another, a challenge will be chosen randomly and the fight will take place before nightfall. Each person has certain ratings in a rock paper scissors manner. The winner gains experience and the loser in incapacitated for a night (can't perform any role functions).


Incapacitate : make unable to perform a certain action

It's not the same as dead, is it?

It seems very strange, ByzantineKnight, that you are requesting this removal of weaponry. Is this a highly-advanced cover-up story to try and show that you are not mafia by attempting to try weakening the mafia arsenal - henceforth placing yourself in the clear in the eyes of the town? Or is my mind too suspicious?


I would like to see a better answer from ByzantineKnight about why he wanted the items removed from the store. I happen not to believe the follow-up response by him to this question by Omanes.

The removal of the items from the store, plus the following responses does not seem to be a joke to me.

I have a few more questions..

Do the trainer have to have double points to train a style?Ok I might think of more..

My interpretation of this is, if you find a townie with 2x your rating, you can train with them at night time & get 2 points. This is free.

The Kung-fu Master is a day action & costs 10 gold. I just wonder whether the Master has been already assigned as a role, or whether is an NPC.

Bandwagoning: When you vote for someone purely because they have already received votes. Used by the mafia in Game II, but is now apt to get you executed.

... If you know someone with at least twice your score and they agree to train you, you can add 2 points (they get one point). You may purchase lessons from the Kung Fu teacher for 10 gold. This take place during the day so they do not interfere with your night action. You get two points or you can get 1 point + learn a style.

I guess it is ok to quote a public post..

Alright I see what you interpret here Hugh.
It could be this teacher is no one in particular and you just pm Sasaki that you will use 10 gold to train during the day... ?
I take it when you fight and you have multiple styles, you need to pm Sasaki with the style you intend to use?

And where's Ichigo? He's usually the one with the most posts in mafia games...?

Oh, and since we are using another voting system, maybe you should all hold in mind that one or two votes won't pressure anybody to talk. You'll need at least (The required number of votes to lynch) - 2 to put some real pressure on a player.

Voting for somebody because he is "bandwagoning" is not a good reason in this system. As Sigurd pointed out, a bandwagon is neccessary to obtain a lynching, so you can't put suspicion on a player because he tries helping the town in getting a suspect lynched.

So, to put some real pressure:

Unvote; Vote : ByzantineKnight

Mostly because of the sudden change of style compared to previous games. A decent explanation please.

You're right. But it seems like some players call putting a third or fourth vote on somebody, even with an explanation, "bandwagoning".

Erm, actually, he's wrong.

To 'bandwagon' is to join a growing campaign against one person for no good reason apart from the fact that there is already a campaign against them.

If we all just voted without any argument or explanation, the Mafia could more easily use it as an opportunity to hide & to get a free kill. So, to avoid being accused of 'bandwagonning', you should try & give your reasons for why someone should be lynched.


Voting for somebody because he is "bandwagoning" is not a good reason in this system. As Sigurd pointed out, a bandwagon is neccessary to obtain a lynching, so you can't put suspicion on a player because he tries helping the town in getting a suspect lynched.

This is wrong too. 'Bandwagoning', as explained above, is voting in a suspicious or unhelpful manner; a well-considered majority verdict is necessary for a lynching - there's a key difference between the two.

It's alright to think somebody's argument is good - you just need to explain why you think it's good.

As BK - noise at the beginning of the game is just noise. I don't think he's our man.

1. His timing. He may have been watching the thread for a bit before casting this vote.

2. His "safe" voting and language. Saying as little as possible is an oft-used mafia tactic, as is voting for the most suspicious players.

3. His mildly accusatory tone in subsequent posts. Mafia like to appear to be trying to identify scum without angering anyone too much.

I'm not buying the arguments against BK; they look faulty to me. Making ignorant-sounding comments is frequently jumped on as suspicious, but it's not actually what mafia usually do.

'Reason: Seems like a good tactic for a mafioso to just blatently say he is one, making people think that he isn't. It won't work on me.' - I don't think a Mafioso would have drawn attention to himself like that, to be honest. This could be 'pulling a Spartan' :gcinquisitive:. I don't think he's really mafia.

Yes. For the number of votes on Byzantine Knight, it was because he was acting kinda suspicious and the votes that were garnered were do so slowly. For tran, he got 7 votes in just 5 ot 6 hours which is pretty quick.

Of the 7 who voted for tran, discovery1, Orb, and Ichigo were kinda lurking which is kinda suspicious, but discovery1 is the most suspicious of them all given that he was the final voter and did not participate at all before. Orb got on early and had a half decent post that basically agreed with Ichigo making me doubt that he is mafia. Finally, Ichigo is pretty suspicous too given that he encouraged a bandwagon after he jumped on one.

Blackaxe and Caius jumped on the bandwagon, but Blackaxe is the most suspicious to me given that he voted and then unvoted Caius in less than 45min and then quickly jumped onto the tran bandwagon without any stated reason.

To me, the most likely players to be mafia given the votes for tran is discovery1, Ichigo, and Blackaxe

The fact remains, you are suspicious Ichigo for being one of the last people to vote Tran.

The mafia can easily take someone out at -1 from lynch, which is why you stop voting, and talk it out. Anyone who votes and causes them to be lynched, is immediately suspicious. You talk it over as a group, and decide if they are guilty enough to be lynched.
