    Default Choose Your Own Adventure Mafia [Concluded]

    Hello, everyone!

    This is a follow-up to my last game, Pirate Ninja Robot Zombie Mafia IN SPACE, in which I made an impromptu decision to allow the players choice over how the story unfolded throughout the course of the game.

    That decision turned out to be very popular, and I enjoyed as well, so I've decided to continue the style with a new game!

    This will for the most part be fairly-standard mafia, but for two changes:
    -At the start of the game there will be a Day 0, where you all vote on the theme of the game, from a choice of themes provided in a list.
    -Every Day phase after, there will be some sort of choice for you to make to progress the story.

    As for the rest of da rulez:
    -Private communication is allowed for living players.
    -Private and public reveals are allowed for living players.
    -Dead players may not reveal, and may not communicate privately
    -No screenshots, chatlogs, or tactics that break the spirit of the game, etc.
    -Vote: Abstain is allowed.
    -Vote: No Lynch is NOT allowed.
    -Votes may not be edited into posts.
    -Any players inactive for more than three day phases continuously or five day phases total are subject to the Wrath of INSERT_NAME_HERE. If outside circumstances are to blame, contact me beforehand and there may be a solution.
    -Have fun, obviously.

    Here is the list of themes at the moment. You may feel free to suggest your own theme with your sign-up post, and if I deem it workable I'll add it to the list:

    Themes:
    -Pirate Land (think Pirates of the Caribbean)
    -Western Land (think Cowboys and Indians)
    -Space Land (think SPACE. This might be a little redundant)
    -Mystery Land (think Indiana Jones)
    -Horror Land (think scary movies)
    -Magic Land (think Harry Potter)
    -Ocean Land (think deep-sea expeditions)
    -Cyber Land (think Tron)

    I'm looking for at least 20 players, but 30 would be great.

    So... everybody would be literally playing the mafia game via video-chat, as part of the story?

    That seems a little too meta, but it might work.

    I think about two themes I like:

    1. Lovercraftian (think Cthulu) - ancient monsters from other worlds, mad cultist, impending doom... I think it may be considered a sub-genre of horror, but a special one

    2. Cyberpunk (think Neuromancer, or Johny Mneomonic, or Blade Runner, or even Matrix to some degree) - near-future world, where corporations have almost absolute power, people are genetically or mechanicaly modified, virtual reality is important part of life, etc.

    no no just that all charaters are based on sitting in a big gym room on their computers, with roles made as so. (CS master hacker, AOE champion, N00B and so forth

    I think I could probably combine both of these into a single theme, if that's ok.

    I like both ideas; I just don't want to pin myself into a small area and stifle creativity.

    Cyberpunk seems very similar to what I have in mind for Cyber Land.

    If you were in the last game, you know exactly how much inspiration I took from the Cthulu mythos. Lovecraft-type monsters will feature prominently in either the Horror or Space themes, so I don't think I need a separate category.

    Absolutely not.

    You know, bronies wouldn't be nearly as annoying if they weren't always telling everyone how much they love a show about magical ponies targeted at young girls and how you should really try watching it.

    Cyberpunk would be good. If going for unusual stacking, add the horror theme. The random monster attacks are what broke the goverment, even if the attacks are contained enough to stopped being city wide threats, but after the cyberdemon attack on the headquaters of MegaCorp inc, things has turned for the worse yet again...
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
