Turnabout Mafioso [Concluded]

Quote:
This is Keiko Koike, live from the DeLaude Hotel, where the press are gathering for a big announcement from the police regarding alleged gang activity here earlier today.
Little seems to have been said thus far, but as far as Five Live News understands the situation, there has been not one, but two murders in the Statesman's Suite!
Wait... here comes one of the police now... hey! HEY, DETECTIVE!
Quote:
Yeah, pal, I know what you're all sayin'. There's two dead guys upstairs and it's a real bloodbath.
And you know what, pal? This time ol' Gumshoe won't be caught out! Wohohohoho... we've got a solid suspect this time; Madame Elizé Da Silva!
The Game
Participate in a courtroom drama as you try to get to the bottom of the State vs. Da Silva trial, a case where all the evidence points to the defendant but the witnesses say differently!
- Can the city's crime organisation kill the witnesses and ensure the true criminal remains free?
- Will the Prosecution and Defense work together to learn the truth, or try to outdo one another?
- And more importantly, will Gumshoe ever learn to shave?
Rules
The rules are simple:
- The criminal is permitted one kill per evening, and must eliminate three of the four witnesses to the crime to ensure Da Silva is found guilty.
- Both the Prosecution and the Defense need to uncover the true story behind the trial, with varied narrative outcomes dependent on their cooperation and survival or lack thereof.
- As with the Ace Attorney games, there is a limit to the number of days the trial can continue for; should this limit be reached, the Judge will make a decision himself.
- Should the either the Defense or Prosecution be attacked during the night or lynched during the day, the player is out of the game, but a replacement character will be introduced for narrative reasons. Should both be incapacitated, it falls to the witnesses to bring justice to the court. No calling this trial off!
- The mafia wins if they kill/lynch three of the four witnesses.
- The town (everyone else) wins if the mafia is found.
- The Defense and/or Prosecution will recieve a special 'victory' if they are still alive at the end too.
Phases will last for 24 hours, give or take depending on real-life commitments.
The game begins with a Night Phase. Voting occurs during Day Phase, whereby the person with the greatest number of votes is called to the stand and there will be a narrative piece regarding the character they're playing. Voting is as standard (vote: X and unvote, vote: X). Abstaining and No Voting are allowed.
All talking must take part in this thread unless you have been provided with a QuickTopic link in your Role PM, whereby you are permitted to talk there. The arrested/dead are permitted to talk.
Copy/Pasting Role PMs, QuickTopic posts/links or anything else is prohibited, but that goes without saying.

Re: Turnabout Mafioso (Mini-Mafia Game)
I think Gumshoe looks like Matt.

Re: Turnabout Mafioso (Mini-Mafia Game)
Yeah... what Gumshoe said ^

Re: Turnabout Mafioso (Mini-Mafia Game)
Also, In. Though, I don't know what to think of the crazy .gifs. Where did you get them from?
This is what Phoenix Wright has to say about this game.

Re: Turnabout Mafioso (Mini-Mafia Game)
You don't like them?
There're animated rips from the game series themselves; they're taken from the fantastic Court Records fansite, whereby anyone is free to use them as long as they're not hotlinked directly from the site.
So, before I forget, many thanks to Court Records for the images and Capcom for the awesome characters and world they've created.

This case is pretty open-and-shut; in the early evening of November 4th, Madame Da Silva murdered the Ducall family. All five pieces of evidence, from the murder weapon itself to the cigarette ashes in the Stateman's Suite, point to her. There is no doub-

End of Night Zero
Listen to this while reading:
https://i884.photobucket.com/albums/...a87/Cellar.png
Inside the DeLaude Hotel's wine cellar, 9:18pm, 8th December 2013.
Gerard Duquesne, long-serving butler at the DeLaude Hotel, is busy rummaging around the wine stacks for a particular vintage:
https://i884.photobucket.com/albums/...87/Bellboy.gif
Quote:
I don't think we even have a '83 Sauvignon... he shall have to settle for a '91.
The gentle clinking of green-hued glass masks the footfalls of the older gentleman who has joined him in the cellar. The man speaks, his voice crisp with an upper-class British accent:
https://i884.photobucket.com/albums/...lboyKiller.gif
Quote:
My dear boy... you ought to be more careful where you go alone in these dark times...
The man discards his tray, raising a pistol at Duquesne; in a single, muffled gunshot, the bellboy crumples to the floor before he could even turn around. The gentlemanly assassin departs as silently as he came, closing the cellar behind him.

Captain Blackadder, AKA Gerard Duquesne, is now dead.

Re: Turnabout Mafioso (Mini-Mafia Game)
I say call Centurion1 to the stand.
-
Re: Turnabout Mafioso (Mini-Mafia Game)
You have to vote in the standard format of vote: X or unvote, vote: X.
The calling to the stand is merely a narrative thing; you're essentially voting as you do in a normal mafia game.
And thanks for voting, Beskar, had a feeling people might've forgotten my game :<

Re: Turnabout Mafioso (Mini-Mafia Game)
Ohh my only mafia game I am in right now and I die first round. Ohh well

Re: Turnabout Mafioso (Mini-Mafia Game)
If this game is a success and people like it and rate it highly, then I'll make more for certain. I'd like to perfect the rules and stuff before I try to upgrade it to a bigger game whereby the time spent on the narrative and such can be better utilised.
Many thanks for signing up though, and I'm sorry you were killed so soon. :<

Honestly I have no real reason. Which reminds me, are we allowed to vote No lynch? I assume no because it ain't in the rules anywhere.

Re: Turnabout Mafioso (Mini-Mafia Game)
always vote split because split is a conniving trickster.

You are permitted to vote: no lynch, yes.
I amended the rules because I realised I would screw the town over if they got their lynch wrong; the killer has two witnesses left to get, so could end the game before the next day phase otherwise.
It should balance out my indiscrepancies for the time-being.
