Mafia VI: Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Return of the Mafia [Concluded]

It's here! It's here! The latest installment in GeneralHankerchief's mafia series!!! :horn: :smash: :charge: :rifle: :rifle: :rifle: :balloon2: :balloon2: :balloon2:

Basic summary:

- The location of this game is the Frontroom. The cozy Kingdom/Village of Peace and Love is under attack. Two of its members have joined up with the sinister mafia, and are now threatening to kill everyone in the town! It is the villagers' goal to stop them.

Rules:

- This is mafia at its most vanilla. Two mafiosi, one Detective. The mafia get to kill two people a night no matter how many of them are alive, and the Detective gets to investigate one person a night.

- Depending on the amount of people that sign up, I might up the number of mafiosi to three (but still keep two kills). This will be confirmed once the amount of players is known.

- The realism system I created in Mafia V is in place once again. Basically, the people with roles have more incentive to PM me quickly in the night phase.

- No screenshots. Of anything.

- Inactivity will be dealt with by the Wrath of God. However, I may decide to utilize Sasaki's replacement thread.

- Mafiosi cannot disclose their roles to anyone aside from me or their partner.

- The Detective cannot reveal when dead, and must reveal to everyone at once, in the thread.

I think that this will prevent the kind of mishaps that I, among others, was guilty of in Capo. Basically, I ask that everyone exercise their good judgement. Remember, this game is about having fun above all else. So play nice. :yes:

Post here to sign up. I'll be starting the game in a couple of days.

Good luck everyone! :2thumbsup:

It's probably because this is the most established of the Mafia games, so people know what they're getting with this. Eg. until Capo, I was wary of joining the more complicated games because I didn't think I could get my head around their rules. Whereas this is, as GH says, the most vanilla of the Mafia games, with a tried and tested formula, good opportunities for the mafia if they play well, but also notoriously difficult for them to reach the finishing line due to the inherent nature of Mafia.

Oh, and add me. It might be an idea to keep a running tally of the participants in the first post, and perhaps a separate thread for all the end of turn events (a la Capo).

Well, I haven't missed one yet - I'm in!

CR

Yes of course. In.

I am IN

Don't feel too badly Sir Boo, most people (myself included) ignore mini-Mafia type games and stick to the full length games.

Gen-Hankmeister is the original Mafia game guy and has great writing to go with simplicity (Kommodus too).

Then there are Sasaki's games which add something new each time.

The themed games popping up (Sir Moody, Seamus, Sigurd) also are a nice change.

Try hosting a themed game (I was going to but didn't have the time).

Add some new roles or a new system.

Oh, and the Wanax is back!

Never been in a GH game. Lets do this.

:bow: in :bow:

I am certainly in.

I'm wondering if I should PM the Chief of Police about this.

Then I would need to find a new one. :juggle2:

On another note, I'm glad there's such an interest. I'll probably do an information summary thread (again) if there are a ton of players.

OMG! I am so in!

IN!

Oh yeh In.

In!!

In!

Well, eh, what can I say...?

In!

In!

I need another game to up my post count :wink:

In ;)

Sign me up...

in!

Ah....the familiar comforts of home. Please allow me to tag along.

Yeah, I'd like to participate also. Been in every GenH game, and am not going to break that trend any time soon.

Nice game title, by the way.

:balloon2:

Hmm, on second thought, I'm afraid I'm going to have to take a powder on this one. Sorry GH, I'd love to join in, but the next 2 weeks are going to be a mess for me. Looks like fun though.

Im in please!

Gah!Im addicted to mafia games

In! I'm an addict. An addict!

I'll join thus meaning that I have competed in all 6 Mafia games (original series) :beam:

In.

32 is a lot of people. When do we start GH?

Probably after the siege of Bern wraps up. :laugh4:

GH is in a major PBM game, hosting a mafia game, being attacked by Sasaki in another mafia game, and trying to have a life. Rabbit probably murdered him in Capo only to help his schedule!

I will probably wait one more day.

Unless we get a major crush of players then the normal setup (2 mafiosi) will remain.

I haven't missed one of these yet, so I'll join.

Can I join?

A couple more hours to go.

Please can someone explain to me the finer points of this 'realism' system I see references to.

:huh2:

Well, in previous games there had been debate about whether the host sends the Detective his investigation results as soon as he receives them or the same time as the kills were posted. This was especially controversial when the Detective had revealed himself and was expecting to be killed by the mafia in the following round.

In Mafia V, I based it off a real life situation. If the Detective proceeds with his investigation (i.e. PMs me) before the mafia kill someone, then the Detective gets his results before the kills are put up, allowing him time to make his findings public before he is unable to reveal anything else.

Ah! The fog of ignorance has departed the land of knowledge, borne by the gentle breeze of your wisdom.

Thanks.

Curses! Foiled again! Ok, GH... you win... this round...

Maybe this'll finally motivate me to make some long-planned upgrades to Homes (TM).

I just hope I don't end up mafia. :no:

:laugh4:

Signups closed. I'm now going to randomly determine our mafia (2) and our Detective. Stand by.

GH, 20 bucks if you make Kommodus here a mafia :evilgrin:

I guess getting lynched in Sigurds game was a good thing.



Is Reenk playing?
If so, vote for him because:
1)He has a habit of taking up a self granted role that only confuses the town
2)HE GOES TO MICHIGAN!

Roles have been PM'd. If you did not receive a PM then you are just a townie, sorry.

Here is the first status list. Mafia, Detective, please send in the required PMs now. :yes:

Why Ice?

Ice played in the first few mafia games that I hosted. Mostly it's college rivalry. Illinois (Disco's school) hates Michigan (Ice's school).

And by the way, voting is *not* open yet. :laugh4:

Disco goes to a rival college to Ice, hence they vote for each other in each game they both play in. The town got tired of this charade in Mafia IV, reasoning "derby" votes like these (aka Disco votes) could be a good way of disguising scum activity. So they lynched Disco in the 2nd round, aiming to lynch Ice in the 3rd. As it happened, Disco was indeed a mafioso using this as cover for his scumminess, and Kommodus had found the 2nd mafioso using his ultra-powerful Mafia-hunting program, and the game ended in the 3rd round with a Town victory.

Ah, bugger. I meant to say Reenk, since Ice doesn't go to Michigan anymore.

My first "vanilla" mafia ever :jumping:

Do we play in 24-hour phases? Does the day begin at 23.30 (GMT +1)?

Is no lynch an option?

Anyhow, for now I:
Vote: Abstain

Days and nights pretty much keep to the 24-hour phase, but I usually extend it as we approach the endgame.

Omanes: Thank you. No Lynch is not an option (we haven't started voting yet).

Kills will be up in a couple of hours.

discovery1, you know Ice goes to Penn State now...?

I'm also Mafia and you should lynch me.

Oh yeah, nobody can claim mafia, even in joking.

The next person to do this will hereby be Wrath of Godded. :evil: And I am serious.

I may have missed the point here, but how does such a statement help the town ?

Remember, you're not the God of confusion and Chaos in this game :beam:

:balloon2:

Day breaks in the Frontroom. All is quiet. But not for long. You see, life was abound in the Frontroom and they all came out to celebrate the dawn of another beautiful, glorious new day in their little utopia. The birds started chriping and trilling their sweet songs. The colorful flowers unfolded, drinking in the golden sun that was beginning to rise overhead. The brooks started burbling, carrying along gallons of sweet, clear water to no destination in particular.

UltraWar witnessed none of that. He was sleeping in late again, after another night of hard drinking and partying. He finally woke up, complete with a dizzying headache and the sensation that he was strapped in bed.

Oh wait, that was real. Someone had tied ropes all around him. This was odd. Someone else was in the room, smiling. Very odd. What exactly had he done the previous night?

The person noticed Ultra up, made his way over to the bedside, and whispered in his ear.

"Do you like meat, my friend?"

Ultra, not quite sure what was going on, was still clear enough to realize that this was a strange question.

"W-why are you asking that?"

"You will see, don't worry." The mafioso chuckled evilly.

UltraWar could only look on and scream (to no avail) as he was loaded onto a truck and driven several miles from his cozy home. He still wondered what the meat reference was for. Maybe (he hoped) he had won a prize and the people in charge were just testing him. Yeah, that was it!

It wasn't. He was unloaded and untied, but knocked into a deep hole into the ground. There was no chance that he could climb out to safety. The mafioso stood by, taking in the sights. He seemed to be staring at something in the distance.

"You know Ultra, there are some pretty heavy bulls a few hundred meters ahead. Bulls like the color red, did you know that? Of course you didn't. You're not Spanish, after all. Well, no matter. I'm going to hang some red blankets around this hole."

Ultra could only stare up at the mafioso, totally puzzled.

"You'll figure it out in a minute."

A few hundred meters away, said bulls saw said blankets and started charging. They were large animals for sure, but they were fast too, especially when something ticked them off. And nothing ticks bulls off like the color red does.

Unfortunately, bulls are stupid too and they didn't see the large hole. They tumbled into the hole, crushing Ultra to death. All of his bones were broken, his skull got splattered, his brains were everywhere. In short, a very gruesome, if not visually interesting, death.

The mafioso, satisfied, shouted out "Olé" as he drove off in his truck.

Omanes Alexandrapolites the Idiot had also gotten up late, but this was normal for him. He kept to a relaxed schedule. He had no time to party or drink heavily, but he also got to go into a steady job at a relatively decent hour.

Unfortunately for him, this meant that everybody else was up too. Including potential people that didn't like Omanes. Or maybe people who just decided that he wasn't worth living. Or maybe hired killers, out to finish a job for their Capo.

In any case, Omanes soon realized his fatal mistake when he got into his car. A voice greeted him from the back seat.

"Hello."

Before Omanes could turn around a gunshot fired, its projectile striking the him in the back of the head. Omanes slumped in his chair. He would be late for work today. That and every other day.

Later that day, Frontroom Chief of Police Beirut gathered the living villagers in the town square, in order to make an announcement. Once everyone was present and quieted, he commenced.

"Gentlemen," he began, "I am sure that you have all heard the news of poor Ultra and Omanes. The Frontroom Police Department has done some initial investigations, and it is believed that these killings were the result of the mafia. Two of their number have infiltrated the town, and it will be your job to sniff them out.

"From now on until this crisis ends, we are going to work the justice system a different way. You will each have a set amount of time to vote for who you think killed Ultra and Omanes. Whoever gets the most votes will be executed by mummification. Yes, I know how to properly mummify someone while they are still living. Vote wisely."

Villagers, now is your time. Please vote for who you think killed Omanes and UltraWar. In about 24 hours, the person with the most votes will be executed.

Wow, I believe that this is the third time that Ultra has been killed first in my 6 mafia games... someone get this man a round of beer.

Vote:Sasaki

Vote:Abstain

Cmon, you surely have something more to say, Ichigo.

Seems voting Sasaki the first turn is law now.

It isn't that. I just feel bad that disco will be called out for voting for a person for some trivial reason and be lynched very early, as is what usually happens. It was a sympathy statement. :wink:

Vote: Abstain

I don't think there's anything to go on besides Sasaki. :laugh4:

Ultrawar is usually a lurker and Omanes is fairly new. Other then that there's not much to go off of right now. So for now

Vote: Abstain

vote: Destroyer of Hope
Where were you at the time of the murders? :stare:

Vote:Reenk because he goes to Michigan.

Votes must be bolded please. :laugh4:

Vote:Sasaki

Its been several hours, Three hours to be exact, since the posting of the deaths and you haven't posted yet

Right....

Meh, X makes a good arguement for Des. hmmm
nah

Vote:Reenk

Vote: Abstain... I think it should be fairly obious why.

Vote:orb

Xiahou's reasoning sounds suspicious, but after Capo and Mafia V, I'm going to press Proletariat and Reenk Roink to leave a larger footprint on the game.

Vote: Proletariat

In my experience here, Sasaki has never been helpful to the town.

Good idea to get rid of him early? Maybe

Vote: Sasaki Kojiro

Unvote,Vote:pevergreen
