Just what in the blue blazes of blinding bollocks is this?

I'm completely without any idea, standard actually, but I can't tell what this is about from the introduction?

This Sir, is a version of the popular party game Mafia. First introduced here as a online forum version by GeneralHankerchief.

The game is about the informed minority against the uninformed majority and the two groups trying to annihilate each other. The informed minority kills players during a phase of the game called night and the uninformed majority lynches one player during a phase called day.
Since the uninformed majority does not know who the informed minority is, the chance of lynching another of the uninformed majority is quite high. When the uninformed majority has managed to lynch all members of the informed minority the game ends in a town victory. If the informed minority manages to stay hidden and kill all members of the uninformed majority the game ends in a mafia victory.

In other version you add other groups of players to the game, maybe a detective that can investigate players during the night phase or a doctor that can protect players during the night phase.

This game is an advanced version of this game and have several groups and roles.
But it is based on the basic version with an informed minority trying to kill a uninformed majority.

Thanks Sigurd. With that description and the wiki link I can go back and read your rules again.

These things are very interesting games. I just got into them myself a few months ago, and they are certainly a nice break from the usual. It seems to me that the more 'advanced' and complex versions of the games are the most enjoyable, though that could just be my own personal preference. This looks like it will be one of those, so it would be a fun one to get started in. One thing to keep in mind is that once the game starts, you essentially can't trust a single thing that anyone else says unless you are told you can trust them by your 'role' PM. There is no IC/OOC distinction in these games, which can be confusing to some long-time PBM players. Once the game starts, it can pervade all levels of interaction with the other participants. Suspicion is the name of the game, and trust is very hard won.

Spread the word !!

3 days and some hours to start .

[Craterus]

OK Sigurd, I'll accept that invitation.
