Texas Mafia [Concluded]

[Sasaki Kojiro]

This is mafia...Texas style. Less voting, more justice.

9 townies--Can post in the thread Kill:player. This kills the player and ends the day. They win when the mafia is eliminated.

1 cop--can investigate one person per night. The goon comes up guilty, the godfather comes up innocent. Can't day kill players.

1 goon--can't day kill players. Wins when all townies dead. Get's one kill per night.

1 godfather--comes up innocent to investigation, can day kill players. Can nightkill if the goon is dead.

Roles will be revealed upon death.


The problem with the mini games seems to be lack of discussion. So, this makes the game as fast as you want. I'll have the mafia supply me with a list of names to choose from and will post the night kill as soon as I post the daykill.

No voting, no deadline on days.

[Csargo]

In! and I'm from Texas this should be fun.

[UltraWar]

I'll sign up to this game

[Seamus Fermanagh]

I'm full up, though this sounds fun.

You do realize that this could be over in 20 minutes if everybody's on at once?

Edit: not in, thanks.

[Caius]

In!

[Sir Boo]

So in :P

[pevergreen]

Right on in!

[CountArach]

In...!

[Caius]

Still doesnt understanding the votation

Still doesnt understanding the votation

There is no voting. You discuss like normal until someone posts "Kill:player" at which point the day is over.

[Csargo]

Hmm this will be weird.

[pevergreen]

Yeah. Over very quick i think.

[KukriKhan]

Huh. Texas hold-em, with a cut-throat option. Let's try it and see how to best tweak it. Could speed up daily results while emphasising analysis. Cool.

In, please.

[ByzantineKnight]

In!

[Crazed Rabbit]

In.

So, the first person who writes 'Kill:Player' gets to decide that the player is killed?

CR

As far as I can tell, yes.

[Xiahou]

Sounds like it could shake things up a little from traditional mafia games. Of course, things will probably go horribly wrong- but that should be half the fun.

I'm in.

[sapi]

Oh what the hell - i'm in

I have a horrible feeling that the game will be over before i get a chance to post once

[HughTower]

In. Sounds vengeful.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Game has started!

[Motep]

Wooo! Vote: Ichigo as we need to start somewhere.

[pevergreen]

Are you in this game? Methinks not...

[Csargo]

Are there going to be kills first or what?

[Sasaki Kojiro]

No, it's day.

[Csargo]

If anyone kills without a majority on who to kill I will view them as suspicious.

[pevergreen]

Kill: Sasaki


So we just kill someone, and it becomes night...wow.

[ByzantineKnight]

Kill: Sasaki

Mafia!

[pevergreen]

No one accuses me! Kill..

[CountArach]

I agree with Ichigo, we need a majority agreement first. But where to start?

[HughTower]

I think the important gameplay points are this:

• Game can't move forward until the town has killed someone
• The 'goon' can't daykill so when deciding who should be killed, that responsibility should be swapped around so as to elimnate suspects.
• The 'cop' can't daykill either.
• We won't know whether we've got a Mafia by the number of nightkills changing - there will always be one

Our strategy should be something like this:

• As Ichigo has said, don't kill someone without prior consultation. Remember, there is no rush or deadlines - we decide when day ends.
• Our first kill is going to be utterly random & pointless. But it has to be done. I think we should kill a volunteer & the cop should then reveal himself to the volunteer with his role PM. The volunteer can then steer the town away from killing the cop by suggesting (& being listened to) candidates for the next daykill. Of course a mafioso could 'volunteer' to prove their worth but it would be a very high risk strategy on their part & a gamble on our part worth taking.
• The cop will only be able to find the goon, so chances are he'll find an innocent (8 in 10). If Sasaki allows, then he should release his findings to the dead volunteer for announcing to the town.
• There is no point in the cop investigating someone who has daykilled. They will appear as innocent.
• Killing the don will be a case of guesswork & insight so don't be afraid to die to prove your innocence.
• In the endgame, the Mafia (should) win if the Don is alive with 2 townies, so be very aware.

Firstly, does this make sense (strategically)? Secondly, are we all agreed? Thirdly, Sasaki, what is your policy on allowing the dead to speak etc?

Once most of us have answered those two questions, but not before, then we should start.

To prove my faith in this plan, I am happy to volunteer to be the sacrificial kill (but also happy for another to do it, it will be an active & crucial role).
