I'd like to play. But I've never played before and I'm not 100% sure on the rules. Sign me up for mafia 4 anyway. I'll learn as I go. Hugs Jen  |

But I've never played before and I'm not 100% sure on the rules. Sign me up for mafia 4 anyway. I'll learn as I go. Hugs Jen While we are waiting for enough players for mafia 4, you could take a look at the mafiascum website (the link is in the banner up top and read the rule, theory and the roles. pie_is_good will outline the specific roles being used in the game when he sets the parametres for Game 4. The basic idea is the players are citizens of the town Anonyma. Some of the players are bad guys, but no one knows who they are (well, they do know each other). During the day time, the citizens (including the mafia) try to figure out who the mafia scum are and vote to lynch someone that they believe is a baddie. The baddies will be trying to mislead the townies into believing they are goodies and that a citizen is actually scum. During the night, the bad guys will 'hit' a townie. The doctor will be able to submit a name of someone they are protecting to the moderator. If the doctor's name matches the person being hit, the hit is avoided. If they don't match, the hit is successful. During the day, all communication is made on the board, in full view of all players. The mafia are only allowed to communicate & plan via PM at night. Towns people are not allowed to communicate via PM at any time. Those are the basics ... you may want to read some of the previous games for more details (I warn you though, Game 3 is a really long read). pie may also introduce additional roles (which he will explain fully if he does add any) Hope that helps. |

As long as you don't commit the one cardinal mafia game sin of dropping out without a good reason, Superhappyjen, you'll do fine.
Front post updated. xalexfromblackx has been banned, and so will not be added.

Almost forgot. ck is in for the next game, but is having technical difficulties accessing the message board. (He seems to be able to get to everything else.) If anyone has any ideas that would help him overcome this problem, please email him. Thanks.

Mafia 4 players (5 or 6/10)
Griffey

Kalena

ck (can he still play???)
Superhappyjen
I'll give the roles a little early... just as a teaser.
[Role: (number of people who are that role) what the role does]
MAFIA: (2) Every other night, they "kill" one person. That person is out of the game. They win when they equal or outnumber the citizens AND the serial killer is dead. They vote during the day's lynch.
SERIAL KILLER: (1) Each night that the mafia does not kill somebody, they kill. They win if them and one other person are the only people left.
TOWNSPERSON: (4) They do nothing during the night. During the day, they vote during the lynch. They win when the mafias and the Serial Killer are both dead.
COP: (2) They act like a Townsperson during the day. During the night, they PM me with the name of a person, and I will tell them if that person is Guilty (mafia or serial killer) or innocent (anything else). The catch: I will randomly choose one of the cops to be insane. That cop will get the wrong results every time
(e.g, if the PM me with the name of the serial killer I will tell them "innocent", if they give me the name of a townie I will tell them "guilty".)
DOCTOR: (1) They act like a Townsperson during the day. During the night, they PM me with the name of a person. If the mafia (or serial killer) tries to kill that person, instead they are saved and do not die.
Alright, that's as many basic roles as I could jam into a game without confusing the players to death. Let me know if you have questions, I'm sure I screwed up and there will be lots.

Since I would like to see some more of the newer members become involved in the games (I think it's a good way for people to interact in a fun atmosphere), I am not going to add myself to Game 4 (at this time). I will, however, add myself to a new list ... Replacement Player. Assuming you get enough people (you need 5 more, right?), I will follow the thread and be ready to step in if needed.

Oh, we need to get the banner in this forum changed so it points to this thread (instead of the "Sign up for Mafia II" thread). Maybe it should say "Sign up for future games of Mafia"

...whenever we get the 10 people we need.
If worst comes to worst, we can start with 9 people, start with night, and have the mafia not kill anybody the first night...?

Why not start with a day and pretend that there was a night before (a pretend hit on a pretend 10th player)? That way the town still has the small advantage of being able to root out the scum before they've had a chance to plan ... |

I'd like to see us get back to nights if possible. But I expect it'll depend on how long sign-ups take. It's a perfectly good compromise if we're waiting for a long time for one more person.
