[rb] Mafia


Hello, Toribashians!

Game-based events are great, but sometimes you need something just to have fun with people you know for years (or whom you met some days ago, it doesn't matter).
We are bringing you Mafia, which is originaly a party game that originated in old good Soviet Union.



What is Mafia?
Mafia is a psychologic roleplay game where participants are usually devided into two teams: civilians and mafia. Each team's aim is to win by killing all the players of opposing team. Might sound simple, but players are secretly assigned roles: either mafia, who know each other; or civilians, who know only the number of mafia amongst them.


So how is it played?
Game consists of series of two phases: "Day" and "Night". During the day, all the players try to find out who is mafia (or to cheat civilians - for mafia members). In the end of each "Day" phase they vote against players who they think are from mafia and one with most votes gets killed.
After that comes the night. During this phase, civilians "sleep" and mafia members meet each other to decide who are they going to kill. Once they decide, the Godfather informs the Narrator about the decision so that each Day starts with news of the night murder.

When Villains play



There will be a special thread created for each day of the game. All the discussion goes on forum or at #mafia IRC channel (it is up to participants), but the votes should be voiced in the thread so that they were clearly seen.
You can also make announcements (such as claiming to be a Detective) there if you need all the players to see that, it's up to you.


Oh god sir, you suck at presenting rules
If you didn't understand how Mafia is played, then visit Wikipedia and check the rules there.


Okay, so what are the roles?

  • Civilians:
    • Citizen - usual player with no special abilities.
    • Detective - can check one player per night to find out whether he is a mafia member or not.
    • Doctor - heals a chosen player at night in case he's also chosen as a victim by mafia. Cannot heal players who are already dead. Cannot heal the same player more than one time in a row and cannot heal himself more than two times during the game.
    • Priest - shrives one player at night. By doing that, he discovers the role of this player who is also being told the name of the Priest.
    • Slut - neutralizes the chosen player's abilities (if any) during the night. Cannot "sleep" with one player two times in a row.

  • Mafia:
    • Gangster
    • Godfather - the head of Mafia team, tells the Narrator mafia's decision at night. If killed during the day, one of Gangsters takes his place (in case there's no Mafia Kid).
    • Killer - makes another shot from Mafia at night.
    • Mafia Kid - illegitimate child of the Godfather. Doesn't know his role from the beginning and thinks that he is a Citizen (however, he is known to Mafia and cannot be killed by them). When Godfather gets killed he takes his place and becomes the next Godfather.

  • Villains:
    • Maniac - chooses one player as a victim at night and kills him.
    • Courtesan - neutralizes the chosen player's abilities (if any) during the night. Cannot "sleep" with one player two times in a row.


Why should I play this?
You're not forced to, but we've got nice prizes here. Those who're left alive in the end of the game share the prize of 50.000 TC and get unique achievements. That could be 5 players or 1, it doesn't matter, but winners get their prize.

Yes, what Beta said. You have to tell the city who the Mafia is (at least one member) after checking roles.
You don't get awarded anything just for getting the right card.
Did you check his status?
You should reveal yourself when saying that someone is mafia after you're 100% sure that he is one of them (and this can be only if you know his role from the narrator).
Just done another big update.

Fixed general rules.
Fixed rules for Doctor and Slut.
Added a new group: Villains
And four new roles: Priest, Killer, Mafia Kid and Maniac.
Slut can now be a part of Villains (in this case she's called Courtesan).

Cards for new roles

Just read over them again. That's awesome. So it now seems that the "Mafia Kid" role is the safest. Although you don't know that you're the mafia kid until the godfather is dead... Interesting..

Can't wait for the next game!!
Aww man, mafia kid seems like a really cool role.

Also, what if the detective gets a small deduction in his earnings after the 3rd civilian killed, that is if the civilian side wins the game.
Applications are most likely to be opened in the beginning of next week.
JSnuffMARS: I know where he is from, too ;)
