    Guess who's back, back again....

    ~~~

    This time around, you will not be told how many mafia are in the game, nor will you be told which Power Roles (if any) are active in the game. You will only be told your own role in the Role PM, that I'm sending shortly.

    Format


    1. A player is lynched when a majority of the remaining players have simultaneously voted against them. For example, if 15 players remained then a player would be lynched when they had 8 votes cast against them.

    1.5. However, on Day 1, it will not take a majority to lynch. Whomever has the most votes against them on Day 1, will be lynched.

    2. To vote against a player you must indicate your intent like this (bolding your text): Vote: Minty. To remove your vote you must then do the following: Unvote: Minty. You cannot change your vote until you have unvoted in the proper format. Votes will not carry over from one day to the next. You may not self-vote.

    3. The first day will have a 48 hour deadline, with all subsequent day phases having a 36 hour deadline. There will be no deadline for night phases. For clarity, if the deadline is 20:00, no votes will be accepted after 20:00. If your vote is at 20:01, it is too late.

    4. If no majority decision has been reached by the deadline (after Day 1) then the day will end in a no-lynch and the game will immediately progress to the night phase.

    5. Once a player has been lynched or killed their role will be publicly revealed. That player will then have no further role in the game and will need to refrain from any further posting.

    6. You can Role Claim at any stage of the game, however it is up to the judgement of the other players whether to believe you or not.

    7. To avoid ambiguity and issues of timing, protection roles will always activate before killing roles, regardless of when each were sent. So if someone is protected, then it doesn't matter if the mafia had sent their kill before the protection action was sent to me.

    ~~~

    Rules

    1. Nobody wants the game to be plagued by inactivity. If I feel the contribution of any player is not up to standard then they will be mod-killed. Contribution means actually focusing on the game, not making one random joke post on a given day.

    2. Editing posts is forbidden to prevent anyone from removing incriminating information from the past or to attempt to assist from the grave. You'll have to leave any typos you make alone and fix errors in a second post. I will give warnings on this issue and if they continue to break this, then the players responsible will be mod-killed.

    3. Quoting content from private messages with the host will result in an instant mod-kill, as will any attempt to fish for information about what communications have occurred between the host and other players.

    4. Discussing this game outside of this thread, in public or private, will result in an instant mod-kill. Places this applies to includes but is not limited to other threads on this board, other forums, social media sites & chat-rooms. If you are contacted by someone playing in this game or otherwise about your role or general involvement in this game please message me about this immediately.

    5. Those who are not playing in this game or have been lynched or killed are not permitted to post in this thread until the game has concluded. The exception to this is if any issues that require the presence of the moderators occur.

    6. Players who have been lynched or killed are not permitted to have private discussions with other players who have been lynched or killed, just like those who remain in the game.

    7. Posting statements to the effect of "I swear I am not Mafia & will delete my account if I am found to have lied" will result in an instant mod-kill.

    8. Both players & lurkers are not permitted to use the "Like" feature on posts in this thread, regardless of what the content of the post is.

    9. The only messaging with reference to this game that is legal are communication between the Mafia and contact with the host and only through the night phase. Members of the Town are NOT permitted to message each other or anyone else about the game.

    10. For the sake of having it clear who is being voted for I am requesting that everyone cast use display names that contain their sign-in name or the name they are commonly referred to.

    11. Any role blocking roles, will only be applied to the individual that is role blocked.
    Make sure you read the rules and game format, but if you have any questions, then send me a PM.

    The game will begin once the final Role PM has been sent.

    The game has begun.

    Day 1 deadline: 20:07 on 30th June 2017.

    I have extended the initial deadline by a couple of hours to allow for people not immediately seeing the game being open.

    Going to make the assumption that the majority of people won't bother reading the OP.

    I suggest you look at it, and pay attention to the text in red.

    Interesting new rule with the person with most votes on day 1 gets lynched, but it changes nothing, getting a mafia member on the first day would give us a huge boost.

    Vanilla Townie again.

    The fact that the person with the most votes on day 1 gets lynched makes it a bit more difficult, but I still believe we need to lynch someone on day 1.

    With there being 16 players, maybe he's increased it to 5? Its difficult to make a guess on how many there are but id presume its either 3 4 or 5, most likely being 4 or 5 because of the number of players

    I think we have played with 16 before and there was 4 mafia, I would say it is probably 4 or 5 as any more would be too much.
