Tontine is a mafia-like print and play game for six to ten players. It is a game of social manipulation played over several rounds and matches, with players voting on who to eliminate each round until the pot is claimed, in one of several ways. We play until one person reaches 25 points.

While I think that sounds fun, organized online gambling is probably a good way to get this game shut down.

Weird! I am not plotting murder or theft in the slightest, and am infact a perfect angel and friend who will do everything in his power to help you win the game, if you are nice to me. :angel::)

I'll check with Ettin about betting. If people want to put down money then it has to unanimous, or else I can split the game into two groups.

Opop you cannot play. This game requires you to murder people and that is impolite.

I am afraid you will lose your Canadian citizenship if you try. :ohdear:

ꜱʜʀɪᴍᴘ?














Game will start as of now. Deadline is 3 P.M. CST tomorrow. I know that's probably an awkward time for some of you, sorry!



Just in Case You Did Not Read the Rules
  • By deadline tomorrow, you need to submit a vote for who to eliminate.
  • The person with the most votes, along with anyone who didn't vote with the majority, dies and is out of this first match.
  • If you are sure you are the day's vote target, you can instead submit AMBUSH instead of another player name. If you were the majority vote, you instead survive and get to select one of your detractors to exit the game.
  • If you play AMBUSH and you were not the majority vote, your cowardice has betrayed you and you die.
  • We'll talk about the Final Two rules when we get there, but they're a little different.
  • Any means of private communication is allowed.
