:siren: The Last Bastion - An open-setup PARANOIA variant for 30 players is now open for signups :siren:


I absolutely love wacky role madness style mafia over any other form of mafia, but I wanted to try my hand at running a far more traditional 'vanilla' style mafia setup while having a bit of a story to go with it.
This is my answer to that style of mafia and I've designed in a way to be played extremely quickly, while maximising the paranoia aspect of traditional mafia, utilising a simplistic ruleset, and to do away with some of the short-comings and cliche states of play you'd normally see from a standard mafia setup.

It is an open setup game, with the ruleset laid out clearly in the OP. If you have questions before the game starts please let me know.

I know a few of you may have qualms about playing in such an extremely large game, but rest assured that it is designed to be played extremely quickly and I can absolutely promise you it will be worth your while!

:siren: Please do me a huge favour and come sign up. I would absolutely love to see this game in action :siren:

:pcgaming: 12/30 players are already signed up! :pcgaming:

About a year ago, we played in my actual very first SA mafia game. I was deeply impressed by the cases you were making and your ability to say the town. In hardly any time at all, the noose was around my neck (hot) and I realized my loyalty to you had cost town the game. I swore revenge. You are the only person who remembers my first username and you'll never reveal it, because that would just be too easy.


For a long period of time, I believed you were dead. The fact that you've returned now is mysterious, because here you are, and based on what I've heard... that shouldn't be true.


I'm luring you into a honeypot and everyone knows but you. Your lip is being yanked daily by the tug of my hook and yet you still seem to be stumbling forward. Just keep reading her Twitter. Every day. Just keep reading mine. It'll be gospel 'ere long.


CL, you inheritor of madness, how you even compelled the pig to leap into the butcher's is beyond me. It strikes me that you must be a brilliant liar and an incredible manipulator, and yet I never find fault in your words. Someday, perhaps, I will see through your veil and come to understand just how much you have to teach me or just how little substance there is after all. One way or another, you know how this ends.


I named you. Nobody else remembers, but I do. I took your prior self and turned you into this amalgamation seeking vengeance and blood, shaking with a hunger only you know. I named you. Also, we knew. But I was honest, which meant you weren't. Shame.


There's a Final Fantasy summon with a name similar to your name, and whenever you appear out of nowhere I picture who must be your summoner. Then I realized that the analogy isn't far off.


All you had to do was duck.


...Hm. See, I feel you've heard enough of my lying. I feel you never believe me when I am telling the truth and never allow me the dignity I earned. That's acceptable, what's a California girl to do? But what's fascinated me over these last few months is just how many people compare us. They've accused me of being your alt. I tell them what I did to you -- that it made me life control for a while out of game -- indeed, for the remainder of that game, when I want laughing maniacally, I was whispering, "It's right there in your profile, pera."

(You deserve a good one - no true offense was intended. I continue to believe you are a curious and fascinating individual.)

AnonymousNarcotics posted:

Oh, honey... gosh. We did talk tags. Literotica is either absolute trash or compelling. We should jam.

This feels odd. That you'd want this. But okay.

No one here walks away from an encounter with you unchanged. You put the truth of love and friendship we manipulative shitheads just don't understand. Some people think they can encounter you and walk away the same person. No one does. Sociopaths manipulate people like you like bishops - sliding you back and forth across the board from unexpected distances to take the surprise kill - but aha, the feeling as White moves a piece to capture this particular bishop is... different. As you go down, so too their dreams of glory. Everyone who has ever interacted with you. I've read every post you've ever made. Everyone. Except, as you know well now, myself. There is something fundamentally wrong with me. We truly have no control who lives, who dies, who tells our story.

(What a lovely note to end on - I adore you. :ese:)

Sweet IS... we met but only recently, but you've felt it too, haven't you? As he died in my arms and I closed his eyes, you emerged from behind and I felt you take it back. Don't worry. Fair is fair. This connection of ours, this collective we've gathered around us? We could really make it into a monster, if we all pulled together as a team.


Learning you really were only 19 blew my mind. You seem so wide and knowledgeable, but I suppose it explains the sense of humor. I trust you with my people's lives and you surround then with the undead as if I'm to be expected to believe that's a benefit to be. Also, I won't be around tomorrow but Mana will play for me. Don't worry, she can do both accents.

That's all! Sorry if you missed it but if you enjoy ridiculous melodrama and/or, I'unno, whatever, you know how to get me.
