Hello! This is a mafia game based on the 1982 film "The Thing" for 12 players. ![]() ![]() ![]() It differs from normal mafia in a couple ways. There will be a single creature at the start of the game, there will be a n0 which will happen before any roles are confirmed in which the creature chooses the first infected. Anyone who does not get a role pm is uninfected at the start of the game. The infected will know who the other infected players are but will not have any out of thread communication. The only way an infected can be found is by the daily vote, the vote is for who to blood test. The infected/uninfected status of the vote will be displayed as the flip but that player will not be dead. Each night the creatures will get to infect another uninfected player. ![]() Each night a random UNINFECTED player will get a kill, the person will not be announced in thread. This kill can be withheld or used. Play will continue in this way until either the creatures have all been killed or until they have taken over the base (nothing can stop them from controlling the vote)

I searched to see if anyone had done it before and I figured it had been long enough where it could be run again. I too, hope that I can live up to it.

this isn't a signup, I'm just wondering if I'm being a total idiot and missing something blatantly obvious with how the game works. game essentially starts with two things each night the town gets a kill, but each night there's also a new thing even if town shot perfectly every time how do you ever kill all the things

Bifauxnen posted:this isn't a signup, I'm just wondering if I'm being a total idiot and missing something blatantly obvious with how the game works. Huh. Uh, you're right. The version I played killed the Thing on a positive result and it didn't end the day. Day only ended when town was tested. No night kill.

I'll play, if the game begins after the 29th. I'm out of the country until then, so if it fills sooner I will need to sit out.

GulagDolls posted:you have to either immediately kill creature day 1 or vig/lynch correctly in tandem multiple times [impossible for town to win[all cpig games lol]] I'm very disappointed in both of you. First of all, maybe bring this up to me in private or at least think that this has been thought of. Jesus.

it's just that even though I'm too busy to sign up for any more games right now, the question still tormented my mind y'see

My only real point is maybe send me a pm instead of coming into the thread with it. You know, since you can't see the setup to confirm is your suspicions are correct or not. (Hint: You're wrong)

Ok that's that. I'm going to get the player list in the op fixed and then start n0. When d1 starts if you did not get a PM then you are vanilla town. Closing thread until day 1.
