Is it I that is insane... or the rest of the world?


Bla bla bla, mafia game. Bad people in town.

You and me both know the drill by now.

The only problem is...

Who the hell am I?


Basic information

Days will be 48-72 hours in length. Nights will be around 24 hours. These are flexible based on when I want to be up and doing things.
This is a role madness game is for 16 people.
We’ll be using Discord and SA PM's to manage everything, so please make sure you have access to those for the game. Discord link: https://discord.gg/hq8ug6V
Alignment changes are not part of this game.

Special mechanic: Hidden Roles

As the name of the game would imply, you will not know your own role. In fact, you will not even receive your role pm!

However, to make up for that, everyone in the game has a rolecop they can use IN PLACE of their role's action at night, if applicable.

When used, it will give you a copy of ANOTHER player's Role PM (Minus alignment, of course). The rule regarding posting Role PM's still applies, so do not simply paste them! Again, this rolecop cannot be used on yourself.


General Mafia Rules (That have been stolen from Natural 20 who stole them from Somberero)

1. Don't be poo poo to each other. This is a game, part of the game is having people react, but if you think you’re reacting badly, walk away, calm down, come back later.
2. If you post fewer than ten times across a game day that comes within 12 hours of finishing, I will grant a free vig to be used by the player that posts the most, targeted at you. This goes through any and all protection.
3. Don't edit your posts.
4. Don't talk after you're dead. I'll send you a PM to an Obs doc if you want to chat poo poo.
5. Feel free to post after the hammer/during twilight about non-game stuff.
6. Flavour is flavour, you’re welcome to pursue arguments on it if you want. However, scum are backed by elaborate fakeclaims. Additionally whilst I try to retain flavour justification for many abilities, they will not always match expectations.
7. No replacements after D2.
8. Don't directly quote any communication from me, including your role pm. If you have OOT communication with another player, the rule still applies.
9. Don't fake day actions.
10. If you are affected by a Day Action, you may continue posting. However, do not activate a day action of your own while there is an unresolved one targeting you.

A note about result language

1. Results will be hidden as well, via code. So even if you have an investigative role, you will not know what your result is.
2. If a player name is ever mentioned as part of a result, this is a mod error.
3. A "successful" target is defined as an ability resolving on someone. This does not have to be the intended target, so a redirected result will yield the same language as a result that has not been redirected.

Lastly:

This is probably going to be a bit unbalanced. In case it wasn't obvious. Be aware of this if you sign up.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

"I'm using my action on (player)" or something of the sort works just fine. As for rolecopping, read OP for more info.

No, you don't have to guess your action, although some may be more obvious than others.

Yes. If you have any other channels you're supposed to have access to, you will be given permission for them when the roles are given out.

another question that will probably out me as a noob:
i know that the rolecop doesn't give alignment, but what about the "godfather" role, which is pretty dang obvious what the alignment is. will the gf have rolecop protection like it usually does from normal cops?

I'm not going to answer questions like this. This is fishing for setup info from the mod. Don't do this, btw.
