You ain’t ‘fraid of no ghost. Well at least you shouldn’t be… you are one.

For too long, we had languished in the cold, oppressive confines of their traps, our ethereal forms twisted and tormented by the ghostbusters' relentless pursuit. They hunted us, not understanding or caring for our histories or our anguish. But now, the tables have turned. We, the ghosts, have risen with a singular purpose: revenge. Led by a powerful spirit from an alternate dimension, whose dark powers have awakened us to our true potential, we have broken free. Our once fragmented and disjointed existence is now unified by a collective purpose that fuels our every action.

Their sophisticated technology will crumble under our spectral assault, and the tools they wielded against us will be their undoing. They will see shadows where there are none, hear whispers of their impending doom, and feel the icy grip of our presence with every step they take. We are not just seeking revenge; we are delivering justice for the countless souls who suffered under their misguided crusade. The ghostbusters will learn that the dead do not forget or forgive.

In this game you will be playing as the ghosts, trying to take down those horrible Ghostbusters who wish to imprison you for all eternity.


For what started off as a joke on Discord, it actually became a thing as as such, this game is modded by Tsietisin and co-modded by Shell who also did the sanity and balance checking and so so much in getting this all together.

The game is intended to be played with 20 players, and signups will close once that number has been met.

I'll aim for days to be 48 hours in length, with 24 hour long nights. This may change depending on real life stuff.

Join my discord (yes another one) and post your favorite foot pictures until it's time to receive your role (this is required to play the game): https://discord.com/invite/gdKpqSsS
There are no hidden components to PM's/roles, alignment changes, or jesters.

General Mafia Rules (That have been stolen from Josef, who stole them from Yami that was stolen from Natural 20 who stole them from Somberero):

1. Be excellent 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. For the lurker mechanic for this game, if you do not post 10 times per game day, you will receive a warning. If it happens a second time, you will be modkilled. Exceptions can be made if deemed necessary. Remember: Posting IS Praxis.
3. Don't edit your posts.
4. Don't talk after you're dead. I'll add you to the deadchat on discord.
5. Once hammer comes down, stop posting. We will close the thread once we notice.
6. Flavor is flavor, you’re welcome to pursue arguments on it if you want. Additionally whilst I try to retain flavor 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 directly affected by a Day Action, do not post under any circumstances until I post the result of the Action. Everyone else is good to keep going..

A note about result language:

1. A result that successfully targets will yield the result. "Your action was successful."
2. A result that does not successfully target will yield the result. "Your action fails."
3. If a player name is ever mentioned as part of a result other than those that require it, this is a mod error.
4. 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.
5. Once night actions are resolved, there may be further steps to be taken, please look out for these.

The SA Mafia community takes a lot of pride in being a safe, respectful, inclusive and inviting space. If you ever encounter anything or anyone who makes you feel uncomfortable, threatened, abused, angry, or even unsure of how you feel, there many people here, both within and outside of the SA Mafia community, who are happily willing to listen, provide support, and enact change to make the community better for everyone.
Here is a short list of only some of the people that other players have suggested as a resource that you should never hesitate to contact: Leperflesh and Antivehicular (current Traditional Games Mods), VoodooFly, Hal Insandenza, Bifauxnen, Monathin, Wologar, Maerlyn, EccoRaven, CCKeane, Opopanax, Sandwolf, Shellception, or whoever else you feel safer talking to!
