Mafia 2

[mithrandir]

Mafia, Game 2!

current update: sixth round over, you caught another one! only one mafia left...

First, the rules. Bold indicates additions to the previous rules.

There will be 5 categories of people. There will be 5 mafia, chosen completely at random for the list of those signed up. Their objective is to not get caught. There will be 3 police, also chosen at random. There will also be a madman, and a doctor. And of course, the rest of those playing will be townsfolk.
Each round, the mafia will choose someone to kill off. The madman will also choose someone to kill. The police will get to, as a group, ask if one person is mafia, and the doctor will get to choose one person to spare, in the event that that person is chosen for death by the mafia or madman. Once you are dead, you won't have a say in townspeople voting, but if you want to post as a ghost, go ahead, it won't matter since you still won't know who did it. If a doctor tries to heal the madman, he will be cured(however, I will not post who the madman was, as that would make him a prime target for the mafia, only the madman and the doctor will know who he was) After the people are found dead, the townspeople will discuss who they think the mafia(or madman) is, and then after we have two or three clear nominations, the townspeople will vote on who they want to lynch. That person will be dead, and it will be revealed whether or not he/she was mafia, madman, police, doctor, or townsfolk. Then that round is over, and the mafia, madman, police, and doctor will all make their choices again. The mafia wins if they manage to kill everyone else off, the madman wins if he is the last one alive, and the rest win if they kill all the mafia and kill or cure the madman(if the madman is cured, he joins the townsfolk in trying to catch the mafia).

If anyone has any questions, let me know.

Mafia, Game 2!

current update: I am moving the mafia 2 list here, I will be emailing the mafia/madman/police/doctor shortly.

[Chuck:]

I didn't get my email yet. Would those who did please say so here so we'll know the game has started?

[Quailman:]

Nice try, Chuck. I didn't get my e-mail yet, but that's probably because I gave mith my office address and I can't check it from home.
BTW, Happy Birthday!

[Chuck:]

Thanks, Courk and Quail. When I go mad I'll save you two for last.

[mithrandir]

happy b-day chuck...
the emails are now sent. i'll post deaths when i get em.

[Omega:]

I know I'm out this game, but mithrandir, next game I want in...I think you know why....

[mithrandir]

OMEGA!!
yes, i know him

[Aarondalf:]

Editing posts already, eh, mole? What are you trying to hide???
[This message has been edited by Aarondalf (edited 09-07-2000).]

[mole:]

mole looks around him. 31 other people, and so many of them are Mafia!!! And he didn't stand a chance with only two!!!
He kneels on the ground and starts a prayer... maybe it will help him get thruogh this round alive.

[This message has been edited by mole (edited 09-07-2000).]

[James:]

Just a quick proceduaral question, mith: If the results of a lynching vote is a draw, and no-one seems likely to change their mind, what happens?

[mithrandir]

i'm not sure about draws, but i have a feeling we won't have any early, and later we can do secret ballot if necessary.

[Anonomous Player:]

Do the Police and Mafia have any pattern to their posts?

[Mafia]

wE aRe goINg to geT YOu

[Internet Stranger:]

Dont worry Mole, I will probably be sleeping with the fishes first. Considering im the best at sniffing out the mafia and all.
Dont forget, I was the one that had the mafia pointed out right from the start last time before they conspired to get me killed.

"I didn't know she was your sister I swear!"

[Doctor:]

Turn your head and cough.

[madman:]

I am a little peeved.

[Quailman:]

IS: We were among the first to discuss openly who might or might not be Mafia in the last game, and it cost us our lives. I want to hear what others have to say first this time around.

[James:]

Well here's what I say. Kill Quailman now! Get that mafia scum off of our clean streets.
Obviously you could just wait around for him and his mafia buddies to kill one of us first...

------------------
An optimist and a pessimist were trapped on an island...
They both died.


[This message has been edited by James (edited 09-07-2000).]

[firemeboy:]

Maybe IS feels completely safe discussing the matter...

[Quailman:]

Not me again! I was nominated "randomly" to be the first sacrificial lamb the last time around. I just reviewed the discussion there, and noticed that the mafiosi remained silent until I had three votes against me, and then they each voted for someone else! I even ended up surviving until the next round, so watch the voting patterns carefully.

[Internet Stranger:]

Of course im comfortable discussing it. I am a grade 'A' mafia target. I wouldnt be shocked if I was offed first. And if by a stroke of luck I am not, im sure the townsfolk will lynch me first for being 'dangerous'.
So when life expectancy is low anyways, you tend to throw caution into the wind.

------------------
-------------------------------------------

"I didn't know she was your sister I swear!"

[groza528:]

I agree. Internet Stranger is dangerous. Let's do our lynching now, and get it over with.
j/k You're okay in my book IS

[Murray:]

Kill firemeboy!

[firemeboy:]

Here we are talking about lynching people and the mafia haven't even struck. We are not only paranoid, were are downright rabid!

[mole:]

Well, I have a strategy that should help us find out who the Mafia are.... and one that should keep me alive long enough to use it.
That is, as long as this post hasn't made you suspicious....

[Internet Stranger:]

Im suspicious of Mole... Mole is planning on survival, a mafia trait.
------------------
-------------------------------------------

"I didn't know she was your sister I swear!"

[mithrandir]

It is a sad day. Not only has BBB been killed, but one of our fine police officers, James, has been murdered in cold blood.
let the lynching commence...

[dethwing:]

well, interesting. That only leaves us 2 police(wo)men? Oh well. I dont want to seem to suspicous by accusing anyone right off Anyone have any suggestions?

[dethwing:]

hmm how do you post in dark?
------------------
It would be impossible to discuss the subject without a common point of reference

[mithrandir]

oh... just to make this easier on me, if you want to make an official vote to lynch for someone, please put:
Vote: *Username*
thanks

[dethwing:]

Actualy strike that i noiminate IS. We all know what happened last time. Even if hes not a killer, his actions can lead no more innocents being lynched. With his lunatic, fanatic way of playing the game, he is a danger to all of us honest townsfolk
------------------

I had to put the periods in there so the word wont be bold. when you use em, dont put in the periods.

[dethwing:]

Vote: *Internet Stranger*
------------------
It would be impossible to discuss the subject without a common point of reference

[hey_herb:]

Why did BBB get killed? He hasn't said anything yet, and unfortunately will never get a chance.
Why did James get killed? All he did was say we should get Quailman first. Coincidence? Of course the killer(s) could be trying to lead us off track. I don't want to take any chances.

Vote: Quailman

I am taking a big risk here. If no one backs me up I will probably be next.

Put the / the wrong way. changing it to see if goes bold.

[dethwing:]

How come yours doesnt appear in bold on my screen?
------------------
It would be impossible to discuss the subject without a common point of reference

[carebear:]

Not sure how much I agree with hey-herb. I think its a setup, but he could be right. Of course, IS could be mafia too, and he might be a danger. *sigh* Oh well. I'll vote l8r.

[Aarondalf:]

Sorry about the double-post. What do the police do? Have they already asked their question? Do we get to see the answer?
Anyway, I think the mafia will lay low for a while so I am not going to vote just yet. I suggest the rest or you become a little less lynch-happy yourselves. Remember the more townsfolk we lynch, the more "oomph" the mafias vote has, and thats bad.

[mithrandir]

the police have asked their question for the round, and have recieved their answer, but they might not reveal what they know if they find out someone is mafia, as that would expose them to the wrath of the mafia... and they might not be trusted. what they do with the information they get is up to them.

[Internet Stranger:]

HA!
*** Finger of suspicion to Dethwing ***

(Not a vote)

I knew it, the mafia would attempt to have the town lynch me again right off the start for their sick twisted sense of humor. I can just see it now:

Mafia1: Hey Mafia3, lets not kill Internet Stranger directly.

Mafia3: I agree, we can always get the morons among the village to lynch him for us anyways.

Mafia2: Yea, lets do it quickly though, he can finger us out easy.

So I will not be led down the path of malcontent again. To take me out mafia scum, you will have to MURDER me. Thats right, the townsfolk have enough common sense to not lynch me twice.

They learned their lesson last time as I had the mafia figured out from the beginning. And we all know the mafia would want me out of the way. so...
