The one voted best host of mafia in 2010 (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=10072217#post10072217) presents:
A classic fairy tale, with swordplay, giants, an evil prince, and a beautiful princess. Good versus evil. Handsome young farm boy versus old bald Sicilians and wavy haired homicidal princes that aren't so charming. Jokes and lines that will be remembered by nerds and anyone with a sense of humor for ages. Crazy old people, crazy young people. Wine in front of me. Battles of wit, swordplay, and brute strength. An epic tale of true love and revenge. Bloodthirsty monsters, torture, albinos and miracle workers. And much more.
Can you handle it? Are you up to having this much fun? Or are you lame and/or "busy"? Make your choice, and make it soon.
However, should you choose to take a chance and sign up, the rewards will be plenty, unless you are opposed to fun.
Rules
Game Phases
The Game is divided into alternating Day and Night Phases
Day is 48 hours long
Night is 24 hours
Posting is allowed during both phases
Phases may be extended due to either personal issues or an ability/item that extends the phase (I will let everyone know if it is the former)
Lynches
Voting is mandatory
Votes must be in the Vote: Zack format or they will not count
It is optional to have vote retractions struck through or in Unvote: Zack format, but not necessary.
No support votes
You may Abstain, but it is not the same as No Lynch (Warning: You will also be subject to insults such as "chicken", "rodent of usual size", "shy eel", and/or "
Victory
To achieve victory, you must fulfill the victory condition described in your Role PM
Injuries
Players may receive injuries, in which case they cannot use their ability or items for a full chapter (Day and Night).
Communication
Private communication is not allowed unless your Role PM states otherwise or you are posting in a GM-made QuickTopic
You may not post/quote any PMs you receive from me (just paraphrase)
You are not allowed to edit your posts, save for grammar mistakes (as long as they are edited within 2 minutes of first posting)
Dead Players
Upon death, you have the right to remain silent.
Items and Abilities
Players have items, abilities, and other effects usable to influence the game
For anything which is not passive, I must receive a PM at the appropriate time detailing your action
Item transfers will require consent of both players
Miscellaneous
There will be one mafia faction
There will be one innocent faction
There may or may not be other factions or players belonging to no faction
There will be a few vanilla roles (not the same as saying everyone will have an ability)
You will be replaced/WOGed if you don't post or vote for a lynch for an extended period of time without first warning me
You will be replaced/WOGed if I have to constantly remind you to show up, participate, and play the game
The updates will be set up as if they are from a book
The host is not a player
Due to the nature of the game, roleplaying is an important aspect! It will make the game much more enjoyable, as much fun as you wish it to be!
Be active!
Sample Innocent Role PM:
Player: John Doe
Name: Tim
Title: Florin Peasant
Quote: "The rent is too damn high!" - Yourself
Victory Condition: Innocent. You achieve victory when all opposing forces are eliminated.
Alignment: Good
