    Hello everyone. I am momo and will be modding this game. My backup is his fluffiness. His words are mine. If you break the rules once you will receive an in-thread warning. If you break a different rule again, you get a warning. The second same rule violation or third regular violation will result in replacement.

    Anyways onto the setup.

    We will be playing a standard Stack the Deck setup - the innocent child because well, the people/modding advisers have voted on no IC.

    Day deadlines will be 7 days, night deadlines will be 48 hours. I play on mafia scum but I know DLP is used to shorter days so I have shortened MS days by half. If I find serious objections to this decision, I will bring down day deadline 1 or 2. This provides you people with more time if you want it. Remember, you can still end the day early with a lynch.

    We will be doing that you need 50%+1 votes to lynch.

    This setup will have 12 players; 9 town, 1 mafia traitor, and 2 mafia goons.

    There will be daystart and role modifications.

    Modifications
    During pre-game, mafia have 72 hours to select which (if any) of the modifications they want to their team. A maximum of three modifications may be selected.

    Bulletproof
    Role Cop
    JOAT (1 shot Strongman, 1 shot Ninja)
    Daytalk (passive ability)
    Recruit Traitor as Mafia Goon
    For each modification that is selected by the mafia, town gains an additional role as well. The town has two roles to start, resulting in a maximum of five town roles randomly selected from the following:

    Goon Cop
    Roleblocker
    Tracker
    Bodyguard
    Vigilante
    The following things should be noted by mods:

    At the beginning of the game all town aligned players receive a "Vanilla Town" role. Once mafia has selected their abilities all town roles go out. This prevents claims of "received roles before/after mafia modifications".
    No player may receive more than one role/modification
    The mafia traitor may not receive any abilities if not recruited as well.

    Starting role pms.

    Mafia Goon
    Welcome, [Player Name]. You are a Mafia Goon, along with your partner [Player Name]. Additionally you know a Mafia Traitor exists, but you do not know who they are
    Abilities:

    Factional kill: Each night phase, one of you or your partners may perform the factional kill.
    Before the game begins, you may choose up to three of the following abilities to add to your faction, but for each ability you add town will get an additional ability:
    Change a Mafia Goon to Mafia Role Cop
    Change a Mafia Goon to Mafia Bulletproof
    Change a Mafia Goon to Mafia JOAT (One Shot Ninja, One Shot Strongman)

    Goon Cop

    A lot of this has been shamelessly copied from the mafiascum wiki found here:

    The mods word is final.

    ^Observer Chat. IE those who don't want to play and also the place where the dead players can sit and discuss the goings on of the game thread as it is taking place. Living players are not allowed to view, and some Observer Chats also keep it a secret who is scum and who is town by not allowing a link to the various player QTs.

    Hm.

    I think that, given the apathy that occurred in the previous couple of games (at least for me), shorter days might be better.

    Tentative /in, but I have no idea how long signups will take nor if daylengths will be changed so I'll only be able to give a definite answer closer towards gamestart.

    I really want to play, but I don't like the longer Days. I don't know if I have the time to devote a month or so to a game.

    I live.

    Also, I quite like the longer days to be perfectly honest - it's a slower game, but that's almost the point? Like, it's a mafia game you don't have to give up 2-4 day chunks of time with a 1 day gap between them. You can take a more measured pace. Marathon not sprint, etc.

    I'm not incredibly optimistic of this filling with the response from some of the recent mainstays, but I do have the time to play in this right now, and probably the health. I'll tentatively /in.

    Let's make a pact to not post several hundred times pp un the first 30 odd hours of the game. 120 hour days will make the game unplayable if we keep that up ^.^

    I don't think we can hydra here because you can't make multiple accounts.

    We'll give this a few more days, but the interest doesn't seem to be there right now for various reasons.

    Yeah, this doesn't look likely to fire. Going to shuffle it off to the graveyard, and maybe can revisit in the future.
