Mini 2247: Mountain Dew Mafia (Game Over)

Mini 2247: Mountain Dew Mafia

As reviewed by Penguin_Alien.

This setup is a flavored low-complexity game for 13 players and is explicitly guaranteed to feature 10 town-aligned players and 3 mafia.

General Rules

1. We don’t tolerate ad hom wars. If your posting is merely insulting a player without providing game content, you can expect a strike from us. Three strikes, you’re out. We are fairly lenient about this, but posting “Fuck you” over and over again is simply not acceptable. Severe issues will be reported to the list mod(s).
2. If we say it violates these rules, it does. You can take it up with us postgame if you wish.
3. Play towards your win condition. Gambits are fine, directly harming your own team is not.
4. Once an elimination is reached, you may continue discussion until we lock the thread. No votes or unvotes will count after an elimination has been achieved.
5. An elimination is achieved as a majority of players voting for somebody. Half is not a majority.
6. Do not quote or pretend to quote any information you get from us via PM. This includes posting your role card verbatim. Paraphrasing is fine, as are role claims naturally.
7. Do not talk about this game anywhere else, or with anyone else.
8. Do not discuss ongoing games in this thread. This includes games on sites other than mafiascum. This also includes using [redacted] as that loophole does not fly here.
9. We are usually rather lenient upon activity. This game is an exception. Post every 48 hours. Failure to do so will earn you a prod. Respond to your prod within 24 hours, or face replacement. Three prods is also a force replacement.
10. Claiming scum by yourself is fine. Claiming scum with another player is an instant modkill. Don't do it.
11. We do not require unvotes. Your vote will be counted so long as you bold it or use the vote tag. Shorthand names are fine so long as it’s clear who the vote is for.
12. If you have a question, please PM us. If a question is something that should be answered publicly, we will make a post addressing it without naming who asked it.
13. If our vote count is wrong, you can PM us or post in the thread (use the bold tag and "@MOD") about it.
14. We do not fix tags or edit posts where you might make a formatting mistake, even if you ask us to.
15. We reserve the right to add to these rules or modify them, but only when we post notifying all players in the game of the change.
16. Loophole abuse is all fun and games until we modkill you. Don’t try it.
17. Blue

(This color at #0000FF)

is our color. You are welcome to use any other color of the rainbow.
18. Encryption, text hiding, and the like are silly. Don’t do it.
19. Do not use temporary information to convey messages. This includes your signature and your avatar, but is not limited to these things.
20. While putting your vote or unvote on its own line is helpful, it is not necessary and any attempts to game voting formatting will be dealt with as an attempt to cheat. If we think it was a vote, it was a vote.
21. A modkill will always punish the faction modkilled more as far as timing goes. All modkills will be done after consultation with the listmods. Modkills may or may not end the day. Modkilled players will be changed to a neutral survivor, meaning they lose the game instantly.
22. In the event of site downtime lasting more than 3 hours; time will be added to the deadline to compensate at a 1 to 1 ratio.
23. All factional decisions must be agreed upon by all living members of that faction.
24. All topics containing two or more players are explicitly never going to be allowed to have redactions. Post accordingly.

Sample Town Role PM:

Penguin_Alien - Voodew

You are Voodew, the Halloween seasonal flavor. While you claim to be a mystery flavor, you'll never convince me that you aren't the unholy spawn of a box of Cherry Fun Dip and a candied apple. That said, you probably won't be around much past October. In prior years, you were Candy Corn and Fruit Explosion. You will be officially revealed Halloween night.



Simple Role Name: Vanilla Townie
Alignment:

ANYWAY, IT'S TIME FOR A [[Questionnaire]], COURTESY OF YOUR FAVRITE [[Gameshow Host]], GAMMA EMERALD. DON'T WORRY, THESE QUESTIONS ARE DEFINITELY NOT BEING USED FOR TARGETED ADVERTISING LATER!

1. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE [[Movie/Color/Ice Cream]]?? YOU'RE WELCOME TO ANSWER [[all/any/none]] OF THIS PART!!
   
2. WHAT'S A ROLE YOU HAVEN'T BEEN IN A MAFIA GAME YET THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE? OR , WHAT'S A ROLE YOU'VE PLAYED BEFORE BUT WANT TO TRY TO PLAY BETTER SOMETIME>
   
3. WHAT DO YOU FEEL LIKE IS YOUR GREATEST STRENTH/WEAKNESS AS [[Town/Scum]]??
   
4. OUT OF THIS PLAYERLIST, WHO WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE IN 3P LIMLO WITH AS EITHER ALIGNMENT?

AS A TOKEN OF GOOD FIATH, I AM GIVING MY OWN ANSWERS AS WELL!!

• MOVIE: [Zombieland]
  COLOR: BLUE
  ICE CREAM: MINT CHOCOLATE
  
• I WOULD HONESTLY LIKE TO BE A CULT LEADER ONCE,

[Wisdom]

VOTE: dunn

I read nothing other than the vote in the above post

[Towelie]

This flavor sounds absolutely fucking revolting

VOTE: vft

p-edit: not as revolting as that font

[StrangeMatter]

Hey everyone. Also the font might as well be a crime.

VOTE: Gamma Emerald

[Gamma Emerald]

It’s literally just courier font. I chose it because I was trying to do a spambot vibe and I feel like courier works well for that between being monospace and looking like the font I’ve seen in coding programs (or being the font, I’m not too sure)

[Noraa]

egg egg ego

[MUSHSHAGANA]

So, heads up out of the gate since it landed on me five minutes prior to receiving the daystart PM... I'll be a bit intermittent for a few days, due to RL stuff. Monday I'll definitely give everything a good sitdown if I can't keep up.



Meanwhile: VOTE: Toogeloo

Because Toogeloo is the one who I have history with who I have spoken to the least. Clearly intentional.

Hi uhhhhhh everyone else I have history with.

Movie I dunno I don’t watch movies. Critical Role is my favorite long running stream though.
Color: If I have to pick Purple but rainbow is more my bag.
Ice Cream: Vanilla I know how bland.
Role I’d like to play/play better: Traitor
Strength as town: Unpredictability
Weakness as town: Unpredictability/stubbornness
Strength as scum: Manipulation
Weakness as scum: cockiness/boredom

Players I would like in elo:
Town me: Dunn and you. I lot of people are hard to read for me but I think an elo with you and Dunn would be pretty quick.
Scum me: Hard to decide. Generally I don’t play scum for a final three in elo and I feel if you’re picking players over the road map/narrative it’s not good scumming.

[Towelie]

I chose it because I was trying to do a spambot vibe

i'm glad you're seizing your chance to be a [BIG SHOT]

Brain train!

[Gamma Emerald]

You know, I figured I’d get more reactions to my RQS than I have so far, maybe people just don’t care when I do it anymore.
I am curious why Critter thinks Dunn is an easy read though.
