Diseased Mafia

Instead of mafia having a normal kill each night, they can target someone to be infected. The infected target dies after 1 more day and night of living (If targeted night 1, the target days at the start of day 2). If an infected person targets someone before he dies, he also becomes infected. The only way to prevent catching the disease is if you are

previously

vaccinate by a doctor. Doctors may not target themselves.

I think this is like the game of zombies or some random game round of Liar Game.
This must be done

I seem to remember seeing a game like this in the archives somewhere. I'm too lazy to find where though.

Large Themes
Infection! by Xylthixlm. I'm pretty sure he ran a M. Theme with this mechanic as well.

Disregard this; he only ran the Mini.

[mb53]

Found it! It is similar, but has differences too. I think I might run this game sometime if I remember to.

[Andrius]

Phate ran a more simpler Infection Mafia Mini last year.
Min 965? Check my wiki, but it wasn't as indepth as Xyl. (ov)

[Ythan]

How much more simpler?

[Andrius]

You were IN that game, Ythan.
You lynched me nearly single-handedly.

[Ythan]

Were you scum? Was I?

I decided not to be lazy and look it up. I called 2/3 of the scumteam while catching up! Too bad I died n2.

[Ythan]

Your play was fine, of course. You replaced terrible scum.

[Andrius]

Your play was fine, of course. You replaced terrible scum.

^ THAT

[Drench]

So. Toontown Mafia.

I was thinking Hurt/Heal, and building in some gag track progression as well.

Also, there'll be better grammar than that previous sentence.

Yeah, Toontown Mafia. YES?

[ReaperCharlie]

So, I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in pop music mafia?

There will be one twist. Each player would have a role-wise ability (called "consequence" for now) that coincides with their charachter.

The quickest Example I can think of that isn't a role already in my head:

You are Lady Gaga [Role] [Explanation].

Consequence: ["Bad Romance", Active]: Give me the name of two people (you may not include yourself) whenever you want to use this ability. For the rest of the game, they are lovers (they still keep their previous roles). They will not be told about such.

Theme's been done already, but if you can think up enough interesting mechanics for each specific role...

I could see it being good.

[Tragedy]

Why not a theme game when...
You could choose a random costume to put on and you get a temporary ability of the night that is randomly picked from the moderator, which may either have a good or bad consequence. Of course, you can use this ability on someone, pew pew!

I remember reading a game where the Town had Mafia flavor and the Mafia had Town flavor (i.e. the Town was the informed minority with a faction kill, Mafia was the uninformed majority).

Can I get the link, and what are the opinions on this?

[animorpherv1]

That would be a cool theme to run. I'd play it.

[Ythan]

If it's just changing the names between town and mafia it shouldn't be much of a change at all.

Mafia 29 is one; Space Monkey Mafia is the more famous example, because the scum didn't realize they were the IM at first.

Mafia 29 had one IM without a night

kill

and one without night

talk

, IIRC. Not easy on those teams.

[gandalf5166]

Both of those link to Space Monkey >.>

[Mr. Flay]

I'm certain I have no idea what you're talkiing about.

[/abusing stealth edit powers]

[Faraday]

Lawrencelot did it with one of his games too..I think

[animorpherv1]

So, I'm going to skip the pop music mafia for now, since it's already been done, in exchange for an older idea (if someone would be willing to help me)

If anyone would be willing, mole and I started making up a Plants Vs. Zombies Mafia, for 18 players. Since I don't think he's around anymore, if someone would like to continue helping me with it's that'd be great. Just send me a PM and I'll send you all the info we had that I still have.

~ Found, I think. May end up running as a Mish Mash

[Cogito Ergo Sum]

Space Monkey Mafia is the more famous example, because the scum didn't realize they were the IM at first.

The scum knew exactly what was going on; it was the town that didn't. One could say that the uninformed majority was simply more uninformed that game.

[Mr. Flay]

Ah, my mistake. Been a while since I looked at that game. So town thought THEY were a no-nighttalk scum group, at first?
