The Games
The following will be the subgames in Team Mafia 2012:
1.
White Flag Mountainous
. Moderated by Equinox. This game is mountainous (no power roles) in a 10 vs. 3 format. However, town wins if they can eliminate two of the three scum in the game.2.
Closed Normal Game
. Moderated by hasdgfas. This game is a closed normal that will follow all of the requirements for a Mini-Normal.3.
"Almost Normal."
Moderated by zoraster. This game is close to normal, but the moderator makes no promises that it will follow the normal requirements. The game name is part of the mechanic as such, and "Almost Normal" is merely a placeholder. This game only has 12 players (9 town vs. 3 scum). 4.
The Scummies
. Moderated by Lost Butterfly (Faraday and Mina). Players will be made judges in groups that will award Scummies awards (granting powers to certain players). I don't know how much further Faramina want me to go into the mechanics of how they're doing it, so I'll leave it there. 5.
Mafia in the Back Room
. Moderated by Vi. The spiritual successor to Mafia MetaMafia. This game is somewhat mechanic heavy.Definitions
To make it easier on us all, “Team” will be the four players that you will win or lose the big-shebang with. “Side” will be the side/team your players will be on in an individual subgame.
Game Draft
After sign ups go up, I will announce the draft order of the teams. Each team will submit a list of the five games they want. The games will be filled according to snaking draft order.
Role Assignments
After the draft takes place, your team will get a PM with four role PMs, one for each game your team is in. You must then PM the moderator with which player you wish to have which role.
Dynamic Deadlines
Every game will use the following “dynamic deadline” system: Day deadlines will range from 10-16 days and Night deadlines will range from 24-72 hours depending on the speed of the game versus the other games. These deadlines will be set by the Supervisor (Zoraster), not the individual moderators. Don’t bitch at them; I'm the
droid
mod you're looking for.There will be no banked deadlines. There will be no game-specific extensions. However, there may be some form of Team Mafia wide extensions granted if circumstances require it.
Team QTs
1.Your team will have a Team quick topic. All discussion regarding the game should take place in the quick topic. HOWEVER, you may PM your teammates at any time telling them to check on the QT if you CC Zoraster.
2. You may copy and paste whatever you want INTO the team QT. You may
not
copy and paste text OUT OF the QT.3. You may continue to post in this QT even when you are dead.
4. You have nearly complete freedom on what you can post in your QT with regards to the game. Most restrictions are about what you can post in game threads. Site rules still apply.
Alternate Methods of Communication
1. Your team members may communicate through use of text-based communication such as IM programs (AIM, Gchat, the text part of Skype, etc.) so long as you are able to copy and paste in a readable form into a QT.
2. If you do so, you must copy ALL of the transcript where you talk about anything relating to the game into your QT. Make sure your logging is ON so that if you get disconnected you still have the transcript.
3. Please try to make this readable. Please turn off timestamps as they make it pretty hard to read in a quick topic.
4. Please edit out completely unrelated chat. You can leave in small talk when you IM someone or whatever, but the mods don't need to pour through a dozen lines talking about how drunk you got last weekend, how well you're doing with LoL, etc. unless it somehow relates to the game.
5. For all other purposes, consider this IM chat just an extension of your QT. Any rules that apply there also apply to your IM conversations. For example, no player may paste from an IM conversation into a game thread.
6. You should paste the transcript in immediately after you finish your conversation.
Talking About Other Games
1. Players may mention other games within Team MAfia only to talk about things that have been mod confirmed such as what a player flipped when they were killed. They may not speculate about another game’s players (such as who is scummy and so forth). You may not talk about how bad a wagon was, etc. You must keep it to only the information provided by the moderator.
2. To reiterate: speculation about other games is prohibited.
3. Any attempt to try to signal to another game what they should or should not do is against the rules.
4. Attempts to be “clever” and circumvent these rules will be treated harshly. We will “pierce” hypothetical questions or answers, ignoring the hypothetical nature and assume that it is meant to be a factual statement.
5. A major violation is defined as one that has the potential to be game breaking. For example, if your teammate is dead and flipped town, posting about who is scummy in that game will be a major violation.
6. Explicitly Allowed: You may mention who is on each team. You may mention what stage (e.g. Day 2) a game is in. You may mention how many players are left alive from a team, including your own. You may mention how many scum have been killed/alive in a particular game (or town alive/killed), knowing that all games are 10v3 or 9v3. You may talk as much as you wish about a game that is finished.
7. None of this applies to your team QT. You may post what you wish in there.
Your Teammates are Always Innocent Until Proven Guilty
1. You may at no time say, indicate, insinuate, etc. that your Team Mafia teammates are or might be anything other than town. This includes in any hypothetical situation.
2. Exception: You may talk about your teammates being scum if they have flipped scum in another game (i.e. are dead).
3. If a player is NOT on your team and is still alive in another game, you must follow the rules in the Talking About Other Games thread. In other words, you may not speculate on a player's alignment in another game.
Replacements
1. It is your job to replace team members who are not active. If a moderator has to take action, there will be a penalty.
2. To replace a team member, you must PM Zoraster AND the moderator of your subgame.
3. You may replace with anyone who is not currently on a Team Mafia team. However, only four people may be involved in the QT at any time. A replaced team member may not participate in any way unless he is replaced back in.
4. A teammate who died in one game may replace another player so long as (a) he does not mention that game at all.
5. A dead player may still be replaced so long as the team follows 3.
6. You may switch two players who are alive in games ONCE for the duration of Team Mafia 2012. It must be done in D1 or D2.
7. The mod will force replace any player who has not posted within a week of his last post (not including Night). This will come at a penalty to the team.[/spoiler]
Winning the Game, Simple
