Site Rules are in effect. Please familiarize yourself and follow them.
2. Posts consisting purely of insults without game content are not tolerated. I penalize such posts with a strike. Three strikes and you're out. Severe issues will be reported to the listmods.
3. Claiming scum is allowed. Claiming scum with another player (whether as a joke or not) will result in severe consequences for you, and consequences for your team.
4. Play towards your win condition. Gambits are fine, directly harming your own team is not.
5. Loophole abuse is not tolerated.
6. Have fun! There are a lot of great people who play, discuss mafia game theory and practice, and discuss life, the universe and everything, too, here at Mafiascum.net. During and after this game, please take a look around the site and get to know us. I think you'll like what you see.
or else they will not be counted. Unvotes are not required to change your vote, but they are helpful. Please note: I'm using an automated vote counter.
If you don't use the vote tags, be sure to add a colon after the word "Vote".
2. Votes inside of spoiler tags will not be counted.
3. I don't mind if you use nicknames/abbreviations when you vote someone. But if I have no idea who you're voting for, then the vote won't be counted. Please note: the vote counting application may be more finicky about nicknames than I am. If you notice that your vote hasn't been recorded, please let me know.
4. Eliminations require a majority of votes: (number of living players/2) +1, rounded down.
5. If there's no majority at deadline, there's no elimination.
6. When the hammer vote is cast, all players, including the eliminated may talk freely until the final vote count and eliminated player's card-flip have been posted. I will lock the game thread at that time.
6. Once you are dead, you may not post in the game thread again. Not even a "Bah" post.
7. Deadlines are set at 10 days on Day 1 and 7 days for subsequent game days. and Extensions may be granted if there are replacements near deadline, or under other extraordinary circumstances (e.g., site outages, major holidays).
Prods and Replacements:
1. Prods will be given if you do not post in
36 hours
.
2. You will be replaced if you either do not respond to a prod, or need to be prodded more than 3 times total. You may request for a player to be prodded at any time. Prods requested when a player has been absent for less than 36 hours do not count for replacement purposes.
3. If you are V/LA (on vacation/have limited access), make sure I know. If you are V/LA for more than a week, I suggest requesting replacement, but it's not required. If a lengthy V/LA is adversely affecting the game (e.g., if you are not able to post minimally during that time), then your mod may replace you.without penalty.
Misc.
1. Dark Blue (#004080) is the color I will use for mod posts. Please don’t use this color or otherwise try to make your posts look like mod posts.
2. You can talk about the game in the private threads given to you via PM, assuming you were given one. Otherwise, please refrain from talking about this game outside of this thread, and don't talk about other games inside of this game. This is a sitewide rule. See announcement here.
3. No editing, deleting, using invisible texts, write in code, using font sizes less than 70, etc...
4. Don't quote or talk about any mod-recieved PMs. Your flavor is for you to enjoy and you only, until the end of the game.
5. I make mistakes. If you notice I make one, please let me know.
6. Questions are vastly preferable to Modkills. If you're thinking about to do something that you're unsure is within the letter or spirit of these rules and the game of mafia, then ask me privately about it first.

This is the Pregame Phase. I'll send out Role Private Messages (PMs) during the next few hours. Please respond to your Role PM with your alignment (Town or Mafia) and Role Name to confirm that you have received it.
You have 48 hours from the time I send you the Role PM to respond. If you cannot respond by then, I will seek a replacement.
Once 8 of the 9 players have confirmed via PM reply, the game will begin!
I'll update this post as we progress through Pregame.
All Role PMs
will go out shortly
have gone out!
8 of 9 players have confirmed.
Day 1 will begin momentarily!

This is just a reiteration that it's against the rules to refer to other games that are ongoing. Be careful going forward that games you mention have been finished and the game moderator has declared a winner. More about the rule here.

The replacement rules for Newbie games mean that the weekend counts as a single day for prod purposes, but this game day would end before prods could go out. For this reason, I'm going to add a day to the deadline, and go ahead and issue a needed prod.
Kazyan has been prodded.
Revised deadline: March 23, Midnight US Eastern Time
Countdown: (expired on 2021-03-22 21:00:00)

@ffery is this still in effect? or the old one since kaz came back?
Yes, this one is in effect.

Players, you're encouraged to keep playing newbies as long as you like, of course, but I humbly suggest trying out different games and styles, if you're brave enough and feel like checking out other game styles and sizes!

It's unfortunate that Creative fake claimed - we weren't even going to vote him from my POV lol.
I'm not really sure that forum is for me tbh. I had some free time so it was interesting to try, but it takes soooooo long.
Was nice playing with you guys though. Was an experience.
Before playing here at mafiascum, I used to play forum games on much faster-paced sites: 12 to 24 hour days/12 hour nights. I still play that format once in a while, but after not enjoying the slower pace initially, within a couple of games I actually preferred a slower pace and not having a mafia game eat up ALL of my spare time for a week or two. Another "advantage" (some may not agree!) is that it's possible to play more than one game at a time on mafiascum due to the slower pace.
If there are aspects of this game that you enjoyed, it might worth trying another game or so and see if you adapt to the pace.

In post 1172, CreativeName wrote:I kind of figured it was wheme/kaz at the end as no one was hammering me and so that meant both scum were already on my wagon :S, like even if I was scum I would have quickhammered to stop talking
I wanted to talk about your fake claim and what went wrong with it. There were two main issues:
The person you fake claimed wasn't around to react to it. How SAMCRO reacted to a fake guilty could have given you and the other town players some info for figuring out his alignment. Although if he'd been around on Day 2, his play might have helped in that respect anyway. But, with his absence, the most valuable data from a fake guilty wasn't going to be available.
Even though SAMCRO wasn't around, the way other players reacted was also potentially alignment indicative, though if there had been a tracker or friendly neighbor in the game, they might have counterclaimed you. Being able to look at how other players reacted, how quickly they voted etc., was data, though. If you had treated the fake claim as a gambit, and revealed that after everyone had a chance to react/vote, it might have shaken things up and resulted in a scum elim.
You didn't play the fake as a gambit, though. And that's often a recipe for two mis-elims -- the town player you got elimed and yourself!
