Design Phase Progress


I'll use this post to inform you of where we're at in the Design Phase.

All card choices have been made!

The game design has begun. I will endeavor to finish the design and have it reviewed within 6 days of today, by July 1.

Roles have been designed, alignments rolled, and roles have been tweaked and rebalanced.

Next steps are to convert role outlines into role cards, do a final balance check, and write a novel's worth of flavor.


Image


Role cards have been drafted. Final balance concerns are being ironed out. We are on schedule!

Rules:


In-Game Behavior


1.
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!


Voting and Deadlines:



1. Voting must be bolded in the form
Vote: Player
- bold tags

Code: Select all

[b]Vote: Player[/b]
or

VOTE: Player vote tags

Code: Select all

[vote]Player[/vote]


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. If the thread is not locked, it's ok for you to post.

6. Once you are dead, you may not post in the game thread again. No"Bah" posts.

7. Deadlines are set at 10 days. Extensions may be granted if there are replacements near deadline, or under other extraordinary circumstances (e.g., site outages, major holidays).

8. Nights will last 48+ hours, rounded up to the nearest midnight or noon US Eastern Time.


Prods and Replacements:


Replacing Out
If you need to replace out of this game, send me a private message about it. Do NOT post that you want to be replaced, or that you have asked to be replaced in the game thread.
I will acknowledge your replacement request by replying to your PM. From that time forward, you are out of the game. Do not make any posts in the game thread.

This is a site rule that can entail penalties if broken. It applies to all mafia games at Mafiascum.net unless the game moderator explicitly states otherwise.



1. Prods will be given if you do not post in
48 hours
.

2. You will be replaced if you either do not respond to a prod, or (at my discretion) if you 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 48 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, unless you are not able to post at all. If a lengthy V/LA is adversely affecting the game (e.g., if you are not able to post minimally during that time), then I 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 reproduce any mod-received PMs. Your flavor is for you to enjoy and you only, until the end of the game.

5. Vocaroos, Youtubes, etc, may not be used to make game-content posts. e.g., do not record a vacoroo with your thoughts about the game and post it.

6. I make mistakes. If you notice I make one, please let me know.

7. 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.

Sample Role PM


State Secretary of Health and Human Services, as played by Bell
Welcome!


You are the
State Secretary of Health and Human Services
(Backup Mod)

Image


Your Cards

Significator: Queen of Swords
- Thoughts and emotions trapped in an endless pattern of negativity, haunted by worry, guilt and regret. To find peace, one must confront the persecutor inside one's own mind. Loss of a loved one.

Card 2: Nine of Swords
- Overly focused on one's fears and anxieties. immobilizing paranoia, eaten by guilt and regret, imagining the worst possible outcomes, irrational fixations on sickness and death

Card 3: Six of Wands
- The glorious results of education and self-development; anticipate a profound breakthrough or revelation that changes things forever.

Abilities:
  • Game Balance Co-Developer
    - It's Role Madness! It's scary! This project could fail spectacularly! Even so, you push forward, tweaking, pruning, and embellishing each role to its final, polished form.
  • Night Action Overseer
    - Where did all these PMs come from? What was the action resolution again? Keeping up with all the night actions is going to require a database!
  • Flavor Expert
    - "Isn't that Tower a bit too Thothian? Crowley had a sick sense of humor." You're up to the task of keeping fferyllt on the flavoricious straight and narrow.
  • Every Player Has A Say
    - Your voice and your vot...oh wait, you don't get a vote!
Win Condition:


You win when the game concludes or ffery has a complete mental breakdown, whichever comes first.


The Tarot Park Development Project win condition:


Win Condition:


You win when all threats to the Tarot Park Development Project have been eliminated.

You remember like it's yesterday, the groundbreaking ceremony for the Lake Phantasia Tarot Theme Park. It was sunny and breezy, perfect weather for an all day summer outing. The entire city council, armed with spades, turned over shovel-fulls of sandy soil and traded congratulatory elbow-bumps. A brass band played Dixieland jazz, and there were even carnival-style booths for kite-making and face painting (well, forehead painting -- we were all masked-up that day, and the ceremony had nearly not happened at all, given the guidelines about large outdoor crowds last year). Coronavirus notwithstanding, every psychic within 50 miles showed up to do assorted readings and there was even a lecture by an occult expert on the meaning of the Major Arcana card journey -- something like that. You hadn't paid all that much attention. Whatever the divinatory means, the psychics had accurately predicted there wouldn't be an outbreak traced to the ceremony.

Image


Today, nearly a year later, several attractions are at or near completion and nearly ready to be unveiled.

The inspiration behind the theme park, Lucia Tavella, daughter of a former mayor and philanthropist, went on a gap-year tour of Europe in 2019 and was inspired by a theme park in Italy. She plans to be on hand for the festivities as the theme park readies for a grand opening.

Image


Even though the construction project has been fairly straightforward and incident-free, there are still quite a few residents and businesses who oppose the entire idea of a theme park in our lovely city. Reasons for opposition vary, and some unlikely alliances have formed. Conservative religious groups, country club members, former factory workers and even the goofy golf and waterslide park owners have been less than thrilled about having a Tarot-themed amusement park in their back yards.

Be that as it may, the Tarot Park is nearly ready to open for business, and you can't wait for the gates to open!

Your colon thanks you for the lack of knowledge.

It's a mountain dew variant found at Taco Bell.

I feel like if I went to a store and asked for a 'Badja blast' I'd get looks.

Then again, if you're getting fast food just don't go to taco bell.

ooo voltage is a permanent thing here too after it won a fan vote contest like 5-8 years ago vs Code red, something white, and something purple.
