Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Introduction

Welcome to Hogwarts! In a moment, you will enter through this door and join your classmates. But before you can take your seat you must be sorted into your houses. These are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Now, while you're here your houses will be your family. Any achievements will earn you points, any rule-breaking and you will lose points. At the end of the year, the house with the most points will be awarded the house cup.
- Minerva McGonagall, Head of Gryffindor House

Welcome to this Harry-Potter based, Mafia game organized by me! If you are familiar with mafia games, then good for you. If not, then do not worry. I will tell you how to struggle in this game. Although heavily based on a mafia game, this game is also heavily modified to fit the Hogwarts topic. Enjoy yourself.
​

Game Overview

This game is based on mafia, which have roots in EpicMafia. In this game, forum members will play as one of the following roles:

Headmaster (Albus Dumbledore) - will be the one to make the final decisions and approve decisions from both sides of the game. Each side will have a "leader" that must report to the headmaster the final decision of their side. The headmaster will be me.

Staff and Students - this consists of the staff members and students. House masters fall into this category. The people in this role are the ones who will vote to see who will be jailed and executed.

Voldemort's Followers - people in this role can be anyone. Those who play in this role are still like staff and students, except that during nighttime they will have a meeting of who will be murdered. They should do their best to act as regular staff and students as possible.

Game Phases

There will be 4 phases in this game. Each phase will be described below:

• Sign-up - this is the phase of when members who want to join shall post here to say that they do. Sign-ups will be finished once the headmaster thinks that it's time. To those who want to join, they must have this word somewhere in their post: Accio. Failure to do, and your sign-up will be ignored.

• Role Configuration - in this phase the headmaster will confirm the members who have joined. Once confirmed, roles will be handed out via PM. Be careful on making your role secret. Only select staff and select students will be named. Others will be students, normal students. The 4 house masters will be revealed and cannot be jailed, murdered, or executed.

• Start - in this phase, the game starts. This will be split into 2 main-phases: Daytime and Nighttime. After daytime and nighttime has finished, it will be considered a "day".

Daytime

- this time, the sun will be in the sky. It will be bright outside. It has 2 other sub-phases:

• Morning - the start of the day. During this time everyone must go to their respective classes. No-one should post in this thread, because that will be considered "loitering in the halls" and is a suspicious act. Prefects and house masters can post in the thread during this time.
• Afternoon - during this time, you can post in this thread to discuss who should be jailed and/or executed. If there are any "suspicious act" that happened during either in the morning or the night, house masters shall also discuss what should be done to the person jailed.

Nighttime

- this time, the sun will be down. It will be dark outside. It has 2 other sub-phases:

• Evening - the discussions in the afternoon shall be continued. Also, at this time evil staff and students shall also start voting on who to be murdered. They should not post in here other than voting on who to jail and/or execute as students and staff. Evil staff and students must have a way of communication for their evil-doings.
• Night - Everyone will be asleep. Anyone who posts here shall be jailed as that will be considered as a suspicious act. The leader of evil staff and students should submit to the headmaster the person who is murdered.

Status

- there are 5 statuses in this game.

• Normal - those who are in perfect condition.
• Jailed - those who are jailed can post here and say that they did nothing wrong to prove themselves.
• Executed - people who are jailed are the only persons that can be executed. They will be executed because they have been proven guilty. Innocent executed people will be highlighted in green and those who are guilty will be highlighted in red. Those who are executed cannot post in this game anymore.
• Murdered - these are the people who are murdered by Voldemort's followers. Their names will be highlighted in blue. Those murdered cannot post in this game anymore.
• Petrified - petrified people cannot post in the thread for 2 days (2 complete daytime and nighttime cycles, not literal days). Their names will be highlighted in grey.

• Victory - will be achieved if the following conditions are met:

For staff and students - all evil staff and students, revealed and unrevealed, are either jailed, executed, or murdered.
For evil staff and students - if unrevealed staff are either executed or murdered.

The headmaster will be the one to announce if either one of the conditions are met.
