Gotham had suddenly become quiet.

Criminals seemingly had crawled back into the shadows of the city, and the police finally found time to spend with their families and straighten out paperwork. But after facing death time and time again from the likes of anarchist psychopaths and serial killers, one would be forgiven if this new silence had induced a pervading sense of paranoia that this was only the calm before the storm.

The storm arrived in Pauli's Diner at exactly 8:13 pm, when a customer interrupted Officer Owens at his booth to report another patron for violating the no-smoking policy. As Owens politely asked the man sitting in the back corner to finish his cigarette outside, an explosion of chemical gas flooded the establishment. When the haze had dissipated only a handful of people remained alive, some uncontrollably manic while others bore gaping wounds where they had clawed out their organs.

At 9:30 pm, the villain known as Scarecrow publicly claimed the event was an experiment of his latest toxin. He emphasized that the victims had only been subject to five ounces, and demanded that the city be evacuated else its whole population be subject to the poison.

Gotham grew noiseless once more as midnight approached. The Rogues Gallery had succeeded in its plan, unaware that a special group of police still remained in the city. As they plotted their sights to the eastern cities of the United States, a familiar hero surfaced.

And thus, the BATTLE FOR GOTHAM began.​

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the city of Gotham.

[tier=t3]Golgari[/tier] and [tier=t1]Collector Elwood[/tier] will be serving as your Game Masters, playing as The Wayne Parents. For those of you who haven't played Mafia before, the basic idea is that the players will be split into two teams: the Uninformed Majority (usually called the innocents) and the Informed Minority (usually called the mafia.) This game takes quite the paradoxical look on these groups, as the Uninformed Majority will be known as The Rogues Gallery and the Informed Minority are the Defenders of Gotham. There are some third-party roles that have their own win conditions as well.

Games are split into two distinct phases: During the Night Phase, this thread is to be considered "locked" and you shouldn't post here. The mafia members will talk privately to determine a person to kill during the night, and some players will use their special ability - called a Night Action - that either helps or possibly hinders their team. All Night Actions should be private messaged to [tier=t3]Golgari[/tier].

After a period of time the thread will "open" and the Day Phase will commence. Players debate who to execute, in hopes that they take out someone on the Mafia team. This isn't as easy as you might think however, as the mafia will be among the crowd convincing you to kill other innocents.

If you're still confused, you should check out the Newbie Snail's Guide and some of our completed games. You may also PM either Game Master with any queries.
  1. All Pokecommunity and Underground rules apply
  2. ONE vote per day phase, you will not be allowed to change your vote after the first.
  3. Please use EXECUTE [PlayerName] to confirm your vote
  4. Abstaining during the Day Phase is not allowed
  5. Missing two executions will result in your immediate execution
  6. For executions, if there would be a tie, RNG will break the tie.
  7. Unless you are a Defender of Gotham, a member of the Court of Owls, or a member of the League of Assassins, you are not allowed to PM anyone but the GM
  8. If you are a member of one of the aforementioned groups, you will only be allowed to discuss the game with your fellow group members in the appropriate Skype chat which will be supervised and created by Collector Elwood and Golgari
  9. All Battle for Gotham discussion should be kept here
  10. If you are DEAD, you are DEAD. Don't haunt the thread with your posts
  11. However, if someone dies, or gets lynched, they get to give ONE deadpost, that doesn't give any information about the game
  12. Getting caught posting during the night phase will automatically kill you
  13. Night actions should be sent to the appropriate GM by PM

I'm currently involved in much more mafia than I can manage at the moment, between the game here, one starting soon on BMGF and a small nonmafia game over there....If there's a sub list for backup players, could you add me to that?
