A Simple Game of Mafia
No fancy custom roles. No flavour or thematics. Nothing but pure mafia.
The uninformed majority, the Town, must discover and kill all the members of the informed minority, the Mafia. Meanwhile, the Mafia aim to outnumber the town and achieve dominance. Nobody in the Town knows the role or alignment of any other player, they must rely on deduction and reasoning to find the Mafia hiding in their midst. Meanwhile, the mafia share a group chat they can use to coordinate and plan and know each others' roles and identities.
The game is divided into two phases. During the Night Phase, the mafia will select one member of the Town to kill and remove from the game. Additionally, any players whose role comes with a special night action can use those abilities then by DMing the game master. During this phase, the thread is considered locked and nobody may post in it. However, the mafia may still use their chat to communicate with each other.
During the Day Phase, the thread is considered open. During this phase the town will discuss with each other who they want to lynch and remove from the game, hoping to kill off a hidden mafia member with their vote. This isn't as easy as it might seem at first however, as the mafia are hidden among the Town and are also able to contribute to this discussion, trying to mislead the town and cause them to lynch their teammates.
Doctor - The Doctor can visit another player, protecting them from death that night.
Nurse - The Nurse also protects who they visit at night, but they also roleblock them.
Tracker - The Tracker can follow another player at night and see who they visit.
Villager - Villagers do not have any night actions.
Silencer - A player the Silencer visits at night cannot post during the next day, even to vote (this does not count as missing a vote).
Mafioso - An ordinary mafia member with no special night action.
2. The Night Phase lasts 24 hours, the Day Phase 48. Do not post in the thread during the Night Phase.
3. Do not share information from your role PM/DM or discuss the details of the game outside of the thread or Mafia team chat.
4. If you die, you're dead. Don't continue to haunt the thread with your posts. The exception to this is a single "death post" that cannot contain any game related information.
5. Post twice per Day Phase.
6. Format lynch votes as [vote] username
7. Failing to vote during two consecutive Day Phases may result in a GM kill.
