Jackofheats2005, TonyStarkPrime, and Seanzie. All of whom were part of the Mafia faction. The following night-kill was unavoidable and mandatory.

Town

Town 1 (Nanook)

Your alignment is Town.

Once per game, on any day phase, you can gift another player coffee. This will grant them an additional charge to a non-fatal ability of their choice. They will not receive it until the end of the day phase. The player who receives Coffee has the option of gifting it to someone else on the next day-phase if they do not decide to use it for themselves by the end of the night.
Day Processing

You don't have any more abilities.

Town 2 (ilario)

Your alignment is Town.

Three times per game at night, you can choose a player to visit. You must attempt to use all of your charges by the end of night 4.
Level 2 Processing

You don't have any more abilities.

Town 3 (Gavial)

Your alignment is Town.

Once per game at night, you can neighborize any player publicly agreeing with any of your posts on the previous day. This will grant you a temporary non-anonymous BTSC chat with them. The neighborhood will last a full (Day + Night) cycle.
Level 4 Processing

Twice per game at night, you can send a player a message. Messages cannot exceed 200 words.
Level 2 Processing

Town 4 (Falcon45ca)

Your alignment is Town.

Once per game at night, you may arrest another player. They will be removed from the game for the next day phase only. They will not be able to vote nor be vote-able, nor will they be able to post or do anything.
Level 5 Processing

If your action fails, then you will gain back the charge and be able to use it again.
Level 5 Processing

Town 5 (Dyson Sphere)

Your alignment is Town.

On night 2 you may target 3 players at once. If all 3 are your alignment, your action will fail. If at least one of them is not your alignment, you will be informed of this. You may not self-target.
Level 4 Processing

You don't have any more abilities.

Town 6 (Enderwiggin)

Your alignment is Town.

Twice per game at night, you can detect how many people visit or target you in the night, not including yourself. This cannot be re-directed onto another player.
Level 5 Processing

You don't have any more abilities.

Town 7 (RondoDimBuckle)

Your alignment is Town.

Twice per game at night, you can protect and role-block (prevent them from doing anything) a player. It is not possible for you to attempt the role-block or protection in part only.
Level 1 Processing

You don't have any more abilities.

Town 8 (Lime Coke)

Your alignment is Town.

Twice per game at night, any non-fatal night actions targeting you will instead target the player who targeted you. This does not work on abilities targeting more than one player. You must attempt to use this twice before Night 4, or you will die.
Level 2 Processing

You don't have any more abilities.

Town 9 (Alison)

Your alignment is Town.

Twice per game at night, you can discover if a player used any active abilities in the current and past phases. You do not learn what those abilities were or when exactly such abilities were used; only that they were used.
Level 5 Processing

You don't have any more abilities.

Town 10 (Scotty)

Your alignment is Town.

Once per game at night, you may force a player to target another player. If they have multiple abilities, then only the first one (top-to-down) is chosen. This ability may fail subject to host interpretation of how this ability interacts with other abilities (such as multi-targeting abilities, where this ability will fail). Killing actions or abilities are never affected.
Level 1 Processing

You don't have any more abilities.

Mafia

Mafia 1 (Seanzie)

Your alignment is Mafia.

Twice per game at night, you can commute to become nontargetable, causing nearly all abilities to fail if they target you.
Level 2 Processing

Fake Claim: Make it "Once per game". Even with that, you may want to exercise caution claiming this. If it is not suitable then replace with "You have an automatic bullet-proof vest. This will protect you from a single kill. You won't know if your vest was used up at any point." and make it "Level 5 Processing".

Once per game at night, you can throw a ball at a player. If it returns to you, then that player was targeted by 2 or more players (not including yourself). Additionally, if the ball is returned, you can throw the ball again. Note that players who self-target with an ability, or don't use an ability, are considered to have targeted themselves.
Level 5 Processing

Fake Claim: As-is. If this is not suitable, then replace with "You don't have any more abilities".

Mafia 2 (TonyStarkPrime)

Your alignment is Mafia.

Twice per game, you can learn the name of the first player to visit you in the night (if any). In the event that multiple players have visited you, only the visiting player(s) with the highest level of processing in their ability will be shown.
Level 5 Processing

Fake Claim: As-is.

Once per game, you may enhance the mafia kill to ignore any and all protection abilities.
Level 3 Processing

Fake Claim: You don't have any more abilities.

Mafia 3 (Jackofhearts2005)

Your alignment is Mafia.

Make a list of the players by the end of night 1. You will then learn, each night in order, the smilies and abilities (but not alignment) of those you visit. Night 1 you will visit the first player on the list, unless the first player is dead in which case you will visit the second player, and so on. This will occur until the end of night three; presuming no interference or deaths, you would have checked the top three players of the list you submitted on night 1.
Level 4 Processing

Fake Claim: Twice per game at night, you can detect a player's abilities, but neither alignment nor similes.

If you die, your role-card reveal is never shown.
Level 5 Processing

Fake Claim: You don't have any more abilities.

~~Public Setup Information:


-General:


Each player gets two completely unique smilies, and an additional alignment smilie. Here are the alignment smilies for the Mafia and the Town:

Your alignment is Town.

Your alignment is Mafia.

There may or may not be a third party.

Most non-alignment smilies have abilities or effects/passives. Aside from a smilie that doesn't give an ability or effect, there are no duplicate abilities. Anyone with a smilie that doesn't give an ability for that smilie will have this written:

You don't have any more abilities.

All active abilities have limited shots or something to that effect. Some may have more limitations. All abilities, active or not, are at least somewhat inspired by the smilie that has it. Additionally, for player & host convenience, all active or passive abilities have an assigned "Processing Level" to it to give you an idea as to when your ability occurs. See the spoiler for full details.
You are informed if your abilities fail, including abilities that may not normally generate feedback. If your night abilities fail for whatever reason, either due to interference or due to ability limitation or otherwise, you would receive something like this as feedback:

Your ability/night-action failed.

You may claim abilities/smilies in this game. You may mass-claim too, but if you do then I would begin to wonder whether you're a player or rather an agent of Chaos. In other words, there is no strict soup-kill or rule preventing claiming. There is no guarantee of negatives or benefits from mass-claiming BUT it could back-fire in a number of ways in varying degrees. Probably even more ways than I can think of. Or someone just straight soul-reads me and my past few month's occasional work into this setup and throws all non-town into oblivion.

I will not be commenting on the nature of fake-claims for non-towns.

-Rules:

Firstly, a reminder of the site/community rules:

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑ Remember that the premier rules in any Syndicate Mafia game come straight from the site rules. Review those rules below, and direct any concerns you may have to the host or moderator(s) on duty.

[Link] Rules and Guidelines on The Syndicate

Also always be mindful of the culture of respect that must be maintained in all Syndicate spaces at all times, to include this game thread and any external communication spaces relating to the game. Players must be respectful to one another, to the game host, to the members of the staff overseeing the game, to the game itself by way of its rules and spirit, to the Syndicate community in general, and ideally also to themselves. Respect is never optional. See our full manifesto on our culture of respect below.

[Link] A Syndicate Mafia Culture of Respect

Please remember that there is always a game "Moderator On Duty" (MoD) or "Game Facilitator" assigned to every game on The Syndicate. They are there to listen to your problems during the game and can potentially assist you if you have any issues with another player or the host. Their purpose, in that aspect, is to make the game more enjoyable for everyone involved while also more respectful if need be.

Secondly, here are my personal game rules. If you break these, you likely won't get administrative action from staff (outside of maliciously disrespecting the host and/or other players when doing so) but you may suffer in-game consequences if I deem it reasonable.

You don't *have* to read my personal rules, as most of it is just the unwritten rules of Forum Mafia written down, but if you want to make sure you don't step on any toes then read it. It also contains my definitions of angle-shooting and bastardry (towards the end of it) which may be relevant to you even if you knew all the rules.

Link: Martin's General Setup Rules & Clarification

-Mechanics/Other:

~~~Phases:
Day 48h / Night 24h
-SoD/EoD will be at 4 PM (EST).
-There is no night 0; the game begins on day 1.
-During the night, the thread will be closed.
-Actions are submissable up to 1 hour prior to an EoD/SoD.
-There may be temporary slight adjustments to SoD/EoD/Day/Night times or lengths if I run into a very unexpected scheduling issue. When I host for a set time, I expect myself to be there and able.

~~~Day Elimination/Execution/Chop (EEC):
-There is no single term I use when referring to EEC's. I may end up even using the word "Deletion/Deleted" instead at times on a whim.
-EEC's are done by vote in a poll at the top of the page. It will be in a plurality-based format.
-The very moment the EoD time hits :00 on my computer is when I will refresh the page, screenshot the poll, and then post it + lock the thread. Role flip(s) after death will be posted soon after as well processing as any day actions.
-Any ties for EEC will be determined arbitrarily by whoever posted first in the game. The person who posted last will be the day's EEC.
-There will be an option to skip. However, the number of players voting to skip must be greater than the total players voting to chop anyone (Ex: 2 votes on A and 1 vote on B means 4 votes are needed to skip).
-Votes are never locked unless you were forced to vote by an ability. This doesn't mean that there is a vote-forcing ability in the game.
-It is recommended that you make a post with the [VOTE: ] aubergine tag whenever you do vote in the poll. It is not required, however.

~~~Factional kill Mechanics:
-Members of a faction that can kill may vote who to kill each night.
-In the event of a tie among the votes, the voter with the longest Syndicate name arbitrarily wins the vote.
-Factional kills are mandatory. If there are no votes, the kill will be randomized among non-faction players.
-Factional kills are assigned to be done by a faction member. If there are no volunteers, this is randomized.
-Factional kills don't cost a player their night-action. If they used one of their abilities and did the kill in a night, a typical tracker role could see them visiting two targets at the same time.
