The Syndicate

Original Post:

Town:
1 Oracle - Upon death, reveals a player's current role. Cannot target themselves to be revealed. Does not activate upon lynch.
1 Doctor - Protects a player from dying each night.
9 Vanilla Towns

Mafia:
1 Disguiser - Kills a player, assumes control of their account.*
2 Vanilla Mafias

This game features a smaller, but still original story that takes place before the events of Phenon Mafia

Players will PM me their entries once the game is finalized and signups are open.

There is no reveal upon death of any kind


*So to address the elephant in the room, I personally havent played a SockPuppet game before, but by my understanding, it's an account given to hide a name, typically in a themed, roleplay game. I wanted to use this concept and use this disguiser role. As the host i would of course make sure any result relevant information, or in other words what the power role's night submissions were, is kept secret as to not allow the mafia to have that advantage. I will also keep all conversations between player and host to a personal Quicktopic created for each player.

Sound fun?

So to expand on this now: players will be given a sockpuppet account, the names currently will just be the phonetic alphabet, with portraits being the corresponding character. This can change if people are interested in submitting a portrait of a scientist/bodyguard/normal person for themselves. (It doesn’t have to be good I promise)

This game will have light flavor text, and it will include the following:
-a dead chat for dead players to discuss between themselves but no one else.
-a spoiler chat where you can hangout with me and watch the madness
-no role reveals upon death
-Special recognitions at the end

Rules:
-Days will last 48 hours. Nights will last 24 hours. The thread will be closed for the night phase.
-All votes will be changeable and must be cast in the poll to count.
-Lynch ties will be decided randomly.
-“No Lynch" will be a viable poll option
-No account claiming, aka your actual forum account.
-The Mafia will be given BTSC at all times unless they are dead.
-The game will have a Day 0/Pregame for players to check in, etc.
-Mafia will have the option to select who will be what role during the Pregame. In other words, they are not assigned a role by the host.
-Anyone on the mafia team may perform the Nightly Mafia Kill.
-No Jesters, Cults, Alignment changing, Mod Bastardry, Obliterators, or BTSC spying
-Win conditions may be revoked from players at the host’s discretion. Typically based upon participation.
-All Player to Host communication regarding questions about the game, actions, etc should be done through Private Messaging.
-Keep game-sensitive details inside the game.
-Do Not edit or delete posts.
-Death will grant you one spoilered "bluh" post, which may not contain game-relevant information.
-No OOC or Dead Chat in the Game Thread. Only players and the host(s) may post.
-Refrain from ciphering or concealing posts. This includes writing in the same color as the background.
-Please, this is a game. Take it easy, play to have fun, but play to win! We all want to have fun. Remember that.

Hello fellow scientists, it doesn’t appear we will be filling before the holiday season, signups are open as always but I want to say we’ll more than likely start after the new year

So it’s been brought up of possibly trying to start sooner, maybe even today!

It would require me scrapping the vanilla roles and making it a smaller game, I’ll be PMing the replacements and then confirming everyone who wants to play

Huzzah! we have 9 players! i will be sending out roles. signups are still open for another 6 people so please signup/accept your invitation if you already are signed up!

For anyone with no interest to play, you may join me in the Spoiler Chat, simply message me about wanting to be in it

Attention all players, there has been an issue with Quicktopics, please send me a PM with your Topic Link or if you are even able to go to it

new ones are being made and sent out accordingly

thank you
