Lightning Mafia - Halloween Edition [Game Over]

[Marmot]

Hello everyone, and welcome to the Syndicate's first attempt at a Lightning Mafia (yes, it's a silly name). This game will be hosted on this very site that you are all familiar with. This game has got a Halloween theme to it, because this holiday is just around the corner. This will be a simple game of mafia since speed is of the essence. 2 (maybe 3) baddies, the rest civvies, and we'll be getting down to the old school scumhunting for this game. Thanks SVS for the help to get things started, and thank you all for joining. Please take some time to read the rules below, and ask question if you have them.



Here are the roles!

Trick-or-Treaters (civilians)

1) Role blocker*
2) Protector*
3) Vanilla
4) Vanilla
5) Vanilla
6) Vanilla

*One special modification for this game. The two power roles will rotate to another player on a daily basis AFTER the night period is over and BEFORE the day period begins. If a civvie dies while he/she has one of these roles, the role dies with them. The powers will rotate randomly, but also evenly.

Bullies (baddies) - get one kill each night, have BTSC

1) Vanilla
2) Vanilla



Sidenote - As you can see, this is counting on 8 players playing. If a 9th player joins, they will be added in as an additional civ. If a 10th player joins, they will be added in as a baddie.

These are the rules!

General Mafia Rules

1) All standard mafia rules apply. No double targeting.
2) Do not infodump. Due to time restraints on this game, I may or may not be able to answer questions quickly and effectively, so please use your own best judgment.
3) Don't be an asshat. Asshats can and will be modkilled.
4) No really. Don't be an asshat. I don't think we'll have trouble with that this game.
5) I will be posting in this orange Halloween color. Do NOT us it.
6) No BTSC unless you are specifically granted it and provided a location by me.
7) All night actions MUST be sent to me via PM. There is a 15 minute window during the night phase, and I will be strict on this.
8) If you choose not to use your night action, please PM me saying such.
9) Please do not miss votes in this game. There will be no punishments because you should all be active for participating, but again, deadlines will be strict.
10) If you are posting offtopic, please use OT green for such purposes.
11) If you are a nonplayer, post in NP blue.
12) If you are dead, post in dead red.
13) Make sure to use sarcastic orange at appropriate times if you need to.
14) Rules are subject to change at my discretion.



Game Specific Rules/Mechanics

1) This is a simple mafia game run in the style of the Syndicate. There are no secrets.
2) This game will start at 6:00 PM EST.
3) Day phases will last 1 hour. Night phases will last 15 minutes. Phases may be cut short if votes/actions are all in.
4) Vote changes will not be allowed in this game. You have been warned.
5) Night polls have no effect on the game, if I even bother to use them.



Other

1) Please plan ahead for your night actions. I'd rather not get them all right at the end of the phase if I don't have to.
2) Please ask any question you have before the game begins. My hands will be pretty tied throughout this game, so I may not be able to answer questions effectively.
3) If you do have questions. Bold them and start them with (Host/MM/Newt: blah blah blah) so that I will notice them.

Action Log

Fuck it. It's too hard.

[Marmot]

Day 0 has now officially begun. Feel free to post whatever you want. You have 5 hours and 15 minutes.

[Roxy]

First before splints I win!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[thellama73]

Yay (lightning) game!

[thellama73]

Hi Rox0rz my Sox0rz. What's new with you?

[S~V~S]

Ooo this will be fun~!

I like the bit about ending days early if all votes are in. It would suck to have the voting done in 15 minutes, and then have to wait 45.

[Made]

Present, and ready. Glhf all!

[Marmot]

Let me know if the host color is too difficult to read. I can change if necessary.

[Marmot]

Also, this game is still open to 2 more players if anyone peeking in wishes to join.

[S~V~S]

I can read it fine.

Personally, I'm delighted to have a host color I can actually read in prosilver for once.

I've always wondered why they call the other one lucid lime.

This is a customized skin for this site, built on the Lucid Lime bones. Here is a link to the original Lucid Lime:

Oh believe me. They share your opinion on that. I'm eating an early dinner soon and getting caught up on boardwalk before the finale tonight, so I should only have to be gone while the pups need breaks.

[Roxy]

Hi Rox0rz my Sox0rz. What's new with you?

Nothing spectacular - though I did just return from my sojourn to Ocracoke.

And you my furry faced friend, how are things with you?

linky I should not have made a family dinner night tonight it is what it will be
I will be a rude hostess
It is known

[S~V~S]

Yeah, gonna start my dinner now, too, so I am all done up by 6. And Roxy, it's potatoes

[thellama73]

And you my furry faced friend, how are things with you?

Things are really good, although I feel lousy this weekend due, in part, to a too-festive Friday night. But I am excelling in my work and generally very pleased with life.

[Marmot]

I have heard back from everyone but Boogs, who has been online today. I hope he makes it in.

[Marmot]

Dang Boogs, did you hear me.

[Boogs]

Just got home from the play. Did you send roles out? I thought it starts at 6?

[Marmot]

Just got home from the play. Did you send roles out? I thought it starts at 6?

I will send roles out at 6 when the game starts. Look forward to it.

[Boogs]

K thanks! Let's get spooky but not with my kitty dooky!

[Tangrowth]

Here!

I heard about it sorry I did not make your Friday night soiree

[fingersplints]

I'm only just eating dinner now. Really bad time since I last posted RL, so I'm ready for the funz and my role

[Tangrowth]

Ooo this will be fun~!

I like the bit about ending days early if all votes are in. It would suck to have the voting done in 15 minutes, and then have to wait 45.

Also, this.

[juliets]

I am here and its almost 6! I have to figure out how to cook dinner while playing.

[Made]

This game is going to be stupid hysterical haha.

[thellama73]

It's 6 o'clock and I have not received my role!

[Made]

Also, having not received my role yet, MP, SVS, and Fingersplints should totally get lynched first... I mean Halloween tho....

[Marmot]

Welcome everyone. This game will have minimal flavor to it, but lots of high-speed mafia insanity.

There are 8 of you, young and free, getting your costumes on for Halloween. You all proceed out onto the streets, hoping to fill your sacks with as many sweets as possible. Unfortunately, there are two among you who are not so innocent. These two are here to steal all your candy. Who are these people, hiding their identity under a Halloween mask?


It is Day 1. You have 60 minutes to lynch someone.

[Tangrowth]

Also, having not received my role yet, MP, SVS, and Fingersplints should totally get lynched first... I mean Halloween tho....

You sure you want to do that?

Linki: Yay game!

[S~V~S]

Also, having not received my role yet, MP, SVS, and Fingersplints should totally get lynched first... I mean Halloween tho....

Why?

[Roxy]

Yay!

[thellama73]

Guys, I am trying not to get overly excited too early, but THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVER!

[Tangrowth]

Okay, so who the FUCK IS TRYING TO STEAL MY CANDY??!?!

This injustice will not stand.

[Made]

Stealing Candy? How awful!

linki-SVs- Referring to the poll, I mean who doesn't like halloween?!?!


linki- mp

[Made]

Are votes change able?

[Roxy]

SVS and splints hate Halloween how is that even possible Made?
yet they both are playing a Halloween game?

[thellama73]

Are votes change able?

No, he said so at the beginning.

[S~V~S]

Stealing Candy? How awful!

linki-SVs- Referring to the poll, I mean who doesn't like halloween?!?!


linki- mp

Oh~ yeah, it was OK when i was a kid. I guess had i had kids myself, I probably would have gotten more into it as a grown up.

Linki, I believe they are not, it says in the rules post.

[fingersplints]

Also, having not received my role yet, MP, SVS, and Fingersplints should totally get lynched first... I mean Halloween tho....

D:

I've never been a big costume person, so I never really enjoyed trick or treating. Going up to people's houses I don't know made me nervous and anxious. And I would never eat my candy all right away like most kids, so my sister would end up eating most of it before I got around to it.
Now, it's another drinking holiday, and I haven't drank in years

[Tangrowth]

I don't care much for Halloween either. It was actually always my least favorite holiday, mainly because I hated dressing up. Haven't trick or treated since I was 9 years old.
