Philosophy Mafia 2: Electric Boogaloo

#1

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

Specific TSP Game rules -- please read, sometimes people don't and bad things happen:

Standard Rules:

1) Don't talk about the game outside of the game thread if you are not given permission to do so. I will modkill you.

2) Don't quote your role PM or try to discuss with wording or grammar. I will modkill you.

3) Days are 48 hours, nights are 24 hours. Exception: over holidays, the phase will be extended by 24 hours. I have reason to believe this will become applicable during this game.

4) This is a light game, so players have post counts. Players may post 100 times during the day. This restriction is lifted one hour before end of day. Nights will be closed. There may be roles that can exceed or lower these caps. If you go over your post count, I will probably be lenient and only make your action fail. But I might modkill you. Don't do it on purpose or repeatedly or I will modkill you.

5) You may character claim, role claim, and infodump with relative impunity. There may be roles that makes this disadvantaged, but this is also a fun game so roleplaying is encouraged.

6) There are two factions in this game period.

8) This isn't a rule per se, but don't try to match up flavor with roles. The flavor is flavor. Additionally, I randed roles independently of alignment. All roles could be town or mafia. The setup was created so that that would work out without nonsense. Please don't try to create nonsense out of it. If you do, I refer you to the following rule:

9) If you try anything angleshooty, I will warn you once. Then I will modkill you. Don't try to break the game. I'm serious about this.

10) Because of the busier season and tumultuous times in real life, there might be reasons for players to sub out. If this happens, I will request that subs are not discussed.

11) Mechanics:
a) Double targeting is allowed.
b) Self targeting is not allowed where roles don't allow otherwise, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
c) All names submitted by a player are considered to be targets of that player.
d) You will not be told if your action fails or is altered.
e) Ties in day polls will kill someone.
f) LYLO will be announced and votes will be locked / majority will be enabled at that time.
g) If you have questions, direct them to me via pm.
h) All actions are night actions unless obviously not night actions or as otherwise specified.
i) TSP order of operations: JK>[guided action]>busdrive/teleporter>controlled md>random md>roleblock>push>other actions, with time stamp being the determining factor should any other paradoxes occur. This only applies when the intuitive action solve doesn't exist or in any other way I am confused about why actions are broken.

12) Off topic in green, dead players may post one "aw shucks" post in red and then may continue VERY off topic conversations in red SPARINGLY. Please don't push it.

13) The town wins by eliminating all threats to the town. The mafia win by reaching parity with the town.

14) I think that's all, but if you have any questions please pm me. Do not ask me in thread. Do not discuss mod communication.

15) It may be cliched, but this is supposed to be a fun game. These are site rules, but I will be policing a little harder on getting overly toxic in the thread. If you have a difficulty, contact the moderator on duty.

16) reserved for more rules

And some TSP promises:

straight from the signup thread:

1) roles and alignments will not be tied
2) it will actually be light role madness this time
3) this game will contain zero bastard mechanics -- no godfathers, no cops that can get bad result, not even misdirects. straight up kill and be killed
4) no hammer
5) no independents
6) a sizeable amount of memes

Ok, all roles have been sent out. If somehow I messed up and you know about it, please let me know immediately. If you don't have a link to mafia chat, you're town.

Day Zero opens now, all players are limited to 10 posts before EOD. Please submit any Day Zero actions expediently and please post at least once so I know you're around or something. Please don't just treat this as an extention of Day One, this is a time for logistics and saying hi and complaining about the lions losing.

don't have a strong preference for eod besides not morning, voted with host preference but any pm time is fine

#18

The worst possible EOD would be 7 PM for me.

Everything else is fair game.

#19

Hi, I'm confirming my role, well the part of it I can confirm at least

10-12 will be my best time for EoD, while anything before 6 would really be suboptimal

#20

Why is 12am not an option?

I voted 7pm just for this.

I assume 12pm is supposed to be 12am, just based on its position on the poll? If it's not, then I'm changing my vote

Yeah, I made this assumption, but I had to point it out.

Eureka!

#25

I mean, Paprika!

I am one of the MoDs (Moderators on Duty) for this game. If you feel like you need to vent to someone unaffiliated with the game, I'm a good pick. I may reach out at times if things seem to be getting heated, too. In other words, I am here to keep the peace and make sure everything stays chill.

The other MoD is @Justplayingitcool. He'll be by to introduce himself Eventually™.

Have a good game!

#27

I think therefore I post

#28

Evening EDT would be super

#29

Determinism

#30

I am the other MoDs (Moderators on Duty) for this game. Feel free to send your frustrations my way. Like Syn, I may reach out if things get heated as we aim to keep the peace.

Remember the most important rule: Have fun.

#31

I voted 5pm.

Make it euro friendly please \o/

#32

Wasing the acting of the Doc.
Niceing the greeting the you.

#33

Hello? Is it me you're looking for. I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your smile? I must've called a thousand times, to tell you. And I want to tell you so much. But when I call you never seem to be home.

#34

oh i shoulda read this before asking the host questions

#35

uhhh
5 PM is fine

#36

actually, I avoided 8 PM to avoid is being 6.

voted*

#38

how long is day 0?

#39

usually 24 hours but this one might end when the poll tells it to or something

#40

I voted 5pm because determinism, but I can work with just about any of the PM times I think so go crazy gang. The AM times are silly.

#41

alright, so does day one start immediately after or do we can to a n0? sorry, just trying to determine when game starts!

#42

i think it starts based on which eod we choose, so if we choose 8pm it starts 8pm today

#43

probably not going to be a Night 0, very rarely occurs around these parts

#44

will be no night zero, day will start in between the two films in my timmy chalamet double feature (probably at 6:45 PM today approximately) and will end at whatever time is chosen in the poll. The moderator's vote counts for 3.5

#45

Not of the yetting yet.
Ising guessing the coming and going.

#46

does that mean day starts today or??
sorry i'm just confused .-.

#47

day starts in approximately 5.5 hours

#48

ok thanks!

#49

6pm wouldn't be too bad right now but could become a problem for me if I survive for longer than a week. Why don't y'all help me hammer 8pm

#50

I'm voting for 8pm just to stick it to the man
