The Syndicate

Last Man Standing 3
Chaos... is a Ladder

Roles (19):

Bipolar RabbitBear - Uses a randomly selected ability every night. The old champion Bipolar Bear was experimented on a lot, and as a result became considerably more unpredictable… SECRET.

Block - Blocks a player's power every night.

Cupid - Will choose two players at the beginning of the game. Whatever those players' roles are, they die with each other. Once the original lovers have died, Cupid is free to link another two players. If Cupid dies, the curse dies with him.

Curandera - May heal / protect a player every night. Can resurrect a player once in the game.

Death - Death never changes. Can kill or resurrect every night.

Ghost Illyria - An old LMS champion. Kills every even night, inheriting the roles of her victim for every odd day. Can decide at any point to sacrifice her even kill and permanently take on her odd night power.

Ghost Switcheroo - Every night, will choose a number of players equal to the round number. Those players will have their roles replaced, if not by each other's, by random dead players'. After death, may still send messages to other players through the host, and even use his power (switching a decreasing number of players every night until he fades away).

Kenny - Will return to life a day and a half after his first death.

Messenger - Can send messages to a different player through the host every night. The player will have the option to reply the following night.

Milton Conrad - Killer of KAOS. Traditional serial killer role, but old age has taken its toll on him. Kills on odd nights only. The very first Last Man Standing from Get Smart Mafia.

Mystery Man - Is very mysterious.

Plague - Immune carrier to a deadly virus. The virus dies with the role.

Saffron - Every night, chooses two players. The first player will have to vote for the second in the next poll.

Seth - May strip players of their powers, and hand them to other players. Seth won't be made aware of what the powers are.

Team (2) - Has BTSC. Can win together. If one of the teammates is killed, the killer will take their place.

Time Bomb - Will die in Day 5 unless cured or switched. If NKd, the killer will die with him. If lynched, the last person to vote for him will die as well.

Ying Yang Twins (2) - When one is targeted, the other will be affected instead.

Past games for reference:
Last Man Standing.
Champion: Illyria, the Even Killer.
Last Man Standing 2: A Return to Chaos.
Champion: rabbit8, the Bipolar Bear.

For those who have never played, yes, the point of the game is to kill everybody else. It's a silly game, but also ridiculous amounts of fun. The first one was especially good, and even though I hosted, it's probably the most fun I've ever had in Mafia. The second game was a bit trickier because I didn't have a stable internet connection and it was a mess to host, but I don't think it turned out too bad .

Last Man Standing is all about embracing the chaos. You probably won't start out with the same role you'll die as, that's why the Switcheroo role (a staple of these games) is so important. There will be lots of scheming and backstabbing, be sure of that. Just make sure it goes in your favor. All is fair as long as you make it another day.

YAY!!!!

LMS One= One of my favorite games ever

Looks awesome!!

I can't wait! Especially since I've never participated in either of the previous LMS games and they sounded like a lot of fun.

A lot of the roles may seem familiar. I took an early draft of LMS2 (when it was meant to be a 30 player game) and tweaked several of the ultimately cut roles to shape this. In the end, the only roles from previous games that are turning are the champions (Bipolar Bear and Even Killer, but both with new extras), Death (who has been in every game) and the Switcheroo (who was never not gonna make it, but still different). There's many other type of roles that I like having on my games, but Death is the only carbon copy. I guess there's also more vanilla-type roles this time, but I think it's fairly balanced.

Milton Conrad was the serial killer role and sole winner of the first game I hosted (Cabin Fevah won as MC in Get Smart Mafia). Saffron was my role in Firefly Mafia hosted by SD. I wanted to have a poll influencing role, so I figured, why not make it a tribute to one of my favorite games?

I play every game as if I'm a LMS serial killer, so I would probably enjoy this one.

btw, SVS, I just noticed you've been 2nd place in every Speed Game I've hosted Maybe fourth will be the charm??

Oh Lord, lets hope so~ I wanted it so bad in LMS 1 I was like all "wah" pouty lip after I didn't win lol.

GET PUMPED

Hello there! Welcome to The Syndicate!

And I am definitely pumped about this game, it looks super cool!

This game sounds like it was literally made for me...lezzgo...

Linki~ oh no.....not nisani.....

I have some important questions about this game.

Does the person targeted by the Saffron know that he has been targeted? Or is the vote stealthily replaced by the host when resolving vote counts?

What if a Team member dies and gets revived? Does he re-join the team?

Do players know if they are targeted by Cupid?

Is the Messenger anonymous when sending messages?

If the Messenger sends a message to one of the Yin Yang Twins, does the switch still happen?

How do Saffron targets interact with Yin Yang Twins?

Can Ghost Illyria inherit passive roles (like Kenny)? What happens if he inherits Team or Yin Yang?

If a Team member is killed, the killer takes their place, but does the killer keep their power in addition to becoming a Team member?

What if two players kill the same Team member?

Does the Time Bomb die at the beginning or end of Day 5?

If one of the Yin Yang twins is blocked, does the switch still happen?

Does Ghost Illyria choose from all roles he has inherited, or can he only choose the role of his last victim?

If Kenny is resurrected by Death before his power goes into effect, does he lose his power or keep it?

When someone revives, do we know whose power activated it (eg this player was revived by Death, or this player was revived because of his Kenny power)

If Ghost Switcheroo targets Kenny on the night that Kenny dies, does the original Kenny still revive?

If Kenny is killed and blocked on the same night, does he still revive?

Oh man the game won't even start for months and I'm already getting aapje'd Some of these are made up on the spot and I may change my mind by the time it's time to host, but I'll give it a go

Yup, they're told who to vote before the day begins.

What if a Team member dies and gets revived? Does he re-join the team?
I'm gonna say no if they're night killed and replaced, yes if they're lynched.

Do players know if they are targeted by Cupid?
Nope.

Is the Messenger anonymous when sending messages?
I will leave that up to the player sending the messages. No obligation to reveal himself.

If the Messenger sends a message to one of the Yin Yang Twins, does the switch still happen?
Yes.

How do Saffron targets interact with Yin Yang Twins?
Well since it's not a direct target, they'll just be made to vote for whomever Saffron meant.

Can Ghost Illyria inherit passive roles (like Kenny)? What happens if he inherits Team or Yin Yang?
No passive roles.

If a Team member is killed, the killer takes their place, but does the killer keep their power in addition to becoming a Team member?
Yes.

What if two players kill the same Team member?
Umm lol. Only one will have actually killed them, so the first.

Does the Time Bomb die at the beginning or end of Day 5?
They will die in the lynch post.

If one of the Yin Yang twins is blocked, does the switch still happen?
That doesn't really affect anything, does it?

Does Ghost Illyria choose from all roles he has inherited, or can he only choose the role of his last victim?
Last victim.

If Kenny is resurrected by Death before his power goes into effect, does he lose his power or keep it?
Lose it. First death only.

When someone revives, do we know whose power activated it (eg this player was revived by Death, or this player was revived because of his Kenny power)
Haven't completely made up my mind on this yet.

If Ghost Switcheroo targets Kenny on the night that Kenny dies, does the original Kenny still revive?
Stop fucking with my brain! lol. Kenny won't revive if Kenny isn't Kenny.

If Kenny is killed and blocked on the same night, does he still revive?
Can't block a dead player. Yes.

Good questions, Nisani. Good to get some of these things out of the way early But honestly I hadn't thought about most of them before. You'll know what's what when the game begins for real.

Woah, is Nisani secretly aapje reincarnated? :P

Seriously though, good questions.

Awesome game is awesome. RIco - you should let illy know you have a role named after her - she may even break her mafia break and play it.

also - was about to ask who let the dutchie in?

This seems really cool! If I'm free at the time it goes up I'll definitely try to play!

Now please.

LMS2 was fun. I think I was the bipolar bear once. Was a fun role
