Spoiler : Significant Mechanics :

Mail- Unlike in S-FM: What, I could not survive a PM mechanic for a game larger than that, so no PM system. So instead I will be allowing a single 'letter' to be sent per day. The letters will be sent like feedback messages and received each morning. You may sign as anyone in game or as a name that you request to me. Roles, noteable people or funny things are allowed at my discretion.
Prisoners- Prisoners will win with any scum.
Police- Police will share a night chat.

Spoiler : Boring Rules :

Game will start at night.
Night actions must be in a PM to myself by 1 hour before night ends. This will be hard enforced. Reserves will be notified and sought out.
Night will be 24 hours unless I cut it short.
Day will be 24 hours unless I extend due to cutting night short.
Votes will use [vote] system.
Lynch will be (1/2 of game)+1. No mandatory lynch or auto-lynch on most voted.
No outside communication.
Last wills are allowed.
You may post links to videos and gifs and things.
Editing posts will be a modkill.
No claiming COMs or modkill.

[Cryptonic]

First glance, you need to add Prisoner to Invest Pairings and Win Conditions.

[TheDarkestLight]

Cult wins with Mafia? Wut?

[Slaol]

First glance, you need to add Prisoner to Invest Pairings and Win Conditions.

Invest pairing - it is Citizen. Will clarify (done)
Win conditions - it is Evil. Evil is stated.

[TheDarkestLight]

Apparently that wasn't clear. Wouldn't the Cult winning with the Mafia be insanely OP? If they get their 30% thats 6 people. +5 others = 11, which is instant majority and they could lynch anyone they want without fear of loss. I recommend making Evils win with either Cult or Maf, or just having no Cult possible.

*builds in cult*
They would have to convert correctly, which would possibly be Prisoners.
I will make Police immune to culting, and detect Cult conversion attemps. So they are OP masons. Happy?
Town has more than enough power to deal with a Cult+Mafia

The meta has begun, so we have one confirmed role...

Go gimme an RP. We share a time zone so I will send you the night results before each day starts for your update, and we can go over any day events before game that you can be read for.

sweet. its just that i do have a job so the moment we get all night actions i will begin. but you might have a few days where you have to do it yourself. i will try my best to be on but my work scedule is always randomized. most of the time i can be around long enought to rp something up

You can give me pre-done ones. I really don't write RPs. lol.
We will discuss more later.

will do. seeing the current role setup/potental of it i will start how the opening will go

[ika]

i do have a question though

mafia and nutral evils win together

mafia doesnt know who nutral evils are? and do nutral eviles know each other or are they solo?

[Slaol]

tweaked with new Borkbot Setup Requirement Stuff. (minor)

They do not know anything (unless both Neutral Evils were Cultists). They know nothing and must figure it out.

[ika]

it says night immune cant be converted, and police get informed of cult

what about maifa regulars? can they be culted and be both mafia and cult?

[Slaol]

No. Mafia can not be converted. (will clarify, but thoguht it was obvious, lol)

[Damus_Graves]

Ika is a good choice for co-host rp wise. His intro RP for his SFM speaks of great promise.

I should read that, huh?

[ika]

I should read that, huh?

you didnt read it? i spent a lot of time crafting it when im here at night in my room i like to think of random s-fm i could make and rp it out to myself. i also like to make stories up when im board so it fun.

@damus to get praise from you means a lot to me. thank you

[Cryptonic]

This game is basically 6v7 +/- a few because of Citizens/Prisoners.
I'm gonna guess the end result will be 8v10 + 2 benigns, one of which will have anti-town capabilities.
You might want to change that all evils win together, or reduce their numbers. Scum will have no problem getting townies lynched.

the evils do. but theyhave freindly fire if i remember correctly

[Damus_Graves]

I feel as if there are far to many Evils within the setup myself, while yes Friendly Fire is allowed and the Evils do not know each other.
I believe this game would benefit from removing one mafia, to ensure evils are a minority and not an almost majority.

Will ponder not having scum win together.
The general thing is I am not certain they would because if it were the 8vs10 ratio it would be a balanced day vote wise, both sides having a 4 block. Then they have to try and find their allies. Effectively Town 1 vs. Town 2.

Edit: No more scum.

[Cryptonic]

how many possible roles are there in total?

59 counting addition of Prisoner.

that's a lot of roles.
I need you to do me a favor. In M-FM Parking, create a topic for Marshall, Pacifist, Matchmaker, Operator, Shaman, Mime, Snitch, Gossip, Magician, Toxicologist, and Hitman.
Use this:

Format:

Use this template when submitting a new role. The name of your thread should begin with [Role Suggestion].

Role Name:
Alignment:
Game Size(s): You should specify which game sizes this role is designed to fit, S-FM/M-FM/FM etc.
Abilities:
Win Condition:
Intended Purpose: You should specify why this role was created, and what purpose it is designed to fulfil.
Meta-Game Implications: Think carefully about how this affects the synergy of a game.
Possible Cons: Be honest here. Not a single role in Mafia is perfect, that's the point of the game. Specify what you think the limitations of the role are, what needs to be looked at, and what roles this would not work alongside with.
One Sentence Summary: This will appear with your role in the main list to give people an idea of what the role is about.
Additional Notes:


Don't bother including investigation results. This is for forum games, the host of each game will decide investigation groupings.

also, if you plan to do any mandatory day or night events , it would be better if you listed possible outcomes before the game.

[Slaol]

Ugh, those role cards. Could I do one thread for them all? I could do all big role cards in my Slaol's S-FM Stuff thread that already exists.
Nothing is mandatory.

[Cryptonic]

Sure, put them all in one thread.

[Slaol]

Sure, put them all in one thread.

I'll get to this tonight. I'll make one for every role for further +1

[BorkBot]

I've had a discussion with Cryptonic and we decided that we should limit the total number of possible roles a setup can have. Some setups have been getting a bit crazy lately, especially when it comes to trying to make sense of mind boggling OoO's.

The cap for S-FM's is now 25 different possible roles per game, and for M-FM it's 40 different possible roles.

I must ask you to trim your roles list for this setup to a maximum of 40 roles. It'll make it much more manageable for us to judge and find the possible kinks in your setup, and I'm sure players would be less overwhelmed as well.

You could refer to the Setup Requirements thread for some tips on how to go about trimming, under the Role list section.

*kills self*

I'll get to this then.

[Slaol]

Possible roles stated. Everything else in spoilers will be edited soon.

[BorkBot]

Please add detailed rolecards for:
Marshall
Journalist
Blacksmith
Jailor
Nurse
Spy
Snitch
Crier
Bruiser
Thief
Arms Dealer
Joker
Magician
Prisoner
Lawyer
Student
Infestor
(metagame implications, cons and game size not necessary - those are meant for other people who intend to use your roles)
(make sure to mention that jailor and journalist PM their targets to you during the day in the rolecards!)

Please remove all references to roleblocking, enchantress/luring/repelling, witch/manipulating, ventriloquist, matchmaker and toxicologist/poison, cultists/conversion from mechanics, all role option descriptions and night feedback. These roles were removed and this info could lead to confusion.

Can Hidden Town be citizens?

Can Hidden Evil be prisoners?

Rather than leaving it completely open, why not put 2 confirmed citizens and 1 confirmed prisoner?

Does Janitor clear last will? Does coroner see last will? (refer to this in role options)

Does framer affect investigator/detective/lookout results?

Role cards and References to roles no longer in game- Being worked on. Will be fixed this weekend.

Yes.

Yes.

Can do this, I suppose.

Yes. Yes. Will clarify.

Yes. They will be alerted to their potential to do so, and will effect it as long as they put in a command to change it.

[BorkBot]

Yes. They will be alerted to their potential to do so, and will effect it as long as they put in a command to change it.

Can framer choose the exact results they see or is it random? Put this in role options also, because the current description doesn't make it clear.

If it's chosen, maybe make a rolecard for framer to explain exactly how their frames affect detectives and lookouts, because there have been misinterpretations in the past where it was left ambiguous.

I take it framer can't target mafia players?

What do detectives see if their target visits multiple targets? (bus driver / mafia allied with mafioso)

Amnesiac, Student and Infestor choose targets during the day? (mention this in rolecards/options if so)

If the Arsonist incinerates, does his action still go before that of other kills?

If arsonist day-incinerates, can he douse the next night? (add in role options if no)

Does mass murderer kill people who don't move from their home? (add in role options if yes)

Do Lookouts and Detectives see Joker kills? (if not, fix that on OoO)

Do Lookouts and Detectives see amnesiac/infestor/student? (if not, fix that on OoO)

Remove death descriptions that are now obsolete.

Exact. Will do so this weekend.

I am making role cards for every one of my roles. Even obvious and old ones.

Correct. Framer is strictly offensive, will be stated in the role card.

They will see both targets.

Amnesiac is at night. Student and Infestor is during day.

Arson Douse goes before kills, ignition is during kills.

Yes, he can.

Yes.

Joker Kills were moved to Pre-Night chats

I don't understand Lookout/Detective checking amnesiac/infestor/student question.

Cleaning up of obsolete things is coming this weekend.

[BorkBot]

Detective(can see all movement) / Lookout(can see all movement) / Prisoner(can see all movement)

Change to:

Detective(can see 5 and onward) / Lookout(can see 5 and onward) / Prisoner(can see 5 and onward)

8. Miscellaneous 1

a. Arsonist / Framer / Drug Dealer

Change to:

8. Miscellaneous 1

a. Arsonist Douse / Framer / Drug Dealer

Also if amnesiac chooses his target at night, his action comes after night chats open.

Reporter sends article / Night Chats Close

^this doesn't need to be on the OoO. First would be the same as "players submit night actions" ;)

Consider it done. I'm going to do it all Friday (tomorrow) night, but will be fixing all of these as well as all the role cards.

More questions, plz

Ok, just putting suggestions/questions ready so you can take it into account. Will make the approval process faster.
