It's a test of attrition, manipulation, deduction, and plain ol' luck that leaves many staring in awe at the feats many previous winners have accomplished during the ongoing tournament. Are you going to be the one to lie through your teeth to victory? Or maybe you are looking to backstab your allies in order to take the win for yourself?

○ The Mechanics:
There shall be three brackets with players slotted into them. Each bracket is going to play each game in a rotation previously set by the Tournament Masters. Each game shall have previously set objectives that each player has the opportunity to achieve in order to gain points, outside of their win objective. These objectives have a pre-determined amount of points that shall be awarded upon objective achieved. These points shall be calculated together and the player with the highest amount of points shall be declared the Mafia Master with all the bragging rights that comes with. Its every man out for himself in this no holds bar tournament where only one has the ability to say that they are the Mafia Master of their generation. Lie, cheat, and persuade whomever stands in your way of victory in a land where there is no price for second place. The individual game mechanics have been designed by Slaol and hidden to test each players mettle. Be observant as anything may happen.


○ Setups:
Setup One: An Unsuspected Bloodbash
_{This setup is one of the most gruesome I have ever set my eyes upon. No matter what way you turn, no matter which alley you stumble down there will always been a different boogeyman waiting to gorge himself upon you. Keep a mind on your feet or you'll find yourself six feet under with no one to shed a tear on your corpse. Can you survive the night?}

Setup Two: A Deadly 30 Years
_{Face off against the Mafia during their own reign of power. Will you submit to their oppression or can you band together to put an end to their long held reign of tyranny? If this weren't enough to fill your nights with terror there is a darker power slumbering beneath the streets of New York City just waiting for the right moment to seize control when everyone least expects it. Its a classic face off between the Citizens of New York, The Ever Brutal Mafia, and A Darker Power where everyone has to be suspicious of the other. Step lightly Citizen, you are not the only benign person that wants something for themselves.}

Setup Three: A Week to Forget
_{With the Mafia destroyed and the Crazy Killers locked up it seemed safe for every Citizen out there in the world. There was no longer any threat to them and they could sleep easy knowing they drove out the evil deeply rooted within their Town. If only that were true. There is a new force of darkness preparing itself for a long siege to power. I hope you are up to the task of finding out just who among you is still in favor of peace and who is in favor of conversions.}

BTW, just watch all the players with lots of points use their -prefer and -blacklist commands to get the roles that give out the most possible points. Or that provide the easiest way to get points.

Does it? I haven't played ranked cause it's dead. So I wouldn't know.

[Slaol]

It won't be Ranked, exactly, but Prefer and Blacklist are now disallowed.
Use of them will negate the points earned in the game they are used in, as well as your highest point scoring game. This will be your 2nd highest if you use them for your best game.

[creedkingsx]

Does it? I haven't played ranked cause it's dead. So I wouldn't know.

Either way, I am pretty sure it is disallowed.

The clan doesn't work cause my clan is about ladder. Also I don't have many friends. I don't know why, but they always call me an asshole for some reason...

Btw, prizes are quite...underwhelming. Taking 3rd place in 45-people group and only +300 points? Sure, it's all about fun in the first place but you could double those prizes easily:P

Edit: Damn, my 100th post is about me being unhappy with something xD

But you get bragging rights.

"Oh hey I'm the third best player at SC2 Mafia!" the third place winner said.
"Oh yeah well I'm the best!" said the first place winner.

[Cryptonic]

300 points is like 20 wins as town. Pretty good for a handful of games.

[TheDarkestLight]

I just realized you get 2 points for leading mislynches...
Does this only count for scum?

[creedkingsx]

I think the achievements are too much and cluttering.

stop saying things I think you thought thief.

It should just be total points awarded from all games = winner lmao. Isn't the ingame point system balanced? HMM!?!?!?!

[Chuck and Bob]

As one person. By the way, shouldnt we also put our SCII names here? How will you know who is who.

Most of us know who each other from the site. But for you, yes, it would be extremely helpful.

I shall stop your game from starting, forever!

[Slaol]

I think the achievements are too much and cluttering.

For individual roles? The decision to add them was that without role (gameplay) achievements then if Town wins we would get a lot of people with the same scores. If this manages to happen in all games then a lot of people will tie. They are less, and basically tie breakers.
