S-FM: LBP Small-Town Mafia (13P)

[Auckmid]

Overview

The setup follows the small-town rules, which are as follows:

-Each player will be randomly assigned both ONE character role and ONE faction role from the list below. Every one of the thirteen given character roles will appear EXACTLY once upon game startup

-Factions roles determine the players win condition, in addition to any other abilities they might get, such as mafia night kills. Faction roles are private.

-Character roles give each player additional abilities to assist them, such as being able to heal players as the doctor. Character roles have no effect on alignment. Character roles are public, which means at the beginning of day 1, the character role assigned to each player will be revealed to everyone. As such, everyone will know which player was given the doctor ability, but will not know whether the doctor is pro-town or pro-mafia.

• Kills through this ability bypass any protection/healing

Factions Roles


Mafioso

• You are aligned with the mafia. You win when all town aligned members are dead and at least one mafia aligned member is still alive.
• You know the identities of all other mafia-aligned players, and may chat with them each night.
• Each night, one member of the mafia may kill a target player as a free action, in addition to any character actions.

Town

• You are aligned with the town. You win when all mafia aligned members are dead and at least one town aligned member is still alive.
• You have no additional abilities (aside from your character ability)

Setup specific rules:

1. Blackout: To give the mafia more freedom with who they target with their character abilities, no feedback will be given for the following roles which usually do give feedback: Escort, Bus Driver, Doctor and Bodyguard.
2. Free faction kills: For the same reason as blackout, the mafia member who carries out the faction kill may still use any character night actions.
3. Longer Days: Days for this S-FM will be longer then usual, with 72 hours for the first day and 48 hours for the following days. Nights will be a constant 24 hours.

Other rules:
All the typical FM rules apply. This includes…

1. Do not have outside discussion about the game while still alive.
2. You are expected to make at least 5 posts each day cycle that at least have a little bit of relevance to the game.
3. Do not edit your posts.
4. Do not post screenshots, especially showing your faction role.
5. Do not attempt to cheat. This is fairly broad, but everyone should understand what will be considered acceptable conduct, and attempts to circumvent the rules in ways that are clearly against the spirit of the game will be punished.
6. Admins cannot use their mod powers to reveal information that would not otherwise be available.

Failure to follow these rules will result in some combination of forced replacement, getting modkilled and/or getting blacklisted from future FMs.
