Rules
The
Forum Mafia Rules (link) apply. They mostly include what comes next, at least in spirit, but they are not limited to the following lines.
No out of game communication, no private messages, no last wills, no death notes.
This is a competitive game, so treat it as such : there should not be excessive amounts of shitposting, although some of it, especially in early stages, is perfectly normal and fine.
This is also a game made to have fun! Remember to be nice at eachother, even though things can (and probably will) get heated about alignments.
Keep attacks slot-directed and not person-directed.
Edits to the setup
Lynch mode will be set to plurality + majority.
I'm open to changing the 72 hours days to 48 hours days. I'm also open to having only the first day last 72 hours.
Note that the setup had a Citizen added after seeing the result of the game when it was hosted, and considering the general balance. It is included in the main setup page, but I'm letting you know in case you had played the first version before.
Good luck, and have fun!

/sign up I've never played an FM before so can someone let me know what to expect? I played sc2mafia and it says during the night cutscene that I can play an FM on the website.

Hey Joey, glad you joined us ^^ you've been around on the mod for quite a bit, as far as I can tell. You're at the right place and did the right thing, and are now counted in as a player! You will be mentioned (
@JoeyDX
) when the game starts, so I recommend you to make sure to check the forum regularly (like once per day) to make sure you don't miss out on anything, especially the game's start.
Here's a link to the setup that you might want to read: here (link, click me). If you need help to understand the setup, just tell me!
Stuff you don't have to read but that will help you understand the FM universe a bit more:
FM is different from the SC2 Mafia arcade map, but has the same spirit : an uninformed majority, the Town, fights an informed minority, the Mafia. Neutrals exist too, although they're less present than in 933s or 8331s. The game is much more based on logical analysis than the mod, and has deeper strategy. Phases (day/night) lasting much longer than on the mod contribute to this, and so does the different setup mentality (more citizens, less power roles). After playing FM, you will realize that most setups played on the mod are incredibly town-favored if played correctly. I can link you to guides if you'd like, but those tend to be long, and you're really not required to read them. If you're interested or have any questions, hit me up, though.
Note that even while in game, you can always

Re: S-FM 294 : Undercover (9P) - Ladder Season 7, game 1 - Signups
Best piece of advice I can give is that FM is very reliant on reading. It will require you to read everything and reread everything. You’ll have to come to your own conclusions.
Because there is a general lack of roles with night actions in FM, you have to rely on hard reads; essentially who is mafia based on how they are acting/reacting.
If you have no idea what to do, ask questions. That’s what I do and it hasn’t fucked me over yet. Pick a player who is online and ask them their opinion about something/someone. Then wait for their response and engage in conversation.
...you’ll get the hang of it pretty quickly, don’t worry. This is a great exercise of logic. After playing this for a while I’ve noticed conversation, and more specifically conflict is easier to resolve IRL. It’s pretty uncanny.

SoonTM. The game needs to fill first, and we need one reserve to start the game since it's a Ladder one (reserves are people that will replace a player if they happen to be inactive or if they can't play anymore in emergency cases).
And Banana, it's not because you don't know how to play that noone does! :P sorry was just too tempting

We need three more people to fill, plus a reserve since this is a ladder game.
As far as going from the mod to FM's. FM's are more reading and writing intensive but there are some overlapping strategies. The most common one I've seen on the mod would be making reads based off how people are voting and the actions the take. This setup is relatively similar to a nine player mod setup. Just make sure to read all the rules for the setup itself and general FM rules (so don't edit your posts, know how to [/vote] etc.)

Speaking of which, I know we can get three more people. Why the hell hasn't this filled? It's a damn SK game. Nobody has to worry about what a carol is, now get in here.
