The mastermind's behind this game are Gerry, Mori and myself.
The game will be played like any other Forum Mafia game, with one twist! Every player will be given an action pregame. If the action they are given is performed, they will be Killed from the game, with their forbidden action being shown afterward. More information will be given under Rules.
I. The Schedule:
72 Hour Days. 24 Hour Nights
If you don't submit actions by the deadline I will consider you taking no action.
II. The Set Up:
There is no "possible roles list". I promise not to get too crazy.
Mafia will have Day chat. And will know each other's Forbidden Actions
You will get an Alignment PM. Town or Mafia and your alignment will not change.
Sample Role PM:
Welcome to Forum Mafia 19, papuito!
Your role is Vanilla Townie, you are sided with the Town.
Your only power in this game is your voice and your vote. Good luck.
Your forbidden action is: Using pictures or gifs in any of your posts
YOU CANNOT SHARE THIS FORBIDDEN ACTION WITH ANYONE
You win if all threats to the town are eliminated and at least one town-aligned player is alive.
Mafia Sample:
Welcome to Forum Mafia 19, papuito!
Your role is Mafia Goon, you are sided with the Mafia.
You are partners with (Player name) and (Player name). You share a day talk here (url here).
Your forbidden action is: Using pictures or gifs in any of your posts
YOU CAN ONLY SHARE YOUR FORBIDDEN ACTION WITH MAFIA MEMBERS.
Each night, one of you or your partners may perform the factional kill. You may kill and perform your role action during the same night.
You win if at least one member of your group is alive and all other players are dead (or if nothing can prevent the same)
III. The Rules:
Forum Mafia 19 Rules:
http://pastebin.com/kEUDw4T9 (The only modification is that mafia may kill and perform role action in the same night. Only 1 mafia member commits the kill.)
As explained earlier, there will be forbidden actions. YOU CANNOT SHARE YOUR FORBIDDEN ACTION. If found to, you will be mod killed. If you commit the forbidden action, you will be killed from the game. You may speculate forbidden actions of others within the game. If asked whether your forbidden action is something, you cannot confirm or deny. You can also not soft or hint as to what your forbidden action is.
We also will be strict about ISP and replacements. If you think for any reason you MAY have to be replaced, do not sign up. We also reserve the right to deny anyone from joining, if we believe you will troll, isp, sub.
IV. Votes:
Votes must be made in the format Vote: Playername. Bolding is done
using the tags [b][/b].
I will not take any other type of vote. If I can't tell who you're
voting, I won't take it.
MOD NOTEMori will be giving out a token prize to a player from each alignment who the hosts determined played best.

"Liars overemphasize their ifs. "To tell you the if..." "If..." "I if to you..." Oh, if only it were so! Where people use if to emphasize their if, there's a good if they are hiding if's"
total overreaction to being fossed, citeopml ponylove and himiko are mafia. don't worry about their long bus sequence that they had earlier, one of their forbidden actions is that they aren't allowed to fos anyone except their partners
"Liars overemphasize their truthfulness. “To tell you the truth…” “Honestly…” “I swear to you…” Oh, if only it were so! When people use these bolstering statements to emphasize their honesty, there’s a good chance they are hiding something."
i thought most of her d1 was pretty good but didn't really like anything after she voted nicole
btw, whats the take of the there being a third party role? can retti out who the second person to visit him was? the damned kill couldve been from the third party, or the third party may have been one of the people visiting retti
i can only think of one reason for N1ed to really say not to out the second visiting role would be and that is if they are claiming they're a killing role (vig/etc/blah) and know the second visit was a doc, but i don't see a reason a vig would actually shoot retti yet
regarding alignment tells coming from forbidden actions, i don't think this one is too obviously either scum or town sided. i would initially think its more town sided because it creates the dynamic of maybe having to explain why you voted so early in certain lynches, but its the same case for scum
given the forbidden actions of the the two vanilla townies now dead though, its hard to say

lol I'm afraid to comment anything but should transcend be confirmed anything to me? or does that not make sense
I dont know who I want to vote. umm like, I'm fine dying, but like, this is so hard to explain without talking about my lovely action. basically, nahh. do not lynch me today. just dont.
People's behaviors change though, of course, and forbidden actions could be changing that behavior. I do think maybe Ponylove is having trouble keeping up, which is making it hard to out accurate reads. I'm not really sure atm.
I'm here once every 2 days, basically, or so it seems, and there's lots of filler everywhere, so yeah, I'm not keeping up.

What do you guys think about Impoetic's forbidden action being to not hammer votes? Do you think that's alignment indicative or not?
deleteddeletedalmost 10 years ago
Pony, please answer the stuff I've been responding to you with.
I've had them in the top tier for a while but I may need to reread them.
I wish there was an ISO function.

Cause if there's anything I know about my towngame, it's that I'm disgustingly easy to pocket.

She is playing a bit more confident and more reserved but I think if you're town soda you are reading too much into behaviors instead of what people are saying, which is something I've been thinking about but don't know if I'm ready to commit to that idea. That's why I told you that I understand your reads but I just simply don't agree with them, because even now I share that feeling that Nat is playing a bit weird.
The word you're looking for is "uninvested".
Well, it's a new day and you're posting and keeping up, and I'm curious about your shearsSeditator vote.
Have seen barely anything from them, even by my standards. I have lots of townreads elsewhere so this works for me.
So you think Kass was pocketing me from the get-go when they echoed me in the first few pages?
