So, I got to talking on IRC, and I've wanted to host a game for god knows how long, but I always felt that there were 'rules' in place for how many games could be running at a time, and lines to host games, and well, that is just not the case. If I don't get enough people, I'll just wait until I do. No biggie. Here's hoping that no one gets mad at me, but if you do, TOO BAD, BRO. This is primarily for those of you who haven't played many, if any games, but you can play whether you've played one or 7 games.


Overview:
Death Eaters is a Mafia variant. It is between two teams: the uninformed majority and the informed minority. At the beginning of the game, each player is told their role by the Game Host.

The Villagers are told they are apart of the village and their role. They do not know who the other villagers are (unless otherwise stated) and are only aware of their own role. To win, all the Death Eaters must be killed. During the day phase, all players (Death Eaters included) can vote on a single individual to be "Kissed" or removed from play.

The Death Eaters are told their role in addition to the roles of all other Death Eaters. They must work together to carefully get rid of the villagers until they are the majority group within Hogsmeade (and voting during the day phase is made irrelevant). During the night phase of the game, they can work together to kill a villager.

NOTE: VILLAGERS DO NOT HAVE A QT, SO DO NOT MENTION YOUR QT IN THE THREAD....UNLESS YOU WANT TO DIE.

Night and Day Phase:
Both Night and Day are 24 hours, NO EXCEPTIONS WHATSOEVER.
The game will begin during day. During day phases, the villagers will be able to use the thread to communicate and discuss who among them is guilty and should be Kissed. At any time a villager may submit a single vote to have another villager Kissed. When a person in Hogsmeade receives a simple majority of votes at any point in time, they are removed from play and their role is revealed. Players may rescind their vote at any time and cast it for someone else (so long as it is day phase). Players may cast a DEADLINE vote. They cannot rescind their vote after a majority is reached against one player. If a majority of votes is not reached against one player by the end of the day phase, no one is Kissed.

During the night phase, discussion in the thread is prohibited. Death Eaters can collude via their group QT and the Game Host will check the QT to see the individual they want to kill. Roles (such as Healer, Auror) may additionally be used during this time. Both Death Eaters and Order Members may talk in their QTs during both Night and Day phases

At the beginning of the next day phase, if a person was killed, their name and role is identified by the Game Host and the process starts anew.

I'm totally down for scrub mafia as a warm-up for Lutris's HoT2.

Sign me up Ashayayayayayayayayaya.

 

I'm in. Finally getting a mafia game will be fun.

 

In, I suppose.

 

Joining, because why not. It's been a bit since I mafia'd, and something a little less complex appeals right now, even with no Traveller... So I'm in.

 

I think I'd like a good old basic game before the Timey Wimey Ball explodes and the Doctor has to save everyone. I'm in.

 

Fixed that for you~

 

Put me down as an Alternate please.

 

That makes fuck all sense.

 

I want in boss lady.

 

This is something I've been looking forward to (behind HoT2, obviously).

I'm in.

 

In and stuff, Ash.

 

Hunh, I've only done irc werewolf and never forum based so why not, I'll give it a whirl. Sign me up.

 

A basic game that won't have the Cop suiciding Day 1? Yes please!

 

Aye. I will play wit you, Ashhhh.

 

Alrighty, I'll play.

 

Because of my schedule and what I've already got I'm not sure I can play right off the bat however, about 4ish days or so I'll be free so, I figured if someone bombs out by then and an Alt is needed, I'll be free.

 

I'm definately in for this.

 

>_>

That makes a bit of sense.

 

Three more slots left

That was certainly quick.
