Game Rules and Roles and Rolls
The Story
Who is the real Superstar of the Mushroom Kingdom? Is it Mario, with his fame? Is it Yoshi, with his cuteness? Is it Donkey Kong, with his strength? Is it Wario, with his wit? Is it Luigi, with his, uh... hat? After a heated argument breaks out amongst Mario and his friends, Peach decides to host a grand party filled with fun and games at the castle to determine who has the qualities of a real Superstar. Catching word of this event, Bowser paces back and forth, plotting a way to ruin this party, since he was not invited. Will the good times roll at the castle, or will Bowser and his cronies crash the party?
General
This game has no special roles, not even the Godfather. Instead, every ability is granted randomly each day, determined by a role of the die. This gives each and every player a chance to use a special power, but also adds an element of unpredictability. You never know who will end up with what, so anything can happen!
All actions happen overnight. An action can be sent in at any time during the day, and must be received before thirty minutes after the daily thread closes. Actions are not time-sensitive; some take priority over others. If an ability is not used by the end of the day, it does not carry over to the next day.
The Townies
There are no townie roles. Every ability which is usually associated with a townie role is now a random ability which will be assigned to each player every day, that will change every day.
Townie rolls
1: Red Space
The player's vote for that day will not be counted in the tally. They may still cast a vote in the thread, it will just not count.
2: Ballot Box Space
The player can change the vote of another player.
3: Protection Space
The player will be protected from the nightly hit.
4: Investigator Space
The player may investigate another player and learn their role.
5: Blue Space
The player's vote for that day will count as two votes.
6: Bob-omb Space
The player transforms into a bomb! If they are hit that night, then the Mafia member who performed the hit will lose along with the player. If the bomb player is voted out, the player who cast the first vote against the bomb player will be taken out as well.
The Mafia
The number of Mafia members will depend on the number of people who sign up. If we get the typical number of signups as we have these past few games, then there will probably be 4 Mafia.
There is no Godfather role. Instead, one member of the Mafia will be randomly selected each day to perform the nightly hit. All members will be informed who currently has this ability. If the member with the power is voted out that day, the hit will be stopped.
Mafia rolls:
1 or 4: Feign Innocence Space
If this player is investigated on this day, they will come back as a townie.
2 or 5: Nullify Space
The player can choose another player to nullify their ability, causing whatever it may be to be ineffective.
3 or 6: Starman Space -or- 3: Red Space, 6: Blue Space
These numbers are situational. If the player with the hit power gets this, it will guarantee the nightly hit will be successful, regardless of any protection the target may have. Also grants protection from being exploded by a bomb player. If a player doesn't have the hit, they will receive the effects of the coloured space corresponding to the number rolled.
Minigame and Reward
Each day, there will be a minigame which all players can participate in. What kind of minigame will appear? Nobody knows! The player(s) who win a minigame will be rewarded with one free roll, to be used at any time. This item allows the player to receive a different roll for the current day.
