Topic: Mafia XXXIX Sign-up thread: Star Wars REBEL ALLIANCE Prize Mafia!

[decoyman]

Darth Vader, in a foul mood, is randomly patrolling the halls of the Death Star when a generic stormtrooper runs up to him.

"Lord Vader, sir! We've just received word that certain members of the Rebel Alliance have infiltrated the Death Star!"

"What's this?!" shouts Vader in surprise, irate and already considering using Force Choke on the unfortunate messenger.

"Sir, the rebels have somehow gained access to stormtrooper uniforms, and are masquerading as... well, as US! As stormtroopers, sir! I'm sure they must be gathering intelligence or attempting to sabotage something. Those rebel scum are always up to no good..."

"This cannot be allowed to continue. We will pluck them from our midst like puny stupid ants, and squash them! Assemble a team, and get to work weeding them out!" shouts Vader, who then turns with a swirl of his cape and strides away...


Welcome to Mafia XXXIX: Star Wars REBEL Mafia. I hope you're ready for a change of morality this time, because the townies are actually the Empire, and the mafia members are the Rebels! Yes, this game will play out like a normal game of mafia, but the mafia are the "good guys" this time. It's purely a superficial change, but should be interesting. Other than the flipped moral compass, this game will play out like a normal game, and will actually be a fairly bare-bones mafia.

TOWNIE ROLES

• Grand Moff Tarkin (sheriff) can use his resources as commander of the Death Star to investigate one player every night.
• Darth Vader (vigilante) can take out one player each night. However, he dies if he takes out two "innocents" (so, he can make a mistake and live... but only once!).
• Stormtroopers (townies) can use their power to vote out players they suspect of being Rebel scum!

MAFIA ROLES

• Luke Skywalker (godfather) can "hit" one player each night for the mafia. If he is voted out or hit, power goes to Han Solo, then Leia, and so on. HOWEVER, if this happens, the mafia loses their hit that night.
• Han Solo, Princess Leia, Obi-wan Kenobi, etc. (mafia goons) have no special powers unless they become the godfather, at which point they will control the hit.
• note: I will balance the mafia numbers based on game attendance

INDEPENDENT ROLE

• Boba Fett (killer) has also crept aboard the Death Star and simply wants to kill everyone. Can make one hit per day.

As usual, townies win once all mafia and the killer are dead. The mafia wins once the killer is dead and the number of townies is equal or less than that of the mafia. Boba Fett wins if everyone else is dead.

In case you're on the fence, it's PRIZE MAFIA! Meaning, I will gift one member from the winning team, decided by a vote at the end, a virtual console game (up to $10USD) of his/her choice.

Ok! Sign-ups begin now and will run through Sunday, November 8th, at 7pm CST. Roles will go out that night, and the game will begin the next day (Monday morning).

Questions? Ask away! Otherwise, sign up now!

And... sign-ups are closed! Roles will be going out shortly. And would someone give me mod privileges for the mafia forum? Pretty please?

[Pale]

I will play.

[GoldenPhoenix]

In as Ventress!

[vudu]

In as a tie-fighter because apparently that's the only Star Wars Scribblenauts avatar they got around to making.

[Khushrenada]

Boba! Boba! Boba!

In. Hopefully, this Star Wars theme will go better than last time.

[that Baby guy]

Last time's went awesome, I still believe.

I'll sign up, and be Lando once more.

I pray you don't alter any deals further.

[NWR_DrewMG]

Signed up!

[NuclearSpeed]

In, this should go smoother than last time without any laws to vote into effect.

I still say you were invincible and we won.  That's just me, though.

[Mop it up]

Ugh, Star Wars.

I'm in, but don't expect me to do anything geeky.

[GoldenPhoenix]

Ugh, Star Wars.

I'm in, but don't expect me to do anything geeky.

Booo

[Mop it up]

Fine, fine. Would it make you happy if I used this as my author icon?

[that Baby guy]

Maybe if the light saber was more red, just maybe.  Blue, green, and purple also work, but I don't remember any orange ones.  Not a bad idea, though.

[UncleBob]

Sure, sign me up.

[NWR_insanolord]

I was hoping for a Mafia game soon; I played it in real life at a Halloween party, and, while interesting, it wasn't nearly as fun as it is on the forums.

In.

[BeautifulShy]

So who is going to roleplay this game?

[decoyman]

Fine, fine. Would it make you happy if I used this as my author icon?

Nice! And I don't even mind the orange light saber.

My aim with this game is simplicity, simplicity, simplicity. I'll give more rule clarifications once the official thread is posted. But hopefully we won't need too many clarifications, considering there aren't many roles in this game at all. Actually, I toyed with the idea of not giving any roles at all... just a bunch of townies and a mafia... but the idea of Darth Vader as a sort of bumbling vigilante was too tempting. Luckily for all of you, I refrained from adding JarJar Binks (would've been the village idiot)...

You know, thinking about this further, if any new players are reading this and on the fence about whether to sign up or not, this is probably a really good game to jump in on because of its simplicity. So, I encourage you to sign up even if you haven't played before!

[nickmitch]

Something, something, something Dark Side.

I'm not very good with MS Paint but I'll see what I can do.

[that Baby guy]

Sweet, nice choice, then.  I definitely support it.

Don't worry about it. Orange is a lightsaber colour, maybe not in the movies, but definitely in the games.

Also I'd be willing to make some other Mario Baseball/Starwars avatars if people want them. I'll still be rocking Fry, but people are welcome to have some. I'll make some now, if you want them take them.

edit:

most of the other character art doesn't really suit the characters holding "lightsabers". they've all got gloves and balls and stuff.

[BeautifulShy]

Hey Dasmos can you make an avatar of Maxi. Something along the lines of 2 lightsabers that are attached to the chains or just having the nunchuck and having the lightsaber at the end of the handle.
