Because I can't let a good idea die, I'd like to lay out what I'm planning for a future mafia game. If you like what you see, post here to say that you'd be interested. If enough people are interested, the game will happen at some point (several people are already lined up to host, so it'd happen after those games.) So, without further ado, I present:
With the Lylat system at peace and no new missions forthcoming, the Star Fox team was taking a much needed break. Fox was relaxing on Sauria when he got a distress call from Slippy....
Fox quickly shared the news with the rest of the team, and General Pepper.
And so Fox, Falco, and Krystal boarded the Great Fox 2 and made their way to the Lonely Hearts Inn, a vacation satellite orbiting Cornaria. Soon after their arrival, the following message was sent:
"
Report to General Pepper from Fox McCloud:Outside communication has been cut off, but we finally managed to get a message through. We've made it to the Inn, and Slippy and everyone else is okay. But the situation is far worse than we thought - Star Wolf is being lead by Andross, and he's here on the satellite! To make matters worse, he's flooded the corridors with deadly gas. My team, every vacationer, and me are trapped in our individual rooms - the only places that are safe from the gas.
We're going to try and take care of Andross and Star Wolf - we know they're trapped in their rooms too, so it'll be a piece of cake for R.O.B. to drop bombs on their locations. The only problem is - we've checked the guest list, and they aren't on it. Which means there are four traitors on board who are hiding and protecting the bad guys in their rooms, and we don't know who they are.
It isn't all bad, though. Each room is equipped with a powerful Ultra 64 computer, and I can talk with everyone on the satellite over the Ultra 64 network. We've decided that everyone will vote on who the traitors are. Whoever the vacationers decide is a bad guy, will be blown up. It'll be tricky, because the traitors will be able to vote too, and Andross and Star Wolf will be able to monkey around with us as well. But it's our only option. I hope no innocent people are killed.
Fox Out."
The bad guys taunt Fox and company by day, and kill by night.
Andross - BlackNMild. Kills one vacationer every night. If he dies, he gets to choose a successor. Has the power to make the traitor who is protecting him appear like an innocent vacationer to the investigator.
Wolf O' Donnel - Blackfootsteps.Leon Powalski - Mario.Panther Caroso - Mystic Gohan.The traitors - each one is hiding a separate bad guy. If a traitor is voted out, both the traitor and the bad guy he is protecting dies.
Fox McCloud - while better known as a fighter pilot, Fox is also a skilled investigator. He can determine the role of one person each night.
The Doctor - There is a Cornarian army doctor on board, identity unknown. He can protect one person every night.
And finally, there are the
innocent vacationers.The Ultra 64 network is divided into three sections, or "threads":
-
Open channel: Discuss goings-on here.
-
Voting booth: Vote for who you suspect here.
-
Slippy's Updates: See the results of votes, and who the bad guys have killed, here.
Every day, you vote for you suspect is hiding a bad guy in the "Voting Booth" thread. Everyone can vote, including people with roles. Every night, the bad guys can kill one person, Fox can investigate one person, and the doctor can protect one person (via pms).
You can lie, claim whatever you want, and even reveal your role. However, you are not allowed to quote or show screenshots of pms. While alive, you most post in a mafia thread at least once every 2 days. While dead, you must not participate in the game in any way.
Before the game starts, you can choose to play as any character in the Star Fox universe, and I will pm you an appropriate avatar in addition to your role.
Anyone interested?
