Mafia XLVIII: DC Universe. Day 1.
Khushrenada:
The Past:
The Present:
THE DISTORTION OF TIME HAS ALREADY BEGUN!
But to be perfectly honest, the real reason all of us are here is for the daily Power Girl shot. So without further ado:
That's the only story needed right there.
DAY 1 BEGINS!
Khushrenada:
Alright. Got Day 1 up and ready to go. You can get ready for the awesome about to come.
But not opening this thread just yet. Couple reasons why.
Waiting for mafia members to contact us with what roles they want. If they do not contact myself or Thatguy by 10:00 am EST Feb. 21, then we will assign the roles to them and start this thing.
Once that is taken care of, we can then list what the roles are and what items will be available.
As for hosting duties, I will take care of the odd days and Thatguy will take care of the even days. So, for Day 1, you will send me all your orders. On day 2, Thatguy will take your orders.
However, when it comes to purchasing items with points, Thatguy will handle that everyday. He is in charge of the shop.
As for the mafia hits, the Earth Mafia makes their hits on odd days and the Space Mafia makes their hit on even days. This tonight, the Earth Mafia gets to make a hit.
Other than that, every other ability of the mafia can be used every day.
As a bit of extra fun, I will be backing the Earth Mafia and Thatguy will be backing the Space Mafia. If one of those mafias win, we get to be included in it. But don't worry. This doesn't mean we are going to screw over the townies or other mafia. We know what is at stake and have no intention of creating bad blood.
IMPORTANT!
I try and highlight this every game but someone always seems to miss it. If you have not received a message from me telling you what your role is, that means you do not have a role and are just a basic townie. Only people with an actual role have been messaged.
Finally, some final reminders.
There is no voting requirement. You do not have to vote each day if you do not wish to. However, bonus points will be handed to players who do participate more. Thatguy will post a list of extra ways points can be earned beyond just voting a player out.
Voting ends at Midnight EST every day unless otherwise noted.
If Thatguy has anything else to add, I leave it to modify this post as needed.

that Baby guy:
The Shop is now open. Send me a PM if you wish to use your points at any time during the day.
Open Market (All players can purchase these items)
Concussion Bomb (8 points) - Nullifies any protection power except Superman's. Only one is available today.
Caped Dummy Clone (5 points) - Block any investigation except for Batman. Two are available today.
Oracle/Calculator's Favor (2 points) - Send an anonymous message to any player in the game. Message will be sent by a host. There is no limit on how many of this item may be purchased today.
Villain Weapons (Only available to mafia members)
Kryptonite (20 points) - Makes Superman susceptable to attack. One is available today, but may be saved for later use.
The Perfect Trap (20 points) - Make Batman susceptable to attack One is available today, but may be saved for later use.
Hero Weapons (Only available to Townies)
Green Ring (4 points) - Nullify a Player's Power for that day. Only one is available today.
Justice League (9 points) - 3 players can form the Justice League. Justice League has the following benefits. Players will know each other. All points from any kill will be doubled. Have access to the Phantom Zone Portal. Using the Phantom Zone Portal prevents a player from coming back in the game via black ring or white ring and negates Doomsday/Ra's Al Ghul's power. Every day, the Justice League must choose and inform the host of a target they want to apply the Phantom Zone Portal to. The player can be living or dead. That player will be tagged by the Phantom Zone Portal the rest of the game. This is a first-come, first-serve item, where all three players must front the cost to join.
Joker Toys (Only For the Joker obviously)
Kryptonite (10 points) - Already Explained. Unlimited availability.
The Perfect Trap (10 points) - Already Explained. Unlimited availability.
Joker Laughing Gas (50 points) - 4 people of his choosing die. (No points will be awarded from their deaths.)
Silent Auction
Blue Ring - Allows a player three times the voting power on one day, but sacrifices this player's vote the following day. Only one is available today.
Indigo Ring - Change the vote of a player you choose to a target of your choosing. Only one is available today.
About Silent Auctions
Unlike other items, items won in the silent auction are received during the night, and may be used one time (unless stated otherwise) on any proceeding day of the winner's choice.
To bid on a silent auction, you must send the day's host a PM detailing the item you are bidding on and the number of points you're bidding. Players may bid on both items, and may even bid all their points on all available items at once. If we receive a list of bids, the highest item on the list will be deemed highest in priority. If at the end of the day, a player does not have as many points as he or she bids on an item in an auction, the bid is considered invalid. You may only have one bid on one item at a time. Any PM must contain the full list of items the player is interesting in bidding on, so if you decide you want to alter a bid, be certain all other relevant bids are included in your updated message.
For an example, let's say I have 20 points. I want an Indigo Ring, but would like a Blue Ring if I can't get an Indigo Ring. Khush has 30 points, and also wants an Indigo Ring. He also wants to try to bid on the Blue Ring, just in case, to see if he can win it. These are the PMs the host would receive:
To: Host
From: thatguy
Subject: Silent Auction
Bid: 20 points Indigo Ring
Bid: 20 points Blue Ring.
To: Host
From: Kushrenada
Subject: My bids for the day
Bid: 25 points Indigo Ring
Bid: 25 points Blue Ring
In this scenario, Khushrenada would win the indigo ring and I would win the blue ring. My first bid would lose, and I would retain my points from the bid. My second bid would then be valid. Khush's first vote would win, and without enough points, his second bid would be considered invalid. If there is a tie for the highest silent bid, the winner will be determined via a coin-flip. The loser would then receive all of his points back.
About Points
At the beginning of each day, players will receive a PM updating their point totals. Unlike previous mafia games, points may be shared. In order to share points, the sharer must send me a PM with the number of points to give away and the player to receive said points.To buy an item, the same idea applies. Buy items from me. Everything except items from silent auctions is first-come, first-serve. If you have a question about this, feel free to ask me for clarification.
To Earn Points
Upon the death of a player, a specific number of points dependent on the role of the dead player will be rewarded to those responsible for his or her death. In addition, there are several point rewards based on participation. Most methods to earn points in participation are secret. Points are rewarded and usable at the start of each new day. There are two ways to earn points I will announce, but as of now, there are six other ways to earn points. New public and hidden methods to earn points might be added on a day-to-day basis, but there are no guarantees.
Two points will be rewarded to every player who posts in a day.
The player who Khush and I deem as the best roleplayer will receive five bonus points.
Remember, there's currently six hidden methods for active players to win points, and several methods are simple, so be active!
Players were awarded with a random number of points from 0-9 to begin the day. Some were lucky, some were unlucky.
