Announcement Post


Welcome to the 86th NWR Mafia Game. It's been awhile. Thanks for taking the time to do this again!

For Day 1, the Day Thread will be open for a maximum of just under 47 hours. Voting will end and the thread will close at Midnight EST Oct. 8 aka 9:00 PM PST Oct. 7 aka Noon Perth Time Oct. 8. However, the thread and Day could end early if a Majority Vote is reached.

There are currently 18 players still alive in this game meaning 10 votes would be needed for a Majority Vote.

There is an option to abstain from voting anyone out with the No Vote choice. Read about it in the Rules.

Yes, I haven't quite finished writing up all the rules. I still need to post about the power-ups/treasures available this game for Luigi/Gooigi. However, that stuff mainly is for the benefit of the two players with those roles. I'll make sure they are up to speed with those abilities before we get too far in this game.

I have also contacted the player who has the Dark Moon crystal to start the game. That is the only Ghost (Townie) who knows what item is assigned to them.

If you want to contact me via private messages on the forum or through Discord and the NWR Server, I will be doing my best to keep checking both places and be available to you through the medium you prefer. As well, if you would prefer I contact you either here or on Discord then let me know and I'll try to make that my primary way to communicate to you for when I need to reach you on a matter.

There is no voting requirement for this game. No one will be automatically eliminated if they haven't voted for so many days. I leave it to the players to decide if they will let other users stay under the radar with little voting activity.

I know the Luigi's Mansion game doesn't exactly have iconic standout enemies so role-playing for this game may be harder. One of the more popular choices of a Boo Buddy is being used for making up the Mafia so selecting that could make one a target so use that at your own risk. At the same time, there is a lot of blank canvas that a person could just take a character and make-up whatever they want with and sometimes that's more fun than trying to nail the characterization of a more iconic character. There is no rule about role-playing so don't worry about it if you don't care about it.

I think that wraps up the main points for now. I'll probably be posting some other points in the day thread as the game progress on Day 1 to alert players about certain points for the game so that they don't have to keep checking back on this post.

Game on!

Yeah, I realized after I had left last night and was going to bed that I forgot to do the traditional Player's List thread. Got the corrected now.

What I've learned from playing a lot of Apex Legends is that games are more fun if you jump into spicy locations.  In that spirit, Vote Shyguy.

I'm excited about this one because it's Halloween month and we're playing Luigi's mansion.



We're going to solve this!

Wait, so all these characters are ghosts except Luigi  ??? I guess there really aren't many mortals in the games. Also, where is the ghost cat from the newest game? It's almost like the host hasn't played Luigi's Mansion 3.

You know, there's also good multiplayer in Luigi's Mansion 3 (and 2), maybe we should play that too!

Vote Stratos because I'm pretty sure he hasn't bought Luigi's Mansion 3 yet.

Don't make come into this game and start taking all you clowns down! I know EVERYTHING!!! You don't want to mess with me. I'll switch this whole game over to a Metroid theme instead SO HELP ME GOD!!! SERENITY NOW!!

I know about the Polterkitty. I was trying to figure out what characters might kind of fit with the roles but it was pretty hard to always come up with a decent match-up. I've got reasons for selecting who I have. The good news is you can role-play as Polterkitty if you think the game needs more cats in it. (Which, honestly, every game could use more of.)

I've only played the original Luigi's Mansion. Unfortunately, (sigh) that was 20 years ago too.

I was actually really hyped for Luigi's mansion when it came out because the first game I beat was the PC version of Mario is Missing. I need to install that and play it on a DOS PC emulator. I still have the disc and manual.

Historically, I don't have any trust for Mop it Up, and I also don't remember why that is. I think Mop it Up started a bandwagon that ousted me.  But maybe I remember that wrong.

The problem when Khush is the host is I can’t start a bandwagon against him for no reason, and thus I really don’t know what to do for Day 1. Things always start so slow.

We are now at about the halfway point of Day 1. About 24 hours left for Day 1 if no majority is reached before then.

Current tally:

Mop it up - 2
No Vote - 1
pokepal148 - 1
ShyGuy - 1
Stevey - 1
Stratos - 1


That's the Day 1 non-consensus I love to see.

Alright. The Items/Treasure/Power-ups/Abilities/Whatever else you want to call them are finally posted in the Rules and Roles thread.

I realized one of the Items kind of resembled Polterpup's actions in Luigi's Mansion 2 so I decided to make a superficial change and rename the townie vigilante as Ug from LM3 to give the item the Polterpup designation. Because I was typing that section up when Mr. Bungle commented on Polterkitty, I had thought about changing the Townie Vigilante to that character but then pokepal took on its identity for roleplaying in this game now so I decided to go with Ug. A vigilante sort of represents a caveman attitude, doesn't it? In any case, I left Captain Fishhook from you players so someone better take advantage of that cool character!

Also, as a reminder for those that this pertains to: After the Day ends, there will be a 12 hour Night period for you to send in your actions/orders if your role allows you to do so for Night 1. In case anyone is wondering how long they have before actions are due.

It's so hard to tell who to vote for on the first day.  I guess I'll jump on the closest thing to a bandwagon right now and Vote Mop it up.
