Mario Party Mafia! Party Game Turns Deadly!

Time for a new mafia! I'm Tumble and I'll be your host for this Mafia Party! Sign ups will roll (haha!...yeah) until the 14th and the game will start on the 15th.

Days will end at 11PM Pacific Standard Time and the next day will be up later that night (before 3AM PST).

I'm going to be in work most likely during the thread close and will require the assistance of Khush and Vudu to lock the thread at Midnight when I am stuck at work late since I can get off anywhere from 11:15-1:15 depending on the day.

• General Play
  Victory Conditions: The goal is for one side to have the most stars at the end of the game. This is achieved via dice rolls,stealing stars, buying stars with coins and other mischievous shenanigans.Players end the game by having the townies eliminate all of the mafia or the mafia bringing the number of townies to equal or less than their numbers.Elimination victory results in a large star bonus as well.
   
  There are also bonus stars given out at the end of the game for fulfilling secret requirements. I will not tell anyone what these requirements are, though I will say that participation will greatly increase your chances for earning these bonuses.
   
  Eliminated player's star totals are still counted towards the cumulative total at the end of a game and they can still receive post-game bonus stars in death.
   
  On top of cumulative star totals helping your team win the game, the one player on any side that has the single highest total will be awarded the games 'SuperStar' and be awarded a Wii Shop or DSi Shop gift of their choosing. If you live in PAL territories I have an alternative plan or two that hopefully will workout.
   
  Actions: All night actions can be submitted anytime of day and they will occur simultaneously at night. So no action will cancel another action.
   
  Star buying: This is considered a day-time action. Requests to purchase stars will be granted up until the time the thread is locked. Any PMs for stars will be disregarded if they are dated after that time and I will respond to you if your request is too late so you know. You may begin making purchases for new stars again once the new day thread is up which will be a few hours after the previous one is closed. There is no limit to stars for sale. Purchased stars are counted towards your total once the next day begins so they cannot be stolen the night the are being delivered to you.
   
  Voting:The player with the most votes at the end of the day (adding in any special power affects on those votes) is eliminated from the game and their true role and what items they have is revealed. In the event of a tie the player with the lower star and coin total is eliminated.
  Mario & Co. Townie Roles
  There are no dedicated townie roles in this game. Instead,at the beginning of every day each player will be PM'd a 'dice role' that I will perform for them using two 6-sided dice that dictates what type of space you are landing on that turn.
                         
  Dice Rolls effects:
• Red Space -Negates vote in final tally the following day
• Ballot Box- Can change vote of another player
• Protection Space - Protected from nightly hit
• Investigator Space - Can perform an investigation
• Blue Space- Player's vote count is doubled
• Star Space- Get a Star
   
  Koopa Kid Mafia Roles
  Godmother - Wendy Koopa: Get's to hit one player a night to remove them from the game. Has a random chance of stealing one ormore stars from the person hit.
  Coin Stealer: Iggy Koopa: Can steal a random number of coins each turn from any player of their choice.
  Scrambler: Larry Koopa: Gets to randomly switch two player's coins and or stars. This works by the Scrambler PMing the Host two names -remember that the order is important.  The first choice is guaranteed to be chosen. The second only has a 25% chance of being chosen. If it is not chosen another player is chosen at random.
  Poison Mushroom Dealer: Lemmy Koopa: This guy gets to pick one person who's vote will be nullified that turn.         
   
  Bribing Boo
  >Boo is now back in play! I recalled him temporarily because of the confusion. Here is how he works: Each player may send one bid PM in an attempt to bribe Boo to do their bidding. This is a separate PM from any other action or PM you make to me to ease confusion. You may only select one target. In your PM you must include the following:  A statement that this is your Boo Bid, a total you wish to bid on, a name for your target."Bidding on Boo to target Stratos for 21 coins" is a good example PM*.You have multiple bids in a day. You can PM a changed target or price if you desire but the new Boo Bid will over ride the old one. You have up until I close the thread to make a bid if you choose.
   
  >If you win then I will take the coins before anynight actions are calculated so they cannot be stolen. If you fail to specify a target or your target is removed from the game I will pick a target at random to perform a theft on. Once a target is selected you have a chance of stealing1 to 3 of their stars. If they have no stars the theft fails and you receive your coins back. Your coins can be stolen that night if this happens. Also know that if you win stars, they are not 'delivered' to you until the next day just like regular stars so they are safe that night as well from theft.
   
  >If you do not win nothing happens and you get to keep your coins. You will be able to tell if you won or lost during your morning Roll PM when I disclose your current star and coin totals.
   
  >If there is a tie a winner will be selected at random to get his services.
   
  *Please note that I was using my name as a placeholder.Actual targeting of me will not give you a 'surprise result'. It will just not be counted (and I know some of you were thinking of doing that ). Also, I am not going to discard your bid PM if it is not exactly like the example. That was to show you the information I need for it.
   
  >Also note that Boo is an NPC.
  
  Side Notes
  • Random Chance - Any time random chance is mentioned or used, the Host rolls one or more dice to determine what that outcome is.
  • On the matter of day's passing their time limit without getting shut down, if Khush is for whatever reason not able to close it at 11PM PST the day will continue until I return home and close it myself. This should absolve any confusion about accidental over-time and what happens with it.

Not gonna happen.  Midnight PST is 2:00 AM for me.  I ain't gonna be up.  It's 1:00 AM for Khush; I'll let him speak for himself.

[Stratos]

If neither of you can do it I may just push back the thread lock to 1am to ensure I can make it as working past 1am is pretty rare. I could just promise that the thread won't close any later than 12 and if I get back later than that it is viewed as impromptu overtime.

[that Baby guy]

I'm in as a character of some sort.

[GoldenPhoenix]

I am IN

[Stogi]

In

[Plugabugz]

So that makes end of days at 8AM and next days start at 11AM. I will pass. Sorry. Out.

[BeautifulShy]

You guys need to list your Koopalings from highest to lowest.

[Stratos]

Are you more of a night owl, Plugabugz? I'm kinda bound by my work schedule so the only time I feel is guaranteed for me is at late night my time.

[vudu]

So that makes end of days at 8AM and next days start at 11AM. I will pass. Sorry. Out.

There's no reason why you need to be present at the close of the day.  You can still participate in the game. 

[Stratos]

True, I miss the close of day all the time in the last few games. It only hinders your chance for last minute changes.

[Plugabugz]

I can participate in the game, go to bed and have missed at 8 hours or so. That's a bigger disadvantage than before.

[vudu]

Actually, with the way the games have been going lately, non-participation seems to increase one's chances of survival.   

[Stogi]

I'll be Peach.

[Khushrenada]

Yeah, that might be pushing it for me. I can probably do it but 11:00 pm PST would be preferable. Even 11:30 pm PST I could probably get away with but I'm not sure I want to be locking threads at Midnight PST for a whole week or more.

I shall be in. Who to choose? I normally go with Waluigi for most everything but He's never paid off for me in a Mafia game. Maybe I'll switch it up and go with my second favorite.


Hi! I'm Daisy!

[BeautifulShy]

I am usually up at that hour Stratos. I could lock it I just need mod powers.

[Stratos]

I'll bump it to 11PM then if you can lock it every night, Khush. This sounds like the simplest option to go with. That would also ensure that when I do return from work I can immediately get started on the next day's thread. I want to make sure every day has a story when I post it.

PS-Is my avatar showing a white background to you all? I edited it out to be transparent and cleared my cache but it is still showing the avatar for me as with the white background.

[stevey]

There's still a background.
I don't think jpeg can be transparent...

[Stratos]

Thanks stevey. This is what I get for using the Photobucket tools I suppose.

[Khushrenada]

Works for me. 11:00 PM PST it is.

[Stratos]

Updated OP with prize info I forgot to mention before.

[vudu]

I see I neglected to pick a character.  I'll be Tanooki Suit Mario.

[Mop it up]

Aw, you took the fun out of signing up!

Does anyone want to be the Yoshi to my Birdo?
