With Thanksgiving behind us and a whole lot of cheap new devices to buy today, I'm sure everyone's got 5 seconds to sign up for the newest Forum Mafia game while they're waiting on updates for something!
This'll hopefully be a nice, easy to understand game you can just casually check into on your phone every day or two. I'm hoping that way people can still join even if their time is limited, or perhaps if they've not played Mafia before.
Rules
Forum Mafia is a social game consisting of 2 phases: first there is
Daytime, when discussion is open and players can discuss strategy, theories, etc. This is followed by
Nighttime, during which the Mafia tries to eliminate players from the game, and various other actions may occur in secret.
Players are randomly assigned roles, splitting them into several factions.
A small minority of players secretly constitute the
Mafia: they remove 1 player from the game at a time, with the goal of being the only survivors left.
Deception is their core asset. The majority of players will be so-called
Townies, and it is their goal to survive this sabotage from within, by removing suspected Mafia members through a majority vote.
Cooperation will aid them most. Lastly, some members of the group may have a tertiary objective that applies only to them; these are called
third-party players.
Staying incognito is crucial for their success.
Story
It's F-Zero baby! A fast-paced anti-gravity racing event which attracts thrill-seeking pilots. Some drivers seek the glory of lifting the coveted cup at the end, whilst others prefer to knock rivals off the track. Can the legitimate racers stave off the challenge of saboteurs and claim a podium position, or will the crash-causers end the race prematurely? Sign up to find out!
Role Playing?
Is encouraged, but not required!
Ideas: pick a vehicle from the image below (
or this link), set it as your avatar, and use its name as your custom title. If you want to be a contrarian (on this forum? no way), you can also select a vehicle from WipeOut/XGR/Big Rigs, any spaceship you like, a Nimbus 2000, or heck, ride a jetski for all I care!
