THE OFFICIAL RULES (Read or Die!)
HOW TO PLAY:
ROLES: Every player has been given a role, each with it’s own abilities (or lack thereof). Your role PM will explain what it does if you are meant to know. You do not need to reveal your role to other players nor will we do so in the in-game write ups. Of course, you can choose to reveal information about your role if you wish to if you feel it would help you to reach your win condition. Jut remember that any information you reveal can also be used against you, so claiming is entirely at your own risk. If you want to use your ability, PM the mod of the game (Glotnot). Do NOT post it in the thread unless your role PM states otherwise.
PHASES: The game is split into two phases, Day and Night. The game begins during the day phase with all players (Town and Mafia alike) posting in the thread deciding who to lynch. Lynching is the town’s main way of eliminating mafia, so be sure to examine everything that your fellow players say in order to find inconsistencies, lies, dodgy voting patterns and anything else that could incriminate people. There may also be clues in the end of phase write ups, but relying on those is not advised as they may be veiled, misleading or otherwise unreliable. Day phases last approximately 48 hours or until a consensus is reached on who to lynch. Night phases last approximately 24 hours but may end earlier if all night activities are completed. If you have an optional ability and choose not to use it, please inform the mod via PM so that they know not to wait on your ability.
VOTING: All voting and game related discussion is to occur within the game thread. Town players may discuss who they think are Mafia, and Mafia members should be trying to avoid being lynched by bluffing and blending in and generally trying to not get lynched. To vote on anyone, post VOTE: Username (MUST BE IN BOLD!). You can also change your vote by typing CHANGE VOTE: Username (AGAIN IN BOLD!). You can also change your vote to nobody by typing CHANGE VOTE: No Vote (STILL IN BOLD!). Your last option is to vote for a no lynch, meaning that you actively choose to not lynch anyone. To do so simply type VOTE: No lynch (BOLDED OBVIOUSLY!). All votes post in the thread for your vote to count and it must be in bold. If you vote within a quote then your vote won’t be counted, so if you mess up voting and quote it to edit it then it will not count.
DAY PHASES: A Day Phase is over whenever a person obtains votes from more than 50% of the total number of players remaining, at which point they are lynched. It can also end if the time expires before a lynch is reached, at which point a No Lynch will be declared. There are abilities out there that can change votes such as vote manipulators, multi-voters and no-voters so vote counts may not always be as they seem. When a person dies their role title will be revealed for all to see in the end of day write up.
NIGHT PHASES: Night Phases begin after a day phase has ended. During this time most abilities will be sent in to the mod (Glotnot), with the Mafia usually sending in their kills while the town send in names of people they want to use their abilities on, such as investigate or protect. The night phase will end once all abilities have been sent in or when the time limit expires, at which point the mod will do a write up of the night’s activities. The write up will reveal what players have been killed any some other events that happen depending on what the mod consider important enough to be in the write ups. Whenever possible, try to get PMs into the mod as soon as possible after the start of the night phase in order to keep the game moving along at a quick pace.
Once night has ended, a new day begins and the cycle repeats itself until win conditions have been reached. The Town generally wins when there are no threats left to them, the Mafia generally win when their numbers are equal to or greater than the remaining non-Mafia players. Remember, this is a team effort so if you think sacrificing someone may help your cause then go ahead.
GENERAL MAFIA GAME RULES:
No players are allowed to edit their posts EVER!. Whether it be to correct a typo or to remove some accidentally incriminating things someone has said, no editing of posts is allowed. While mods may choose to be lenient, the standard penalty for anyone caught editing a post is a mod kill.
All players should play to their role/alignment and play to win. While there are likely to be times that you have to do things against your best interest, any players who deliberately go against their win conditions risk being banned from future games for failing to play to their role and going against the spirit of the game.
Players are only allowed to post their role title from their role PM, that is the bit that says you are “Town Aligned Protector” or something similar. You can paraphrase things that your PM says but you are not allowed to directly quote anything else other than the role title from your PM, which is also the only thing players will see when you are dead. If the mods catch you posting anything that closely resembles what your role PM says then it will be grounds for a mod kill. You have been warned!
In game “role bets” such as “I will never play again if…” is strictly prohibited. If you do this then you will at minimum be replaced as soon as possible, with a maximum penalty of a mod kill. It may also lead to a ban from future games, mods don’t want players who will bet on things outside their games in order to try and prove something in a game so just don’t do it.
Though we can’t force you to post, all mods love to see active participants in their games. We advise everyone to check in at least once a day, as games can move pretty fast and it can be easy to fall behind if you are not on regularly.
Though this may also be a mafia game, try not to postwhore in the thread. Where possible try to keep things relevant to the game that is being played and try not to let arguments get out of hand. This game stirs up some passionate arguments and we understand that this will happen, but if anything turns into a personal attack then it ruins the fun for everyone. Be considerate. :)
Unless your role PM specifically states otherwise, no players are allowed to talk about their role, game plan, alignment, win condition or basically anything game related outside of the game thread. While mods can’t easily enforce this rule, any communication about the game outside of the game thread goes against the spirit of mafia games and spoils the game. Anyone caught doing this WILL be mod-killed. This is your only warning!
Once you are dead, you stay dead. You will not be allowed to participate in the game thread or continue to talk to people outside the thread that you could talk to before. So if you are a Mafia player who dies, you are NOT allowed to continue talking about the game to your Mafia team mates. No dead players will receive any extra information from the mod (Glotnot) when they die either. If you are dead, try not to post anything in the game thread as anything you say could be an unnecessary distraction to those still playing, though a quick post going “Oooooooo I’m a ghost!!” is generally okay, no-one is allowed to leave cryptic messages from the dead, notes on their corpses or anything like that. If you are dead, your contribution to the game is over.
Talking to other dead players is also frowned upon, as many games have been known to feature a revive type ability or need to have players replaced. Talking to other players outside the game means that these abilities can’t be used properly and that you can’t be used as a replacement, which can still have an impact on the game in play. So don’t do it!
When it comes to mafia games, nothing is ever as it seems. There can be things about your role that you don’t know about, other people can bluff about their abilities, people can lie, events can happen and write ups can be read in many different ways. If you have any questions about what is happening then you can get in contact with the mod (Glotnot) via PM, and if we can clarify anything for you then we will do what we can. But there are many reasons why we might not be able to, and in any such eventuality you will get a post simply stating the following -> :cool:

It was a cold night.
A cold night indeed.
A night so cold, a night so bold, one could hardly breathe.
Okay, we’re done with rhyming now.
Oh look! A piggy!
*Oink oink oink*
Awww how you doin’ Pig?
*Oink oink*
I hear you pig. I hear you. Tell me all about it.
*Oink oink oink oink*
*sniff*
*Oink oink oink oink oink oink oink*
Shhh, Pig. Shhh. It’s all over now. That’ll do, Pig. That’ll do.
Oh look a bee!
*Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz*
Oh look, a spaceship!
*Nyewwwww vrooooosh*
OH NO! LOOK OUT!
*COLLISION!*
Oh my god, that bee is spinning wildly out of control! It’s going to- oh look, the spaceship crashed.
I wonder what’s inside?
"THAT HIDEOUS EARTH BEE CRASHED AN IRKEN FOOD RUNNER! BUT HOW?!"
Yeah, I know what you mean, it’s a sticky situation. But those Earth Bees’, they’re just-
“NOTHING CAN CRASH AN IRKEN FOOD RUNNER! THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE!”
Well, I think that little bee just did, so-
Oh, look. Everyone else crashed to.
*looks around the first ship, noticing several others in the vicinity*
Would you look at that. What a coincidence.
And hey, most of the people here have guns. Really big guns.
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!
*runs off*
---
Well, it looks as though a fight IS going to happen. And whether or not you know, you’re a part of that fight. Some of you, innocent bystanders, others, soldiers on the warfront. Only you know (most of the time).
Regardless of your place in this war, it’s clear that a war WILL happen, as the crashed aliens scurry to plant themselves and create their respective hideouts and bases of operation.
And in a time of war, what can we do?
...Prepare yourselves.
THIS!
IS!

But, really, this game is interesting. No townies died in the opening.
That probably means the scum don't know what color the humans are! (Or, win condition... But that's a rather interesting thing in and of itself....)
Anyone want to "play dirty" and ask someone what color the humans are? (I think you can draw from this post that I'm in the know. I acknowledged "Humanity" and all.)

Color's a bit odd, right?
I mean, I'm by myself and it would certainly appear as though I am town, but the rolecolor is all mason-y.
Maybe we're just a select group of townies, and their are good aliens that got the blue color?

I'm not particularly adept at it either. I did watch it when it first came on, on Nick, and I wasn't a massive fan, but I did think it was a good show. (That one time GIR stared at the static/blank screens, and said "I love this show~" became a meme between me and my cousin for a while, so it was atleast good enough for that) Didn't catch all of the episodes, though - and plus, I was really young back then. Debuted nine years ago, so..wow, I was six or seven around that time. So yeah, not a very in-depth memory of it. :p

Every Invader Zim character is stupid to some degree.
The Almighty Tallest sent Zim to Earth just to get rid of him. Zim thinks he's here to destroy everything/enslave humanity/do generic evil stuff and constantly tries to. Dib is the only person that knows he's an alien, but he consistently fails to do anything about it.
All other humans are barely more intelligent than sheep.
In another universe, there'd be more obvious bounds of good and evil, but everyone in this universe is so incompetent that they cause more harm to their cause than good half the time.
Zim and the humans/Dib would be enemies in this game. (That makes Zim scum, which is odd for a main character.) The Almighty Tallest are the leaders of Zim's planet, so they're scum too. However, I can't be sure they're aligned with Zim directly. Zim almost destroyed his own planet once accidentally...
As for other aliens: There aren't many in this universe of note.
Tak is probably a serial killer or aligned with The Tallest. She's an invader that Zim accidentally prevented from completing the invadership test by over-zealously attacking a vending machine or something. (In the episode she was in, she showed up on earth to hijack Zim's mission to prove to The Tallest that she deserved to be sent on this mission instead. This is funny considering Zim's mission was an attempt at keeping him as far away from the Irken forces as possible...)
I have a feeling The Resisty might be a group. In one episode, Zim hacks the Irken Mothership (The Massive) so he could send The Tallest towards Earth so he can see his latest evil plan while Dib uses Tak's crashed ship to hack The Massive too. So, you end up with 2 characters that consistently fail piloting The Massive. Suddenly, a ship consisting of races that are enemies to Irk (pretty much all races) appears, calling themselves "The Resisty". They suck too, but if there's a mason group, it may be them.
There's a lot of random, non-human characters that can be in this, but in general, it's probably humans vs. some amalgam of aliens.
So, anyway, Wrestling Century! You may actually be one of the more helpful townies during this game and are also, no offense, one of the people most easily proven to be scum. So: What color are the humans?

Nobody. I just remember reading a conversation (I think that it was on Pokemon Mafia, but I'm not sure) talking about why some of the users went invisible and I decided that it would be a good idea if I did it too!

I'm an individually aligned character, so I won't be much of help to scum or town. But I'm not an SK or anything like that, so like I said, I'm basically just here. I'm yellow colored.

...Well, that's odd, individuals are typically just bold, without any color. But sence there seems to be a possibility of not having the usual townie blue color, maybe Glot's color-coding is differant in this game.
But still..colored individual is a tad odd. But then, so is coming right out and claiming individual with virtually no pressure, when those are typically bad for the town..

Well... The aliens are sort of yellow...
You basically claimed survivor. What is your character. There's nothing to fear if you're a survivor, so if your claim makes sense, you're helping yourself.
If you don't claim or your claim is scummy, we'll probably lynch you.

Should we really ask someone to fully claim on the first day?
I mean, I get the suspicion, but wouldn't it be better for him to hint right now, and then claim if people don't get it?

The best thing the town can do in a mafia game is get a reasonable lynch off on day 1. That's really hard when there's no information to go on, but WC just gave us a big lead.
If he is telling the truth, a full character name won't hurt him. If he's lying, then he gets lynched.

I don't get why people are thinking that was really an insta-kill. I mean, even if he had that power, would he really waste it up on WC? Who's pretty likely to be lynched? On day 1? And would it really be something posted in the thread and not via PM, anyway?

02-27-2010, 10:50 PM
Bah, time to show why I won that 2009 Best Discussion Scummy :D
So, a few words about the WC deal and what it may mean.
As someone who, as a mod, made a conscious decision in SIN to list an example of a townie role title in the rules before SIN started, I was aware that doing so as a mod would have an impact on the game.
You'll note that Glot has not included such an example in this game, which I don't believe is an oversight on his part.
There have been several games where the role title aspect is a factor on Day 1
Cartoon Chaos and Star Wars 2 both had cases where the town was able to sniff out scum D1 based around the lack of a townie role title being available beforehand.
Its a simple but effective enough plan.
Assuming that scum arent shown a townie role title in their private PM, if one isn't given early in the game, then day 1, before any townies have died (therefore showing what a townie role title looks like, text color and wording) people of interest are asked to hint at what their role titles look like.
If the hints seem off or incorrect in some way, as WC's does, then you can start pushing for more specifics. Worst case scenario, you out a Townie Mason (something similar happened in Marvel mafia and really hurt the town long term) best case you find scum and start working on a voting pattern early.
Now, WC's claim is problematic for several reasons. Firstly, he changed his claim. First he said his role title was yellow colored, when following responses seemed less than impressed, he said he made a mistake and claimed to be green colored with this
Non-Earth Aligned
This was the second whammy of the townie role title, because, assuming I'm town, I am listed as Earth Aligned.
Superficially, this may appear to bolster WC's claim. But I submit to you a very simple theory. The win condition of scum could very easily be to outnumber all those of Earth alignment, meaning that scum could safely assume town members will be called Earth aligned for this game.
If so, this would explain the 'Non Earth Aligned' verbiage in WC's claim not as merely odd phrasing for an Indy survivor, but actually the extension of a formulated fake claim based on the limited information scum may have on hand concerning the townie role title.
Whether my theory is correct or not, even if you believe WC, he is claiming a survivor... and while such a roile isn't a threat to the town D1, later on that will be different as townie numbers dwindle, as they always do in Mafia games.
In either case I believe WC makes for a good D1 lynch, but I also know that the town has a unique weapon at its disposal right now with the lack of a townie role title on display, so I would caution rushing to lynch WC just yet

The thing is Anti, (and this is meant as no disrespect to WC because I think he is a good guy) WC lies all of the time in these games. Even when he has no reason to. Heck he played town and he tried to get 400 who was another townie lynched just for the heck of it.
My point being I would hate to over think WC's motivations one way or the other. If everyone wants to lynch him by all means do so. Because I am not buying indy survivor thing at all.

You are correct technically, but I was making a broader point.
An example.
in my game, SIN
The town Title was called "Silverton Aligned"
Now, if in my rules listing I just had said "Town Aligned Protector" and D1 someone claimed their title to be a "Town Aligned Doctor" and every non scum player had a PM that said "Silverton Aligned X" then the wording alone would raise eyebrows you see.
I use the term Town to denote non scum, but apparently as more its discussed here, non scum may be listed as 'Humanity Aligned' or 'Earth Aligned' and perhaps a few other things.
In otehr words, it seems doubtful that the game has a true blue Town aligned Town.
If that makes sense.

The first color is pink, and they are oinks from a pig, which are usually pink, so that explains that one. :p The rest are just sound effects, save for the teal color, which might've hinted that it was a human speaking.
It's actually SeaGreen. My role is Teal.
That wasn't a human talking in the write up... It was most certainly an Irken character, probably Zim.

Anti do you see your color in the opening write-up?
As I said, the opening write-up primarily features pink and sea green. My role (Humanity Aligned) is teal.
Regardless, the character speaking is Zim.
If his role color is in the write-up, he doesn't have the same color as me and shares his color with pig sounds or the primary villain (or one of them).
This, however, means very little.
My point: This question doesn't give us any answers. If he says yes, he's probably mistaken as I doubt "Earth Aligned" would be pink or ridiculously close to another color (sea green and teal are slightly different forum text colors). If he says no, it doesn't mean anything either for the same reasons.

That off green color looks awfully close.
As for the colored text in general.
Sometimes mods like to drop hints in their first write ups. While I am not claiming it as a fact, it wouldn't shock me if the game had alignments with colors featured in that write up. Even though its a small game, it occurs to me that Glot didn't list an official "Town" role title because there isn't an official town...
If true I think I'd want to hear more from WC about his supposed win condition.

You seem to know this Zim stuff. So why not talk about the theme for a bit.
Given whats known so far, who would the scum be? Character wise/alignment wise.
Every Invader Zim character is stupid to some degree.
The Almighty Tallest sent Zim to Earth just to get rid of him. Zim thinks he's here to destroy everything/enslave humanity/do generic evil stuff and constantly tries to. Dib is the only person that knows he's an alien, but he consistently fails to do anything about it.
All other humans are barely more intelligent than sheep.
In another universe, there'd be more obvious bounds of good and evil, but everyone in this universe is so incompetent that they cause more harm to their cause than good half the time.
Zim and the humans/Dib would be enemies in this game. (That makes Zim scum, which is odd for a main character.) The Almighty Tallest are the leaders of Zim's planet, so they're scum too. However, I can't be sure they're aligned with Zim directly. Zim almost destroyed his own planet once accidentally...
As for other aliens: There aren't many in this universe of note.
Tak is probably a serial killer or aligned with The Tallest. She's an invader that Zim accidentally prevented from completing the invadership test by over-zealously attacking a vending machine or something. (In the episode she was in, she showed up on earth to hijack Zim's mission to prove to The Tallest that she deserved to be sent on this mission instead. This is funny considering Zim's mission was an attempt at keeping him as far away from the Irken forces as possible...)
I have a feeling The Resisty might be a group. In one episode, Zim hacks the Irken Mothership (The Massive) so he could send The Tallest towards Earth so he can see his latest evil plan while Dib uses Tak's crashed ship to hack The Massive too. So, you end up with 2 characters that consistently fail piloting The Massive. Suddenly, a ship consisting of races that are enemies to Irk (pretty much all races) appears, calling themselves "The Resisty". They suck too, but if there's a mason group, it may be them.
There's a lot of random, non-human characters that can be in this, but in general, it's probably humans vs. some amalgam of aliens.
So, anyway, Wrestling Century! You may actually be one of the more helpful townies during this game and are also, no offense, one of the people most easily proven to be scum. So: What color are the humans?
/\ see above /\
Tak is the closest thing to competent you'll find. She was only actually in 1 episode, but she's a fairly popular character and I'd bet she's a SK. She may be a mafia member too.
The most significant "scum" characters are the most significant Irken characters (with Irk being the home planet): Zim, The Almighty Tallest (Purple and Red), and Tak.
Also, aligned with Zim for sure is GIR: A malfunctioning SIR unit. He's a robot and his behavior can't be described. The best way I can put it is "Chaotic Stupid".
How the above 5 are broken up, IDK. I wouldn't be surprised if Glot just smushed them together as the main mafia.
I am certain there is more than 5 scum, but I'm not sure who else would be... WC's character fits, but I want to see some dead people show up first.
If you really broke the 25 most significant characters down into groups, there's be 1-3 semi-intelligent bad guys, 1-3 semi-intelligent humans, and everyone else would be an indy or classified as "too stupid to live".
We're talking about a universe where a girl got her foot stuck in a 4-5 inch hole and became a cultural phenomena with dozens of people showing up to show their support with "Save Moofy" (the girl's name) shirts and other themed junk (even a Moofy moon bounce). Even the president showed up with the military to save her.
All of this happened in about 20-25 minutes, real time. (In Zim's front yard because an android gopher tried to get her to go away and stop trying to sell him cookies. She then stepped in a gopher track and got "stuck".)

It's worth noting that Zim went to get trained on Hobo 13 so he could get weapons technology reserved for highly trained Irken soldiers.
The Almighty Tallest let him go assuming he'd die (while betting money on it). Instead, he unnecessarily injured/perhaps killed other trainees and survived training. (In case it hasn't been mentioned, the Irken societal/governmental hierarchy is determined by height...)

WC still seems off to me, but I can see the logic of letting him have a few days to try and find Zim, if scum don't off him first.

When it comes to the humans side, I thought simply the aforementioned win condition was gonna be hinted at or implied but obviously there had to be more than that dished out. Guess some people just wanna have first dibs at being 'proven'. And subsequently will be some of the first on the graveyard.
Another day another mafia and WC has been pressured, much to note as well. I guess it turned out to be useful in the end, but surely it can't be a trend we're gonna keep falling into every single game.

Did I say all aliens?
No.
I said, likely those who cannot post yet are aliens. Because what other reason can you think of? People who are asleep? LOL.
Maybe there's something that's coming for humans or Zim. I haven't followed the show much so I don't know what could fit this theory.
You seem quite sure for someone who hasn't followed the show much. :o
If PP claims a posting restriction I'd question it. Wouldn't that be like the third or fourth time he's said he's had one?
I can recall him being quite vocal with his displeasure at such roles in Sunnydale, so if he does claim it again, it needs to come packaged with a lot of cussing and fussing from PP.
If he can post freely after Day 1 and still flips out, I'd call him petty. Unless probably he has sooo so much to say but then again, should he be on the side of the town, this just helps him collect notes like a college student.

You misunderstood.
I watched the show. I know the premise. I know the characters. I loved the episode where Zim ate body parts.
But I didn't follow it, by that I meant I didn't watch it episode per episode. :P
So I wouldn't know every thing about the theme.

He's played enough games and has the ability to think (allegedly) so simple stuff like colour mix-ups are suspicious.

I agree, if he ever gets his act together it probably will come back to bite us. I don't know the show either, only time I was ever exposed to Invader Zim was in mjd's Cartoon Chaos game when I was Dib the paranoid investigator. That said, I actually believe him atm, we'll see if I still do after he lies about his role, results, night actions etc... come next day phase

1. My first post was a multiquote - which most of my posts in this game will be forced to be; to get the max use I can out of them; considering my restriction
2. It's more than 2 posts; I get 5 per phase. Which honestly, I'm not a power poster anyway, so it's not a terrible hindrance, just a bit of an annoyance.
3. It's day 1, totally feel comfortable throwing away a post on day 1. Later in the game, believe me I'll be much more selective.
It could be that he has a post length limit or has to post over or under a #... I don't know, we can always ask him... :p

It's not that I feel he should or shouldn't be lynched, as much as it's to the towns advantage to keep the day phase going as long as we can, and learn as much as we can, as well as avoid a near-certain mislynch. (I mean, how often do scum get lynched Day 1?)
As far as WC goes, it's true that he gets leniancy due to his track record, that will probably end up biting us when he does get a scum role, but the way I see it, if he is scum, we'd probably know about it by atleast Day 3, so.. :p Plus, everyone sees him as inexperianced - which really doesn't get much sympathy from me, seeing as he's been in about twice the amount of games that I've been in, and I did pretty well in my debut, according to my mentor Arrows, but I digress - and in need of learning the game..how is he going to accomplish that if he's always lynched Day 1? I mean yeah, you could read through old games to get a grasp of it, like I did, but the best way to learn is by experiance.
If he can survive and make himself useful - or if he comes up scum - then eventually that leniancy will go away.

How about not do what you did day 1? That would seem like a good idea. I mean the first time you say he is new, the second time you still go with him being new. Now (I think his 4th time) it is he clear either doesn’t read anything clearly before posting or he is playing like this on purpose either way he should know better.
I mean if I was ever on a scum team with him I would think about quitting and just end up saying don’t say anything about the other scum members and go crazy. I don’t think I would even allow him to see a scum forum and just keep him in the dark as much as possible.

I'm an individually aligned character, so I won't be much of help to scum or town. But I'm not an SK or anything like that, so like I said, I'm basically just here. I'm yellow colored.
Claimed Indy that wouldn't be much help to scum or town, the inference is to a survivor.
So, aside from the yellow/green thing. The claim about finding Zim contradicts what he tried to claim early on as well.
2 Contradictions within the same claim? I think he lied outright.
