BZP Mafia Discussion

[Trijhak]

Here's an idea for a Mafia game, guys:

 

BONKLE MAFIA #12344321: Subtitle Goes Here: Incompetency of the Village/Pyro Overload/Revenge of the Dark Hunters/BIONICLE Hitman Whatever: Mafia Style/Another Subtitle

 

PLOT: Evil Dark Hunters have taken over the universe. The villagers must stop them! Also there are seventeen pyros! And some other less important people!

 

Roles:

 

Village-aligned:

 

x1 Turagelder: The Turaga is dead and thus cannot vote. Any attempted vote will kill a random villager.

x1 Medoctoric: The Medoctoric skipped medical school, meaning that any attempt to save someone will only increase their likelihood of death.

x1 Detectinvestigator: Incompetent and corrupt is the only way to describe this role. They often find evidence incriminating innocent people and will never find out who makes up the mafia.

x150 Matoran Running Around Like Headless Chickens: These villagers can't do anything right. All votes for guilty parties do not count, all votes for innocent people count for three times as much. Often found running around like headless chickens accusing each other of being guilty.

 

Mafia-aligned:

 

x30 Dark Hunters - these Dark Hunters hunt the village-aligned. They're Dark Hunters, and Dark Hunters are way more powerful than Matoran, so they can kill 3 Matoran per night.

x1 Nidhiki: This role is so ugly that the kill just simply by looking at something. Roles die if they use their action on this role.

x1 Krekka: This role is so dumb that they must die on the night they are sent out to kill.

x1 Sentrahk: Technically not living, so the are unkillable.

x1 Shadowed One - decides who to kill, also plays Bonkle Hitman with his underlings each round.

 

Neutral

 

x17 Pyros: Fire. Fire. Fire. Fire! 

x1 Curse of the Pyro: Aims to kill all the Pyros. Persists in spirit if killed.

x1 Extremely Overpowered Role If They Survive To The End But That Will Never Happen: Exactly what it says on the tin.

x2 Cultists: Converts five people per night to their obscure cult! 

x1 Cheesy BIONICLE Movie: Kills using the terrible lines of BIONICLE movies!

 

The twist: Everyone that asks about a twist gets twisted to death! Also, 17 pyros. 

 

 

I think this is clearly the best game to be proposed, ever. 

[ToaKapura1234]

Trying to decide if this is spam or not

[Portalfig]

best game of all time 10/10

 

(for that matter, I always thought a sitewide mafia game could be cool haha)

 

(too bad it isn't ever happening) =P

[Underscore]

I want to host Deaths can decieve when summer commences.

[Taka Nuvia]

You had me at 150 matoran. Beautiful. This concept is a pure work of art. :3

[Dapper I Guess]

 

 

The premise is that each role has it's own scoring system, which allows them to earn Points each round based on their performance- say, the Medic earns Points for saving lives, the Mafia earns Points for evading lynchings, et cetera. The winning team gets a pat on the back, but the only true winner is the surviving player with the most Points.

In other words, the Medic's chances of winning are rather slim. =P

 

I agree with Quis Oves Pugnat. The medic earning a single point relies on both himself and the mafia targeting the same player in one night, and to win, this has to happen consistently. The chance of the medic even earning a point are rather slim.

 

I said nothing about a single Point, haha.

 

Those were just examples of role-specific methods of scoring Points. There are lots more.

hmm

 

alrighty, I'm intrigued. 

 

something where we like actually have to play good?

 

I guess I'm cool with you hosting this sidegame, Vimes.

 

*nods*

[Shadowhawk]

Same here.

[Quisoves Potoo]

[pedantic]Well, the Village is ostensibly Lawful Good.

Oh...

You mean "play well."[/pedantic]

 

The solution to that's easy. Make the Anti-Village consist entirely of Pyros.

 

This reminds me, I've an idea for a game in which the Mafia is Village-aligned (and the only special Villagers, at that.) The Anti-Village is a version of the Cult, with the traditional Village-alligned powers of Detection and whatnot, which wins by eliminating the Mafia.

 

A sort of topsy-turvy Mafia, as it were.

 

It still needs some ironing out (primarily to balance the two sides,) but it should be a good deal less labyrinthine than Damage Control.

[Portalfig]

I mean

 

we are kinda lynching the turaga atm in XXII (i think maybe? *Shrugggg*)

 

which would probably be considered Lawful Evil.

 

So nah I mean play good and stop lynching the good people. =P

 

(and that sounds pretty dang cool QP haha)

[Burnmad]

I think the Village, by virtue of having regular lynchings, would be Chaotic Good rather than Lawful Good. =P

 

Also, I just got an idea for a D&D alignment-based Mafia.

 

*Snaps fingers*

*Snaps fingers*

i call chaotic stupid

yes that is totally an alignment in DnD you don't even know

[Dapper I Guess]

So, am I hosting the side game? If so, I'm excited.

[fishers64]

I support Vimes' Mafia. 

 

yes, that was a totally messed up statement. Context, my dear Watson. 

[Valendale]

Maybe. There's a lot of other people who want it, but none of them have said anything. I say we wait until the 5th (one week from Kingdoms ending) and if no one else has stepped up by then, you'll get it. If they have we'll take it to a vote.

[Let's Henshin!]

I mean I'm still up for hosting, but you guys seem pretty sold on Vimes.

Do you have a game concept in mind?

 

It's okay if ya don't, but I take it that's what we use to judge these things...

[Trijhak]

Feudal Kingdoms is already over.

Also supporting Arsene's mafia.

 

(Side question: why are there three people that have been drafted into the military? Is BZP under attack?)

[Let's Henshin!]

I do have a pretty fleshed out game in mind. 

 

Just can't really explain things due to the large number of Secret Roles. 

Edited April 2, 2015 by Sora Tryon

[Quisoves Potoo]

I would like to see a more detailed outline of Arsene's game before I support it. It sounds intriguing, but it could easily be executed wrong.

[fishers64]

Can you tell us how many there are, and whether there is a Mafia?

 

I would also like to play said game. I enjoy Secret Roles. 

[Let's Henshin!]

According to my notes, and I was thinking of tweaking some ratios, but I currently have 15 roles. 

 

7 Mafia. 

 

4 Villagers, 3 of which are secret. 

 

4 Secret neutral roles. 

 

Of these the neutrals have a chance to increase at the expense of the mafia decreasing. 

 

Game was also planned for 30 people, so if that's not possible ratios might be tweaked again.

D-Did you just-?

 

I haven't completely finalized my idea yet, unfortunately. It is very very close to being done, though.

[Let's Henshin!]

So did we ever decide on who's hosting the next side game?

So did we ever decide on who's hosting the next side game?

 

Well I thought Vimes was, but it's been four days so who knows at this point

[Dapper I Guess]

I don't think it's been decided yet. Has it?

[Burnmad]

Pretty much.

 

We decided that you will never host the next game!

 

*Snaps fingers*

[Dapper I Guess]

Oh, okay. I should get on that, shouldn't I?

[Quisoves Potoo]

I haven't given my support yet (I'm still waiting on further details,) but I seem to be the only one.

[shadow pridak money gang]

i'll throw my weight behind onarax, he's been waiting to do this since like

-Tyler

[otter]

I'm with this guy. i mean, not like my vote has any weight really, but still

[Quisoves Potoo]

I can get behind Onarax.

 

I really don't have much of a preference, but seeing as Arsene has yet to post the rules for his game, I suppose Onarax has my vote, currently.

[Portalfig]

aight well 

 

I can tell you right now that onarax got my vote for next

 

I guess it has been a very long while hasn't it, I just wasn't under the impression that onarax wanted to do it so much as he was willing to do it. 

 

so I started a bandwagon so we can just go and play some mafior

 

but yeah so basically sorry onarax I will try and randomly start a bandwagon for you asap k

[fishers64]

I vote Onerax. He has been waiting long enough. (Secret Role bias here.)

[Let's Henshin!]

Haha. Wow, thanks guys, that was a sudden turn of events. 

 

I'll wait out the day to see if anyone else has anything they want to say, but if not I can probably get a game up by Wednesday. 

[Dapper I Guess]

...Did I start my game too early?

[Let's Henshin!]

Ah well. There's always next time I guess.

[Voltex]

Ah well. There's always next time I guess.

 

I was too late to do so yesterday but consider this my vote for next game being yours.

[Dapper I Guess]

Seems fair to me. I cast my vote for this Onarax. Sora Tryon, right?
