Welcome everyone! I hope you all have a great time. Remember: This is a game!

If you have a question, do one of the following:
  • Ask an Inexperienced-Challenged (IC) player.
  • Ask a Semi-Experienced (SE) player.
  • Ask me, the mod, by pressing that nice little PM button under this post, or by drawing my attention by using
    Mod:
    or something similar in
    bold
    . Example:
    Mod: What's the tenth decimal of pi?
    (which is 5 obviously :D)


RULES


THE STRAIGHT-FORWARD, OBVIOUS RULES:

1. Use your common sense, don't be a jerk, and have fun!
2. The Mod should be respected and his posts should be followed.
3. Treat each other as you want to be treated yourself. No harassing, prejudice, or anything else along those lines will be tolerated.
4. Players may only talk in English.

GENERAL GAME RULES:

1. You
may not
chat to any players outside of the game unless your role PM tells you otherwise. (Mafia are allowed to chat
during night
in a little QuickTopic (info about QuickTopics) of theirs, but pro-town players are NOT allowed to chat outside of this topic).
2. Votes must be
bolded
, or they may not count. (Format a vote like this or in similar way: "
Vote: DarkLightA
")
3. Unvotes are nice, but I will count your vote if you forget it. I.e., if you want to vote a player, but are already voting a different player, post in this format, or something similar:
Unvote
Vote: DarkLightA

4. You may vote “No Lynch”. If a majority of No Lynches is reached, the day will end without a lynch.
5. Once a majority of the players (1/2 of the players + 1, rounded down), a lynch will take place and the day will end.
6. If a majority isn’t reached at the deadline of a day, a no lynch will take place, and the game will go over to the Night phase.
7. Unvoting a player who has been hammered will not change his/her fate.
8. A player is not lynched until a death scene is posted, so he or she MAY POST during twilight, but not the following day.
9. Players with night actions may choose to send “No Action” to the Mod, hence choosing to skip their night action for the night.
10. Nights are 72 hours. If you have not PMed me your actions by then, the same action as with a “No Action” will be taken.
11. [http://mafiascum.net/wiki/index.php?title=Day]Days[/url] are 3 weeks long, but extensions of up to one week may be granted in rare situations.
12. No quoting or fake-quoting any mod PMs will be tolerated.
13. Players with night actions may not perform this in Night 0 (Confirmation stage), apart from the mafia team who get to chat during the confirmation stage.
14. Prods will be issued after 48 hours’ inactivity. A prodded player has 24 hours to reply, before a replacement is looked after.

"THE REST":

1. I, the Mod, reserve the right to adjust these rules as I feel necessary.
2. Players may not use any means to try to hide text from other players, like using the forum background color, or insanely
small
text.
3.
Bold
all messages to the Mod, so they aren’t missed. (Format it like this or similarly: "
Mod: Help please.
")
4.
Green text is the mod color.
Don't impersonate me.
5. If you anticipate that you won’t be active for more than 48 hours, please say so in the thread.
6. Contact the Mod about any problems or issues.
7. No, the Mod is not a super human. Please point out any mistakes he makes, gently.
8. Violated rules will be dealt with according to their severity. Possibly, in severe cases, ending in a Mod Kill.

Hey y'all.

I only have 1 mafia game under my belt, which I did horrible in. I think I've learned from my mistakes, though, so I think I'll be able to redeem myself in this game.

Also,

Hello, everybody! Welcome to the game. I'm Netopalis, your IC for this game. I'm taking a rather long car trip today, so I won't be able to post much right now, but I did want to start everybody off with a few questions:

1) How did you end up on Mafiascum?
2) Why do you play Mafia?
3) How would you describe your play style? Your personality?
4) Coke or pepsi?
5) How do you make decisions in general? In Mafia?
6) Would you say that you're nervous about this game?

I won't be random voting, as I hate random votes. I prefer to make a vote based on the answers to these questions. I'll be answering them myself once everybody else has answered.
My posts are best read in the calm, reassuring voice of Morgan Freeman. I don't sound anything like him, but they sound best that way.

1) Random searching on google for mafia forums. I liked this one the best, so I joined up.
2) I'm planing to major in Psychology next fall. The way I figure it, I might as well do stuff in my free time which I can apply that to.
3) In my last game, I was way too cautious, not really understanding the way the early game works. I mistook pressure bandwagons as scum quicklynches, and directed my suspicion against some of the most proactive townies. Now that I've learned from that, you can expect me to be a lot more aggressive. In the early game, I'll be fishing for possible scumtells, and once I decide someone's suspicious, you can expect me to pressure until I'm reasonably certain that you're in the clear.
4) Neither. Can't stand either of them.
5) My decisions are going to be very well-thought out. I'll be keeping a word document open during the game, so I can record notable things said/player alliances/predictions for the future, etc.. Besides the early game, my votes will have tremendous thought put into them.
6) Not nervous at all! I might mess up again, but that's the best way to learn! I'm ready to give this game my all!

You sound very thorough and eager - you should do well here. Follow up quesiton: How would you say that somebody you're pressuring is "In the clear"?

That's a tough question to answer. It really depends on the circumstance. Generally, if they can produce a well-thought out response, and manage not to contradict themselves, all clear them ftm (fot the moment). A lot of my thinking will be based on what actions ultimately benefit which faction, and what will create the safest environment for scum to hide in.

@ Weird
Its really not that hard to sum up your playstyle/personality. There's no reason not to do it, unless of course, you don't want to set a standard that you'll have to live up to later in the game.

Well, thinking about it, I would say that I'm cautious, but once I've decided to do something, and there isn't a good reason not to, I would do that thing. Also, I too have made a list that has everyone on it where I put my suspicions, and, when I think my suspicions are strong enough, I will share them. Right now, I only have a few weak suspicions. I didn't put this in my earlier post because I didn't really think about it.

@ Netopalis:
Expand on what exactly? Anything in particular?

RQS= smart and awesome.
1. My bro
2. To have fun.
3. I can't really sum it up but I'll just say I like the humor of it all.
4. Coke, duh
5. I make a decision when theres a valid case and a lot of info. Nuf' said.
6. Absolutely not. I've this would be my 5th game and when its done I should be able to IC. Speaking of IC I'm an SE in this game. If you have any questions and noone else is around I'll gladly answer.

I am always happy to answer any questions directed at me involving trying to find out I'm scum.

As of suspicions, I got none. Everyone has an equal chance to be scum and not everyone has said anything.

@EVERYONE
What is your policy on lurkers? Lynchem all?
I'll answer it once everyone else does.

And why not!?

Okay, well,
1) I don't know how my sister found it, but I spent enough time looking at it over her shoulder that I got interested.
2) Apart from it being fun, in a way it's a multi-player logic game, and I like testing my smarts.
3) It would take a while to expand on post 16, and I don't really want to with all the time I spent on it.
4) Coke is disgusting, and Pepsi is even worse.
5) Like I said, in a way this is a logic game, and I like to do the logical thing.
6) No, I mean after all, it is just a game, albeit a cool game

Does that clear it up, Neto?

I'd vote for lurkers. I don't necessarily consider it a scumtell, but not voting for them sets a precedent that scum can hide behind. I'll feel a lot better if we make it clear to the scum that they can't just coast by and let the town do all the talking.

Hello all

1) How did you end up on Mafiascum?

Google, i was looking for some mafia.

2) Why do you play Mafia?

to exercise my brain!

3) How would you describe your play style? Your personality?

Do i have one already? Im a newbie!

4) Coke or pepsi?

Beer!

5) How do you make decisions in general? In Mafia?

Using brain, not heart.

6) Would you say that you're nervous about this game?

The right word here is anxious.

@EVERYONE
What is your policy on lurkers? Lynchem all?

What is a lurker?

-----------

I had played once, and only once, in anoher site, and that was long ago. Questions for the questioners:

Why do you not answer your own questions first? And what is the objective of those questions? Do you think you can fish someone being scum for that?

@Netopalis
Why do you act like a teacher with @theguide730?
You asked questions, he answered, you said thinks like "you should do well here" and "excellent" as you were supposed to say people are right or wrong...
Looks even as you were connected somehow.

@ Die (would rather you rather me call you that, or prediger):

Lurkers are those who don't contribute much to the game. As in, a week goes by, and they only post 7 times. They're just lurking around, watching the action unfold. This is a good thing for scum to do (if the town lets them), because it means that they won't be giving away any tells.

Also, Neto is an IC (Inexperienced Challenged). He's familiar with the game, so he's here to give us tips. IIRC, Badger is our other IC.

@Neto
I'm gonna echo Die here. I'd like to hear you answer your own questions.
