Prisoner's Dilemma Mafia II {Game Over!}

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

Welcome to Prisoner's Dilemma Mafia II

Current Game Status: Game over!

The town police chief was very satisfied with the initial results of the state-of-the-art prison he built. The most frequent fate of prisoners was the desired result: death. Now the town has grown bigger, and signs point towards the infiltration of more bad guys. So the police chief stepped up the prison renovations and increased the prison capabilities. What will happen this time is anyone's guess...

Same town, bigger population, more good guys, more bad guys, new and improved prison, and one simple question: "yes or no?"

MM’s Regular Rules (Stolen and Modified from Mr. Flay):

• The game will have a 72-hour Confirmations/Pregame phase after roles are sent. Then the game will begin with Day 1.
• Votes should be in bold for them to count, like this:
  Send: MM
  . Unvotes should likewise be bolded (
  Unsend: MM
  ) so that I can spot them easier.
• Nights usually will last up to 96 hours, but may be shorter or longer depending on circumstances.
• Dead men tell no tales. If you get killed, stop talking until the game is over.
• Do not discuss this game with other players outside of this thread, unless your role PM specifically stated you could do so.
• Do not directly quote any PMs you receive; this holds true for any future messages you receive from me as well.
• If you see something you don't understand,
  ASK!
  If you have any questions feel free to PM me directly.
• I will prod players for being inactive for over 96 hours, and then possibly replace at my discretion.
• Treat this game as a commitment; if you're going to be gone for a significant period of time,
  let us know
  . I will replace severely inactive players.
• Any action which would be illegal to
  actually do
  is also illegal to
  fake
  (for example, posting a
  made-up
  PM that shows a Cop result of guilty/innocent).
• Have fun; don't be an ass;
  participate
  !
• All my decisions are final. I also reserve the power to modify the rules when needed.

Then both players will receive poisonous injections with the chance of death being the average of the two percentages selected.

Special Rules (add “unless specified otherwise” to end of each rule):

1. Day 1 has a 6-week deadline. Day 2: 5 weeks. Day 3: 4 weeks. Day 4 and later: 3 weeks.

2. Each player has two votes to vote on two different players to be sent to prison. Both votes cannot be used on same player. Players should use the tags

Send: MM

and

Unsend: MM

. I will not accept bolded “votes” and “unvotes”.

3. Whenever two players have reached the majority of votes at the same time, they get sent to prison for interrogation during the night. Those two players cannot post further for the rest of the current day.

4. Each day there can be up to 3 pairs of players sent to prison. When one pair of players has reached majority, all votes are reset for deciding the next pair of prisoners to be sent to prison. If players feel no more players should be sent to prison, the tags

Request: end day

and

Unrequest: end day

should be used. A request to end the day resets the 2 current votes of a player. The day ends immediately if there is a majority of end-day-requests or if 3 pairs of players have been sent to prison.

5. If deadline is reached and no pair of players has been sent to prison yet, the two players with the most votes at the deadline will be sent to prison. The tiebreaker is whoever reached a certain number of votes first. If the deadline is reached and at least one pair of players has already been sent to prison, nothing happens and the day ends.

6. While in prison, the pairs of players will be asked the question: “Is the other player mafia?” The results are shown above.

7. I will publicly announce the Yes/No answers for prison interrogations and the Percentages given in the Yes-Yes PD scenario.

8. Players in prison cannot use abilities on others outside of prison and others outside of prison cannot use abilities on players in prison.

You are a

Protown Vanilla Townie

. You have no special abilities. You win with the town when all Antitown forces are eliminated.

Note: Prisoner’s Dilemma Mafia I is Mini 697 in Coney Island.

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

All role have been sent. It is now the

Pregame Phase

. Players may post to

confirm

and

talk about anything not game-related

.

Day 1

will begin approximately 72 hours from this post.

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

It is now Day 1. With 25 alive, 13 is the majority!

Deadline is 3:00 PM EST on Monday, February 2nd, 2009.

Mod: Clarification please. If someone gets a power from being in jail, do they keep it until they use it, or until the next night cycle and then it's lost?

All powers except doc protection can only be used during the next day. Doc protection can only be used during the next night.

Mod, do doc protections prevent daykills?

No

I think inactivity can be attributed to the holidays, so I will check activity after the New Year.

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

You are a Protown Avenger. Your special ability is Two-shot. If sent to prison, may choose to escape prison that night. The other player will be released. Everything about the escape will be publicly announced next day. Then during anytime anyday thereafter, you may choose to daykill one of the players who voted you into prison via PM.

Plum and DrippingGoofball are the third pair to be sent to prison!

The 3 pairs for Day 1 are:

SlySly/Lowell
Empking/RossWilliam
Plum/DrippingGoofball

It is now Night 1. Deadline for choices is 9PM EST on Saturday, January 31st, 2009.

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

A new morning means an appearance by the Police Chief. He starts off by announcing the interrogation results:

"SlySly/Lowell said No/No"
"Empking/RossWilliam said No/Yes"
"Plum/DrippingGoofball said No/No"

He continues, "There were three total deaths last night. The first is obviously the execution of Empking. The second is unfortunately CounselWolf, who was shot by a pistol. The third fortunately is a mafia member Abstract Actuary, who was killed by sniper fire."

But then he surprises everyone by saying:

"I have decided to prematurely capture DrippingGoofball, SlySly, and Plum into prison for Day 2. You all will decide who will pair up with each of these players in prison tonight."

Empking, Protown Vanilla Townie, killed by lethal injection Night 1
CounselWolf, Protown Radar Chip Implanter, shot Night 1

Abstract Actuary, Mafia Goon, sniped Night 1

You are a Protown Radar Chip Implanter. Each day you must PM me to implant a radar chip into a target’s body. Each night thereafter the chip will track where the target is going. Only the person with the radar receiver will have the results of the tracking each night, and you do not know who that is.

It is now Day 2.
A majority of 9 is needed to send someone to prison along with DrippingGoofball.
Today each player will only have 1 send/vote.
Deadline is 11:59PM EST on Saturday, March 7th, 2009.
If the 3 pairings are not finalized by deadline, randomization occurs.

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

@Mod: Did RossWilliam choose 100%?

There was no need to choose a percentage

Mod: can people change their chosen powers from the dilemma after day has started? If so is there any limit on this?

Basically if a target for a power has not been submitted, any powers could be chosen.

It is now Night 3. Deadline for choices is 7PM EST on Monday, March 30th, 2009.

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

The town has been dwindling rather quickly over the past few days. Unfortunately this trend seems to continue. The Police Chief shows up and announces:

"Our interrogations last night yielded the following:
DrippingGoofball - No
Percy - Yes
Zach - No
Jakep - No
ortolan - Yes
English Argo - No "

"So DGB and EA were executed instanteously."

He continues, "Two more bodies were found last night. hp [leaves] was killed by a pistol and SlySly was killed by sniper fire."

DrippingGoofball, Protown Rogue FBI Agent, executed by lethal injection Night 3
English Argo, Protown Tracker, executed by lethal injection Night 3
hp [leaves], Protown Vanilla Townie, shot Night 3
SlySly, Protown Miller, sniped Night 3

You are a Protown Rogue FBI Agent. Once during game, anytime during any day, you may send 3 players’ names via PM to me and capture them to put them into a scenario similar to the “Yes-Yes” section of the Prisoner’s Dilemma box. Each captured player will be asked, “From 0-100%, what should the poisonous injection chance of death be for each of the other two players?” Then the three captured players will receive poisonous injections with the chances of death being the averages of the 6 given percentages

You are a Protown Tracker. Each night you will receive radar tracking signals from players that have radar chips implants in their bodies. You do not know who is implanting the radar chips. You also will not know who is being tracked until you actually receive the signals.

It is now Day 4.
With 9 alive, a majority of 5 is needed to send a pair of players to prison.
Deadline is 11:59PM EST on Monday, April 20th, 2009.

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

As everyone was debating who to send to prison, a sudden loud gunshot was heard. It was undeniably one of the daykill powers...

zwetschenwasser, Protown Variable Bodyguard, daykilled Day 4.

You are a Protown Variable Bodyguard. Your special abilities are conditional upon the number of pairs of players sent to prison:

If 3 pairs were sent to prison that day: That night, you may PM me a target to protect. Both the target and yourself are protected. You will also kill whoever attempts to kill the target or yourself.

If 2 pairs were sent to prison that day: That night, you may PM a target to protect. Only the target is protected. If the target is targetted by a killer, you will sacrifice yourself and kill that killer. If the target is targetted by multiple killers, both the target and yourself die and none of the killers is killed in return.

If 1 pair was sent to prison that day: That night, you may PM me a target to protect. Only the target is protected. If the target is targetted by a killer, you will sacrifice yourself. If the target is targetted by multiple killers, both the target and yourself die.

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

An ominous feeling fills the air as the town sees so many of its members dwindling without many deaths of the Mafia. This sense of doom became reality as zachattack, Percy, jakep, and solorpg each took care of someone not in the Mafia...

"No prison can stop us from domination!"

ortolan, Protown Vanilla Townie, killed in Endgame
killa seven, Protown Miller, killed in Endgame
Moratorium, Protown Prison Security Guard, killed in Endgame

Dr Pepper, Serial Killer, killed in Endgame

zachattack, Mafia Godfather, survives
Percy, Mafia Goon, survives
jakep, Mafia Goon, survives
solorpg, Mafia Goon, survives

Game Over! Mafia Wins!

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

Prisoner’s Dilemma Mafia II Setup:

25 total players

1 SK: Vel-Rahn Koon/Dr Pepper

You are a

Serial Killer

. You have the following special abilities:

1 Kill attempt per night: During each night, you may PM me a kill choice.
One-Shot Bulletproof Vest: Protection from the first kill attempt on you. You will be notified if this occurs.
One-Shot Heroism: The first time you are sent to prison, people will recognize you to be a town hero, so both you and your prison partner will be released without undergoing the interrogation process. That night you will still be staying in prison, so you are essentially protected and roleblocked for that night.

You also know that there is no Protown Vigilante in this game.
You win when you are the last one standing.

6 Mafia:

zachattack, The Central Scrutinizer/jakep, Albert B. Rampage, Stephoscope, Percy, solorpg:
You all are in the

Mafia group

.

zachattack is the Godfather

with cop investigation immunity.

The rest of you are Goons

. Your group has the following special abilities:

Traitor Recruitment: There is a

Mafia Traitor

in the game and you do not know who it is. The Traitor knows who are in your Mafia group and your group's abilities. The Traitor's win condition is the same as your group's. During any night, one group member can PM me to recruit the Traitor back into the Mafia group. This would turn the Traitor into a Goon. Before being recruited, the Traitor will appear innocent to sane cop investigations. The night of recruiting and after recruiting, the Traitor will appear guilty to sane cop investigations, just like the Goons.

Nightkills: Each night any member may PM a kill target. The member carrying out the kill must also be specified.

Communication: Each member has the ability to communicate to the group during the Pregame Phase and nights. Reading and posting on the group Quicktopic thread is recommended due to convenience and the ability for me to post updates for your Mafia group. Mafia members in prison cannot communicate/post with other members but can still read the Quicktopic thread. I trust that you know the Honor System.[/url]

Bulletproof Vest: Each night any group member may PM me to specify which group member wears the BV to be immune to all kill attempts. If nothing is submitted, I will assume the Godfather wears the BV.

Poison Gas Kit: One-shot. Any member may PM me to specify sending one member during the current night to prison to stealthily install poison gas bombs. The next night the gas will leak and have a 60% chance of killing each player in prison that night. So if Players A, B, C, D are in prison, I will roll 4 10-sided dice to determine who is killed by the poison gas. The prison investigations would not take place during that night. The kit also includes prison security guard uniforms, so the sent member can safely get in and out of prison without repercussions.

Prisoner Capture Kit: One-shot. Any member may PM me to activate this during any night. This brainwashes the police chief and will have him prematurely capture 1, 2, or 3 players of your group's choice for the next day. If used, next day the town will decide who to pair up with the 1, 2, or 3 players. For example, if X and Y are captured prematurely Day 2, town first decides who to send to prison along with X, then who to send to prison along with Y.

Interrogation Confusion Kit: One-shot. Any member may PM me to activate this during any night. If activated, all prison interrogations that night will yield answers opposite to what are actually said. So a no-no pair yields yes-yes, yes-no yields no-yes, etc.

You also know many Safe Claims (Only safe in that these roles are either not in the game or very common. Whether they are safe in terms of being believable is up to your judgment):
Protown Prison Cop: Can only go to a prisoner’s house to investigate alignment
Protown Masons: Confirmed or unconfirmed alignments
Protown Miller: Knows miller status
Protown Vanilla Townie
Protown Post-Restricted Townie: any post restriction

You win with your Mafia group when group members constitute at least 50% of all players alive and it is impossible to not maintain the 50% threshold.

1 Mafia Traitor: detspeed/Abstract Actuary

You are the

Mafia Traitor

. The Mafia group knows the Traitor is in this game, but does not know that it is you. You know everything about your Mafia group, specified in the Mafia group PM below. During any night, you may be recruited back into the Mafia group. This would turn you into a Goon and you would have all the Mafia group abilities. Before being recruited, you will appear innocent to sane cop investigations. The night of recruiting and after recruiting, you will appear guilty to sane cop investigations, just like the other Goons.

You win with your Mafia group when group members constitute at least 50% of all players alive and it is impossible to not maintain the 50% threshold.

1 Protown Radar Chip Implanter: CounselWolf

You are a

Protown Radar Chip Implanter

. Each day you must PM me to implant a radar chip into a target’s body. Each night thereafter the chip will track where the target is going. Only the person with the radar receiver will have the results of the tracking each night, and you do not know who that is. If a day ends and you have no choice submitted, randomization occurs.

You win with the town when all Antitown forces are eliminated.

1 Protown Tracker: doctor no/English Argo

You are a

Protown Tracker

. Each night you will receive radar tracking signals from players that have radar chips implants in their bodies. You do not know who is implanting the radar chips. You also will not know who is being tracked until you actually receive the signals.

You win with the town when all Antitown forces are eliminated.

1 Protown Rogue FBI Agent: DrippingGoofball

You are a

Protown Rogue FBI Agent

. Once during game, anytime during any day, you may send 3 players’ names via PM to me and capture them to put them into a scenario similar to the “Yes-Yes” section of the Prisoner’s Dilemma box. Each captured player will be asked, “From 0-100%, what should the poisonous injection chance of death be for each of the other two players?” Then the three captured players will receive poisonous injections with the chances of death being the averages of the 6 given percentages. The three captured players will not know about the average-of-6-given-percentages, but they may be able to figure it out. I will perform the percentages privately on random.org. I will tell you afterward what percentages each player said. The day will temporarily stop and the identities of the captured players will be publicly announced when you use this ability.

You win with the town when all Antitown forces are eliminated.

1 Protown Prison Security Guard: Moratorium

You are a

Protown Prison Security Guard

. You stay in prison during all nights. Each night you may PM me to capture a target to both protect and roleblock that target in prison.

You win with the town when all Antitown forces are eliminated.

1 Protown Variable Bodyguard: Seraphim/zwetschenwasser

You are a

Protown Variable Bodyguard

. Your special abilities are conditional upon the number of pairs of players sent to prison:

If 3 pairs were sent to prison that day: That night, you may PM me a target to protect. Both the target and yourself are protected. You will also kill whoever attempts to kill the target or yourself.

If 2 pairs were sent to prison that day: That night, you may PM a target to protect. Only the target is protected. If the target is targetted by a killer, you will sacrifice yourself and kill that killer. If the target is targetted by multiple killers, both the target and yourself die and none of the killers is killed in return.

If 1 pair was sent to prison that day: That night, you may PM me a target to protect. Only the target is protected. If the target is targetted by a killer, you will sacrifice yourself. If the target is targetted by multiple killers, both the target and yourself die.

You win with the town when all Antitown forces are eliminated.

3 Protown Millers: SlySly, Lowell, Tuberkulos/killa seven

You are a

Protown Miller

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

@Mora: I admit there was a very small chance the game could have not ended a Mafia Win. But given the fact that an endgame filled with various PD scenarios is already hard to resolve, I considered the Mafia win % to be large enough to satisfy the win condition.

@complaints about Mafia being overpowered:
I think the setup is pretty balanced. One fundamental aspect about this PD game is that

most of the time, it is a bad thing to go to prison

. I even dropped the hint "The most frequent fate of prisoners was the desired result: death" in the opening flavor post.

So the more players are sent to prison each night, more bad things will happen to those prisoners. The town mainly lost this game because they thought it would be good to send in the max players to gain positive powers. That's where the Mafia powers comes in to balance that town strategy. Better strategies for the town would include either sending as many scummy players as possible or sending only 1 pair of players each day to gain powers.

Also there were some good town powers that didn't realize their full potentials such as freeko's avenger and doctor no/CW's tracker/implanter pair. This combined with Mafia strategizing and playing well to realize the full potential of their powers, it's no surprise the Mafia won.

[Machiavellian-Mafia]

@Mora: when I said "there could be exceptions", I was revealing enough to answer your question but give you too much. Actual game mechanics would not allow scum in prison to kill others in prison.
