Romeing The Piazza

You can check out this example of what happens.

This is taken from the newbie guide of the mafiascum wiki;
In its simplest form, Mafia consists of two sides: the Mafia, and the Town. The Mafia's goal is to kill the innocents, while the Town's goal is to kill the Mafia.

At the beginning of the game, the Moderator will secretly send everyone their role. The Mafia will know each other, while (in the basic game) everyone else will only know their own role.

The game has two phases. Usually the first is Night. During Night, the Town can not communicate, but the Mafia can discuss and choose someone to murder. After the Moderator has received the name of the victim, the Moderator reveals the dead player, and Day begins.

During Day, the Town must choose someone to Lynch; they are trying to eliminate the Mafia, but the Mafia can lead them astray by casting suspicion elsewhere. Generally, players will vote for someone they think is Mafia (the Mafia will vote so that they seem to be doing this as well, and might even vote for each other to confuse the Town); when a player gets a majority of the votes, they are lynched. Their role is revealed by the Moderator, and it is once again Night.

The game alternates between Night and Day until either the Mafia are eliminated, or the Mafia have killed everyone else.

Although we have started with the day phase and not the night phase, to maybe put it in simpler terms:

  • The mafia know who else is in the mafia and may only communicate between each other during the night period.
  • The townies know they are townies, but do not know what role anyone else is.
  • The only way townies can get rid of a mafia member is during the day period when they come together and vote to lynch.
  • Both townies and mafia members are allowed to vote in the day period though.
  • During the day phase, the mafia members want to seem like townies so they can eliminate all the other mafia members.
  • Whilst the mafia members want to seem like townies so they can eliminate the townies in both the night and day periods.

It's the townies against the mafia. The townies have to get rid of the mafia member(s) to win whilst the mafia member(s) have eliminate the townies and take over the town to win. The townies are working together to eliminate the mafia member(s) and vice versa.

It's like who do you trust? For example, do you trust Ben who says he is a townie? He could be lying and just saying that to fool you to keep himself safe and then pick you off one by one overnigt? Or he could be telling you the truth in order to help you work out who are the real mafia members.
 
As Rome defends into darkness the townies are showing their rule after lynching the mafia member Covvy, after a public vote saw him locked up by the Polizia. The townies job is now simple, work out the final mafia member and then vote him into prison whilst the sole
mafia member must now look to kill all the remaining townies.

The game now moves into the day phase and could any player with night roles please PM me with what they would like to do. The voting may begin again when the sun has risen. If you are unsure if you have a night role please check your PM's and re read the descripition of your role.

Liking the Godfather reference there. I joined in last time this was on the forum so next round I'll put my name forward. Save me a spot incase I miss the sign-up deadline.
 
Meh, I LOVE it! Brilliant idea Ollie, Sign me up (if possible!)

I will keep you in mind for the next one, which could be sooner rather than later as I don't think a lot of people know what's going on :p
 
As the sun rises over a nervous Rome, a new murder has come to light, the best city doctor available Highlander999 has become the next victim to be killed off by the mafia. They have paid revenge after losing one of their own after the town vote.

It is now that time again when the remaining members come together to vote off who they think is the mafia member.
