MafiaI was reading through Wikipedia and saw a related article pertaining to this game and thought that it would be fun to play on a forum.
The game needs at least six people, and I think that it should have a limit of sixteen players. If the player count comes to an odd number, the last user to sign up will be booted from the current game.
How to play:This is my interpretation of the game, if people actually play I will create a new game that has more of the things that people suggest.There are two opposing teams in which players are randomly assigned, the Mafia and the Townspeople. If you don't get on a team that you want, then there probably will be another game eventually.
When the game has officially started, I will PM you what team you are assigned to, no complaints or bad attitudes. If you are on the Mafia, I will PM you the list of Mafia members that you will be working with. Townspeople are in the dark on who their teammates are. If you aren't in the Mafia, don't PM me.
The meat of the game is actually pretty simple, but can take some interesting keen brown townytical skills for both teams.
Once the game has started, the gameplays' framework stems off of two states that the game is always in, the Daytime or the Nighttime.
To balance out the teams, the Mafia userbase will be much smaller than that of the Townspeople's.
Nighttime: The time when the Mafia members operate. This is in secret and must not be shared with the townspeople due to the fact that the mafia members will get executed.
Every Mafia member PMs me a username who is on the Townspeoples' team to assassinate. If more than half of the members agree to assassinate one townsperson, it will be done. In the daytime, I will post the dead Townsperson. If you are assassinated, then too bad. You're out of the game.
Townspeople may not participate in this process.
Once I have received all the votes from the Mafia members, and a Townsperson has been slaughtered, then the Nighttime is officially over.
Daytime: This is where the townspeople shine, yet they can initiate their own doom if they aren't careful.
When the Daytime is initiated, I will post in the thread that it has started. After I post, people will vote on a person to execute whom they are suspicious of being in the Mafia. A reason is always good. Note that you
post in the thread your debate and not in PM. The Mafia also has a role in this, considering that they try to obfuscate the decisions to kill the Townspeople's own teammates.
Feel free to post in the daytime to try to come to a decision. If nobody can agree, I will pick the most talked about user and they will be executed, so try to work as a team and not just stuffpost.
Other Comments:To lose, either side has to have no more players left, in which I will announce the winning team.
In game, feel free to privately contact other members no matter what team you are on to come to a smart decision. Strategy is the key.
Note how this is not the gameplay thread, this is just the initialization topic to plan out the time schedule for the Night and Daytimes for all players.

More information:Wikipedia Article Original Game SiteLastly, I would ask you to please not spoil the game and tell others what side people are on, that's no fun. If you want to quit, then just PM me and I will get you executed in the Daytime. I would also ask you to keep random posts to a minimum in the game playing thread.
This includes non-players. Also, no made up crap, its a game, play by the rules.
If this thread dies and no one appears to want to play, then I count this as a failed attempt. At least I tried ;)
If you don't understand a concept or would like to add, just post and I will be sure answer. TL;DR'ers get out. Thanks for your time!
