I am if I say I am. If I'm not, then I won't say so. Unless sometimes I forget to say I am, if I'm not. Or, if I don't say I am, but I don't say that.

Don't fight over a backpack on the first day, if you want to avoid getting stabbed.

Welcome to the 77th Hunger Games!

There are Regular Districts: 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 (Town) and Career Distrcits: 1, 2, 4 (Mafia) members. Townsfolk are going to try to eliminate the Mafia with extreme prejudice before the Mafia eliminates them.

The game ends when one of the following criteria is met:

• No mafia remain and the District 3 player is still alive.
• If no mafia remain and the District 3 player is dead then the remaining town will vote to determine surviving player, or it goes to RPS or RNG, or it can be "played out" until two town remains and it goes to RPS.
• The mafia outnumber the town players. The surviving mafia will be determined by the vote of the mafia or RPS.

The game will start today, Wednesday July 7. Lynching will be allowed on the first day. Mafia can nightkill the first night. The pyscho-killer can start killing Friday evening.

The Mafia members are going to privately tell me who they would like to eliminate during the night. I will reveal to everyone what happened the next morning with some delightful storytelling.

During the day, everybody (townsfolk and Mafia) will publicly vote for a person to eliminate; I will eliminate the person with the most votes at the end of the day and reveal what their role was.

In addition to regular townsfolk and members of the Mafia, there are also the town aligned Doctor, Cop, Martyr, Ranger, and District 13 Spy . The Doctor can choose someone to “save” during the night; if they choose the same person the Mafia/Psychokiller chose, then that player will escape elimination by the Mafia that night; the doctor's save ability works regardless of how many people tried to kill the target at the same time. The Cop can “investigate” players during the day. The Martyr can switch places with someone who is dying (take the bullet/arrow/axe/knife/etc for them instead); the martyr ability is applied before a doctor save; the martyr ability may be used for lynch or nightkill. The ranger may also also kill players during the night beginning with the third night; The District 13 Spy can save all of the players from the arena after the mafia has been eliminated.

The Mafia members know who each other are, but no one knows anyone else’s role except me. Each player has received a PM from me with their District assignment and any special instructions.

There are different win criteria for each player. There can be multiple winners this round, including those who died.

District 1 - Career District (Mafia) - wins if survives
District 2 - Career District (Mafia) - wins if survives
District 3 - Regular District (Town/District 13 Spy) - wins if survives; can have District 13 rescues the townies after mafia eliminated
District 4 - Career District (Mafia) - wins if survives
District 5 - Regular District (Town) - wins if survives game or survives to final five
District 6 - Regular District (Town/Martyr) - wins if survives or uses martyr ability on a regular district player
District 7 - Regular District (Town) - wins if survives
District 8 - Regular District (Town) - wins if survives or get nightkilled by career district
District 9 - Regular District (Town/Doc) - wins if survives or make a rescue
District 10 - Regular District (Town/Cop) - wins if all career district players are eliminated
District 11 - Regular District (Town) - wins if survives or get nightkilled by career district
District 12 - Regular District (Town/Ranger) - wins if survives or nightkills a career district


Standard EB-mafia game rules apply which means PMing is allowed! However, I-the-all-powerful-PANEM-game-master have cameras and microphones everywhere so I must be be copied on all PMs. It makes for better television!

Please keep all trash talk in the thread and don’t take things too seriously!

You may use this thread to vote and post about the game. Anyone (playing or not playing, eliminated or not) can use this thread to speculate, discuss, accuse, or otherwise participate in the game; just please make sure to follow regular EB forum guidelines.

To vote on a person to eliminate, mention me @RBHeadge PE and tell me specifically that 1) you are voting and 2) the username of the person you are voting to eliminate.


Please submit your votes by 9:00 PM EST/8:00 PM Central/7:00 PM Mountain/6:00 PM Pacific Time/Whatever Roar and Bly-time ; I will count votes after that time as being for the next day.


Your vote only counts if you are playing and not yet eliminated. If there is a tie for most votes, I will pick one of the voted users at random and/or require the tied players to send me 10 rounds of 'rock, paper, scissors'. If there are no votes, I will pick a person at random (i.e. role will not matter) to eliminate; suffice it to say it’s in both groups’ best interest to vote for at least one person.

Finally, you are not allowed to reveal your role, privately or publicly, after you have been eliminated. You may not post screengrabs of private messages in this thread.

For reference, the 12 players in this round are:

Wait. You can read clocks when you’re sloshed? I judge my consumption by the angle of the sun. If it’s raining, I’m allowed to drink whenever.

It rained a lot yesterday. And I was by the water.

No. This is a kind of a first. The last two rounds were a 50:50 T:M split and no-body knew each other. The rules were sort of broken, but we settled into a Nash equilibrium fast.


I've been tinkering with this concept for a few months. Ever since @DuranDuran PE suggested it a a gif-able theme for a round I was going to mod. I knew then that I wanted to do something with a LOT of roles and win conditions to make things fresh.

At the heart of this round, it's still a standard round of mafia. 12 players: 9T, 3M. 1 cop, 1 doc. The add-ons are the PK (which we've played before), and the martyr. The latter shouldn't be too destabilizing as it would still result in a reduction in numbers for the town if used properly.

The extra win conditions could be ignored by most players if they so choose. I added them for flavor and to potentially encourage different behavior than would normally be played. Most of us have settled into the town vs. mafia, protect the doc mentality. But the win conditions may make people change their strategy for something more or less self-serving.

The biggest change is the addition of the "District 13 spy" role, whose presence in the game effects whether the townies have to kill each other after taking out the mafia.

 

[JayKay PE]

Okay. I screenshot the directions and I kinda re-read. Best win scenario: save district 3 (who is also the district 13 spy) and kill all the mafia, which will then save everyone else.

@RBHeadge PE you mention a psycho killer? Is that the same as mafia or is it a role I missed? Sorry. I never watched/read hunger games so I don’t know how applicable it is.

 

[JayKay PE]

Just to clarify:
Multiple players can WIN this round, even with constradicotry win conditions. Players can still die and WIN, and at the same time players can survive and WIN.

Some players (districts) have political agendas that they want to promote and win by promoting those agendas. I.e. getting nightkilled and inciting a rebellion against PANEM.

Other players just want to see their enemies die first.

And some players just want to live.

This victory criteria for each player is in the main post, and occasionally in the PM for that role.

Following up on the multiple wins, because again, I’m finally trying to read and dissect, will you “announce” to the thread if a win criteria is reached? Like if district 12 (the ranger) kills a mafia during the night, will it be announced he next morning?

 

[RBHeadge PE]

ranger=psychokiller
they're from District 12

I edited and made the note in the opening post.
