We’re gonna play another game of Mafia, but this time it’ll be a little bit bigger.
FRC Mafia 3
Rules
- Follow the Chief Delphi forum rules.
- Be respectful to the hosts and your fellow players.
- Don’t be inactive. If you do not post meaningfully on any given day, you will be prodded. Receiving two prods will result in your removal from the game.
- Do not quote/screenshot private host messages. They’re private for a reason.
- Don’t throw the game. Always play with the intent of helping your faction win.
- No editing or deleting posts for any reason without express moderator permission.
- No posting after majority is reached or at night. I can’t lock the thread, so I’m relying on you all to just follow this rule and not post. Repeated or egregious failure to comply will result in your removal from the game.
- Do not discuss the game outside of the game. Anywhere. It’s not worth it.
- It’s a game - have fun!
Gameplay
- Days will last up to 36 hours.
- Nights will last roughly 12 hours.
- The Mafia have a factional night-kill. Any living member may carry out the kill on any given night.
- Night actions are performed by sending myself a message on the PM I send you with your role card, or in the Mafia chat if you are a member of the Mafia.
Eliminations
- To accuse someone, say “ /vote [player] ”.
- To rescind your vote, say “ /unvote ”.
- Making your votes obvious (bolded, on their own line, etc.) will make it less likely to be missed by me.
- Vote counts will be given whenever I am available to do so. You may request one by pinging me.
- Days 1 and 2 will have a deadline elimination - whoever has the most votes when the 36 hour timer expires will be eliminated.
- Days 3 and on will have a plurality elimination - if majority is reached on a player, the day will end immediately with their elimination, but if majority isn’t reached whoever has the most votes when the timer expires will be eliminated.
- If majority has been reached, stop posting immediately. Repeated or egregious failure to comply may result in a modkill.
After The Night
- You will be told what happened to you in your PM, and day will begin.
- If you are dead, do not post. I will try to start a PM chain for dead players to discuss the game, but may not have permission to do so on this forum.

F.A.Q.
-
What is Forum Mafia?
In case you missed the link at the top, here is a short guide from Mafia Universe describing the basics of Forum Mafia. In short, it is a variation of the party game Mafia (also known as Werewolf) that has been adapted to be played on forums. -
What does _______ mean?
There is a great glossary of various Mafia terms that may be used on the Mafia Universe Wiki . -
Are game days real days?
No. In-game days are entirely separate from real-world days. -
I’m still confused.
Feel free to ask me any and all questions you may have! -
I see the game is full - can I still play somehow?
Once the playerlist is full, I’d love to have some backups in case anybody drops out or is inactive. Backup players might be called upon at any time to fill the shoes of a player that needs to be replaced.
