June Gloom POPCORN Mafia: The Game

In Southern California, there is a weather phenomenon that happens around this time of year. The skies are cloudy all morning, maybe a little bit of the afternoon, and then the sun breaks out. Sounds about like how the CD Mafia community is on hearing that the next official game, M10won’t be until August.

Well… Here’s the sun!

June Gloom Popcorn Mafia

is now playing!

Rules

  1. Follow the Chief Delphi forum rules.
  2. Be respectful to the hosts and your fellow players.
  3. Don’t be inactive . If you do not post meaningfully in any given phase, you will be prodded. Receiving two prods or failing to respond to a prod within 12 hours will result in your removal from the game. This will be a special point of emphasis this game.
  4. Do not quote/screenshot private host messages. They’re private for a reason.
  5. Don’t throw the game. Always play with the intent of helping your faction win.
  6. No editing or deleting posts for any reason without express moderator permission.
  7. 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.
  8. Do not discuss the game outside of the game. Anywhere. It’s not worth it.
  9. It’s a game - have fun!

Gameplay

  • This game is played without day and night cycles.
  • Before the game starts, the Mafia must elect one Town player to be the gun-bearer .
  • That player has 24 hours to shoot another player. Discussion will take place during this time.
  • If they do not shoot another player within these 24 hours the gun-bearer will die and the gun will go back to the Mafia. The Mafia will then be given 12 hours to choose a new gun-bearer . Discussion will still take place during this time.
  • The gun-bearer is always announced and confirmed as a member of the Town.
  • The Mafia wins when the number of living Mafia members equal or exceed the number of living townies.
  • The Town wins when all Mafia players are dead.
  • The Mafia will talk through a PM chain I create. They may talk at any time.

Eliminations

  • There is no voting in this game. The gun-bearer takes the place of an elimination.
  • The gun-bearer must shoot publicly in the game thread by saying /shoot [player] , bolded and on its own line. You should also ping me by typing @ EricH in the same post.
  • If the gun-bearer hits a member of the Mafia, they keep the gun, a new 24-hour phase begins, and they may shoot again.
  • If the gun-bearer hits a member of the Town, the gun-bearer dies, a new 24-hour phase begins, and the targeted townie becomes the new gun-bearer .
  • If a player has been shot, stop posting until I can end that phase and start the next one.

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 2 .
  • This is very different from the previous two games!
    Indeed! Popcorn Mafia is a fun and fast variant that will allow us to sneak a couple runs in before M10.
  • I’m still confused.
    Feel free to ask me any and all questions you may have!

Please hold off on posting until I say something as the role PMs are going out shortly. If you are Town, you will not get a PM–after I announce the PMs are out you can confirm.

No role yet though.

Sounds like something a Mafia who got a PM would say…

But I haven’t finished sending the PMs yet.

Oh boy I’m exited!!!

I think you mean excited…

PMs are out to all Mafia. Townies, sorry, no PMs for you–so if you DIDN’T get a PM assume that you are town, and play accordingly.

While the Mafia discusses who gets the gun, can I get everybody to /confirm that they are playing, please?

That too :rofl:

All I know is I’ve now joined the game but will there be a separate game thread or nah?

This is it

Welcome! You’ve joined a somewhat unique game format, so bear with us

Unfortunately I forgot to tag the last thread as “Signup”. So this one gets the Spaceballs: The Movie treatment instead.

Yes, this is in fact the game.

Oooh I love spaceballs! Is that the theme?

*say

As soon as the Mafia choose the Gun-Bearer. They have their PMs, they have their chat, I’m going to ask that they get me something in the next 12 hours or so.
