TBT Mini Mafia
Welcome to TBT Mini Mafia, a variation of the regular mafia games. This variation has less players, but most of the roles will remain unchanged from I, II, and III. Mafia is a game of the informed minority versus the uninformed majority. To elaborate, the game is divided into two teams: the Town, and the Mafia. Mafia know who each other are, and can coordinate their actions privately. Town on the other hand don't know anything other than their own role. To compensate, there are many more Townies than Mafia.
At the beginning of the game, you are PM'd your role. The game is divided into repeating phases of Day and Night. Day will generally last 36-48 hours and revolve around voting for a player to be lynched. Each player (including Mafia) get one vote, and players must figure out who the Mafia are, and convince others that they are correct. At the end of the day, the person with the most votes is lynched, and their alignment and role are revealed.
Night is typically 24 hours long and is reserved for Mafia night kills and players with special abilities. Usually, players discuss the results of the lynch at night, and make plans for the next day. When night ends, everyone will be informed of who died during the night. The new day will begin, and discussions for the lynch begin anew.
Mafia is a game of logic, intuition, persuasiveness, reading ability, emotion, and will. In short, its a thinking man's game. There are many different ways to approach the game and every game is a very different experience. In addition, Mafia is not for the faint-hearted or overly emotional. While not occurring every game, sometimes people can get into very heated arguments with one another. People can get very emotional playing Mafia, as it is a high-intensity endeavour. That being said, playing Mafia is an excellent to develop thick skin, improve your patience, and make yourself a stronger person mentally.
Be warned - Mafia requires a time commitment. This generally depends on the player, but at minimum 20 minutes a day of solid effort is required. As part of the time commitment, Mafia requires a great deal of reading. Most people are actually quite poor at reading comprehension and playing Mafia is a great way to improve your reading ability, as well as your writing and ability to think and argue logically. While this is still a mini-mafia game, it certainly is not an excuse to slack off on reading.

Roles
These are all the possible roles in the game. I will not disclose how many of each role there are. There is no guarantee that all roles will be used. A player's exact role will be revealed upon their death.
Players will be randomly assigned roles when signups close and just before the game starts.
Town Roles
Townie
You are a regular member of the town, with no special abilities. Your goal is to use your vote and your voice to bring the members of the Mafia to justice. In other terms, you win when all the bad guys are gone.
Detective
You are a town detective. Once per Night phase, you may find out the role of a player by PMing the host a player's name.
Vigilante
You are a disgruntled townie who's taking the law into your own hands. Once per game during the Night, you may shoot a player. If your hit overlaps with a Mafia hit, your's will be cancelled. In the case of overlapping Vigilante hits, the person who sent their hit in first will go through. You will not know why your hit was cancelled, but will have that hit refunded. If you are roleblocked, your hit will also be refunded.
Paramedic
You are a town Paramedic. Every night you can protect the player of your choice (including yourself) from one hit. Multiple Medics can protect one player. As each Medic can only stop one hit, if the number of hits on the player exceeds the number of Medics, that player will still die. You cannot protect the same player two nights in a row. Both you and the person you protect will be informed if a hit was successfully prevented. The town will know nothing of the event.
Bartender
You are a famous townie known to work the bar at night. Recently, you came upon some rope, duct tape, and poison. Twice per game, you may choose to give someone an overdose of a drink. They will stay at your bar for the next day and night cycle. It will be publicly announced that they are missing, and cannot vote, talk, nor use a night ability for the day, but at the same time, cannot be lynched. The role of the target will be revealed to the bartender at the beginning of the following night. At that point, the bartender may choose to poison their drink and kill them, or let them free. KP will be affected, not publicly, however. If a bartender is roleblocked on the night after the overdose, it will fail. If a bartender is killed on the night after the overdose, the target will be set free.
Mafia Roles
Mafia Underling
You are just a minion. You have nothing except your voice and your vote to corrupt the town. You can deliver KP on behalf of the Mafia every night. Your ability as a group is to kill off players during the Night, including fellow Mafiosi.
Godfather
You are the Godfather, and have the ability to decide what role you will return as when checked by a Detective. This must be chosen on Day One, otherwise you will revert to the default Townie role. Once chosen, your role is fixed for the rest of the game.
Roleblocker
You are a Mafia Roleblocker. Every night you can PM the host with the name of a player. That player will be unable to perform any actions during the night. You cannot roleblock the same player two nights in a row.
Just to make it clear, all abilities are night abilities, and are to be carried out by PM'ing FireNinja1. You are free (but ill-advised) to publicly announce your intention, but you must PM FireNinja1 for it to be actioned. All abilities will also be resolved at the end of the night, so Detectives will not be told the result of their check until daybreak.
Mafia and Vigilantes will not be directly told if their actions were successful. They will have to read the Day Post and work out what happened from that.
The Mafia will designate a single member of its faction to deliver each kill.
Mafia Killing Power (KP) is # of mafia/2 rounded up (including roleblockers and godfathers). KP is calculated at the start of the Night phase.
Town win condition: Eradicate all Mafia.
Mafia win condition: Equal or outnumber Town
Rules:
Cheating:
Cheating includes (but is not limited to):
1. Posting after death. You may have one polite goodbye post, but it may not contain any potentially game-changing information.
2. Ruining the game by doing something like handing out your mafia's member list to the town.
3. Logging on to someone else's account to get their role or looking over someone's shoulder to get their role.
4. Posting screenshots of your inbox.
5. Posting or sharing any PM you receive from a host.
6. Getting yourself modkilled to help your team. Your non-majority-decided death may not be used as a bargaining chip.
7. Signing up more than once using smurf accounts.
8. Offering favours/items/bells outside of the game for a ingame information.
9. Sharing accounts with other players.
10. Posting a false role PM phrased as if you received it from the host. You can still fake roleclaim, but you cannot make it look like you are posting a PM you received from the host.
Screenshots of ANY KIND will result in a modkill and a 5 game ban.
Cheating is not tolerated here as it ruins the game for everyone. The mods and admins here CAN take action.
Replacements
This game uses replacements. Replacements will be made in the game until the end of Night 2. If a player is modkilled during the designated time, then they will be replaced by a player on the replacement list.
Time Cycle:
This game will follow a 48 hour day and 24 hour night cycle. In case I am not able to post around deadline, any votes after the 48 hour mark will not count and the game will be put on halt until the night post is up. Currently the deadline is 11:00 (4:00 AM) EST, but that is subject to change. Actions/votes will be accepted up to and including the posted time, but not after.
Posting:
Mod Font:This is the mod colour. It is reserved for the host. Please do not use it.
Question Font:
This is the question colour. Use it to ask the host questions about the rules in public. You can also PM either one of the hosts, or, in the case of mafia, in the mafia chat.
Activity:
You must post in this thread three times per day/night cycle and vote every day while you are alive. If you fail to do so, you will be modkilled.
Spam:
Spam is not tolerated, nor is any off-topic material. This also means you should condense your posts when possible. 15 one-liners in 30 minutes is unacceptable.
Editing:
Editing is not allowed for any reason. Editing will result in a warning. After that, you will be modkilled. While I ask for everybody to post as concisely as possible, post again if you have to edit anything. The board software automatically merges the posts anyway.
Inappropriate posts:
Mafia games can get heated and emotional. Please keep it civil and remember that what happens in Mafia stays in Mafia. Don't let things spill over to the rest of the forum, it's just a game. If you are unhappy with a player's posts, PM me first. Only if you are dissatisfied with the outcome should you involve the TBT staff.
Play to win.
That said, you should try your best to help your team win while you are alive and in the game. However, this does not mean that you should try to win by being a jerk to the other players so they all want to quit playing.
This also means that you cannot leave the game without a good reason. These situations will be dealt with on a case by case basis. PM your host if you need to leave the game.
You have been warned.
Banlist:
Continuing with this game, there will be an officially enforced banlist. If you are modkilled for any reason, you will be subject to a minimum one game ban. The ban length will depend on the reason you were modkilled. Real life problems that pop up that require you to leave the game will be punished minimally. Things like getting yourself modkilled on purpose to use your non-majority decided lynch as a bargaining chip will earn you a lengthy ban. (May be waived depending on interest from community)

Credits:
Thanks to everyone who played TBT Mafia I and took it somewhat seriously.
Thanks to TL Mafia whose opening post I have shamelessly stolen.
Thanks to KarlaKGB/Tom and Kayla for allowing me to shamelessly steal this too!
If you have not read all the rules, go back and do so. I will not compensate for ignorance!
PM FireNinja1 all of the night actions, due to the large mailbox (brag). The game will not start for awhile.
