This is a game I'm playing on different forum, but i thought some of you might enjoy it as well. here are the rules (maybe if this is successful, the next one will be beatles related) :


"There are millions of different roles that can be added in a more complicated game with a huge userbase. For this first game, since I don't even know if anyone will reply to this, we will just have a standard play style.

The game is based upon two sides: The Mafia and the Townspeople. The mafia's main goal is too kill all the townspeople, while on the flipside the townspeople are trying to get rid of all the mafia. Simple eh? Not really. At the beginning of the game after everyone is signed up, I'll randomly pick two mafia members and tell them that they are the mafia via PM. If you don't get a PM, you aren't the mafia, don't cry about it, maybe you'll get another chance. The mafia members will know each other, but nowone else is to know who they are, so if you are the mafia, do not let on. I'll also PM a detective, who is on the side of the townspeople. He should not let anyone know who he is OUTSIDE OF THE THREAD, by all means reveal yourself in thread, but PMing info you receive is cheating and ruins the game. However, if the detective reveals himself/herself expect to be dead the next turn.

The game is conducted in two phases(These are not necessarily at any time period, the phase changes when I post saying to start the corresponding actions).

The first phase is Night, during this time the mafia will PM me with the name of who they want to kill and the method of killing in as little or much detail as they wish and I'll elaborate on it. At the same time the detective is to PM me with the name of someone he/she wants to investigate. I will then reply to the PMs with confirmation for the mafia and a message to the detective saying whether or not the person they asked about is innocent or guilty of being a mafia member.

The next phase is Day. During the day is when I tell all the townspeople how and who were killed the previous night. Then it is up to you as the townspeople to use your skills of deduction to vote on who you think should be executed and named as mafia. Each alive townsperson gets one vote(if you're dead you can have input but your vote doesn't count, and don't spam just cuz you got whacked, you probably deserved it) and the votes are tallied by me. At the end when everyone has voted or a max of a day(real-time) has passed I will announce the person with the most votes and they will be executed. I will not tell you whether or not you were right about that person, but they are free to(however if you were mafia I don't suggest it). At the end when all mafia or all townspeople are dead I will then reveal the mafia and the final results.

Keep in mind this is a game of deduction and trickery. Both groups should use their reasoning to decide systematically by following whatever clues they can deduce who is the right person to be executed, or in the mafia's case who is the perfect person to kill without being blamed.

Some of you may have played this game before, if not try it, it's fun. For the sake of fairness I will not be a player on either side. If you need more information just PM me and I can tell you more details or suggestions.

Lastly, if you are interested reply to this post stating you're in, "me me", or whatever other giddy childish response you can think of. Game will start when enough people have joined(assuming anyone responds to this at all)."

mmmmm too complicated

no its not, its like a forum wide "whodunit" game
