Star Wars Rebels Mafia

[Logic]

Game Information:

- This game is based on the Star Wars: Rebels TV show. The mafia are the protagonists of the show and the town are Imperial antagonists that appear within.

- There will be no cults, no jesters, no roles which can influence voting / the lynch, no false alignment reveals. No bastard mechanics.

- 48 hour day, 24 hour night. Phase change at 10 AM PDT.

- There is night chat, but I will implement brief no-posting times around the deadlines.

Rules

1. Role PMs:
Don't talk about the role PM, except that you may say what role and alignment you are, any powers you may have.

Do not quote your role PM, do not screenshot your role PM. Don't talk about what time you got the role PM. Don't challenge people to prove their town status by describing the layout or formatting of the role PM. Do not reference it, explicitly or in a way that bends around the spirit of "don't discuss your Role PM." Do not speculate what is in someone's Role PM, do not refer to any wording or pictures in your Role PM, I'd prefer if you refrain from saying "Role PM" altogether. That's not what this game is about.

2. Outside communication:
Don't talk about this game outside the game thread or mafia chat.

Do not talk about this game with spectators or other players, publicly or privately, outside of this game thread. Unless the game host has given you a specific communication channel to use, private communications are not allowed in this game.

Also, do not talk about other ongoing games in this thread.

3. Voting
Vote: Zapp Brannigan

During the Day phase, you must place a player name in red and in bold. Hiding your vote in a spoiler, or some other weird thing, is a good idea if you like not having your vote count. There is no mechanic for "hammering" a majority lynch before the deadline, and there won't be locked votes in must-lynch.

4. Activity
Post and vote at least a few times each Day phase.

If you go an entire day phase (48 hours) without any game-relevant posts [e.g. a single post saying "sorry I'm out all day" does not count], I will replace or modkill you, depending on sub availability. If there's a potential issue with your schedule, let me know and we can work it out.

There is no activity requirement for night.

5. Phase lengths
48 hour days, 24 hour nights
Phases end at 10 AM United States Pacific time. I believe this is 5 PM GMT.

6. Tied votes
First past the post.

If there is a tie, the first wagon to get to that total will be lynched. For example:

Bob has 4 votes.
Fred has 3 votes.
Someone changes to Fred, putting him at 4 votes.
If Bob is still at 4 votes, Bob is lynched.

I use this method because it avoids random chance having a significant influence on the game's outcome, and also avoids delaying the game or being overly complex.

7. Flavor gaming
I'll discourage it, but it's not explicitly disallowed. It will, however, be useless.

8. Victory
Town wins when both mafia have been eliminated. Mafia wins when they reach parity with town, or parity is mechanically unavoidable.

9. Sample Role PM

Player, you are Grand Moff Tarkin.

You are Vanilla Empire.

You win when the Rebels are eliminated.

Good luck, have fun, read the rules, PM me with any questions.

10. Anything else
If you have a question about anything else, ask me before the game, or PRIVATELY during the game. I will not answer or address questions asked publicly if asked during the game. Any complaints/critiques about the game setup during the game may be directed privately. After the game, you may complain or critique about setup publicly if you desire, but please keep such concerns constructive.

[BishFish]

I'd like to play!

[Requilac]

I haven't watched an episode of this show, but Star Wars isn't exactly the strangest subject to me either, so please count me in.

[Elenna]

I'm in

Also, can you put something in both red and bold?

test 1

test 2

EDIT: Apparently you can. Huh. For some reason I was under the impression those didn't stack.

EDIT 2: Also, maybe you should emphasize that autolynch rules are stricter than typical GiTP rules?

[rakkoon]

In as Picard or Q, I'll pick later.

[Elenna]

In as Picard or Q, I'll pick later.

Perhaps I should be in as Samantha Carter.

[Ramsus]

That's a shame, it was quite an enjoyable show.

In.

[kgato503]

I'm in! I haven't watched this show, but I do enjoy the movies.

[Requilac]

That's a shame, it was quite an enjoyable show.

I mean, I haven't really watched a cartoon in years, so I have literally no idea what I am missing out on. I have heard of Rebels before, but never actually watched a full episode. That being said I have watched all of the main Star Wars movies, so I should have all the information I need.

[AvatarVecna]

Sure, why not. In.

[Logic]

I'm really hoping for at least two more.

[Ramsus]

You can always PM some people, see if they're interested.

[Felandria]

K.

In.

Unforseen events have me postponing game start until later today. Please forgive me, and remain understanding.

[Ramsus]

*remains seated as requested*

[Logic]

At least one of you needs to clear some inbox space.

EDIT: If you have not received a PM from me, please PM me after you have some inbox space. I'll delay only anther 12 hours at most, and then the game begins.

[Logic]

The game has now officially begun

Day 1 Ends 10 AM PDT

[Ramsus]

Let's find those rebel scum! Eh..... *suspicious look* Kgato503?

[Elenna]

*spins in circle* *points at Requilac* You are clearly one of those rebels! The power of RNG has told me so!

[kgato503]

Return fire! Ramsus

Seriously, it is either this or RNG.

[AvatarVecna]

*spins in circle* *points at Requilac* You are clearly one of those rebels! The power of RNG has told me so!

*checks with RNGesus*

Yup, that checks out. Requilac.

[Requilac]

There are rebels in our midst. And there is also a Rakoon among us. What do you think you are doing snooping around in our trash (being a raccoon and all)? What are you so intent on finding out about the empire Rakoon? You should have all the information you need from your superiors, or the ones granted to us by legal means. I know a traitor when I see one... well not really, but what other information am I supposed to use for my vote.

[Felandria]

Maybe the Rakoon is just hungry and not searching for info?

[rakkoon]

The Raccoon federation of planets have produced some of the finest leaders of the Empire, Requilac. As a true soldier you should know this. Perhaps some extra lessons from Elanna are in order?

[Requilac]

Maybe the Rakoon is just hungry and not searching for info?

He is a professional agent of the empire, he should really be finding more appropriate ways to search for food.

Indeed they have, but the other embassadors didn’t dig through the trash either. Just you.

[rakkoon]

I do believe that your rank is not high enough to even know about what I was doing in that thrash. Perhaps one day I will enlighten you. Now just do your job and concentrate on the task at hand.

[Requilac]

What is there to say I am not of a high enough rank? To my knowledge, we were equals and there was no evidence against that matter.

And I am concentrating on the task at hand; finding out who the rebels are. Or at least now it is. Originally my purpose was to help the other architects design that fancy space station, but they relocated me because I was too “negative”. Bah, that exhaust port is a horrible attachment and a blaring weakness, but no somehow it’s “no big deal” to the engineers. I’ve got a bad feeling about this.

Edit: This is an investigation Rakoon, we have to investigate. We are all doing this under the commands of the Empire. Do you have any sort of special credential which verifies that you are free from being searched? Some secret imperial information should be safeguarded of course, but I don’t see Vader or Tarkin
putting a confidential stamp on your dumpster diving. What relevant papers do you have on this matter?

_______

At this point I am just posturing and entertaining myself, but if any of you think you can suss significant info out of this, please do so.

[rakkoon]

That would be LORD Vader, have some respect. My contacts have given me information and I intend to act on it. None of you here are beyond suspicion and only the true agents of the Empire will get through these proceeding alive and sane.

Not claiming anything, just keeping myself busy. Being pompous and arrogant is fun :)

[Requilac]

Switching my vote to Ramsus for no other reason than the sake of my own survival. If anyone else wants to keep me alive for whatever reason, please also do so. Sorry Ramsus, you were chosen randomly.

What proof do you have of this claim that your dumpster diving excursions are protected from investigation by Lord Vader?
