What’s this? There are cards… everywhere… why are there so many cards? Who would do such a thing?

From underneath the cards three aptly named teams emerge. One calls themselves TEAM A. The largest team, TEAM A has plans to win this game through force of numbers. However, just as they begin to convene in the center of the arena, a tornado comes from the sky and blasts them all in different directions, as well as whipping up cards between them all. Will they be able to find each other successfully?

TEAM B is next to rise. They have gathered for themselves a deck of their own, more sinister cards. Luckily for them, no tornado arrives.

TEAM C, not to be outdone, gathers a deck of their own and appears on the edge of the arena.

TEAM A is the village in this game, TEAM B and TEAM C are both mafias.

Just before you start the fight, a second tornado arrives. This one creates a deck in the very center of the arena. You all see that this deck contains the following cards:

Mayor x10
Tracker x8
Bodyguard x8
Superpower Helper Card x7
Inspection x4
Hook x4
Draw Additional Card Next Turn x4
Safeguard x2
Doubler x1
Make Mafia Draw One Less Card Next Turn x1
Draw next turn’s cards early x1
Blank x15

It occurs to all of you that this deck will be the deck of TEAM A! But what the hell is a superpower helper card? And who should draw from this deck? Clearly, the best way to determine who should draw from this deck is to employ the powers of democracy and vote for who gets to do it! But that can wait for tomorrow morning.

Night 0 begins when all role PMs are out. Please don’t talk too much until I have all role PMs out.

Role PMs are being sent out by me and Celever. If you have questions about your role, you should probably ask me.

Rules:

The basic format of the game is 1 village vs 2 mafias. The village will be called TEAM A, and the two mafias will be called TEAM B and TEAM C.

Each mafia team has a deck of cards. At the beginning of the day, the faction leader draws 8 of these cards and distributes them among his team. Each card contains a particular action, such as an inspection or a hook. Once given a card, the members of his team use these cards to carry out those actions. Each person can only use one card per night, and at the end of the night, all cards are returned to the deck and the deck is shuffled.

The village also has a deck. At the beginning of each day, everyone votes on who should be the village leader. The voted village leader then picks 10 cards from the village deck and distributes at most 8 of them to the villagers he trusts with them. Once given a card, you can do whatever you want with them - that is, if you are given a card from the village deck that contains, say, an inspection power, and you are mafia, you can use that inspection on whoever you want. As above, each user only gets to use one card per night, and at the end of the night all cards are returned to the deck and the deck is shuffled.

In addition to giving out cards, the village leader also chooses who is lynched in the daytime.

In addition to the rules above, each user has his or her own personal night action. Many personal night actions affect cards and decks.


1) Living players can talk. Dead players can’t. Exceptions are as follows: You may talk strategy with teammates when you are dead if you waive your right to see what is going on in the game and pass on no new information. Also, you may talk about anything with teammates listed in your role PM after death, so long as that information was given to you before you died.

2) Every user has a role PM. You may not copy and paste role PMs on the first night of the game, Night 0. After Night 0 is over, you may copy and paste your role PMs. You can fake role PMs, obviously.

3) Do not screenshot anything related to this game.

4) You may paste logs of conversations had on IRC, including logs with the hosts. You can also fake a log, including logs with the hosts.

5) Each day will have a deadline of 48 hours. You may vote to elect a village leader during the day by posting "vote USER" in bold, or "No lynch" if you don't want to vote for anyone, and if you change your vote, you MUST edit the bolded text out of the old post if you post with a new vote. If majority is ever reached, that user will become village leader regardless of whether I am there to update.

6) If there is a tie in the vote, the cards will be evenly drawn by each winner of the vote. That is, if askaninjask and Altair tie in the vote, askaninjask will draw 5 cards and only be able to pass out 4 of them, and Altair will do the same.

7) For the most part, priorities are as they usually are in other games. If two actions with the same priority (eg from the same card) occur, they will both be successful, barring other circumstances. I can answer some questions you may have about priority.

8) There are no items in this game (other than cards). Don’t claim thief or you will be laughed at.

9) If the rules and your role PM clash in any way, your role PM takes precedence.

10) If you are godkilled in the middle of the day, all votes against you immediately turn to No Lynch votes.

11) Don’t be an idiot. This is completely subjective and I reserve the right to do whatever I need to punish idiocy (but I will take advantage of this right as rarely as possible).

Clearly, I am the best man to be dealing cards. In the interest of total fairness, I'll even allow one person from each mafia team to come forward and cut the deck.

After an uneventful night, you realize that nobody has been murdered yet. You have a feeling that, by the end of this day, that will change.

It is now Day 1 - Voting Phase.

I would like to reiterate the sequence of events that will happen today.

STEP 1) Everyone votes on who should be TEAM A leader.

STEP 2) The user who has been voted TEAM A leader draws 10 _randomly chosen_ cards from the TEAM A deck. At this time both mafia teams also draw their own cards from their own decks.

STEP 3) The voted TEAM A leader decides who will be lynched in the daytime.

STEP 4) The TEAM A leader hands out a maximum of 8 of these cards to the people he feels are trustworthy. The mafia leaders also hand out some of the cards that they have just drawn to their team.

STEP 5) The cycle becomes night, and everyone who has a card can use the action described on the card they’ve received.

Alright, hopefully this clears up some confusion. Sorry if the rules in the OP and signup post were not clear enough.

Voting Phase will last 48 hours or until majority is hit as determined by me. Results are being sent out.
 
Vote Agape for TEAM A leader

Give claims only after I've been picked. If you want to be the leader, post in the thread saying why. Any reason will possibly do because I gave none. Don't claim to me before I get picked.
 
Well it is early days, so I think everyone is going to be randomly voting. I would go for someone relatively experienced but then a gain, from Mafias I have seen previously, usually the more experienced people end up Mafia so I am not voting yet until I have seen interesting posts from other people -
