The game of Mafia is based on deception and knowledge. It is a battle of an uninformed majority (Town and/or Neutrals) versus an informed minority (Mafia). Roles are handed out at the start of the game, which will have alignments on whether they can do something. There are 2 phases, day and night, and at any point can write their last will or death note. All phases equal a Day, which lasts some time (24 hrs or 12 hrs). At day, all town members (i.e. all players) will discuss who to lynch, as well as whisper (?). They will vote on a person, and the votee will state their defense on why the voters should abstain or vote innocent. If more than half of the players vote guilty or abstain, they will be lynched and their role will be revealed to all players. At night, all players will be able to do their night action. The Mafia will also be able to privately talk at night. Whoever is murdered will be announced to all players in the morning. Their role and last will is revealed.

Roles (As of current, simple):

TOWN

Citizen - Votes on a person each day to lynch.

Sheriff - Investigate a player each night to see their faction.

Doctor - Heal someone each night, saving them from death.

Escort - Roleblock someone each night, preventing them from using their night action.

Vigilante - Kill a person at night. You only have 3 shots, and will commit suicide if you killed another Townie.

MAFIA

Godfather - Command the Mafia at night, and will kill if no Mafioso is present. Your are also night immune (unable to be killed at night) and detection immune (unable to be detected as Mafia to the Sheriff).

Mafioso - Kill someone each night under the command of the Godfather. If the Godfather has died, you will become that of the new Godfather.

Consort - Roleblock someone each night, preventing them from using their night action, will upgrade to Mafioso if Mafia has no killing roles.

Neutral

Survivor - At night choose to use a bulletproof vest, protecting you from death, but only 4 of these. You need to live to see the end of the game, and win with anyone.

Executioner - Receive a target, and you must lynch them to win. You are also night immune.

Serial Killer - Kill someone each night, and you win only with the Survivor and roles like it. You are also night immune, and will kill a single roleblocker who targets you.

So, what do you think of this? Should this be added on the forums? to much like TMM Troll or not?

-Forum/New Genre

-No physical movement

-Actual strategic play

-More complex roles

-Much more tense moments

-No annoying memes

-No Pewdiepie songs

-Not an overused genre

-Not as much raging 8 year olds

-Most likely no immature players

-No shallow gameplay

-No extreme grinding

-No butthurt fans

-No Radio/3x Role Chance/etc beggars

Yes, ask someone else. There's even more reasons than this.
